tOSU Recruiting Discussion

Wad, when is the next "dead period"?
I think it is December 12th through January 11th.

@ant80 Wade and Dobbins are enrolling early. Not sure about Cage but I don't think he is.

@CFPBuckeye fired up in a good way. They could get two but I see LSU as the more likely landing spot for Wilson right now. But that could change as LJ Sr. and Coach Meyer continue to a build a relationship with Wilson and his family. Tufele looks like he will be a Utah/OSU/Michigan battle and I like where OSU is positioned. I'm not one for percentages because a kid is either coming to your school or he isn't. I understand attaching percentages to confidence levels but I think it is wishy washy and gives people a false sense of hope. All the talk of Trey Smith being 40% or 60% to OSU in the end means nothing because he will 100% be enrolling early at Tennessee and 0% enrolling early at OSU.

Recruiting guys - with the likely departure of Fickell, possibly Combs - how does this impact any of the current commits and targets... also on the Offensive side if Warinner leaves and takes Beck (dont like his play calling but his recruiting is undeniable)

Have to weather the storm every year. It's the price you pay for hiring great assistant coaches. With Pantoni and Meyer I don't see too many issues if Fickell or Coombs move on.
I thought this would be the case just wondering because sometimes its the assistant coach they really commit to... In our case its likely not AS big of an issue.

Okudah is done. OSU leads for Wilson. They'll get Bolden if they want him.

This late surge for Darnay Holmes is absurd.
Quoted from the Tate Martell thread, but I thought this belongs here. tOSU leading for Wilson is news to me. Who do you see this class end up with? Is Tufele a possibility if Wilson commits? In that case, will Cage bail out or will we end up with 4 DTs? How about Bell?

I'm by far not an expert' but from following threads and other sites. It's either/or for Wilson and Tufele(with a better shot at Tufele, IMO). Only 3 DTs will be taken. And Bell is probably out. Though the way this staff recruits, all of this could change in an hour

OSU leads 2 months from signing day. That recruitment is just beginning.

Tufele has always been possible but not probable. Utah has been and remains the favorite. In the extremely unlikely event that they got both Tufele and Wilson, I think Cage would be out.

Bell and Bolden probably require other recruitments to go sideways to get in, though that's debatable. Sheffield is 50/50 to OSU and suddenly Holmes is a very real possibility.

With the projections at DB I could see Hooker coming in to tell Meyer he was coming back...

..... and Meyer refusing to renew his schollie.
