Per Bill K. - Bill thinks tOSU chances are slim. He believes that Boyd will stay in the south.

Shocking...

No longer an option unless he hires Butch.

No offense to Butch.. cause im sure he's a great guy.. and knows what he's doing.. but were the most recent OSU teams faster than OSU teams 4-5 yrs ago? 10 yrs ago? I saw nothing to suggest that Butch made huge improvement in the speed of the average Ohio St. football player..

And as pointed out.. he's not with the team.. so i dont think that is a factor with Boyd

I can't speak to the football team, but one of my players is working privately with Butch and has had nothing but favorable things to say about the speed work they are doing. We'll see what kind of improvements he has made when he is tested again by USA Rugby.

Back to Boyd...50-50...

I just wrote a premium story on Boyd. I think everyone is going to want to read what he had to say.

Wow I completely forgot about that...anyways, I think Jheranie can get even faster, which is scary.

Talks about receiving the Ohio State offer. Mentions the fact that Terrelle Pryor is a Buckeye and that "the offense is probably going to be set." Will reveal a top 10 this summer and says Ohio State will definitely be in that list.

Can anyone verify he intends on visiting Columbus at one of the summer camps? Chance meeting with Terrelle??

In the Rivals article I posted above, he mentioned that he would like to take an official to Ohio State.

I told his QB to text me if anything develops..

And he did today. Pretty much confirmed all of that stuff that has been posted, like Hazel visiting and Ohio State making the final cut. And also he said he has been talking about Ohio State a lot the past week, and really wants to take a visit. From what I gathered, he was blown away by JT.

Well lets hope that JT is on this one personally...He would be up there with Bell and Berry as the best OOS player in the class if we could land him...

BTW thanks for the update...
