One of the things I have been thinking about a bit recently is the snowball effect in recruiting and the inter-relationships between recruit's decisions.
For example, I really think that getting Sweat helps our chances with both Pryor and Hale because they see a top recruit from the same general area (Western PA) going to tOSU. For this reason, I think if Pryor commits to tOSU also, it increases our chances with Hale who would see another bigtime guy from his area commiting and be slightly more likely to come to
OSU.
In addition, I think that a commit from Jenkins makes it more likely that Pryor comes here because it further reinforces the fact that this O line class will be special. Similarly, if Pryor hops on board before Jenkins makes his decision, it could have a positive impact on Jenkins who would see further proof that he could be a part of a really special class at
OSU. In particular, this year's offensive class coming together seems to have a lot of great players who want badly to play with other great players.
