Larry 'LJ' Scott (Retired)

Scott and Harris was the dream class but getting Harris and knowing OSU has a chance at Washington, McCall and Hill for next year means RB recruiting will be just fine despite this miss.

Well, with numbers as they are, I'm just happy that an Ohio kid is getting a chance to play at the next level and have his education taken care of.

Congrats to him.

No surprise there, especially with us seeming to slip in regards to Harris and the breaking news on Smiths dismissal. Hoping for a flip and he could rejoin George Hill for a few more years

and the breaking news on Smiths dismissal

A senior being dismissed from the team has absolutely nothing to do with recruiting a 2015 high school graduate. There is no possible connection between the two.

I've said this before and have been told that I'm wrong, but I personally like Scott more than Harris. So I wouldn't mind a flip. Plus, that would then get Scott away from MSU (even though they would then probably get Weber).

Which is fine b/c then Michigan gets no one.

I like your line of thinking. I would be ok with that scenario as well.

Potentially visiting for the michigan game with his mom. You keep doing you Urban:

Would love to have him, but can't blame any running back for not coming here with the amount of horses we have in the stable. So tough to get carries on this team. Look what happened with Smith and Dunn...hard to say, but both may have been stars at another school.

 

[OSUBucks22]

Don't get your hopes up on this one...

 

[sparcboxbuck]

Awwww heck, if the kid wants to come on down for a ring side seat to the epic beat down I can't blame him for a second. Frankly, I'd open up the doors for all of our and MSU's kids... And pay for half time pizza to boot.

 

[UpNorth_Buckeye]

They lost in the playoffs yesterday. Hopefully he makes it to The Game. If not then we can obviously mark this one done, but hopefully he does.

LJ SCOTT WON'T VISIT - WILL MIKE WEBER?

With one day left before most people traveling to Columbus begin their trek, the potential visitor list keeps changing. One player who was rumored to be considering a visit was Hubbard's LJ Scott, but that will not happen according to one source at Ohio State.

"There will be no Scott visit this week," the source said. "I don't think that one is going to work out for Ohio State."

Not entirely unexpected, but still disappointing.

RUNNING BACK THE RUNNING BACK SITUATION

Weber continues to dance around the topic of whether or not he'll seriously entertain Harbaugh and Wolverines, and as often the case is in recruiting, if he's looking then the Buckeyes are looking, too. Both sides are moving cautiously, but there's a small chance that Ohio State could get a visit this weekend from Michigan State commitment LJ Scott, who might be looking around a bit in the wake of Pat Narduzzi's departure to Pitt. Why does Narduzzi, Michigan State's defensive coordinator impact Scott? Who knows, but he does and if the Buckeyes don't feel confident in their stance with Weber, you should expect them go full bore after Scott...again.
