DE Kenny Hayes (transfer to Toledo)

[ant80]

Oh MAN!!! It isn't even September 1st yet! Awesome!

Welcome to the family Kenny!

Official offers can be issued on September 1st. But a player can verbally commit before that happens.

And the coaches aren't allowed to comment on prospects until NLOID, which will be in February of 2011.

That just sounds so far away. LOL. But I remember Boone and Beanie's recruitment like it was just yesterday, Im sure time will fly.

Anywho, congrats to Tress & Co. on the recruit.

Welcome to the family, Kenny! Might have to make it to a Whitmer game this year.

[nextbuckeye]

Buckeyes land 2011 defensive lineman Kenny Hayes
A 6-foot-5, 240-pound defensive end, Kenny Hayes of Whitmer (Toledo, Ohio) has given Ohio State its first commitment for the Class of 2011.

He also has an early offer from Illinois.

And some people were worried about/hoping for the Kevin Koger effect to set in...

Very nice start to the '11 class!

I would argue that the Koger effect has set in, which is why he never considered michigan at all.

I get what you are saying but my point is that Kenny was never going to Michigan...regardless. He is a Buckeye born and bred...

i know. regardless, very few are going to be willing to join former teammates at that trainwreck up north (TTUN).
