LB Raekwon McMillan (New England Patriots)

"So, Ohio State is pretty much your leader?"

Kwon: yes sir, I think BAMA and Ohio State are probably my leaders.

Nobody asked about Bama Kwon.

Here we go again......

Let me "here we go again" your "here we go again"

 

[Buckeye86]

Hinesville, GA to Gainesville, FL
188 mi, 3 hours 10 minutes

Hinesville, GA to Clemson, SC
251 miles, 5 hours 15 minutes

Hinesville, GA to Tuscaloosa, AL
443 mi, 7 hours

Hinesville, GA to Columbus, OH
710 mi, 11 hours 20 minutes

There's obviously a significant jump in distance and time to Columbus, but it's not like he's going to be able to drive home for the weekend regularly from Bama or even Clemson given the distances involved (and it's not like he'd even be able/allowed to in the first place).

That should be a pretty easy concern to overcome with a little bit of time and explanation from some of the southern players on Ohio State's roster.

When is Kwon scheduled to announce? If it's signing day, call me when it's over.

I'd be more worried about......

You know, Coach Meyer, if he was still at Florida, I think I?d be committed to Florida right now.

Than this.....

Yes sir. I think Alabama and Ohio State are probably my leaders, with Clemson up there, too.?

Multiple trips to Florida over the last couple weeks.....as they say.....watch what they do, not what they say.

Then that's obviously a good sign :). And before anyone jumps the gun & suggests I'm calling him a Gator, I'm not lol. I still think he ends up a Buckeye.....

it was a leading question on my part to try and derail any notion of a gator lock.

BN$--5-star McMillan visits Gators again

Raekwon says the visit impressed his parents but he still has no order amongst Ohio State, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and Clemson.

No matter how much or how early an OOS recruit gushes over OSU, I try to keep low expectations until they finally sign on the dotted line. Really hope Raekwon ends up a Buckeye but as we saw with Derrick Green, sometimes it just doesn't work out. Best to keep your expectations neutered.

The Derrick Green situation was nothing like the McMillan situation. From what I've read Ohio State backed off of recruiting Green.

IMHO, that is 99.9999999999% of why he chose Michigan.

Yeah they backed off because they wanted only 1 RB in the class and Elliott filled that. Different than McMillan who is in a position that we have a need for. I don't see the staff backing off his recruiting, especially since the sec is starting to ratchet up their recruiting of him

 

[zebiraross]

This is as good of outcome as we could reasonably expect at this point. Especially considering he visited Florida the last 2 weekends in a row.
