Todd's biggest problem, as has already been mentioned here, is that he goes after a few kids from Franklin County, a few from D4 in small-town Ohio, and occasionally a kid from Cincinnati or out of state. Seems like every year half the class is from Central Ohio. Would it kill him to even go up to the Cleveland area? There's some good programs up there that put out kids left and right. Ignatius, Walsh, Ed's, etc. If they're good enough for Georgia Tech, Vanderbilt, Virginia, Notre Dame, Louisville, Coastal Carolina, NC State, Birmingham Southern, and Oklahoma State (and heck, half the MAC, because OSU is on par with the upper MAC schools lately) then they're good enough for Bob Todd to try and give them a look if he can be bothered away from his gardening and yearly trips to Hawaii.

Sure, he will hit on some good Ohio players but he's missing on a lot more, while plenty of talented kids that couldn't get a whiff are heading off to better programs in and out of state.

Well said. Thank you.
