Kind of hard to tell how good he is going up against that competition as he is just so much better. Reminds me of Ty Isaac who was rated similarly at this time last year, but then was exposed a bit when he faced legit talent in the All Star game. I guess in Hurd's favor compared to Isaac is...

Hahaha, I was just about to post the same thing. Lyrics were funny too. "All the girls from McAuley know the Lancers roll deep." (That's the all girls school a couple miles away.) His highlight video is really impressive. Some of the catches he makes on poorly thrown balls are incredible...

I'm fine with that. His highlights look good. The highlights of the WRs in the last class looked great.

Going to quote and respond to myself just to say that my opinion on this has completely changed just in the last week or so. With Webb in and recent reports that OSU may lead on Quin Blanding, Jabrill Peppers, Quincy Wilson and Erick Smith, the DB prospects are stronger than any other group...

Very positive update. I'm starting to look at it as a good thing for OSU whenever a recruit says relationship with coaching staff is his biggest factor. Our guys are as good as anyone in that area. With both Coombs and Meyer already building this relationship since last summer, I like our...

Yeah, there was a WR from GA a couple years ago too. But those guys weren't on this type of elite 5 star level. A lot of credit to Stanford for putting themselves in this position.

In terms of #1, I wonder if there are any recruits good enough to kill two birds with one stone. If so, Urban could go hard after the best Punter/Kicker in the country with the sales pitch that he will be the favorite to win both jobs as a true freshman.

OSU battling Stanford for the #2 overall player in the country. This has to be a first. I'm accustomed to battling Michigan, Alabama, Florida, USC, etc. but we haven't had to many high profile recruiting wars with the Cardinal.

I'm thinking it gets to 10 pretty quick. Then a few more over the summer. We could be just about finished with Ohio recruiting by then. But with the amount of national and southern kids we are after, I think there will be a lot of kids who wait until the All Star games or signing day. I...

How does Lattimore stack up as a defensive prospect? I thought I had seen it mentioned that he preferred defense, either CB or S. A first blush, the prospects at WR look better and deeper than the prospects at DB, so I kind of like the idea of him on that side of the ball if he is anywhere...

I really think we will end up with a normal sized class when all is said and done. Not quite 25, but low 20s is my guess. There are only 13 seniors, but Roby and Shazier will probably head to the NFL. There are 3 or 4 guys who will graduate next year who may or may not come back for a 5th...

I would definitely think Knox will be a guy, like Dontre Wilson this past year, that the OSU coaches keep working on despite him being a relatively solid commitment. There is obviously some reciprocal interest on his part and it seems like for the first time in a long time, there is the...

Some reports from some of the Texas guys that he will make it official for OSU tomorrow. Very nice pickup if true. The nicest thing about him is that he already looks really polished catching the ball. Unlike some of the other RB to slot WR converts we've had in the past (Lamarr Thomas), he...

Smart kid in regard to seeing his future realistically. Most kids think they can stick at RB. Takes some real maturity to see his own limitations and look at slot WR as his realistic best shot. A guy like Tavon Austin, another small guy, looks like he is going to be a high 2nd round pick this...

You may be right, but doesn't the fact that he is on the campus of one of his favorites the day he is planning to make his silent commitment a little bit worrisome? Sure, he could call the OSU coaches on his way home from Gainesville and commit. Or he could do it face to face with the UF...

Totally agree. Especially when you think about it in terms of the extra scholarship for 2014 that is gained for every kid we miss out on down the stretch. My fingers are crossed for Wilson and Clark, but with guys like Autry, Haden, Campbell, Hurd, Johnson, etc. all favoring OSU next year...

Not to read too much into things, but I believe he is spending the night in Gainesville tonight after the basketball game and will still be at Florida on Sunday. With him now saying he wants to make a silent commitment on Sunday...hard to not connect those dots and think he may commit to...

An early enrolling JUCO OL for 2014 is every bit as good of an addition as a 2013 high schooler in terms of ability to contribute in 2014. Arguably even better. Makes so much sense for both parties. OSU gets much needed depth and maybe even an immediate starter. A JUCO gets a shot at one of...

My guess is that the Volunteer guy is referring to DB depth and not OSU dropping Bell, which would be ludicrous. It does seem like Bell wants to start as a freshman and is very interested in the depth charts and other incoming recruits. The path to playing time at OSU is relatively open and...

Some good points made in the last few comments. RB, I know you like Barker, but I think if the coaches had the QBs evaluated similarly, they would have moved onto the safer option already in Barker. The biggest difference to me between the two is level of competition. Watson has proven it...
