S Vonn Bell (All B1G, All-American, National Champion, Carolina Panthers)

I'm hoping we can land him, but definitely not the biggest recruit we're after right now IMO. Talent wise he actually is, but not as big of a need with the secondary haul we have in this class. Plus, if he chooses tenn over Bama I won't be complaining :)

Amen!!!

So long as he doesn't pick 'Bama...

Not sure if this is common knowledge, but per the Chattanooga Times Free Press, Vonn Bell will announce on Signing Day on ESPNU at 10 a.m.
(https://twitter.com/GerdOzone/status/296108773259501569)

I will bet you will hear these things at his announcement:

1. I had no idea where i was going till last night
2. I woke up and this morning and it just felt right
3. This school made me feel at home and i have a great relationship with the coaches
4. This is why i chose Ohio State (i hope)

Without that in-home at Bell's State Title game, he probably would have decided shortly after that game....wasn't it Urban that convinced him to take visits?


correct...without the in home he probably wouldnt of stepped foot in columbus when he did...so Urban did the right thing setting it up when he had to

Want more OSU recruiting drama? A source says Vonn Bell is not a lock to Alabama. Vonn wants to play early, source says Ala can't promise it

13' S Vonn Bell will have no contact with colleges after Thursday. He and those close to him will work on making a decision this weekend

He will get early PT with both tOSU and UT. Only one can provide a real shot at a NC and only one has a head coach with which he has much history/relationship. If this word is true this bodes well for the good guys. I for one have never been in the Bell-to-Bama-is-a-done-deal-camp.

I have a suspicion that Urban, using his in-home visit early, might have been a strategic mistake...

Couldn't disagree more. His (and Withers') strategy has been top-notch. His parents reportedly love Withers, the last recruiter that will get a chance to meet with them before they cut off recruiting on Thursday. I can't imagine a better approach. It might not work, but you know, it just might.
