James Quick (WR Louisville)

Strong held a major job interview last night... He landed a big time coaching job somewhere... no way he stays at Louisville 4 more years...

Never know what is going on in a guy's head. Strong might really like it there. Maybe he wants to be the next Bobby Bowden, and take a perennial "also-ran" and turn it into a national powerhouse. If people knew in the mid 70's that Bobby Bowden would become a coaching legend with a few national titles while at the helm of what is now considered one of the greatest runs any team has ever had, who would have believed he'd do it while at Florida State? Or the same thing with Coach K at Duke. There has to be some appeal to hand-making a super power, as opposed to just being the guy who took over a powerhouse when the spot was available.

Is Quick planning on enrolling early? If he does pick tOSU on Saturday, I imagine this still won't be over until signing day. I imagine there will be a large reaction from the people he is around in L'ville. It could affect him positively or negatively but Charlie won't stop recruiting him.

I might be wrong but I don't think that Louisville good match the offer that Strong might get from a big-time program. Sorry for the diversion. Back to Quick fast.

Quick's recruitment reminds me of Diggs from last year. I REALLY hope I'm wrong, but that's what it seems to me

Except Coach Meyer has a 12-0 season of show-and-prove under his belt, and the relative dumpter fire of the interim season is no longer a factor. Hope you're wrong too :lol:

So you are saying Mr. Quick will make a decsion solely on which conference a school will be in 2013 and not going forward?

Im not saying that. Im no insider, my word is about as worthy as all the other fans. All Im saying is that they are still returning to play in a conference that is not very attractive to high level recruits outside of household university names like Clemson and Florida State. And a full season is a very long time frame to wait for anything - check how long this season has felt and how long the off-season will feel with being on a bowl ban.

From an article I read a few days ago, he was not impressed with Braxton's passing skills. I'll try to find the article and post the link.

Fine, but what does UL have next for QB?

Both Miller and Bridgewater are true sophomores, and so he won't get the benefit of having either QB longer based on his choice. Bridgewater is #8 in passing efficiency while Miller is #44, so if he's basing his decision mainly on who he'll have at QB for his first few years--and he was indeed not impressed with Miller's passing--then it might not bode well for us.

11W - The World Waits for James Quick

1/4

Two potential Ohio State wide receivers will be in action on Saturday for the East team in the U.S. Army All-American Bowl. Only one will announce his college decision. But whatever he opts to do could set off a domino effect.

That?s because the Buckeyes have limited room due to scholarship reductions. Despite losing Ricquan Southward, Ty Williams and Verlon Reed in the last year, Ohio State must still contend with NCAA shackles.

The top target for the Buckeyes is Louisville native James Quick. Decision day comes on Saturday. Will he stay in his hometown or go north to provide stability to an area of need for Ohio State? Your guess is as good as ours.
