I think this one might be a little harder of a battle for us then some originally thought...

Illinois is making inroads into Ohio and what they are selling lots of kids are taking notice...

I agree. Hope I'm wrong of course.

Credit Coach Wolford...the Illini fans are constantly singing his praises on RP and talking about what a great job he has done in NE Ohio...

What exactly are they selling that OSU cannot offer? Playing time?

Playing time, be part of a rising program, chance to be a star. I think the "rising program" is a huge thing. It gives people the chance to be a big part of something new and special.

It really has nothing to do with what they are selling that tOSU cannot offer, it just comes down to relationships that they are making, and what they are building there...

Now back to Melvin, before the elitist start getting restless...

Just a thought, but if he is a verbal already why would he being talking about a final decision????

I was thinking the same thing....clearly doesn't seem like a commitment

 

[CoosMeister]

Doug Worthington did the same thing. Hopefully he switches but he did already give his word in one direction..

not quite the same. I think Doug maintained he was committed all along, but his mom, or other family member wanted him to check out some other schools to be sure.

Melvin's dream school is tOSU, and he committed to the Illini before the end of his Junior year...now his dream school is offering, not only did he visit his dream school, but he mentioned no timeline for a "final decision"

That committment is soft as charmin.

Not to mention that DW only looked around was because of the MoC fiasco.

 

[crazybuckfan40]

Yup you guys hit on what I was thinking...

Doug always maintained being committed, which is what Fellows is saying, but the thing is DW never said anything about needing to make a final decision...
