2028 GA WR Madoxx Davis (Verbal Offer)

Tom Loy on Madoxx Davis:

I still believe Ohio State is setting the bar early for the Georgia native, who is originally from New Jersey. The Buckeyes continue to cause Davis to light up with a smile from ear to ear when he talks about them. That said, this recruitment is far from over. We'll see where he visits this fall, and we will see which schools continue to move the needles for him as time progresses.
Loy mentioned that Clemson, LSU, Florida and Ole Miss will be involved. Georgia and Miami are two others that are lingering as well.
Davis has just two game day visits planned so far, Ohio State vs Michigan and Alabama vs Georgia.

2026 scUM Shenanigans, Arguments, Arrogant Twatwaffles, Emasculated Cucks, Feckless Marmots, Dirty Cheaters "Mid"chigan

Paige Shiver, the former Michigan football staffer who was involved in an affair with former head coach Sherrone Moore, has filed a lawsuit against the university, according to a report from the Detroit Free Press.

The lawsuit, which was filed Wednesday, claims Michigan is withholding records related to a multimillion-dollar investigation into the scandal.

The lawsuit accuses the university of violating the Michigan Freedom of Information Act. It cites numerous FOIA requests made by Shiver and her representation — ranging from documents related to the investigation of Moore to emails between Moore and Michigan AD Warde Manuel in which keywords “affair, discipline, pregnancy, baby, abortion” were mentioned.

And scums not surprising response to the requests:
Michigan often denied the requests, suggesting they did not exist, could not be made available or were too broad.

WR Devin McCuin (Official Thread)

This. They didn't see the field until they met the Hartline standard and we repeatedly saw the results in the guys' second and third years. That said, there is much to be said for getting actual game experience along the way and the NIL era is going to require more rotation, even at tOSU. I also love the idea of wearing DBs the fuck out with fresh horses the whole game, even if that just means making them run deep blasts and working them. I can't imagine anyone's DB depth matching our WR depth, while our younger guys lack experience, they're all fast.

Cincinnati Reds (2026 Season Thread)

Lowder in the bullpen is an excellent idea. If we get another starter to show up and move Lodolo there he and Lowder setting up healthy Pagan and Santillan changes things dramatically. This year is pretty much lost but if they can have the guts to make that move with the idea that one of those guys is the closer in waiting, we have something.

Now, who here thinks our organization has the ability to get that done? I'll hang up and listen.
Eh. The best thing we have going for us is they are going to lock these giggle fucks out next year and won’t have to watch the Reds in 2027.

I am dreading 2028 already

Why Ohio State has set the standard on how to use NIL in recruiting

The Ohio State football program has done a good job of using NIL in this cycle of recruiting, and they have now set the standard for other programs.

The Ohio State football program struggled to adapt to NIL recruiting rules when they were first implemented. They were afraid to overspend, resulting in Ryan Day and his staff losing out on multiple elite recruits. It was a struggle to find the balance of the right amount of money while also making sure a recruit wasn't just committing for money.

Things have changed in the last couple of years. It has always been Day's philosophy not to overpay for high school recruits, instead preferring to play for proven talent in the Transfer Portal. That continues to be the case, but he has become less rigid when it comes to high school prospects.

In the 2027 recruiting class, the Ohio State Buckeyes have opted to pay several highly-touted recruits a substantial amount of money. Yet, they continue to refuse to overpay. They won't pay a ton of money for a high school player, no matter how highly they are ranked.

Ryan Day has figured out the proper way to use NIL funds in recruiting

Take the case of David Gabriel Georges. He is the recruit whom the Buckeyes have spent the most time on in this cycle. It was reported that he could surpass $1 million in NIL money. However, Ohio State refuses to pay that much. In fact, they might barely pay half that amount.

Even with that huge difference in money between Ohio State and Tennessee, Gabriel Georges could still pick the Buckeyes over the Volunteers. That's because Ohio State has so much more to offer than just money. Day has done a good job of showing recruits that.

Day is willing to pay a premium for top-shelf talent, as long as it's clear money is the primary motivation for a high school recruit, and not money. Day wants to make sure that the high school prospect is more focused on being a team-first guy and is someone who wants to win.

Ohio State has found a good balance with its NIL spending

The Buckeyes haven't been afraid to spend when it comes to DJ Jacobs or Marcus Fakatou. It seems they are willing to pay a lot for Gabriel Georges, as well. Monshun Sales' offer isn't small by any means, either. Day is willing to pay recruits more than he was a year ago.

Ross Bjork has helped greenlight the efforts to find more money for incoming recruits. While Ohio State sits just ninth in the recruiting rankings at the moment, those money efforts could give them an edge once December rolls around. They could have a top-five class by the time winter comes.

The Buckeyes bring in one of the best classes in the country almost every single year. That won't change in the 2027 class, and it looks like it won't change for the foreseeable future, either. The ability to not pay too much and still get the top recruits in the nation is the best balance in recruiting.

Ohio State has done a good job finding that balance.
Pretty sure the people in this website have known this since it started with the few losses we belly ached over. We don't have cherished players leaving here for more money because of how we are built. It started with Urbs but Day has built an NFL organization here and everyone now knows it. Everyone is chasing us not the other way around.

THE way it should be. :oh:

OSU Women's Basketball Recruiting/Projections/General Discussions

Looks like a solid compliment to 6'6" Elsa in the post. This is gonna be a team to enjoy. Final Four, here we come!
Development. The key has always been development. If Elsa makes as big a jump this year as she did last, we're golden. If Kitts and Mobley play up then Final Four is a real shot with our guards. From your lips to His ears!

2027 IN WR Monshun Sales (Verbal Offer)

OSU fans should get used to having only 1 five star WR in every class. It has nothing to do with Hankton.

OSU has changed their approach to NIL spending and putting more value to spreading the love around. Spending more in the trenches for example.

I am great with the new approach.

I think the change would have occurred even if Hartline stayed.
