BPCFFB League #2 League Champion 2008 & 2010
Absolutly nothing is pointing towards Ohio State, besides Kyle Lamb's few conversations. There has been no other media outlet that has put the Buckeyes in contention anymore. As late as today there have been congratulations to scUM's rivals site, by posters from UCLA to Kansas. I personally don't think Hairston will end up in Michigan. Lets face it, he knows where he's going. Nothing new will come up between today and when he picks (unless Amaker stuffs an envelope in Richard's jacket). So if he planned to go to Michigan, why not have a big press conference, family on hand at his future school. Why... because he isn't planning to go there. I think it's a last minute visit that momma Hairston wanted him to take. Sure, sh'll be chirpping in his ear, about how nice it would be to have him close to home... but he can't discount how they handled the whole Crawford situation. This leads me to believe that he'll take his 2 or 3 days, keep his family and freinds in mind... and in turn choose to come to The Ohio State University. With the recent addition of Foster, this adds another player to what can be an up tempo game. Let's face it.. if he goes to scUM, they'd be a bit better, if he chooses OSU... we'd be a bit better. So there is really no differential in which school has a better chance at winning. UCLA has improved themselves but are just too far, and they still have to compete with Stanford and Arizona for Pac-10 dominance. Kansas just had an exodus, and will be worse off next year, than they were this past season. So I think the end decision looks good for OSU, based on closeness, ability to win, quality coaching, great teammates and loyalty to him throughout this whole process.
