I love that attitude. A competitor wants to get on the field any way they can.

I agree. I suppose we'll see how bad he really wants to be a Trojan. Can't knock a kid for wanting to choose the best situation for himself and clearly Ohio State presents the better chance to play right away. While I'd love every future recruit to bleed scarlet and gray I realize these players are thinking of themselves and their future.

I have no problem with a kid wanting to play as a freshman. If he is good enough he should get to play and will in JT's system. A freshman expecting to start as a freshman on the other hand is a little absurd. I know he hasn't said anything like that but in college every player on the team was the best on their high school teams and someone will inevitably have to sit some.

He just sounds like an 18 year old young man who is getting overwhelmed with the constant intrusions that go along with recruiting, as well as the confusion that may accompany listening to all of the recruiters. It must be very difficult to handle.


I'd love for him to come to Columbus.

There's no doubt that he would sit for a year and probably more at USC.

I bet that's not what they are telling him though.

This one may turn out to be more interesting than I thought.

He's not going to WVU. If he wants to play in big games WVU is OUT.

I can't imagine him leaving with Bush. He will haev a year as athe feature back (unless Gwaltney were to pass him) and then Gwaltney would take over full time.

USC also has Hershal Dennis who I believe is only a sophmore also. This sounds like it is just heating up.

Is Hershel Dennis still on the team? He had some serious charges dropped on him last summer.
