'06 MN DT Walker Ashley (Minny...no, maybe USC......no, PSU...no, Minnesota commit)

I heard tonight from one of my friends that might know what is going on with Walker says that Walker is going to USC. I am going home this weekend and I will ask around with some of my buds who might have a better idea since they are still going to EPHS.
That would certainly be consistent with what wstripes has said in the past, and (unfortunately for us) he seems to usually be dead on...

I dont know you nor your friend. So I can just take what you have to say as fact. I do believe that we are among the top two for Ashley since that's what came out of his mouth. It is difficult to take the word of other "ambiguous" sources over the kid's own words.

except for the fact that the "other 'ambiguous' sources" that I am referring to have (again, unfortunately for us Buckeye fans) rarely been proven wrong...

The only reason I posted this is because I have heard it from wstripes before and this just confirmed what he has said. I do think if Walker is really still deciding where to go to school we are in the top two or three and we still have as good of a chance as anybody to get him. But it is possible that he verbal to USC this summer and it just hasn't been made public yet.

Unless Ashley is trying recreate the Kevin Jones spectacle of a few years back, i really don't think he'd silently commit to USC and come out and tell the recruiting sources that Ohio State is his leader. I recall that everybody assumed that Ashley was going to USC because he marveled over a trip to their camp over the summer. But since then, the USC talk has steadily diminished and he came out and made OSU his new leader. I personally would be shocked if he was still a silent commit to USC.

Remember, players have historically committed silently on recruiting trips but then retract that commitment the second they get home. (Dwayne Jarrett ring a bell?) Maybe Ashley hinted at a commitment when he visited USC over the summer but feels a lot differently about things now.

Sleazy Pete wants his commits to remain silent and waste other coaches' time recruiting them ala OSU coaches wasting their time recruiting this kid. Folks, wstripes isn't just "some poster", he's ALWAYS BEEN ON THE MONEY. He has a direct connection to USC's staff. I will be shocked if Ashley is anywhere but SC next year.

there were a few usc fans (i dont know if wstripes was one) that also claimed that cameron colvin was a silent verbal last year, and that petey had convinced adrian peterson to drop OU.


Now if after ashley takes a few visits there is still the claim that he is a silent verbal, i would say the liklihood increases.

Nobody back home knew any thing as to where Walker is thinking about going to school. But the school paper last week had an article that quoted Walker as saying OSU is his favorite.

I trUly hope he pickS the BuCkeyes but I'm not counting on it.

Didnt Conley say in his chat a few weeks back that tOSU has alot of silent verbals,
and that its done so that the kids can take all of their official visits?
Guess Pete's not the only "sleazy" one.

Ashley lists USC as his favorite, Oklahoma as his #2 and the Buckeyes 3rd. I think the Buckeyes play on the field has soured him on the Bucks a bit.


Ashley pretty much admits as much. what's he going to do when ou has its typical end of the season swoon and loses 2 games? If he is that much of a bandwagoner, let him go elsewhere.
