Not a problem. Sometimes there is info overload that makes it impossible to read everything.

I remember someone on here saying that he liked hearing Thomas saying that his commitment wasn't going to change. I kind of laughed it off. It's the same thing that Conley, Cook and numerous kids have said.
You can't really take what these kids say as fact. You just have to wait for the final outcome.

It isn't going to change. Think of it as a "get off my back" type of thing. Look at the **** Indiana fans gave him (including that joke of a writer Decker). Would you want to listen to that for 3 more years either???? He knew where he wanted to go and his parents were fine with it until people started giving him crap because they lost out. He'll be a Buckeye again IMO...

I certainly don't have a problem with this. Better now than a week before signing day, eh?
Take some time, look around, make sure all options have been considered. Nothing at all wrong with that. Just hope he comes to the same conclusion when all is said and done.

Hotmic, you might have a point. Maybe he didn't know what he was getting into. That article was a joke, I agree.

This is not an issue. I feel a bit for the kid. The pressure from everyone must have been so intense after his verbal. Matta will still continue to work his magic reassuring Thomas that everything is cool.
It is my opinion that the only thing that can change the end result would be Thad Matta.

and
"It ain't gonna change," Thomas told the station. "I committed. That's where I'm going to be and I'm going to go there. It ain't gonna change."
The bananas love that kind of talk.
haha, this all proves that once again, you can't trust college/highschool kids when they say things in the media.

This recruitement has 3 years to run.....personally this sounds like the pressure of not selecting Indiana made him and his family back off......this will be a roller coaster but I would bet on Matta winning in the end. It's to early to jump off the ledge.

I am not worried here...
I think at this point it has a lot to do with the pressure that he is feeling and he just feels that he will take some trips and wait a while...
That fact that he thought enough of his to committ, is the best thing in my mind, b/c that puts us as the leaders...

The Gordon situation is bound to be referenced numerous times over the next three years (especially by desperate IU fans). But I will say this much...I would have liked OSU chances had this one come down to Signing Day '10. Add to that the fact that he has already named OSU as his leader (by offering a verbal and then retracting) I still like OSU chances given Matta's track record. Long way to go, but you can't be sitting any prettier than the Buckeyes are at this point.

Not so fast, Buckeyes: Luers star wants to keep his options open
By Greg Jones
High school sports editor
Apparently DeShaun Thomas' commitment to Ohio State isn?t so secure, for now.
More than a week after making an oral commitment to the NCAA runner-up Buckeyes and coach Thad Matta, Thomas has decided to look at more college suitors.
I know what school I want to go to,? Thomas said. The other schools didn't think it was fair I made the choice so quick.?
After taking an unofficial visit to the school, Thomas made the commitment. But after speaking with his father and Bishop Luers coach James Blackmon, Thomas decided to decommit to Ohio State.
They're still very good about the decision regarding Ohio State, Blackmon said. It could be the place he commits to in a couple of years.
He wanted to visit some more schools. If they had to decide today or tomorrow, they would choose Ohio State. This is just an opportunity to visit others.
