We all know the NCAA won't do jack shit, but if this isn't "lack of institutional control" then what is?

"It's just a good fit for me," May told Rivals right after letting the world know he's Ohio State-bound. "I just like the development, I just like the people around me, and I just feel like this is going to be the best option for my future, and making it to the next level."

MLBTR says they are selling off the pending free agents.

As they are all pure shit, I don’t expect much return but it’s at least the end of Stephenson and Geno.

According to the pundits, Sad got hurt and rolled over.
I saw Snyder get the winning TD and then the injury to Sad...

That's what I saw too, already had the TD when Sad reacted with the injury.

Jim Ryun was the man for a long time. A couple of books, The quest for Gold and the Master of the Mile.

Clinic happening. Clark, Mitchell and Boston could be the WNBA version of the 90s Villa trio of they stay healthy.

I don't think anybody is making their college choice on what number they get to wear in the era of NIL

Just sayin': Ohio State didn't make the cut.

Yeah, I was half expecting Carmelo Anthony to be subbed in.

No team in all of college football recruited better than the University of Alabama during Nick Saban’s 17-year run coaching the Crimson Tide. Every single one of Saban’s 17 recruiting classes at Alabama ranked in the top five of 247Sports’ composite team rankings. Add in the fact that Auburn was often competing for SEC and national championships, and it was rare for top prospects from Alabama to leave their home state.

Since Kalen DeBoer replaced Saban in 2024, however, Alabama has lost its stranglehold on top talent in its backyard. Mystifyingly, all of the top 15 prospects from the state of Alabama in the 2027 class are now committed to schools other than the University of Alabama. Auburn, meanwhile, is coming off five straight seven-loss seasons.

Top 15 Prospects from Alabama in the 2027 Recruiting Class
NIL promises often supersede regional roots in today’s recruiting landscape, and that’s allowed Ohio State – not only with its financial resources, but also its track record of perennially competing for championships and producing early-round NFL draft picks – to have more recruiting success than ever before in states that were historically controlled by SEC powers. There’s no more striking example of that than how quickly Ohio State has created a pipeline of talent from Alabama to Columbus over the last three years.

Just sayin': Alabama isn't doing too well in it's own state.

Yeah to Thump's cry of 'Bagmen'. Cignetti is ticking off his accomplishments, win B10, win a Nati, sign best in Indiana. Gotta give him credit. But back to Sales, cannot blame him at all, and good luck to him. We'll see how well he gets prepared for the NFL there, but should get many more minutes at Indy than tOSU. Depth chart probably worked against tOSU, given the stable of current 5*s, and verbaled 5*'s acoming. And Cignetti always seems to land a polished QB. Really don't know how good their teaching staff/coaches are, so do not have an informed opinion. But must be adequate to the tasks. Good luck, wait until our DBs line up against you, and remember they go daily against tOSU's 5* WRs in practice.

IU had a 1st round pick(same amount of 1st round WRs drafted as OSU) and 4th rounder after winning an NC. Thats A LOT to sell a hometown kid

Well, it's been my experience that laws are made/written, whatever. However, they don't mean much until they are adjudicated in a court of law. Where each and every sentence is sliced and diced. An allegory might be - what's the speed limit? Answer is - whatever the highway patrol enforces. Same with players CBA, and the 'five to play five' rulings.

Interesting Bestbuck. If McDuff 'goes big', having Elsa at the 5, Mobley at the 4, and Kitts at the 3/4, could/would assume that the Buckeyes would control the boards. But with only two quick players at the PG and SG, not certain how McDuff's beloved full court press would be effective. Really don't see him giving up on his calling card. But when tOSU plays the SC's (South Carolina), and UConn's of the world, that kind of look might be more effective than four smaller guards running around.

Exactly. In the tourneys our press hasn't been as effective so we hands to win more in the half court game. At least there seems to be options right?

Maniac's visual (#23) is fricking incredible. Don't know if done by talking heads or coaches, but no one saw all of these guys, maybe took articles written about each team and stacked them, highest pile if #1? Or somesuch arbitrary way. And yes, opinion are like 'noses' everyone's got one.

As I suspected

Yeah, that whole couple of weeks he spent at Tennessee did wonders for him./s

I think a lot of it's performative. I think a lot of it's for attention.

Saw this gentleman out in public yesterday with what I assume could have been recruits and/or GA’s/other staffers. He is built like a fucking brick. What I want my RB coach to look like.

DGG was definitely with him when I saw him. I didn’t realize who it was at the time but they seemed to be having a great time as well as the other recruits. Let’s hope he brings this home
