Ohio State fans will remember Walter Young. He was the guy who caught the touchdown pass in the endzone during the overtime game at Illinois that inexplicably got overturned and called an incomplete pass. Thanks to the refs Ohio State had a shot to play for the national championship. Illinois outplayed Ohio State and got hosed on more than one call. Oh well, can't tell I am from Illinois can you?

On to Walter Young. He is a tall (6'4") possession type who seemed to catch everything thrown his way last year. Not a burner, but a big, high jumper type who gets good position (especially on sideline passes and in the endzone) and makes the tough 3rd down receptions. He is a converted quarterback, so he could be used on reverses and receiver passes.

I like him alot better then his more highly touted teammate Brandon Lloyd.
