The 11W forum pointed out that this recruitment is similar to Caleb Downs last year, with Ohio State occupying opposite sides of each.

When Downs started receiving projections to Bama, his activity around Ohio State on social media went through the roof to keep things interesting.

Scott’s attention for scUM similarly escalated significantly when Ohio State predictions started coming in.

Mission accomplished; everyone is on edge here. Hopefully it will turn out the same as well, with the initial feelings coming through in the end, with Ohio State closing the deal as strongly as possible for good measure.

Scott is definitely trying to create some drama around his upcoming commitment, so expect a rollercoaster in the next 1-4 weeks (expecting a July commitment as of now). I am standing by the OSU pick unless I hear otherwise. Visit went great and there should be a lot of optimism unless ttun somehow gets themselves back in it before Scott commits.

Birm calls out how thirsty Michigan is in this recruitment as something he’s never seen before, specifically mentioning the coordinated effort to get periphery characters like Charles Woodson to tweet at Scott.

Carpenter mentions Marcus Ray and this tweet as a part of that effort.



Carpenter then humorously recalls a radio interview with him where Ray candidly reflected that he’d probably be better off now if he had chosen to go to Ohio State.

I wouldn’t put it past Carpenter to actually pull the audio from that interview (if it still exists) and share it with people of influence like he mentions. :lol:

We definitely haven’t seen anything like this recruitment in a long time and my interest is maxed out.

Hopefully Ohio State can close the deal. In this show Ward also mocks Harbaugh for going from swaggering confidence about Ohio players to begging for more NIL money. And although I don’t think that is the most important factor in this recruitment, it can certainly be something that gets the Buckeyes over the finish line in front, which Ward might be alluding to there.

Reminds me of a story Sonny Spielman used to tell us at OSU camp about Chris Spielman having his recruitment come down to OSU and ttun. Sonny emphasized he wanted Chris to make a truly independent decision even though he was a Buckeye fan, and Chris supposedly told his dad he wanted to go to ttun. To which Sonny said "BS, you're going to Ohio State". At least that's how Sonny told it and it got a laugh whether that was really the case or not.

Anyways, I am thinking Scott doesn't put his dad through that and picks OSU on his own accord. But I'll say I was hoping for early July to allow less time for ttun to (skunk)weasel their way back in for real.

I rmemebr Chris telling that story on a Buckeye documentary for The Game. One of my favorite recruiting stories ever!

I like people's optimism, but there is enough smoke out there to make mane OSU pundits confused on where he is heading as of late.

I think OSU really did their best this past weekend, and hopefully he picks OSU.

I am sure his dad will consider a full scholarship with a major program to be a birthday gift, so people should be careful drawing conclusions from that.

I have read that Scott likes TTUN NFLish defensive scheme, and the possibility of early playing time.

With that said, I am cautiously optimistic about OSU getting the pick, but would not be surprised if he chooses TTUN.

Still alot of time.
