Not a good look from a team that wanted to toss aside their old coach and apparently assumed he would not coach elsewhere, and is now upset that he did—and took a bunch of players, just like Cignetti did and Franklin did and the new guy at PSU did etc.

I had a lot of respect for the University of Utah football program and athletic department. But their pettiness grows more with every month. Move on.

Speaking about Jermaine Cobbins today, Tom Loy said if his process ended today he would be a Buckeye but there’s still a long way to go. Visits and building relationships with his family and the right people in his family who matter most will be key.

“The right people in his family who matter most” gives me shady uncle vibes lol.

Wonder if father (Marc) will try to steer son to ND, or realize he could have maximized himself at tOSU, and try to steer him to the Buckeyes?

Right now it seems like he's staying in FL. Miami and UF are the early favorites, as they're both working overtime to land him and his teammate Asher Ghioto

Look Who's Transferring Now (The Portal)

I am not a lawyer and have never seen an actual LOI agreement for college football but they are not the same thing as an employment agreement in the real world.

LOI in CFB means I agree to come play football for you in return for a scholarship. It binds both sides to do whatever is in the agreement. That’s why guys have to be”released” from them.

As @Trevi said above, and I mentioned in one of my anti common sense posts, these have been 1 year deals between player and school for the majority of CFB history. It was just the other way around so now that the schools and their lobby are trying to do what’s best for the sport-they don’t mention that so much.

This is the modern coal mine owners working together to buy politicians and control the cost of labor so they can keep control of the tv money. They know that only 20-30 teams are big enough brands to survive in a world of year to year free agent bidding wars and that even then , those teams cannot carry the expense of the 30 some odd teams at the university that don’t make money.

This is the fight for how it’s going to go forward. Old owners find a way to still control it or it totally blows up and changes (imo).

Here's a copy: https://images.template.net/wp-cont...al-Letter-of-Intent-for-Students-Download.pdf

However, according to Google AI: The traditional National Letter of Intent (NLI) is no longer used for Division 1 college football recruits.
The NCAA officially eliminated the 60-year-old NLI program, replacing it with direct written offers of athletics aid and institutional financial aid agreements.

What Replaced the NLI
    • Athletic Grant-in-Aid: Recruits now sign standard financial aid agreements and scholarship contracts directly with the university.
    • No Separate NLI Organization: The paperwork is managed institutionally rather than through a separate national program.
    • Recruiting Deadures: Other schools must still stop recruiting a player once an official financial aid agreement is signed....:lol:
Key Differences Today
    • Signing Days Remain: High school and transfer players still celebrate commitment ceremonies on traditional signing days, putting pen to paper on their financial aid papers.
    • Revenue Sharing & Modern Rules: The shift accommodates upcoming direct revenue-sharing models and evolving roster structures.

Birm has all but indicated that the top 3 defensive prospects in this class that Ohio State is willing to break the bank for are Casey Barner, Tahj Gray and Jermaine Cobbins.
He also expects Ohio State to spend big on DT, more specifically a one tech body like Aedyn Havili or Prince Che.

James Laurinaitis is doing it again, Ohio State is in the top two early for two elite LB targets in Austin Phillips and Sekou Toure.
Phillips was tabbed as the #1 LB early on by Rivals, Toure has been tabbed as the #1 LB early on by 247. Ohio State is battling ND for Phillips and Texas A&M for Toure.

Toure has 3 older brothers currently playing college football: Mohamed Toure (Miami), Vaboue Toure (Penn State) and Famah Toure (Rutgers). Elite bloodlines.

And no reason to think being a legacy at any specific school is an issue to overcome.

game 1 tomorrow night, sons team isn't returning many starters this year (last years team went 2 weeks into the playoffs) - defense looks pretty damn good (from the 2 scrimmages I saw) - the offense looks like the run game can be good, but the OL is the weak spot for sure. my boy made the shift to middle line backer this season, really looking forward to watching him go hit someone!

good luck to your son!
