Wiltfong has Ohio State as one of the schools to watch for Joey Fleming along with Alabama, Clemson, Oklahoma and Texas.
Ohio State made a major move after his spring visit according to Wiltfong.

Braylon Clark names Ohio State his leader and says he could make an early commitment:

“I have great feelings for Ohio State,” Clark told Rivals. “They’re No. 1 on my list right now. They’re definitely the frontrunner. I’ve had a great relationship with the whole coaching staff at Ohio State since I was a freshman and that visit this summer really showed me a lot.”
“I definitely could see myself committing early,” he said. “That’s actually a possibility for me. It is something I have thought about. I am not sure when I could commit, but if I feel ready this fall, I could go ahead and commit.”

Another quote from his story is that Ohio State is the one school that consistently challenges him to be a better player. That’s what I love so much about our recruiting, we don’t sell dreams or tell kids what they want to hear, we don’t hold their hand and tell them they’re the greatest player to ever walk the Earth.

Kevin Hartsfield said Georgia, Ohio State, Texas. Miami, Michigan and Oregon were among the first schools he heard from when communication opened for the 2028 class on June 15th.
Said he loves to compete and wants to go somewhere with a loaded RB room that he can trust, he doesn’t want to carry the load himself.

How did Illinois get involved in this?

Just wait, you'll see.

I want to preface this by saying I'm not a boomer hater. Young folk like to blame boomers for all of the world's problems and cry about how well they have it and I always say that they just took advantage of what was available to them at the time just as any generation would have done. That being said I have noticed a pattern. There's a small retirement community near our store. I can't count the times that we've caught these people who look to be fairly well off throwing shit into our dumpsters. We've bought padlocks but the homeless just come around with cutters and steal them. Or maybe it's the boomers. Also, they come driving past us throwing out of code product and become really upset when we tell them "no, we're not giving this stuff to you". As I said, these people are well off, they drive nice vehicle yet they're still trying to dumpster dive. I want to reiterate, I'm not a hater and I know this board has lots of wonderful boomers but there is a small handful of them that need to slapped around a bit.

Time to remember that this was an actual flavor at their creamery: Sandusky Blitz: banana flavored ice cream with chocolate covered peanuts and caramel swirl.”

I hope the motherfucker is getting "jabbed" in prison right now .....

Would’ve loved to have had him. It’s for sure a bummer but no running back is worth this sort of deal out of HS.

This kind of money would be better spent in the portal on a position such as QB, OT or DE.

All the family stuff that comes with DGG is just icing on the cake. Who does that btw? It’s so common but it’s so gross.

Anyone who thought this would go different knowing the other school was UT really doesn’t learn from history lol.

Games are won up front and if a RB doesn’t have an OL then forget it anyway

I took it that @calibuck was asking if I could name a current star player, and personally I wouldn't consider Sorsby a star. And the Kelce brothers weren't seen as stars when they played at UC btw.

Just sayin': The last 3 years the Juggalos went, 3-9, 5-7, and 7-6; I don't think they currently have any "star players"......

5* RB is pretty much worthless in terms of the team winning if the talent around him isn't good enough across the board to compete with the true higher end teams in the country.

I keep saying it but Bijan Robinson at Texas is the best example for this

He had very good Sophomore and Junior seasons.........Texas went a combined 13-12 in those seasons.

Agreed. I wish we got Bijan, because he's fun to root for in the NFL. But that and a quarter will get me a bouncie ball at the pizza joint.

Well, ESPN could give a callback to the guy who wouldn't report to work, unless he got Herbie's spot (he believed he was better), so got canned for abandoning his job. Went on to become AD of Nebraska, but lost track of him from then on. Hey, Hollywood resurrects old movie titles, maybe ESPN could go back in time as well?

On March 13, 2024, Texas A&M University announced that Trev Alberts had been hired as its new athletic director, replacing Ross Bjork, who took the same position at Ohio State.

The Women's Studies degree for the future ....

Why Buckeye colored if not Buckeye?

Oh good. Now everybody will be doing all the same inane dumbshit instead of their own inane dumbshit. Maybe this will make it easier to filter out from existence.

Just kidding. This world is fucked.

Seems on brand. Might be the only jobs left pretty soon and the ASU coeds have a natural leg up, or maybe two, for it.

Just sayin':

Surely you can name....

1) the Kelce brothers (i.e. Travis and Jason) they both sure have been in the news lately. Travis just married what's her name and Jason retired and became an ESPN talking head for their NFL games.
and
2) their star QB last season (i.e. Brendan Sorsby) who make the news for all the wrong reasons.

I can even name a 4th, Greg Cook who was the Juggalo's QB back in the 60s. He played college football for the University of Cincinnati and was selected 5th overall in the 1969 NFL/AFL draft. Once considered a rising star for the Cincinnati Bengals, he had his pro career prematurely ended by recurring shoulder troubles.

Greg Cook - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

The NFL Network NFL Top Ten series named Cook the #1 One Shot Wonder in NFL history.

Hopefully all the hand-wringing is all over and done, so tOSU juggernaut can continue on, focusing on the next best thing. Good luck to DGG, and sincerely hopes UT makes the playoffs, and comes up against the Buckeyes. Believe he made the best choice for him, although a bit misguided by our standards. Each choice has consequences. And the Buckeye RB room will thrive. Go Bucks, every day and always.

Just sayin': In addition to scUM, Ped State, and Notre Dame. I sincerely hope that they too go 0-12 every season until the end of time.......
