Actually, the real reason why he delayed his decision is to keep this thread going at 100 replies a day so he can break the Taz thread's record.

His dad and uncle want tOSU. I bet they win out on this one.
They want to see him play I bet and flying to Cali every week ain't going to cut it.

lol, he did make a comment about coming to the board.
HEY JASON, how does a couple of Heismans sound. It will never happen at USC. You saw Sanchez throwing the ball. That offense is going from 75% passing to 95% passing.
tOSU has the line, the FB, you could be the last piece of the puzzle.

Gost8- saw your list of our runningbacks. However, Gwaltney's a HB, not a FB, so you didn't need to add Dionte Johnson and Brandon Schnittker to the list (and left out FB Stan White Jr!). Also, I see Anderson Russel playing a Ira Guiliford role, playing safety first and foremost, while being an emergency-use RB if we need him (means that he won't play if we land another RB in this class). He'd be competing with Haw, Pittman, & Wells, and NONE of them have the runningback position pegged for next year. If he can perform like he did in the AA game on the field in front of 105,000 during the fall, I believe he could be the guy to beat for the job.
Ohio State seems like the ideal place for him! We have been a run-first team since Woody coached "3 yards and a cloud of dust", where as USC is a throw first team, even with a gamer like Bush in their backfield. Our bread and butter is the Power-I, which is what JG prefers. If he wants 20+ carries a game, he WILL get it at OSU, whether he likes it or not. If he wants to play right away, OSU doesn't have a proven starter, where as you're sitting the bench at USC, having to depend on not ONE player leaving early after this coming year, but TWO. Haven't even mentioned the location being 1,000+ miles closer to Long Island than L.A. yet! Or the fact that we put players in record numbers in the NFL (14 last year). Or the fact that we're on national tv EVERY week. Or the fact that OSU has had 7 heisman trophys go to our runningbacks.
Jason, YOU are the cog that we have been missing since Clarett left. And you fit just perfectly in this Ohio State machine

I edited out a lot of runningbacks from both rosters and I put icons next to the ones that JG would likely have to beat for the starting role. I wouldn't leave Dionte off the HB list quite yet. Brandon Joe was a FB until he showed he could move the ball.
Love that sig too buckfromscum

Well if he really wanted to play all ends against the middle at this point who's to stop him? Sounds like he may be having a little fun at several groups expense.
"Course if JG is playing 'em all a more strategic move would be to toy with the suitors and then declare for a 4th option as yet unknown.
This is my contribution to breaking the 100 post per day limit on JG.
