.... he admits he's pretty fond of Michigan, is Pittsburgh's
Sterling Jenkins.
Jenkins visited Ohio State twice this summer and finally made a return visit to campus this weekend, taking in his first Buckeye game inside an icy Ohio Stadium.
"It was super cold (laughs) but I enjoyed it," Jenkins said Sunday afternoon. "(All the fans) were so pumped up from the band and the players it was exhilarating."
Jenkins has been labeled a "Michigan lean" by man, but he tried to clarify things, and he's made it clear the Buckeyes have a good shot. He's by no means made up his mind.
"I really do like the Ohio State," he continued. "I think I'd be doing myself wrong to not look into every school I even
potentially like, as this will be one of the biggest decisions I ever make. I like Ohio State, and me saying I like one school isn't "shaming" anyone else. I do like Ohio State a lot and this weekend helped that a lot."
Jenkins felt some familiarity in what the Buckeyes do offensively, and he paid special attention to one player along the Ohio State offensive line, senior star Jack Mewhort.
"Their offense was very good, very familiar to me," he added. "I was watching (Jack) Mewhort most of the time and was really impressed, that guy is a beast."
