Correct me if I am wrong but it is being rumored that he may not be an early enrolee and as a result, this race could be far from over...

Dunn is no longer planning to enroll early and may end up visiting Michigan in January. Still good news, though.

far from over, but it is trending back to the good guys

I dunno about that...the guy was already committed to OSU while we were without a permanent head coach and under the threat of sanctions.

I agree. Dunn wants to be a Buckeye. I think the whole deal lately has been about the offensive scheme and would he fit in. I do not think it had anything to do with a desire to play for TTUN. Perhaps Meyer has convinced Dunn that he would have plenty opportunity to showcase his talent here in Urban's offensive scheme.

You think he is waiting a ruling on possible NCAA sanctions?

No. I think he wants to know if Bollman will be retained. Wouldnt you?

U posters obviously have never been recruited in sports and have the same viewpoint as these kids. When you're a recruit u have to take off your fan/fanatic hat and wear one that views what is the best opportunity for u in the long run.

I was recruited by a number of Big Ten schools (not in FB). The first time TSUN's coaches talked to me I politely told them I was not interested in their school and to stop contacting me.

Yeah still not getting how you could be a lifelong big time OSU fan and then actually strongly consider scUM.

It would be one thing if the only two offers he had were OSU and scUM, and the situation at OSU didnt look ideal anymore for him. But that's not the case, he has offers from all over the place. Especially being from Canton, which is where he is from and where I am by, the scUM hate is big time. It's not like he is from Toledo with tons of Michigan fans surrounding him trying to get him to Ann Arbor. He is from Canton, where former Buckeyes Mike Doss, Tyler Everett, Kenny Peterson, Dustin Fox, Brian Hartline, TJ Downing, and Kirk Barton just to name a few are from.

Seeing as he was comitted to us firmly, and stayed strong with the NCAA crap, it;'s hard for me to understand how he could consider now going to scUM a place that also shows the spread as even a viable option.

If he is in fact a lifelong Buckeye fan, with all the Buckeye support, I can't see how Michigan would be much of an option for him. MSU I can understand, ND I could understand, Penn St (pre-scandal) I could understand, Tennessee I could understand. scUM, not a chance. When you wear Scarlet and Grey and attend games and committ, the thought of scUM in anyway more than you hate them and want to beat them to me is irrational.

Clearly not everyone agrees. I hope Bri'onte stays here, but again, best of luck to him and his decision and to a bright academic and football future.

And one more thing, seems like some of you Buckeye fans are too soft in your view of scUM. You should look up to the great Woody Hayes, thats the mantra on scUM you should have :biggrin:

:oh:
