Without watching the highlights of the other 10's of thousands recruits, it's tough to say.

So far it looks like the only offer he's gotten is from us. Gotta admit, kid already looks like a stud as a Freshman.

     I agree. He has a high speed motor, more so than his brother. Would be fun to watch two brothers playing on the DL together, both with a lot of potential.

Yeah, that certainly would be cool... although I have a feeling Joey is the sort of talent who will excel and probably leave for the NFL before his senior year.

Nick Bosa is an admitted OSU fan, he helped started getting Joey that way.  Family ties are OSU in their blood lines.
His dad and HS coach said he is better than Joey at this age.
Nick Bosa is a monster, relentless, he will be a Buckeye.
One major site has stated to date, out of a lot of film they saw on defensive players in his class, he is the best they have seen to date, not done growing either.

Nick might be able to keep Joey from leaving after 3 years if Joey has that kind of talent.

     I was thinking the same thing.

Pretty impressive highlights from a freshman playing on the DL. You rarely see freshman making an impact like that on the DL because their bodies have not developed enough to take and dish out the kind of punishment that playing on the DL requires, especially against top flight competition. The kid is going to be a manchild in 2 or 3 years!!

if he stops growing at 6'2", any chance we use him like boren?

Just a little premature to call him the best player in his class. Alot of growing to do for him and his fellow classmates.

Craziest thing to think about is that this kid was in 8th grade last year.  What a freak!

          A rare young talent, indeed.   I hope he chooses to play here, but the schools down there will put a full court press on to keep him in the south.   And though he reportedly loves OSU, there is never any guarantee that one brother will follow the other (e.g., Smith, Heuerman, etc.).   Let's keep our fingers crossed.

one thing to keep in mind about his film is they play as good of overall competition as anyone.

hard to judge a lot of kids film because they are playing teams with nobody close to their talent.

he will be playing tons of kids this year and the next three that end up playing d1 football with many in bcs conferences.

Non stop motor, relentless.  And as you noted, St. Thomas Aquinas plays the best, they face some of the best competition out there.
OSU also offered his junior teammate, a DT.
Nick Bosa is a huge OSU fan, Buckeye.

          Excellent point, as usual.   Thanks, low.

This kid's tackling is outstanding. He breaks down better than 90% of pro players. Even if he doesn't grow he'll be a great player at outside or LB. He's got IT.
