2027 CA DL Marcus Fakatou (Verbal Offer)

So we saying that Ryan and LJsr put out the red carpet themselves? Figuratively of course. Anyway, not too certain anyone can best tOSU at putting 'on the dog' when it comes to officials. Lest we forget, Mark Pantoni is the artist behind all this. Day and the position coaches get the glory (in recruiting), but believe that Pantoni is the force behind the efforts (plus his staff), making everyone feel important. Teamwork as always wins the day. Go Bucks!

I don't follow recruiting too closely unless it's local kids that I know about coming up. It is interesting to see the comments in the recruit's tweet - folks using Wexner's relationship with Epstein against Ohio State. Seems like quite a stretch to connect anything like that back to the football program, and I wish it wasn't happening directly on the kids' posts.

He is one LARGE human being and does not look close to 300 pounds!!!
Yes, those were my thoughts exactly.

Yeah, well those Wexner allegations will continually follow OSU as long as his name is on so many buildings. Whether we like it or not, there's no escaping it. But its not like its going to be a deterrent to football players. If every school wanted to unveil their past transgressions, than I don't think there'd be a college to attend. Off the top of my head: the entire SEC's insanely blatant racism for decades(ole miss having what looking like a slave master as their proud mascot for decades), Ped St and the Sandusky/Paterno saga, MSU and Larry Nassar, the countless sexual abuse allegations at scUM, OSU wrestling scandal, Oklahoma football drug ring, Miami sex and drug scandals of the 80s and 90s, and the list can go on and on. Fans are quick to be sanctimonious when it's not their program and turn a blind eye to their own.

My bad, back to Marcus
