Guess we better send all of our Ohio kids back, and just recruit from Florida. Better tell Chris, Connor and others not to come, either. I'm not sure where you're getting that b/c they're from Ohio their rating is less meaningful.

Don't get so defensive. I didn't mean that their ratings as Elite 11 were not meaningful because they're from Ohio. I'm from Ohio and am quite proud of the fact. My point is that they all naturally went to their big in-state school; they clearly weren't attracted to tOSU because of its great QB tradition. There is no such thing.
OOS receivers will come to tOSU because of what Chris Carter, Joey Galloway, David Boston, Terry Glenn and others have done to enhance the reputation of tOSU as a school that turns out NFL receivers. OOS RBs, LBs, DBs and linemen will all do the same, thanks to Byars, Smith, George, Vrabel, Winfield, Springs, Pace, Bentley and many, many others.
But no top-notch OOS QB is ever going to come to Columbus until we start scoring points and putting QBs in the NFL. You can stick your head in the sand and pretend it isn't so all you want, but it's the simple, perfectly obvious, truth.
