Analysis of the 2005 Recruiting Classes (mega-merge)

[CaboWabo]

Where will the 05 OSU recruiting class rank?

and is there any noticeable effects from the ESPN snow job?

USC/OSU 2006 Rose Bowl

btw I'm never wrong!

Welcome back Goux,

Recruiting is looking anywhere from Top 10 to Top 5 to Top 3 depending on the close.

I haven't seen much fallout from the ESPN garbage...beyond losing one of the best ADs in the nation :(

Geiger

That was totally crap man...I couldn't believe when I found out about Geiger..I was in Miami at the time and there were 5 of us SC fans..

None of us have ever thought much of MoC, but we all were shocked that this bs issue cost a good and loved man his job.

Here's to MoC running a 5.2 forty in the NFL combines.

OSU will always recruit well and i'm happy to know that everything is cool...That was one impressive bowl victory too..I think people will be seeing a lot more of those type of performances from OSU next season..


argh, 4 more months til spring ball.

and here is to USC going undefeated next season...until they play tOSU in the Rose Bowl next year

 

[casey_buckeye]

If there is any justice in the world, Ohio State and USC will meet up in the Rose Bowl next year! The USC "dynasty" will come down just like the Miami "dynasty"!!!

2006 Rose Bowl

Yeah, I hope we can meet up, but any time you replace a QB like Leinart, there's no guarantees...even though we really do have a cupcake schedule next season.

I didn't think it was difficult this past season, but 2005 is really going to be easy.

Oh well, more blasts about SC football and the schedule.

Whomever has doubts about SC after that oklahoma game, just needs to get a life.

We did lose Bemoli because of the ESPN stuff.

Bemoll has come out and said that it was mainly the distance that made him question his commitment. Then the ESPN garbage pushed it over the edge. So, I guess I'd like to think those jerks didn't have a major impact.

i doubt them. i doubt they could play like that all season. oh look, im right

 

[RugbyBuck]

I had not really watched SC this year, other than the game against my other OSU alma mater. I was profoundly impressed by the Orange Bowl performance. Well done, Troy.

 

[JC10380]

You can't doubt SC afte that Oklahoma game. They would have smashed Auburn and Utah. No comparison.

 

[BuckeyeNation27]

That would be a great game next year......looks like Matt's probably coming back...

i thought he was delaying his decision. and before that i thought it was expected for him to go. what have you heard?

Yeah I took a look at their schedule, it's about the same as this year. The only losable games are @Cal and @Arizona State. Cal seems like they'll have problems reloading Rodgers and Arrington, but ASU may give them a fight. I still like USC to win out though.

 

[BGriffBuckeye]

AZ St has to replace Andrew Walter, and I am not sure who they had backing him up. Cal will have trouble replacing Rodgers, but Nate Longshore is a kid they brought in last year who could be a top-notch college QB. Maybe not in 2005, but later one he could be really good. They do have Marshawn Lynch though. He will thrive on that team, look out for him. Sleeper Heisman pick, he could be that good. Probably won't win it, but will give the other favorites a run for their money. Cal could have a nice class this year coming in though. They could get 2 nice WR (DeSean Jackson and Austin Usher), they already got Felder (we all know how much we wanted him), and some top DBs. They are definitely reloading that squad.
