The "that" that he was referring to is the thought that OSU may have backed off, not the fact that he may be favoring ND.

We've been down that 'pass/slowplay on a legit prospect while waiting on a "bigger fish" road' before...hopefully this one works out better than the past few. |

I've had a feeling for a little while that this may be like that Pat Muldoon situation from St. X last year... Had an early offer, but once the staff started evaluating other players and offers they moved on... I think (not know) that that may have happened with Matt too...

Anyways, other than Duane, has anybody else expressed some reservations on James after evaluating his film? I'm just trying to figure out what has the staff "backing off". I'm sure the staff knows what they are doing with James, but I do hope they bring in at least 4-5 lineman in with this next class regardless of the James situation. I haven't exactly been a big fan of the limited number of scholarship O-linemen over the years. It would really be nice to redshirt a bunch of linemen rather than waste the redshirt and play kids out of necessity. O-linemen just take longer to develope and an extra year can only help. |

Duane retracted that statement. He was watching his soph highlights on scoutingohio. Once he watched his junior tape, he bumped him back up to being an elite prospect.

Let me try again. Are there any recruiting evaluators not named Duane that have expressed reservations about James that are perhaps shared by the coaching staff. |

I hate the idea of OSU backing off of Matt James. Who cares if he favors ND? Recruit him more intensely. And yet, we did not back off from Steve Rehring, Kyle Mitchum, and Connor Smith. Unbelievable. Sure, I'll trust the coaching staff's ability to judge O-Line talent, but then I keep thinking about the last three names I just mentioned.......
