I will follow Birm to whatever place he goes. He treats the players with respect and has their trust, he clearly has an in with the coaching staff, and his work values being informative over being clickbait. He's the only guy I follow, and I've never been out of the loop.
Absolutely...
The Scoop and the rest will honestly be put out of business by Letterman row. They always have former Buckeyes on and more importantly Urban Meyer is behind them.
Enough about our media though lol...
IMO this kid is a must get.
What Emeka Egbuka gives Ohio State on field
Though he’s not played a senior season yet, Emeka Egbuka is a rare physical talent with home-run hitting ability every time he touches the football. He’s fast — running the 40-yard dash in less than 4.45-seconds — but smooth and well put together. Egbuka’s greatest asset on the outside is his body control, as he shows a unique ability to locate the football and adjust to it without losing speed.
Egbuka isn’t just a raw athletic talent, though. He’s incredibly productive and has amassed almost 4,000 yards receiving in his three years of high school football to go along with more than 60 scores. He can strike as a return man and would probably be an All-American defensive back if he allowed himself to focus on that side of the ball. Egbuka is also viable baseball prospect, but his future is all about football.
Strong, athletic and explosive, Egbuka can line up on the outside or in the slot and be equally dangerous. A cerebral, calculating talent, the 6-foot-1, 210-pound Egbuka is a player that some close to the Ohio State program have compared to current Washington Football Team star Terry McLaurin because of his athletic profile combined with his off-the-field characteristics.
“He can do a little bit of everything,” Steilacoom coach Colby Davies told Lettermen Row ahead of his decision. “He’s been a team leader since his freshman year and understands how important he is to our team. He’s the first in and last out type and he’s very coachable. He wants coaching.
“He chose Ohio State because he knows that Brian Hartline is going to coach the hell out of him. That’s what he wants. He wants to be the best and will work all day to make sure he is.”
There is going to be a lot of attention paid to Egbuka because of his recruiting profile, but he’s well-equipped to handle it and the plan to enroll early at Ohio State should make the transition easier. Expect to see this potential star moving around a lot during his freshman season, similar to the development track that the Buckeyes have laid out for 2020 top-ranked receiver Julian Fleming.
