Favors Ohio State slightly over UCLA, Iowa, Arizona and Minnesota. Speaks highly of our tradition, staff, fan support and player development.

A very positive turn of events, II RC not long ago he stated Minnesota as his favorite.

I think there are some very slight concerns (just from reading Wallace's free update) but nothing that a solid senior year and decent test score can't help. I wouldn't expect it to be an issue come NLOID.

Goebel and Mobley would be a nice duo to add to Nathan Williams. Anything beyond that (Hale) would be icing on the cake. We know that Mobley and Goebel have been in contact and have talked about OSU.

It seem like Mobley's pattern has been this: Minny leads when a Minny site does the interview, and OSU leads when an OSU site does the interview. Now, with a "neutral" interviewer (Allen Wallace), OSU leads - a good sign.

By Kevin Noon of BuckeyeGrove...Willie is trying to turn his focus to his HS football team. Will visit OSU in August and denies a favorite but says OSU are in good shape with him.

I guess the only thing to take away from these last few days of Willie's comments, rather than a true leader... is that we sit very well with him right now and will be in it until the end.

I think the biggest positive is that he is talking about taking an official to OSU for the Wisconsin game and that is when Brewster and The Crew are planning on coming in as well.

Crabtree some how lists Iowa as the team to beat and UCLA as the darkhorse for Mobley. But also in this he has us as the team to beat for Floyd with Notre Dame the darkhorse... sooo...

I will cite the free source for that info...from the article header:

Eden Prairie, Minn., defensive lineman Willie Mobley is well aware of the commitment of Garrett Goebel to OSU and the Buckeyes' verbal commitment situation overall. So will Mobley soon jump aboard? Mobley talks about Ohio State, his contact with a number of the Buckeyes' commitments, his Tuesday conversation with Terrelle Pryor and more.

FWIW, BK stated this in his comments in the free board at BN as well.

What's your take on this Wade, have you heard of these two speaking before? Do you know if they have a prior history from camps somewhere?

Pryor giving off OSU-vibes to other non-committed recruits is nothing new...however him doing that to Mobley is.
