OH RB Todd Sibley (Pitt Signee)

I hate it wasn't a B1G school but Pitt is a perfect fit for him.
Come on now, be realistic. Most of the B1G still refuses to pay attention to recruiting. I'm sure if a number of schools(looking at you: NW, IU, Iowa, Wisky, Nebraska, etc) in the conference went after Sibley with some type of seriousness he would've considered them more seriously.

Since he committed to the Buckeyes, Ohio State added four-star running back JK Dobbins from Big 12 territory in March. Even with that pair in the fold, the search at tailback continued. Najee Harris, a Bama commit and the nation's top player according to multiple services, and Cam Akers, a five-star from Mississippi, each visited in the spring, highlighting the search for an additional ball carrier hadn't ceased.

Shortly thereafter we reported that Sibley, the state's 8th-ranked prospect, had been asked to take a grayshirt which would delay his enrollment to a later date. Eleven Warriors spoke with the 5-foot-11, 205-pounder and it was evident that the tailback was understandably flustered with the news.

"I felt disappointed. It was a huge letdown. To be committed for almost a year and remaining loyal the entire time," Sibley said. "(Playing at Ohio State) was the dream, so it was heartbreaking to hear it."

With the "grayshirt thing", I guess his decommitment is no big surprise here.
