VA DT Tim Settle (Virginia Tech Verbal)

We're still about a year away, but Tim Settle has announced that his intentions are to commit to a school on October 18th of next year. At it's been for quite some time, Alabama, Virginia, and Ohio State are the top challengers to land the five-star tackle. Though it'll be a tough task to out dual the hometown Cavaliers, the killer duo of Urban Meyer and Mike Vrabel have pulled commitments of this magnitude in the past. The 6'3, 305 pound beast has not yet made it to Columbus this season, but did wind up at the University of Virginia three times in August. The Buckeyes are in the thick of the race to land him and, as we stand now, Settle is a predicted 59% crystal ball lock to Ohio State.

Top 2015 defensive lineman Tim Settle racking up scholarship offers, says Ohio State is in good position: Buckeyes recruiting
Though Settle isn't sure which programs will be on his top seven list when he narrows it down during the summer, he said the Buckeyes have a good chance of making the cut. But in order for Ohio State to do that, Settle wants more consistent contact with the Buckeyes' coaching staff.

"I love Ohio State, and I have to get back up there," Settle said. "The first time I went I didn’t get to see the whole campus. I only got to see the facilities, and when I go somewhere I want to see everything, so that’s something I am looking forward to.

"I just have to keep in touch with them. I don’t want to go into a period where we stop talking for a while, because then I’ll start to lose interest."

Thought about something today. There is a real possibility of finishing this class with Solomon Thomas and then adding an interior stud like Tim in the 2015 class. Just imagine adding those 2 guys to the DLine we already have on roster and coming in the 2014 class. Yikes. I realize neither is in the bag yet but the quality and depth we are building on the D Line is getting ridiculous and if we land Tim in the next class it just keeps rolling.

At one point our friends at Michigan had high hopes for Settle. Somehow, I think they have given up on that fantasy. Hand going to Bama, was no doubt a sobering experience.
No they've been told how much Settle loves Michigan while they refused to offer (only when Hjabe went elsewhere did they offer)
