At Camp at OSU this weekend, Tanner had the best play w/ an athletic interception.
 
Nike Combine Overview from Columbus, OH

Ron Tanner, Columbus Eastmoor, was another strong safety-type, with the ability to play man coverage. Tanner had several strong battles with tight end Jamare Mills, and came out on top most of the time, using his size and strength to his advantage.

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The Nike Football Training Camp was held on Saturday at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center on the Ohio State University campus. The camp drew about 300 participants, including some of the top prospects in the Midwest.

Defensive backs shine
Arguably the top two safety prospects in the Midwest worked out at Ohio State. Ron Tanner (Columbus, Ohio/Eastmoor) and Eilar Hardy (Pickerington, Ohio/Central) showed why they are ranked so highly. Tanner looked a shade faster and seemed to have slightly better coverage skills than Hardy. On the other hand, Hardy is a bit taller and seems to have slightly better range. Both are instinctive and constantly around the ball.
 
The pro-OSU crowd at the announcement is stunned!

But oh wait, there appears to be some kind of mix-up...

Yeah that's right of course it was a joke, Tanner quickly removes the UM hat and replaces it with an OSU version, to the laughter of the crowd. In fact, Michigan didn't even make his final five, which begs the question why a UM hat was even there in the first place!

He did however mention the Wolverines as being under consideration, which they were. Tanner had made it up to Ann Arbor for an unofficial and seemed to enjoy himself, but in the end it was always going to be Ohio State.

Unfortunately for Ron he will regret not keeping that Michigan hat on....
