Interesting follow up question would have been, how many of those 'silent commits' actually stick

Someone actually asked him who some of our silent verbals were, I think meaning those that went elsewhere, but Conley responded with Pace and Katzenmoyer. |

Was Jarrett a SILENT?
Again, will all due respect to my friend, a silent verbal is as good as the paper it is written on.

Conley was pretty forthcoming w/ his answers, I both respect and enjoyed that. From all the scuttlebut that has been rattling around out there it seems fairly clear-even before Conley's comment-that Jarrett had an overnight change of heart before signing day, and did in fact give a verbal to the coaches visiting him in New Jersey that weekend. What I found interesting was Conley's response about Davis-it sounds like Fred had the staff fooled pretty good as well. I feel bad for Coach Rios-he is obviously a Buckeye/Tressel supporter-but neither of his 2 superstar recruits became Buckeyes after looking to be a cinch to do so, though for very different reasons, obviously.

I beg to differ here.
Neither played football as a Buckeye, that's true.
One, however, still is a Buckeye. May he rest in peace. |

Look at it this way, if something doesn't work out(admissions etc.) and the recruit needs to look elsewhere, there is no stigma attached. If Dajuan was a silent last year it would have looked to everyone like he just ended up choosing N.C.st over O.S.U. and Fla. on signing day.
