McClover

Some of you might have heard rumors (BSB, HH) about McClover wanting to transfer to tOSU- here is his response

McClover

Though he hasn't played a game, McClover has already learned about life in the spotlight. A Web site devoted to Ohio State football recently reported that McClover was unhappy at Auburn and wanted to transfer to Ohio State.

"I saw that, and it's not true," McClover said. "I don't know where that came from. I haven't ever said that. I'm thankful I made the decision to come here. It was the right decision for me."

Auburn is facing some big time turmoil, not the least of which is a potential loss of its accreditation. Auburn needs to thank Colorado for keeping it off the front pages. If he is happy, then I am happy for him. Now, where did that rumor start?

Now, where did that rumor start?

I first saw it mentioned by HH on BN and then Mark Rea from BSB discussed it in an article

[BuckNutty]

You would think Rea ran it by Kurelic before he decided to put it an article. I doubt he would write about a rumor without it having some substance. It's funny that he wrote about it shortly after HH's post.

Mcclover, IMO, said the only thing he could say in response to that rumor. I think there's plenty of truth to it, but he obviously wouldn't be able to admit it.

I think that a lot of Auburn players will beceom increasingly upset with that program - pre-season #1 team folds their tent early; the AD and trustees try to back-stab the head coach; possible loss of accreditation; mediocre recruiting season (except for Hart ); and the list goes on.... Auburn could be in a shambles in a year or two.

Speaking of HH, does he post over here yet?

[Oh8ch]

I agree with Holic - McClover was giving the same sort of answer a coach gives after a secret interview for a new job - "I am happy at Hometown U and have no thoughts of leaving."

How Hart was convinced to join that environment is still a mystery to me.

LordJeffBuck, to answer your question. No. I have not seen HelpingHand over here, unless he took a different moniker. I don't think that is the case (another moniker) either though.

[3yardsandacloud]

Wow, that's impressive. Now I see that Helpinghand is our newest member. Talk about timing.

[Helpinghand]

Hey all....

My ears were burning!

[BuckNutty]

Welcome aboard, HH. Nice to see you here

[Helpinghand]

Well, since we are talking about McClover, his Dad called me and his old football coach ( father of a current Buckeye), asking us to talk to Conley about a possible transfer.

[3yardsandacloud]

Welcome aboard HH. I'm guessing someone invited you ... or else that's one of the freakiest coincidences of timing I've ever witnessed.

[Helpinghand]

Yes, I was just told about this a few minutes ago...

[Helpinghand]

Thanks BuckNutty!!!
