I dont like the comments from this ESPN guy.. he acts like half our class is filled with "questionable" players.. when in reality it's only 2-3..
And I cant disagree.. if Bellamy, Homan, and Boren hailed from Missouri or some place.. im not sure their game film or measurables would get them much of a look from Ohio St...

Really not sure how this can be said about Bellamy...who showed up at
OSU's camp and earned his offer by impressing the coaches...especially at a point when scholarships appear to be tight.
The other two, fine...no argument from me there (and I don't really have an issue with it, either).
As for how ESPN views
OSU's class at this point...it's not a function of Homan, Boren and Bellamy (as 2 of those 3 are in their top 150 watch list...and therefore top 500). The 'problem' or whatever is that they see Klein, Whiting and Fields as outside of the top 500 when by most sane accounts all should be in the mix somewhere...and probably in the top half.
In short...they see Klein, Whiting and Fields as the 'questionable' players you speak of...
anyway, not that it actually matters in the end...but still kind of a head-scratcher how groups of recruiting analysts or whatever can look at basically all the same available data and have their opinions vary so widely on individual guys. Weird....
