I think the reason you are seeing such an obsession with Goebel is that a couple of weeks ago his acceptance of an OSU offer seemed imminent. He had a great camp visit with his folks and optimism was running high. Now that it hasn't materialized, and he's taking his family to visit scUM, some...

Good luck, Dan! Hope Notre Dame proves to be everything you want it to be.

I have argued all along that McCarthy will become a domer because: He's Catholic; he's of Irish descent; he's gone to parochial school his whole life; and his big brother is already there. Powerful "blood-is-thicker-than-water" motivators to head to South Bend. However... here are a couple of...

Originally posted this to Cordale Scott's thread, but Mili suggested it belonged here. Quarteback Heaven has a 43210 zipcode Attention Mr. Pryor: Here are the receivers likely to join you at tOSU, should you choose to matriculate with them: WR Cordale Scott - 6' 3", 197, 4.46 WR DeVier...

When you've watched Joe Gibbs coach as many games as I have, HB means H-back, which was my intention. I didn't know anybody even used the term 'halfback' anymore. Kind of quaint, Mili.

Quarteback Heaven has a 43210 zipcode Attention Mr. Pryor: Here are the receivers likely to join you at tOSU, should you choose to matriculate with them: WR Cordale Scott - 6' 3", 197, 4.46 WR DeVier Posey - 6' 3", 180, 4.5 WR/FL Lamaar Thomas - 5' 11", 175, 4.4 TE Kevin Koger - 6' 4"...

I sincerely hope that both Ayles and Koger stay in-state. Not dissing Ayles at all in this wish. Just hoping that Ohio's best tight end plays in Ohio and California's doesn't play in Wisconsin. :wink2:

What does the loss of Ryan Williams and Walter Dublin do to the chart? Does JT add a little more emphasis to DL recruits now?

The local pressure on this young man should be obvious to anyone paying attention. Rich Rodriguez has made it clear to everybody that he really wants Josh and the whole state views his program as a source of pride. They are even more rabid about the program these days, because they don't feel...

This is the textbook reaction of a narcissistic psychopath -- assuming that all these decisions are about him, rather than about what's best for others. Can anyone here imagine Jim Tressel getting his ego bruised because an 18 year-old makes the most important decision of his young life and it...

Just wanted to bump Lamaar back up the line a little after the good reports about his participation at camp last week. Maryland has been pretty barren territory for tOSU unfortunately. Penn State gets lots of love from the local media here as, of course, do Maryland and their compatriots in...

This seems to be a day for giddy optimism, what with JT, Troy, Herbie, Brewster and crew bonding with Terrelle at camp last week. But this point is a good one to sober up by. Urban is becoming an Urban Legend at pulling rabbits out of hats. He is scary-sneaky. And as I understand it, they...

It's not "all it takes", but it's an enormous factor. He's an Irish Catholic kid, who's gone to parochial school all his life, whose big brother goes to Notre Dame on a football scholarship. That's some pretty powerful motivation for a 17 year-old. There's no shame for tOSU if we "lose"...

Bingo! If Josh makes the decision to switch over to tOSU, no one here or in the WVA media will know about it until he puts on the hat at his press conference. I wonder if there were threads like this one on the Tennessee site last year, with everyone getting all lathered up about Ben Martin...

The fact that JF Sr. played at A&M has to be a strong pull for JF Jr. And the fact that he even mentioned 'distance from home' shows that it's weighing on his mind. His comments about tOSU really couldn't be much more positive -- loves JT and Hazell, likes the Holmes-Ginn-Gonzales track...

Palo Alto is a magnificent place and would turn the head of any young man -- especially one who grew up in Youngstown. But it's an awful long haul for Mom, Dad and friends to come see him play on Saturdays. Blood is always thicker than water (even the beautiful water of San Francisco Bay)...

Mike Golic's son? Domer-In-Waiting?

Earlier in this thread I pointed out the logical reasons TP should matriculate at tOSU: close to home; good shot at NCs; great OL; recent history of Heisman-winning QB, etc. The one downside, IMO, for tOSU is that JT and staff will not beg, grovel or over-promise [lie] to recruits the way some...

The day JT stops wowing parents is the day this recruiting gravy train grinds to a halt. Jim Tressel is a man who genuinely cares about the athletic, academic and spiritual development of the kids placed in his charge ...and it shows. Parents realize immediately that handing their beloved son...

Problem is the low total number of schollies available this year. There are several 'take-em-no-matter-what' kids out there with an interest in tOSU. I think there will be four OL in this class, almost guaranteed. But a fifth would have to compete for a spot against exceptional athletes at other...
