One Heck of a Class

Seeing these numbers so early and the level of talent being as good as the best of Tressel, 2002 and 2008, is remarkable. At the top of the class is Gateway High School Linebacker Dorian Bell, rated as one of the best in the country. But right behind him is the eighth best cornerback in the country from the same high school program in Monroeville Pennsylvania, Corey Brown.
