Its disappointing to see kids throw away literal years of relationship building with coaches and staffs for a 48 hour romance with a new suitor. But you also see stuff like this in real life - that's why guys leave their wives for strippers (with or without pet monkeys)

That's recruiting for you..... NIL has created a whole new aspect of the game - take the guaranteed payday today instead of the potentially much larger one down the road.

I'm sure the NIL school's recruiting pitch won't be either/or. The school with the NIL money convinces the recruit that he can have both at the NIL school.

Concerns about coaching staff changes? Shouldn't incoming recruits want changes from this staff?

I'm wondering whether this decommit has something to do with a coaching change that is yet to be officially announced.

Both of you make way too much sense for these fora.

Ricart vs McCombs in the used car dealer cage match?

Ricart wins. They have the used car factory.

614 in the ‘80s and ‘90s will understand.

I can’t imagine this type of thing will result in a cohesive locker room committed to the grind of being a champion… thinking Kentucky basketball style only in a much tougher sport to cherry pick elite players to take you over the top.

Fickell didn't register a big uptick and recruiting and if I remember neither did Jim Tressel. HCs don't always get recruiting wins, especially last minute ones. I don't see Veneables getting many last minute commits in OU either.
If Knowles can make a competent defense who isn't afraid to tackle in '22, then the recruits will come in. Osu has talent, and this was a very good class, but having a good coordinator will make all the difference in the world

Tress had 20 days to glue together the 2001 class and it was still top 15. 2002 was Top 4 nationally - even without Drushaun Humphrey (RIP) and with a bunch of future long time NFLers rated 3 stars. Hard to compare to the last Cooper class because there were barely ratings at that point.
