his name is Justin turner and after reading his thread it sounds like he will be getting an offer from OSU.
Torrence, herring and Turner rb/c, junior. 3 supposedly great RB'S on the same team  and Herring the only one mentioned on the list of NEO INLAND DISTRICT. A few other surprises that OSU likes but, these clowns don't |

Word has it that Turner is looking at OSU & scUM, leaning towards scUM. Massillon fans love JT. The kid's awsome but didn't get as much PT this year due to DT.

Let's go ahead and meet this one head-on...you've all heard the rumors by now.
Too much information rolling around right now...none of it has been confirmed.
Smoke? Yes. Fire? Not yet.
This thread is locked until we get something concrete from a legit source. When there is something concrete to report, we'll open it up...

In the Aundre Dean article, Dean's coach says tOSU is waiting to see what happens with Devoe, but Coach Stacey says as far as he knows Devoe is still committed and will sign with the Buckeyes.

TORRENCE HASN?T VISITED
Massillon tailback DeVoe Torrence verbally committed to Ohio State before the high school season and well before he transferred there from Canton South.
One of the state?s most recruited players, Torrence has not taken an official visit to OSU. That isn?t necessarily unusual, but by now in-state recruits who have verbally committed to OSU almost always have taken an official visit. That tells us something isn?t right with Torrence ending up at Ohio State.
OSU jumped on Texas running back Aundre Dean late in the process. OSU had planned to sign one running back in this class. Dean rushed for more than 2,000 yards this season and has close to 6,000 in his career. He is 6-foot-1, 210 pounds. Torrence is 6-2, 215. Dean originally committed to UCLA, but is taking a second look after the Bruins fired Head Coach Karl Dorrell.
Dean hasn?t scheduled an official visit to OSU, not unusual for an out-of-state recruit.
Perhaps Torrence is better suited at Michigan in Rodriguez?s spread offense. Torrence excelled in the spread at Canton South but struggled, at times, running out of the I-formation at Massillon.

But one player who made a verbal commitment may have to go shopping for another school. Massillon's Devoe Torrence, the top running back in Ohio, has had several off-field incidents, putting his future with the Buckeyes in jeopardy.
"I'll be surprised if he's in this class," said Duane Long, recruiting analyst for Bucknuts.com.

Here is the final confirmation...this thread will remain locked until the dust settles.
Canton
Ohio State pull scholarship offer to DeVoe Torrence
Wednesday, January 30, 2008
By Todd Porter
REPOSITORY SPORTS WRITER
COLUMBUS Stark County football will be on the outside looking in when Ohio State announces its 2008 recruiting class a week from today.
The Buckeyes have pulled their full-ride scholarship offer to Massillon running back DeVoe Torrence, a source within OSU's program told The Repository on Tuesday night. Sources close to OSU's program confirmed the offer had been pulled.
Torrence lost his scholarship for off-the-field issues which may include academic problems, sources said. The Repository first reported earlier this month that one of Ohio's top recruits had not scheduled an official visit to Ohio State.
A message left for Torrence, considered one of the state's top prospects, was not returned. His voice mail box was full, but Torrence also did not respond to a text message sent to his cell phone.
Massillon head coach Tom Stacy declined comment earlier this week on Torrence's future. All scholarship offers include character and academic provisions which give schools the right to pull offers if not met.
This will be the first time in at least 15 years a Stark County player has not signed a scholarship offer with the Buckeyes.
