A lot of schools have signing day media sessions. My local news web sites have posted a listing of the local schools where they will be covering the signings. So I don't think that alone is reason to think EzE is flipping his decision.

My brother is convinced he's signing with Mizzou for this reason. I hope my brother is wrong!

Ohio State or Mizzou? Elliott will choose today
By Nate Latsch

The waiting will end today.

John Burroughs senior running back Ezekiel Elliott is expected to announce his college decision ? choosing between Ohio State and Missouri ? at a 4 p.m. press conference at his school.

Elliott has been committed to the Buckeyes since April but recently took an official visit to Missouri, where both of his parents were athletes. Since that visit, he has declined to do interviews with the media, making public comments only through his Twitter account: @EzekielElliott.

A 6-foot, 205-pound speedster who lives in Alton, Elliott is rated by Scout.com as the ninth-best running back and 47th-best prospect in the senior class, while Rivals.com rates him 12th among running backs and 83rd overall and ESPN ranks him 11th among running backs and 109th overall.

Elliott was the Post-Dispatch offensive player of the year this fall after he accounted for 3,061 all-purpose yards and an area-best 50 touchdowns in leading the Bombers to a 13-1 record and a third consecutive Missouri Class 3 runner-up finish. He rushed for 2,155 yards, averaging 10.6 yards per carry, and 40 touchdowns. He added 383 receiving yards and four touchdowns on 16 receptions. He also had 523 yards and another six scores on returns.

I think we need to give the kid the benefit of the doubt. He wants his moment and this is a way to build up anticipation.

With all of the coverage devoted to these kids he may just want to wait for all of the Ole Miss talk to die down so that he can make a splash.

Zeke is still committed to the Buckeyes and until he says Missouri then we have to accept him at his word.

If he does choose Missouri then we'll never hear from him again as Missouri is about as irrelevant as they come on the college football landscape.

if he wants to go to mizzou that's his choice. but if he was really torn, and strongly considering them, then he should have outright decommitted from osu and told the staff he was doing so.

My confidence that EE will be a Buckeye has risen dramatically with the following logic:

(1) UFM was unsure about one player
(2) the coaches were literally jumping when Vonn Bell committed
(3) Vonn Bell was the player they were unsure about
(4) They've known EE is a Buckeye all along.

Keep the train rolling EE

On the flip side, they could know he's not coming. :wink2:

Bell is not the player they are unsure about. Meyer is still unsure about one player as of right now. Really hope EzE sticks, love what he brings.

I just listened to him on ESPN radio two minutes ago. He said there is one more. It was not Bell. Back to EE

ok, he said waiting one more signature, but earlier in the day when he said they were unsure about one player it Bell, OSU's reaction in the signing room would prove that
