As I posted elsewhere, I really think Matt Leinart's decision could be a huge boost to the buckeyes. With him back at the helm, not only are they going to be more hyped at #1 (to go with their cupcake schedule next year) than this year, but also more deserving of it. They are almost a lock to play in the title game if he returns, whereas if he leaves they will be good but would not be as heavy of favorites to win a 3rd straight NC (good chance of making it that far, bad chance of winning).
Originally Leinart was going to decide Thursday, giving gwaltney two days to decide. Now it might be late tonight, leaving Gwaltney with less than 18 total hours (including sleeping time) to decide whether USC is right for him.

I read somewhere (wish I could find the article) today he might, but he is not sure. Shocking that he is unsure, I know.
Edit: Found it: “There is a possibility I will commit during the game on Saturday. I am not 100% sure just yet because I have been changing my mind every day.” - Jason Gwaltney

i think that was written before the next article that stated he was waiting till wednesday. or maybe im just tired.
edit: from todays dispatch (and 2 pages back)
Running back Jason Gwaltney of Brooklyn, N.Y., had planned to announce his choice of Ohio State or USC on Saturday but pushed it back to Wednesday.

Whoops, I guess I didn't finish my thought process. Yeah, you're right guys, he's deciding Wednesday.
I meant the lack of time to deal with the Leinart departure (if it happens) could be a reason why he is delaying.
Just throwing out pure speculation since nothing solid seems to be viable for this recruit at the moment.

Ah I gotcha, I am not so sure the Dispatch is as up to date as usarmy.scout.com, but either way I wouldn't count on a commitment tomorrow anyway. | |
