vBookie Event: Sutton to get 100 yards (College Football)
Sutton said he isn't bitter that he'll be wearing a visiting uniform, thinking he may have turned down Ohio State even if they had recruited him sooner.

The kid acts like OSU made an obvious mistake, but the truth is he was under sized, the #59 rated RB by scout and the ONLY two teams who did give him an offer were NU and Illinois.
At the college level it is all about size and speed. Every year there are probably 100 kids who go to that level who are undersized. One or two make it big (Jack Tatum comes to mind). Good for Sutton and I understand why he is miffed, but I am also glad OSU is not taking these long shots.

He might say that we slighted him, but the fact is that he was a scUM fan. Therefore, he probably wouldn't have gone here if both scUM and tOSU recruited him. He should feel just as slighted by scUM, and we all saw how well he did against them.
