Athletes who are very athletic and yet very unselfish. So glad that OHIO has Williams and maybe within the next several months a few more. Certainly will change things for Frank and staff. Tomorrow I only hope that the trophy will come to SEO. I have been here 42 years and this will be a first no matter what happens.

But then, I don't think someone of that caliber would consider OHIO, even with his Dad here. Just wishful thinking.

I student taught at AHS and have enjoyed this experience for them. I think this year's seniors would have been in early elementary school or younger at the time though.

No Solich as coach of Ohio, no Joe Burrows and Trae Williams at Athens High School as their fathers are on Solich's staff. Just sayin'...... Again, congratulations to all of them and good luck!

We're going to head up the road to cheer on the Bulldogs over at OSU in an hour. Of course it's a long shot for him to be so highly touted and choose Ohio, but I'm not so sure he'll be a lock to stick with the Buckeyes either. He's virtually assured to sit until his 4th year (RS JR) minimum if he goes there, short of a situation where multiple guys go down in front of him. Would be a shame to see another potential star rot on the sidelines, but we gotta remember it's his choice not ours. GOOD LUCK ATHENS!

Wow, what a year for Joe Burrow and Athens High School. But so very sorry to hear that Joe is heading up north for his college career instead of trying to bring success and national attention to his hometown. I still sense an attitude in this thread that some fans still believe that Ohio would naturally be unappealing to a top recruit. Yet for many years now, we have seen that if you are an excellent player in the MAC, you definitely can go on to play on Sunday. And not only do you play, but you can win Super Bowls, be All-Pro, be Player-of-the Year in the NFL, and even be the Number One draft pick in the NFL Draft. It was just a few years ago that eight, count-em eight, MAC alums started at least one game at QB in the same season for NFL teams. Isn't that something for a league that is perceived as being for those not worthy of playing with the best. Despite what MAC alums have done in the NFL, everyone still thinks that if you want to eventually play on Sunday that you must go to a Big 5 Conference school.

In spite of everything you just mentioned the truth is FBS operates under Jim Crow and no matter how good a MAC team is they will never ever be allowed to played for a championship. I know it, you know, Joe Burrow knows it. For some kids not having a chance to play for a national title isn't a deal breaker, for Joe Burrow it is. If I had to guess, I would imagine part of him is disappointed that he couldn't achieve his goal with the home team and his Dad on the sidelines. But, it is what it is. MY STATE. MY TEAM.

Will he see the field with Barrett, Cardale Jones, Torrance Gibson, Stephen Collier (and perhaps Braxton Miller for one more year) is another story.

I grew up in Athens. In the early 90's Ohio had a new coach, and Athens got a new starting quarter back for one year in Bubba Lichtenberg. We went to the state play offs that year (my freshman year). In the three years that followed, I'm pretty sure that Athens won 1 game. From what I have heard, after this year there is a good chance that Athens could return to that early 90's form (post Lichtenberg). Great game by the Bulldogs last night!

If you've watched this young man at all, how can you honestly make such a comment? On what do you base such an opinion? Do you honestly think they will bench JT Barrett in favor of Burrow? No chance. He could be Joe Montana and he still isn't going to jump such a highly successful and respected incumbent. Mcbin is right that it would appear he won't be the guy for his first 3 years, and meant no offense to Burrow whatsoever. That being said, he very easily could get 2 years as the starter, which is not a terrible situation.
