'06 OH OL Joe Thomas (Pitt Verbal)

Wow. I'm surprised to see him turn down the Bucks, but you've gotta respect a kid for sticking to his commitment (and for having the sense to double-check to make sure he was choosing right).

Good luck at Pitt!

There is still a tiny lil sliver of hope that he said he was going to honor his committment until he had a chance to talk to the Pitt staff. Also there have been reports that the staff felt good when he left, so maybe just maybe there is still a sliver of hope.

I agree with Grad 100%.

If you look at the situation
  • tOSU coaches thought they were in good shape
  • Wells and the other recruits visiting this weekend thought he was going to be a buck
  • Joe said himself that he was going to stick with his commitment to Pitt "for now"
If I connect the dots my guess is that he and his dad are not 100% sure of tOSU commitment. JT told him to go check out Pitt and make sure that OSU is where he wants to be.

That would logically explain all of the mixed messages we are seeing.

Just a hunch.
