But enough about Notre Dame's recruiting habits. What are the odds Ohio State turns him around before NLOID '16?

Ok, seriously, what is with this name? http://www.utrockets.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=18000&ATCLID=1479951 http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/player/_/id/57002/adonis-thomas I've never heard any other instance of Adonis used as a first name, except these three... who all have the...

I'm not unsure that the inverse of this statement isn't unlikely.

I may be alone in this, but my view on recruiting in regard to the DL: go after only the absolute studs of this year's class. If you can't roll up a top shelf sure thing game changer, don't sweat it, use the scholly elsewhere. Between the hauls on DL we scored in '12 and '13, it's going to be...

That wouldn't leave much room for the other positions on the team, especially considering the anticipated OL focus in this class. I'd personally be surprised to see more than 3 DBs, unless we end up with a significantly larger class than is being projected.

Ha. Not often you see those statements used together.

What a great bit of news to come home to!

Yeah, watch #7 (on defense, obviously) in the very first play. He has two separate chances where he has a clean shot at Vonn, and just doesn't take it, then does a half-arsed jog alongside the action, and manages to end up just steps away from him at the goal line. If the dude had put an ounce...

The OL recruiting has been a bit unusual this year. It seemed like coming into the '13 class, we were in on some top shelf guys who all went elsewhere pretty early on in the process. Then we never really seemed to put any other offers out there. Compare that to just about any other position...

Ah, didn't know Munger was a candidate for the switch. That definitely helps pad things a little. I just hate the idea of going into a season more or less keeping your fingers crossed that the best case scenario is the outcome, and we don't have to sub out any of our lineman.

I don't think so. According to the scholarship count, we have 8 lineman who don't graduate next year, and 2 of those are transfer candidates. We have 2 lineman committed in this class. That means that we'll have 8 guys filling 5 spots, at a position that is renown for injuries. I think a lot...

I don't care what names end up getting filled in for the final spots, as long as one of them says "OT" in front of it and one says "S" in front of it. In a class that already has Jalin Marshall and Ezekiel Elliott in it, I don't get why people are so giddy about a playmaker who wouldn't be...

Glad to see Urban attempting to take advantage of the suddenly favorable situation in Oregon! Also, on a side note...

Ok, I read through the whole thread again trying to figure out what happened, but it seems quite a bit was removed after things got off track. When exactly did OSU drop out of the race? Just seemed like we were in the thick of it, then some posts were removed, and after that OSU was never...

Never know what is going on in a guy's head. Strong might really like it there. Maybe he wants to be the next Bobby Bowden, and take a perennial "also-ran" and turn it into a national powerhouse. If people knew in the mid 70's that Bobby Bowden would become a coaching legend with a few...
