scholarship linemen. The last two classes, we���ve recruited 10. He���s a physical player at the point of attack from the Chicago-land area. We���re really excited that he got here early.��� Tom Lemming Of Prep Football Report: ���I���ve watched him play for the last three years ��� he lives in the Chicago area ��� and he���s done nothing but get better. He���s technically sound and strong, and he plays the game with a chip on his shoulder. He doesn���t like for people to beat him. I think he���ll play guard at Michigan and be a three-year starter.��� Career Totals: Three-year starter at left tackle and defensive tackle/end. Senior Season: Started at left tackle and along the defensive line for a St. Francis team that went 5-4 and failed to qualify for the state playoffs ��� Spearheaded an offensive rushing attack that averaged 133.4 yards per game compared to just 70.6 yards passing ��� Named to the MaxPreps.com Medium School All-American Team ��� Selected first-team all-state by the Chicago Tribune and first-team Class 5A all-state by the state���s coaches. Junior Season: Held the starting left tackle post and starting defensive tackle job for a Spartans squad that went 8-3, advancing to the second round of the Class 5A state playoffs ��� Voted first-team all-state along the offensive line. Sophomore Season: Began his starting career at left tackle, and saw time at defensive tackle and end for a St. Francis team that went 6-4 and qualified for the Class 5A state playoffs, before losing in the first round. All-Star Games And Camps: Selected for the Semper Fi All-American Bowl, but did not participate ��� Attended summer football camps at Michigan State and Notre Dame in 2011. Other Sports: Nothing. High School GPA: 3.4. Planned Major: Political science or business. Favorite Michigan Athlete: Steve Hutchinson. Favorite Pro Player: Miami Dolphins left tackle Jake Long and Cleveland Browns left tackle Joe Thomas. Other Schools Considered: Michigan State, Stanford and Alabama. Date Of Official Visit To Michigan: Dec. 14, 2012. Why Bosch Chose Michigan: ���It was the complete package ��� the best facilities and, coaches, and the best atmosphere of any stadium I visited. And the academic opportunity is fantastic.��� Head Coach���s Comments: ���He has a tenacity that normally you see in a defensive player,��� St. Francis coach Greg Purnell said. ���He has a tremendous down block. When he locks onto someone he doesn���t let him go no matter. You see him on film and he���s finishing a block, driving the kid out of bounds, and we���re down the field scoring a touchdown.���
