'13 FL P Johnny Townsend (Florida Signee)

[el mastiff]

Townsend is the only player who hasn't sent in his LOI (besides EzE).

I wonder if he is afraid that we'll never have to punt the ball again?

I wonder if Ohio State is having number problems.

 

[NJ-Buckeye]

Still waiting on punter Johnny Townsend's LOI. Unless, of course, Ohio State has decided that they will no longer have the need to punt.

...

11W reporting that he's expected to send it in at noon.

There is a numbers problem. They are 81 total. Townsend would be 82. Elliott would be 83. They can still resolve the problem up until the first day of fall practice or the first day of fall semester whichever comes first. So they can still have 83 today. They need a punter next year, so hopefully this is not an issue.

I have zero inside info, but think the false speculation is ridiculous. Townsend is a Buckeye, is not having his scholarship pulled, and is not wavering.

There is still a numbers problem. But it doesn't have be resolved today. And it definitely won't be resolved by yanking a scholarship on signing day.

Preach on...

All of this.

So what do? The problem will eventually have to be addressed. So if the coaching staff decides to do nothing at the moment, won't they be forced to pull scholarships later?

I agree.

I have zero inside information, but my guess the staff already knows there's guys that are looking elsewhere for playing time or to be closer to home or whatever.

I bet there will be more attrition, someone will transfer

I recall reading on rivals a few weeks ago that 2-3 players had transferred/dropped out of the program.

Were they all walk ons? And I just realized this isn't the 2013 discussion thread. Sorry for being OT.

Umm......

 

[OH10]

Well... I guess we really are going to need to score on every possession.
