Where they're all close enough for Brian Hartline to happen to stumble upon? I'd imagine everyone who's for the Buckeyes would also approveI'd be fine with that, if it ensures a number of OSU commits

Baby Gronk Commits to Ohio State; Had Deion Sanders' Colorado, More in Top 30 Schools
If you thought Baby Gronk had gone away after his 15 minutes ended, get ready to remember his name when he suits up for Ohio State in 2031.Baby Gronk, whose real name is Madden San Miguel, announced on Friday he has committed to the Buckeyes.
The announcement comes after Baby Gronk listed his top 30 schools earlier this week, which featured virtually every marquee program in the country, including Colorado, Alabama, Georgia, USC, LSU and Michigan.
It was then revealed Baby Gronk was committing to Oklahoma. Five days later, it was revealed he decommitted from the Sooners.
In December alone, Baby Gronk announced plans to commit to Texas A&M and Missouri.
Jake San Miguel, Madden's father, told The Athletic's Ari Wasserman in June 2023 his son had "one real offer" from Arizona that was a verbal offer. He also said his son isn't allowed to commit to until he gets to seventh grade, at the earliest.

Ohio State is the fifth team in Baby Gronk's top 30 he has committed to. If history is a guide, the Buckeyes won't be the last team he's committed to by the time he gets to seventh grade.
Who is 'Baby Gronk'? The father of the social media sensation shares his plan

Who is ‘Baby Gronk’? The father of the social media sensation shares his plan
Jake San Miguel rented a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van and is currently doing what so many other fathers are doing this month. He’s driving his son around the country, from college town to college town, for unofficial visits and to participate in youth instructional football camps. On Wednesday evening, he was in Lafayette, Ind., on his way to Ohio State.
But nothing about what San Miguel is doing is like other football parents. San Miguel’s kid is “Baby Gronk.”
For those who are unaware, Baby Gronk is a social media sensation with more than 315,000 followers. He is a 10-year-old who is supposedly the next big thing in college football recruiting. He’s considerably bigger and weighs more than most kids his age and uses his large frame to dominate his competition, leading his followers to believe college football programs are already interested in seriously recruiting him. If you look through his social media page, you’ll see Baby Gronk — real name Madden San Miguel — posing with celebrities and partaking in photo shoots at Power 5 football programs.

Baby Gronk's dad claims his critics are 'jealous' of his son's fame
'Baby Gronk,' a.k.a Madden San Miguel, has risen to fame overnight as a 10-year-old youth football prospect due to his dad's marketing skills and is being tipped as college football's 'next big thing.'
Baby Gronk's dad slams his critics and claims they're only 'jealous' of his son's rise to fame at the age of 10: 'The goal is to be a millionaire by senior year, with football or without football'

I read somewhere that the dad has essentially been stalking the Gronk brothers in hopes of getting Rob to do some press runs with him. But all the brothers just think the dad is a weird loser who’s pimping out his kid. From the article:

When is the next big date we should be looking forward to for some potential BOOMs. I am having commitment withdrawals lol. Maybe just completely spoiled with how this recruiting class is coming together as well.

From what I can remember, Justin Hill is committing around July 4th, Jordan Davidson and Bo Jackson around the end of June/early July. That's all I've seen so far, I don't think anything sooner as most are still waiting to hit the camp circuit

Too soon old, too late smart
Kinda waiting for the WR dominoes to start falling. Seems like there's more of an ebb and flow to the affections of the WRs that are on top of the list. The talking heads (BK, etc) aren't really saying much, other than espousing Harline's rep as an awesome recruiter, and of course Brian cannot mention much (still a NCAA rule?) about what's what. Still waiting for some great OL news (Sanders), plus a couple of additional, and for Coach J to buttonhole a couple of starters in waiting. Of course I'm hitting on what looks to me at least to be the holes in this class. With all the seniors or not going pro next year, there should be a bunch of moola in the NIL coffers. Unless that was a one-time NIL drive, and the bucket has not been refilled. PS, anyone given any thought to the 'revenue sharing'? If comes about, does that not put the onus back on the schools to distribute, etc?
And as well, make the outside funding (NIL) unnecessary? Would think that revenue sharing would give a huge advantage to the top schools, in terms of available funding. Don't believe a Fresno State could match up with an Ohio State in quantity of fundings. Food for thought. Go Bucks!

What's the read on Ffrench? Seemed like a potential boom enough where some said we were so far out ahead he wasn't going to use an official on OSU. Now we are not in his top 3??? Recruiting games or did we not offer enough NIL?

He's a FL WR, there will ALWAYS be games, twists and turns with them! Even if committed, he'd still take visits(since many schools pay to take visits). I can see OSU still landing Ffrench, but this battle will go into December. And OSU is definitely in his top 3, the writer wants to sell subs, so he took Ffrench's words out of context. Ffrench was interviewed again and said OSU is easily at the top of his list and he'll take an official to OSU in the fall for a game and an unofficial this summer. And I don't think NIL can be an excuse for OSU in recruiting ever again, the collectives aren't playing around after the 3rd straight scUM loss and watching them hoist the trophy
I'll put any further talk on specific recruits, in their threads, as to not cause confusion. And keep this thread for just general recruiting.
