Long believes if the Buckeyes can add Martin, Barksdale and Davis, the Buckeyes would finish with a class ranked among the top 20 in the country.

Umm, that is really going out on the limb there.

Umm, that is really going out on the limb there.

considering that going out on a bridge let alone a limb is dangerous territory for duane long, that doesn't sound like a bad statement.

i would think we would be top10 for sure and even better when you look at average stars, but at my size i can feel a little more confident going out a limb without having steel structural support.

if all comes out that way. OSU ahould be a top 10 or better easily.
I used to follow what Duane posted as the only one that had a clue on bsucky but, he might have been working there to LONG TO COME UP with a TOP 20 STATEMENT.

Ben has checked in and may announce at the game.

 

[Alex Boone fan]

I hope so. I cannot stand the suspense any longer. It seems this has dragged on for awhile.

From the posts I have read from you Alex Boone fan, I would highly suggest you not to following recruiting until the day after NLOID. Be easy!

Ben Martin update

La Salle DE/LB Ben Martin continues to mull his college football choice. Martin has Notre Dame, Ohio State, Tennessee and Florida on his list, La Salle coach Tom Grippa said.

Martin could decide this week. One option is to announce during Saturday's U.S. Army All-American Bowl in San Antonio, where some top players reveal their choices on national TV (NBC). Hamilton's Adam Myers-White did that two years ago, when he announced for Tennessee.

By Greg Powers, Ben has been dominant after a slow start. He said he knows where he wants to go but needs to discuss it with his mother...but may announce on saturday.

He said he knows where he wants to go but needs to discuss it with his mother

hmmm... Talk about reading way too much into this but I do not like the sounds of that.

I think it sounds like a good thing because I'm assuming he wants to go to OSU but maybe his mom is still selling ND just a little bit.

 

[craigblitz]

I just got the impression that after his visits with Tress his mom was ok with him going to OSU. I also think he is down to Florida and OSU and wants to make sure if it is ok with his mom to be so far away...

Like I said... Reading a bit too much into this I think

 

[CleveBucks]

The mother had originally pulled for ND due to proximity. Clearing things with her could mean somewhere other than ND.
