I'm not saying that, it's just unusual to me that this late you have three commitments take visits with two of them not notifying coaches.

I didn't mean to imply you were, was just a straight sarcasm post


but, basically, welcome to the new Ohio St recruiting where Urban will go after the high talent national guys who are, umm, trying to think of the right word...can't think of one that won't get me in trouble.

This is the craziest year of recruiting i can remember in a long time...i blame twitter and global warming

It's a different world for sure. I guess when the recruiting attention moves from Ohio to a national level and your coach is not afraid to cherry pick committed recruits from other teams who have players he's interested in, we've got to expect that the same is going to happen to us from time to time.

It sure is a heck of a lot more fun...

Where recruits are going to take their visits and play the field a little bit. Ohio State's brand name is going to recruit itself somewhere north of 80% of the time, but that last 20% is where we need to trust the coaches. :wink:

A couple things.
Some WR prospects are further developed than others so there is a pecking order.
How come we seem to be having problems getting WRs right now?

The days of taking undeveloped "athletes" at any position may be over.
Urban believes he doesn't need to take "athletes" and wait on development.

It's good to hear about 4-5 star rankings but I love hearing about how good a student and team-mate kids are. You build a great "team" with good students and team oriented kids.
Good kids in general.

We may lose Elliot but we are stacked at running back and if we get Wilson he could end up playing more running back.
