Pitt and CMU have offered.
I expect UC to follow, but they are already behind the 8 ball on this. Although he went to UC junior day, UC trails Pitt and ND, where there is mutual interest.

 

[swg]

Getting interest from ND, and will attend their junior day along w/ Jarrett Grace.

 

[swg]

Why have we not offered him? Hell, Coombs coached there.

Another speedster in a special class at Colerain, versus Moeller Dukes showed no weakness supporting the run in 2008 playoff game. Bit raw using the sidelines covering wide-outs 7 knowing where he is on the field but he is so athletic making special plays with his raw speed. ***2nd best DB next to Cheunalt in the GMC, looks to be the big-time lock down college are looking for with closing speed only a select handful like #21 has. Another reason why the Card's will be the team to beat coming out of region 4 starts on the defensive side with play makers! 2nd Team All GMC in 2008 & 1st Team All GMC in 2009

Ohio U has offered.

Dukes thinks UC may offer soon. If they and Pitt do, could go down to these two schools.

Impressions from the ND 3/20 Junior Day.


Quote:
Like the other Colerain kids Dukes seems to have a lot of interest in ND. An Irish offer would probably put ND in pretty good shape here.

Quote:
• Chris Dukes (Cincinnati/Colerain) says he has offers from Pittsburgh, Boston College, Toledo, Central Michigan, Bowling Green and Ohio University.

"My top five right now are Michigan, Michigan State, West Virginia, Ohio State and Iowa," said Dukes.




UC not in top five, but his top five haven't offered yet, so...

 

[JasonS]

I don't know why UC hasn't offered him. Speed can't be taught, but technique can. Maybe there is something we are missing. Maybe he told the coaching staff not to bother?

 

[swg]

That could be it. He could be waiting for offers that do not come.

Marshall has offered.

Colorado and BC are looking good so far. Look for Pitt and WV to be in the mix as well.

UC...not so much at this point.
