I agree with Mili on how kids are with the flavor of the month. While I was a hard core Buckeye from the beginning, I also had other teams I liked as a kid. UCLA was one of them, except when they played
OSU of course. I think a lot of it depends on the home they are in. (My 7 year old and 9 year old really have no choice to be Buckeye fans growing up un my house.) And when it comes to bandwagon fans, many adults are just as bad as kids.
Hopefully with JT, kids today will grow up dreaming of playing in the shoe, like it was back when Woody was the coach.
