You don't actually think his commitment hinges on the outcome of that game, do you?

The outcome of the game probably won't matter, but whom he ends up rooting for will. It's like what I do with people when they are torn on a decision. I flip a coin, and ask them to call it. Then before I show it to them I ask them what they wished for when it was in the air. That is the decision.
People may appear torn, but when you are up against it you find out what you really want. That is what this game will do. He will find out whom he is really rooting for, and that could really make his decision.
Of course if one team really lays an egg that might actually sway him. |

I guess if he is going to do that we might as well updated all of our databases because there is no doubt  we might as well have his thread title changed now

NYB=Granny Nevada??? 
For some reason, and I don't know what it is, I have a strangely optimistic feeling about Adams, and LOVE this kid as a recruit. He has some ridiculous physical gifts.
But I keep the SC game and his recruitment seperate in my own mind. |

I have to agree 100 per. This is a kid probably decked out in Buckeye gear his whole life, probably as late as last year...along w/his dad, an Ohio boy, who is probably just as crazy as any of the rest of us. I just don't see us missing out. Even his coach seems to be somewhat in our corner, or least not biased towards ASU, or the condoms.
Having just listened to Bucknuts weekly roundup, DuaneLong mentioned that the staff just visited Corey and that they are pushing as hard as the Buckeye staff pushes. Of course then, in the same hour of radio, Kurelic doesn't even mention Corey. So who knows.
I for one, think that we need Adams AT LEAST as much as we need Hall & Berry...maybe even more. If we get all 3...OMG! But I have to say, anybody is almost overkill to me, for 2008 that is, imho.

What if I do? Are you going to give me a frowny face? 
No, maybe I should have meant earlier. It would be a heck of a day to decide between the two schools however. Something tells me ABC would even broadcast it.
Seems like a good time to me.

Adding Adams to Simon and Bellamy would make this class even more killer. You have a future of possible Goebel, Rowell, Mobley, Adams, Simon, and Bellamy at DT...that is one strong interior DL. I'm with you all the way Alpo...I want Adams just about as much as Berry and Hall.
