The L would be more of my concern than the atmosphere. Our D -fence looking helpless may be another concern considering who we are going against for this kid. One bad game doesn't define the team, we have had three bad games though back to back to back. Combs is a great coach and recruiter. Haven't been sold on him being in control of the entire D.

Not really, look at @LordJeffBuck 's post above, his career development will mean much more than 1 game, or even the previous 2. LJsr has a proven track record, and has 3 former DEs that are the leaders of their respective defenses. Not many other DL coaches can say that. I still like our chances with Curry

I dont know if I my post came across as intended, I dont think he will have any issues of being developed at OSU or be extremely successful. LJsr is the best in the game and the reason we are in this race IMO. From what some other forums are saying the visit was a huge success and were impressed with how OSU responded to the L. I was sharing my opinion on the fact that to a top level recruits, most seem to desire to be on the winning side of things these days. You obviously see this in the pros, as the best players are going to be with the best. When BAMA and Clemson are the competition, having a consistent D I would think would win out more times than not. Hopefully we can figure the D out and have JT, Jack Sawyer and Curry all on the line at once. Talk about star talent.

Curry knows his school’s proud tradition well, and it extends beyond the past two seasons. Located in Greenwood, Indiana, Center Grove is the same program that produced former Ohio State defensive lineman and team captain Joel Hale in the 2011 class. Hale, who is now the CEO of the appropriately named Rushmen Logisitcs, is well aware his college alma mater is highly interested in his prep alma mater’s latest standout.

“I’ve talked to him a little bit,” Curry said of Hale. “He has a company called the Rushmen, so it’s kind of funny seeing that. He’s definitely a big Ohio State fan. He wants me to go there. A couple of weeks ago we exchanged messages on Twitter. He talks about coach (Larry) Johnson all the time and speaks of him as a good coach.”

But that doesn’t mean he’s neglecting his recruitment. Curry visited Ohio State on Sept. 11 for the Buckeyes’ home opener against Oregon and spent time with true freshman defensive ends Jack Sawyer and J.T. Tuimoloau while he was in Columbus.

“When I went on my visit, I sat down with Jack (Sawyer) and J.T. (Tuimoloau) in a room,” Curry said. “They just told me about it and how they fit in. They told me if I went there it would definitely be us three, honestly seeing that it would fit perfectly well. It was cool. Honestly just seeing that day-to-day basis from them after they’ve been there a few months is helpful.”
While seeing Sawyer and Tuimoloau get early playing time in their first years on campus is encouraging, that aspect by itself isn’t necessarily going to boost Ohio State over Curry’s other top five schools: Indiana, Oregon, Alabama and Clemson.

“Definitely getting out on the field to show in that freshman year getting those plays under my belt would be nice,” Curry said. “But honestly I can see myself getting into the program early anywhere I go with my top five, I feel like they all showed me how I can get in there early. That’s really not a factor.”
