Actually, I don't agree with that. I don't think the final determination will be based on a final visit to his high school by a couple of coaches. What are they going to learn about Sam from that visit that they don't already know having been in to see him before and having seen his film? The way I see it, if he does come to camp, then that shows me that he is serious about getting an offer from OSU. I think that is when the final determination will likely be made...the question is whether or not Sam will wait that long. |

There also may be some questions about Sam being as open to playing somewhere other than RB as he has indicated...

Was this written before or after he claimed a USC offer? It says April 16th. |

I didn't realize they had already been in to see him before. All I can think of is to assess whether he wants an offer for the sake of an offer, or whether he is really interested in OSU. But you're right. Camp might be a better place to assess that.

here's something I don't understand
after reading the rivals story about McGuffie a few days ago, why isn't Michigan more excited over the fact that Darryl Stonum is recruiting McGuffie to Michigan? To me Stonum reminds me of USC's Steve Smith. I think he'll make a bigger impact at Michigan than a McGuffie would.

Stonum hasn't leapt defenders in a single bound for all to see; it's natural to be more buzzed about the guy everyone in the world has seen on Youtube. Also, Stonum's said stuff like "I'm probably going to Michigan" earlier, so that note could be interpreted as things Michigan fans already expect to happen. |
