2027 GA DL David "DJ" Jacobs is a Buckeye!!!

To be clear, I think the Miami deal was “signed” (or maybe just agreed to) but not submitted. I don’t think he broke a contract or anything.

That's how I understood it from your post and, again in real world, no agent is going to let him sign anything he can't easily back out of....until money changes hands. Then it's the old saw about a ham and egg breakfast. Chicken is involved, pig is committed.

He signed an NIL contract with Miami but Ohio State came in at the last minute with an NIL deal he liked more, so he ripped one up and signed Ohio State’s NIL deal instead.

Players are allowed to start making money in high school these days, so the deals are effective basically right away. Which is why there’s some confidence this sticks - and why most top end players didn’t flip in the last class - they’re already making money.

Using normal business tactics, and validated by the UGA kid who is being sued, you build in clawbacks to the NIL deals and as soon as they start taking the money, it gets harder and harder to leave.

Thanks for the info. This makes a lot of sense.

I was on the Georgia site and Jake Rowe, a Georgia insider, said the father is actually always that way, very stoic, rarely shows emotion. Business like personnel is a benefit to the Buckeyes and its culture, uncontrolled emotion is a sign of trouble.

I don’t want to be someone’s leverage so I’ll believe it when I see it. Sorry to be that guy.

Recruiting is never over basically translates to “we will see who ends up offering me the most.”

Does the #1 overall recruit have to use a team for leverage this early in the game?

I think if he's a guy who's purely gonna go to the highest bidder then we likely aren't holding on

Have to hope he at least somewhat cares about what the program is selling.
I feel like he would've already gone to the highest bidder if that's the case. From what I've read OSU wasn't the highest offer. Feels like the only way he flips is if someone offers him a house or something like that OT from a few years back.

Impending Assistant Coach Vacancies

JT Barrett young offensive mind from Ben Johnson or even Randle-El. I don’t want stale.
If JT wasn’t an ex Buckeye, you wouldn’t even mention him, I could see bringing him back as a position coach, not OC though. Randle El has no college coaching experience as well.

I'd be interested to learn more about what is meant by "a modern recruitment". Actual info, not message board guessing.

2025 Cotton Bowl: #2 tOSU vs #10 Miami-FL, Wed 12/31 7:30 ET at JerryWorld

Well no… we got our butts handed to us last game vs a better Indiana team and we still should’ve won despite the OL.

They’ll be ready though. Reminds me a lot of how we heard Tennessee was going to destroy our OL.
Well no. Indiana beat us because our O line couldn't stop Indy's Grandmas
