LB/DB De'van Bogard (R.I.P.)

Glenville defensive back De'Van Bogard said he first heard about OSU on Twitter, then went to ESPN.

"I'm really not surprised or angry because I knew it was coming," said Bogard, who will run track in the spring for the Tarblooders. "We've still got three or four years at Ohio State. I knew we'd get hammered, but not as crucially."

Like his fellow recruits, Bogard sees time healing all wounds.

"It's a big deal, but not a big deal," he said. "It's a one-year bowl ban. It's not bad at all to me. It could be way worse."

Sounds like an incoming freshman.

"It's a relief so we can know what we are dealing with and there won't be any surprises when we come in," said Cleveland Glenville four-star safety De'van Bogard, who committed to Ohio State in June.

"It's really a small negative because we can get through that. They are trying to break us? that's all that is. We have a great new coach and once we get off this bowl [ban], we'll be all right."

Not the time to be playing with fire... more guys out there that we are interested in and have a good chance with than spots. Hopefully for Devan's sake he has this visit approved... also, I'd be surprised if USC even has a spot for him with their limited schollies.

Didnt we say the same thing for Aundrey Walker? I don't know if he would be likely to flip, but with Walker being there I could possibly see that as a positive for USC, especially if they were good friends.

I'm laughing if he does commit to USC because it would be so similar to Walker, but either way I am not concerned about it.

This. Also, SC had a lot of higher rated secondary players in their backyard that they couldn't pursue as hard due to limited room.

If it's an official, I don't see USC spending the money to fly Devan out there with no intention of trying to work something out, what sense does that make?

aren't they restricted to only taking 15 guys this year? if so, they have 12 right now. it seems to be a stretch to think that they can squeeze in someone like bogard.

Something like that... but again, why would they spend the money to fly him out there if it was that cut and dry?
