'08 NJ LB Brendan Beal (Florida Signee - transfer to Minnesota)

The comments made in that article tend to suggest the actions at the Spring Game by a certain recruit either may not have been Brendan, or were not as bad as everybody else made them out to be. Do those with more knowledge of the situation still feel like he will be headed elsewhere, even though he does plan on making another visit to Columbus?

A) I still don't think he comes to OSU. USC or UF until I hear otherwise.

B) Personally, I think it might be time to let the whole Spring Game story go...whether it was Beal or not, no good can come from discussing it any further, especially if we actually do have a shot at landing him. It's like the Devoe and the whole one RB thing...bringing it up over and over again does not benefit anyone other than the other schools recruiting the prospect.

EDIT: That second comment is not directed at you personally BGriff...just wanted to make that clear. I am referring more to the scuttlebutt regarding those two stories on other message boards.

I saw he's transferring to PA to play his senior year.. I dont think we get Beal, but if decides he doesnt want to go far from home, and wants his family to come watch his games... I think OSU would be the choice...

So you never know.. I know he likes OSU and the coaches are working on him hard.. so a couple more visits to campus and maybe he decides to stay closer to home

Bethlehem, PA isn't exactly close to Columbus. 7-8 hours driving each way.

More on the transfer...USC and UF are still way out in front.

Like I said, until I hear otherwise I don't think we have much of a shot...regardless of what he told Kurelic.

Scout.com: Predictions

By Allen Wallace
National Recruiting Editor
Posted Aug 26, 2007

"During the pre-season, USC and LSU are ranked No. 1 and 2. They are both great programs. They probably have the best athletes in the country, but LSU probably has a bit more speed than USC," Brendan Beal said. "But I don't think that will matter. If they both get to the national championship I think USC would win. They have great athletes at every position and with J.D. Booty running things..."

Class cutters suspended

Bethlehem Liberty, the Post-Gazette's No. 2 team in PIAA Class AAAA behind Central Catholic, suspended four starters for cutting class at the end of the school day. But Liberty still rolled past Allentown Dieruff, 37-0.
One of the suspended starters was running back/linebacker Brendan Beale, considered one of the best players in the state. Dieruff came in with an 0-4 record.
"I know people will say we did that just because it was Dieruff, but those kids made a mistake," Liberty coach Tim Moncman told the Allentown Morning Call. "Hopefully, they won't make it again."
