Good stuff 86. The only thing Minny has going is the presence of friends...if that championship has sunken in and he has that feeling of victory in his blood, Minny cannot offer that.

Daniels Back From Oklahoma
By Duane Long
Date: Dec 19, 2004

Linebacker Alex Daniels of Columbus Brookhaven was on a big official visit this weekend as he took a trip to Oklahoma. What did he think of the trip? Duane Long got a quick update from Daniels this evening.


Linebacker Alex Daniels of Columbus Brookhaven took a big official visit this weekend as he traveled to Oklahoma. He had been home about ten minutes when we were able to get in contact with him.

"It was all right," Daniels said of the trip. "Kind of quiet. Everybody's going home for the holidays. There wasn't a lot to do.

"Larry Burdine was my host. He's a defensive end. He's a good guy."

Daniels is not quite sure what he will do with the rest of his visits.

"I still will be going to Ohio State on Jan. 7th," Daniels said. "After that, I'm just going to wait and see if anybody else I really like is going to offer me a visit.

"LSU has been in touch, but now that's up in the air. So I'm just going to go to Ohio State and after that, I'll wait and see."

Daniels does not plan on doing anything else over the winter other than conditioning.

"I'm going to concentrate on working out over the winter," Daniels said. "Work on my speed and conditioning, so I won't be playing a winter sport."

Right now the choice appears to be, play with his buddies in Minny (making his mom happy) or staying at home and playing for the Bucks. It should be interesting.

In a recruiting battle over an Ohio kid where grades aren't a factor, Ohio State should beat Minnesota 10 times out of 10.

Mr. Laurinaitis: Your first assignment - become friends with Mr. Daniels, and teach him what you've learned!

How do we know grades are not an issue. Insiders has him at a 3.2 GPA and a 16 on the ACT with no retake scheduled.

Am I missing something?

I can only assume that the fact he has an OSU offer is evidence that grades are not an issue. That is only an assumption, based in part on the fact that OSU has been so judicious with its offers this year.

It depends, really, you know? It could be that Duane knew when he was getting home (they're apparently boys) or it could be Duane just got lucky. If he just got lucky, then no harm, no foul. If Duane kept calling until Daniels got home, then that's bad.
