Highlights from Seantrel Henderson’s Junior Year
Although both ESPN.com and the Columbus Dispatch are reporting that top ranked recruit Seantrel Henderson will announce his college choice tomorrow (Wed.), I’m not counting on it. Sports Illustrated’s, Kristen Dryer is reporting that Henderson’s father, Sean Henderson has said that the younger Henderson hasn’t made a decision and “isn’t committing to any time tables.”
At this point, Henderson has narrowed his choices down to Ohio State, USC, Notre Dame, Miami, Florida and possibly Minnesota. Rumors are flying that it is between Ohio State and USC but the source I spoke to said, “The kid [Henderson] has no idea where he’s going, not a clue.”
Although Ohio State and USC have been mentioned as his top two, Henderson just visited Miami this weekend so as of just a few days ago, he is apparently still weighing his options.
No question we could use a linemen like Henderson. The kid is 6′8, 300+ pounds and could help provide the pass protection Pryor needs to make things happen. Scout.com has him ranked No. 1 and Rivals.com No. 2.
You will remember though that our last No. 1 recruit also made us wait. By the end of the 2008 signing day, we were hearing the same sort of thing from Pryor’s father that we are hearing now from Henderson’s.
If you haven’t watched the video above yet, be sure to check it out.
A) The kid is huge
B) Nobody is getting past him,
C) He opens gaping holes for the running backs. Something we can really use
And those are his junior year highlights!

My bias gut tells me he will be a Buckeye!
He will pick Miami or OSU. My guess at the moment will be Miami. He will be woo’d by the talent that is already signed to play there. I hope I am wrong.
I don’t think we’re going to know this one until he signs his letter. A newspaper out of Minn. was reporting this morning that he’s going to USC.
I’m hearing now that he’s planning on announcing during the 5:00 hour in order to get coverage from the sports channels.
At this point, I’m not counting out Ohio State. No question we can use him.
Dispatch is also reporting that Matt James is going to ND. What a mistake. I’m not convinced Kelly is going to be any better then Weis. I’m sure Kelly has been wooing James for a long time though as another Cincy local.
