CANTON TWP. When Jim Tressel looks at his football calendar, he doesn't view Jan. 1 as New Year's Day. That's the first Wednesday in February.
Signing day is the official start of the 2007 season for Ohio State coaches, and it's also the start of recruiting upcoming high school seniors. It only made sense then that DeVoe Torrence received a text message from the Buckeyes shortly after his older brother Devon faxed in a signed letter of intent Tuesday to play at
OSU.
