It is all speculation.

That has definitely been the key factor, and I'm sure the staff has a real good idea who is going to enroll early. I imagine some of the elitists  on here do as well, but I haven't seen anything in any of the guys' threads to indicate their plans in this regard.
Any guesses?

If it really is a case of Watt or Hall, then i would much rather see Watt go to ND and Hall to OSU. I do not want to see the Glenville to Illinois connection gain anymore momentum...i realize you want to keep the talent in the conference, but maybe in this case it will start to be at the expense of future GVille kids

Question: (Please don't kill me)
I very seldom post in the Recruiting Forum. My interest in recruiting begins when a kid verbally commits to Ohio State; and the implications for the team are my primary focus.
Obviously, with 24 recruits by early July, my interest is higher than it has ever been this early. As I see the commitments roll in, I see numerous comments about how a year or two in the S&G S&C program will turn Recruit-X into a monster, etc...
This has me wondering: What about the 6 months to a year before they enter the S&C program at the WHAC? Can Lichter send the recruits a recommended pre/post season diet and training regimen and a list of recommended and approved supplements?
Clearly, what some of these kids are doing to get big and strong is working pretty well; but let's face it, EL is passionate about his job and is well-versed in the state-of-the-art. He could (if allowed by the NCAA) help the kid idealize their regimen, and at a time when the endocrinological state of their body is ideal for adding quality mass.

I know the school can send some workout plans to the player to go through at their high school. Only reason I know this is from a Pryor article, where it said OSU had sent Terrelle a workout regimen and he was sharing it with the backup QB's. Also, I had read that Justin Green and Jordan Whiting had went to Columbus to workout, so it would seem that this is possible.

I agree with you, I would rather get hall than watt just because he's a glenville kid. However I would like watt to go to illinois, they are the sleeper team IMO. I want to keep the top talent in the Big Ten. I would love to get both of them but that doesn't look like a possibility.
