I think Browning's commitment has more to do with his relationship with the coaches(and LB numbers) and not how many coaches showed up. I agree that not having a B1G championship can help, so can playing in a CCG and being the #1 team in the nation. It recruits itself, look at our 2017 class.Don't understand the animosity there.
It's a stone cold fact... Ohio State has a major advantage being able to let their head coach and assistants loose around the country to visit these kids for an entire week while Alabama's coaches are stuck on campus getting ready for one last big game. Browning's committment only cements that sentiment... no scarlet hued glasses needed.
Like MDBuck said... blessing in disguise not having to play in the B1G championship game
Another thing that draws recruits is NCs... And Bama has that in abundance. And that's why I'm always wary of them, no matter how many committed kids they have at the same position.Nothing could have powered recruiting this cycle better than the 2016 NFL Draft; having rookie Buckeyes in contention for DROY, OROY, and MVP #developedhere. 5* kids want to get to the NFL and be stars. Nobody can sell that better on the recruiting trail than this coaching staff right now. Not even Bama.
Although Alabama "leads" us in both Rivals and Scout rankings, we significantly lead everyone in star average. We average 4.31 stars per recruiting on Scout (next closest is #4 Georgia with a 3.94 average), and we average 4.19 star recruit on Rivals (next is #2 Alabama with an even 4 star average). The only reason that Alabama is ahead of us is that they have seven more commits...
Per Scout we have 5 five star recruits on our current 105 man roster.
We have 6 in our 16 man incoming class.
Not sure who else in town he's here to see besides Riep, but I can personally attest that Coach Coombs is in Cincinnati, right now(getting my haircut a few chairs down from him)
He got up, gave me a fist bump(for telling him Go Bucks when I saw him), and literally sprinted out the place!Tell him CFPBuckeye said "hi." He'll know what you're talking about.
Coomes is nuclear. Always full tilt.He got up, gave me a fist bump(for telling him Go Bucks when I saw him), and literally sprinted out the place!
Funny thing is, until he ran out, he was calm as all heck! Calm to the point that I had to show my barber a video of him getting extra hype with the DBs. He's a different guy when he's not in the football realm, and when almost know one knows him. Not a single guy other than the owner who was cutting his hair and me knew coach. They thought he was a crazy looking white guy, lolCoomes is nuclear. Always full tilt.
