Carlos Hyde? We must have different definitions of what constitutes "great speed" at the RB position....

I think Kimbrow could be a real key commit if we can get him. One thing that OSU can offer him that Vandy can't is stability. It's hard to see things working out well at Vandy. Either they struggle, which would suck. Or Franklin has some success there and bolts for a better job in a year or two...

That's pretty much the exact 5 I was thinking as well. Not sure if Bradley would bump one of them or if we'd have room for 6 more. (I do think that Davonte Neal or Stefon Diggs could take Caleb's spot, but probably one room for one more WR.) Or maybe they think Bam will grow into LB and he's...

From a need/talent perspective, he has to be very close to the top of the wish list for 2013 recruits. After Norwell, there just isn't another LT on the roster going forward.

Yes, but it is irrelevant since the 25 per class isn't the issue. It's all about the 85 scholarship total. We're getting pretty close to 85, though there are some possible transfers and medical hardships that might open up more spots.

After seeing his sophomore video, I had kind of the same opinion. But then I saw his junior video on Scout and WOW, this kid looks like the real deal. He had a ton of breakaway runs and looked like a legit blazer along with the other positives you mention. In my opinion, he is the most...

How's his competition? I've never heard of Lyndhurst.

I think his QB guru is the guy working with Cam Newton and was just on ESPN.

I'm not sure he is really 6'5 as listed. If he's only 6'3 or so, he'd have a hard time playing OT, which is what the Buckeyes really need in this class.

Does it seem like Stanford is offering every decent player in the midwest early this year? It's almost Zookian. Also, Deon Bush, S from Florida was offered today by Ohio State.

Sean Duggan gets my vote.

I'd be fine with that. Not very impressed with this group of prospects. And our results with Glenville kids have been pretty spotty lately. With few exceptions (Browning was valedictorian), almost every Glenville kid lately has had academic issues.

I'm normally one to think that these small school, big stat guys are vastly overrated. And that usually ends up being the case. But I'm definitely intrigued by Mauk. He seems to have legit athleticism. Not Braxton Miller level but maybe similar to Dan Persa or somebody like that. Assuming we...

That's kind of the impression I get as well from reading the Rivals update. He says he wants to talk to some other coaches and wait for the offer to sink in, but I think once he talks it over with the family, he decides pretty quick.

I agree 2011 is definitely better. I'd add just a couple points to what you said: 1. The positions of strength this year (QB and DT/DE) are the most important positions in my opinion. The D Line is the key to a good defense as they can make average LBs and DBs look good. Obviously, the QB is...

The way he runs sort of forward with long strides, he kind of reminds me of another #7, Teddy Ginn. I wonder if that had any impact on him choosing that number...

Congrats and good luck to John. Kevin Huber is the best Bengals punter in at least a decade and the Bengals took him in the 5th round out of UC.

Just to piggyback the last few posts, I agree and I have a theory about why that has been happening this year. I don't think its the perception of OSU as boring or whatever that a lot of people seem to think. In my opinion, the real problem is that this OSU recruiting class is lacking leaders...

Kids who greyshirt usually 1. don't have many other good offers and 2. come from families with enough money that they don't really care about footing the tuition bill for the first year. Jones will probably get some great offers (rumors of Michigan coming soon) and, though I don't know for...

LJB, you mentioned in the Hankins thread that Floyd has academic issues. Can you expound upon that at all? I don't remember hearing anything about that previously. Is his offer conditional?
