2017 SS/FS Michael Ballentine Mentor HS - Ohio commit

Posted: 1/31/2017 12:09:21 AM

Per twitter, he flips from Grand Valley State. He's 6'0" 187, but he hits like an OLB.

Not sure with these late additions who will be scholarship and who is preferred walkon.

He should be brought up on attempted murder charges. Mentor plays a great schedule, he should gain a step and play safety. Devante is going to be a manchild, he may have to wait for Hagan to leave. We need corners more than safeties, so I wonder if this is a grey shirt.

Nobody despises to lose more than I do. That's got me into trouble over the years, but it also made a man of mediocre ability into a pretty good coach. Woody Hayes

Wow...impressive film. Hard to believe a DB who hits like that from one of the top programs in the state could have been going DII. Maybe it's an inch or two here and a tenth of a second there, but what a headhunter.

I agree, Mentor plays the best of the best and he was arguably their best player. He definitely got lost in the sauce.

Why no word on him? He is one of my favorites as well. I don't care about stars on this one.

My guess is he's a preferred walk-on. They are not announced.

So who recruited NE Ohio for the Bobcats-this article says Jesse Williams. We're going to miss Jesse on more wats than one, but I'm looking forward to seeeing who replaces him.
