I am sitting here just trying to put it all together and it is just so mind boggling.
Lets not forget we are still after Eric Wallace who looks to be a stud in the making as well. He could be one of those 3-4 year players that all great teams need for experience. Then the last of the 08' guys that we will try and bring in with Roe/Gates/Crater. At this point I would think that Crater would be the main target and if we do not bring in another in the 07' class we would bring in Gates IMO. At this point I think that we get Wallace sometime after he takes all his visits. I also think that we have a better shot at Gates at this point in time than with Roe. Either way the fun of seeing some of these magnificent recruits gets under way in less than 20 hrs. ![]() |

Just a reminder that Nov. 8 is the start of the early signing period.......

Those future rosters look ridiculous. We could have a team that never leaves the AP top 5 for the next 5 seasons, at least.
Matta is building the kind of empire that's going to make folks in Durham, Chapel Hill and Lexington insane with envy. |

As I'm catching up, reading these posts, I am reminded on the t.v. in the other room that Ohio State is #1 yet again this week in the BCS. You could substitute Tressel for Matta, and L.A., Austin, and Ann Arbor for those cities, and we are starting to see the early stages of a run by a single school in both sports that has never happened. Very, very fun to follow.

That is very true, and imagine the potential rivalry that would be born. Both schools seem dangerous in both sports for the forseeable future, possibly national title hunt for both, that it may be the Buckeyes and Gators standing in each other's way. Something to keep an eye on for sure. As it stands now, UF is the only one of the trio I can even stomach. With the other 2 fading fast, they could capitalize in a big way very soon.

In '06 this roster is one that strives to be as good as Duke's 2006 roster, within a year or two it is better than their current roster (which shows 5 - 5* and 5 - 4* players right now).
In the Big 10 based on these ratings I'd guess only Michigan State is keeping pace. Quite simply amazing stuff, amazing times. |

Dispatch
OHIO STATE MEN?S BASKETBALL 7-foot forward will headline class of recruits Wednesday, November 08, 2006 Bob Baptist THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH It isn?t studded with the number of stars that last year?s was, but another top-10 recruiting class is expected to sign today with the Ohio State men?s basketball team. Seven-foot power forward Kosta Koufos of Canton GlenOak is the gem of a fourplayer class that includes 6-8 center Dallas Lauderdale of Solon, 6-6 guard Jon Diebler of Upper Sandusky and 6-6 guard Evan Turner of Chicago. The class is rated No. 7 nationally and third in the Big Ten, behind Purdue?s and Michigan State?s, by the Scout.com recruiting Web site. Koufos, a 260-pounder with the size to play inside and the touch to score outside, is rated No. 12 in his class by the Recruiting Services Consensus Index, which averages six rankings services. Koufos attended the Buckeyes? exhibition win over Walsh on Sunday in Value City Arena and said he liked what he saw of the faster-paced offense run by his future teammates. "I feel like I can really fit in when I come here," he said. The other three recruits rank between 50 and 75 in the RSCI and bring specific strengths valued by Matta. Lauderdale is a long-armed rebounder, Diebler a prolific three-point shooter and Turner an athlete whose quickness could be an asset in transition and on defense. Matta cannot comment on recruits until he receives their signed letters. The fall signing period lasts through next Wednesday. Ohio State could add a fifth player if 6-6 forward Eric Wallace of Kernersville, N.C., a senior at Hargrave Military Academy in Virginia, decides to sign. Wallace is, like Turner, an athletic wing, but at 215 pounds is 30 pounds heavier than Turner. Wallace, who rescinded a commitment to Virginia in September and visited Ohio State in October, was believed to be on the verge of making a commitment late last night. He has not yet scheduled visits to Florida or Louisville, the only other schools he is considering. |
