It was at a preseason scrimmage or maybe the season opener that Bill Greene first saw Ahmad Wagner play.
Wagner then was a 6-foot-4 senior basketball star who was playing his first season of football for Wayne High School in Huber Heights, Ohio.
“He was so raw,” recalled Greene, a Scout.com analyst and recruiting guru for that state. “He didn’t know what he was doing, but at 6-4, 220 pounds, he could really run.”
Fast forward to the state championship game just a few months later and Greene saw much more than a big, fast player.
