Some notes regarding Carter and recruiting from Birm Spencer:
Bringing this thread back because it's the best place to say when a player like Jarquez Carter flashes early, often and consistently it sheds some light on why Ohio State maybe wasn't willing to go into seven figures for a player like Deuce Geralds. There's not much difference in the two and Carter is putting himself into "must play, will play, will need major raise in December" territory and that was obvious over the summer for the powers that be.

It's also a reminder that the Ohio State scouting department is the best in the country at what it does because those folks saw Carter as a top-tier player and he was ranked outside the top 200 in the Rivals Industry Rank because ESPN and 247 did not even rank him. On3 had him at 169 overall. Rivals had him at 83

Which is why "pay this guy what he wants" is not the answer for every recruit. Ohio State knows what its doing!

I don’t mean to put this in this thread specifically, but why are all the transfers going into the alumni forums instead of the college football forums.

General consensus is that alumni got a degree at the school. I get it for the kids that are good enough to get to the NFL after 3 without a diploma. Carter’s been here for 2 semesters. I’m not trashing him or anything, but he ain’t no alumni.

You don't need to graduate to be considered an alumnus. You simply need to complete one full term (semester/quarter).

Great pickup by Miami….wont start next year but adds nice depth. I think he’ll be a menace his junior season.

I continue to give Miami a little bit of credit…..they’ll punt next year….wont have enough to make a run. They’re setting up for the following year when their defensive and offensive lines will be rebuilt.

Again, it’s fun to follow the different strategies…..Miami is building a roster up for an every 3rd year type run.

So, you’re saying he transferred to go sit behind someone else for a year? Because he wasn’t getting any playing time here?
