2018 tOSU Recruiting Discussion

[BuckTwenty]

So this is what I've got as far as announcement/signing times of note to Ohio State fans thus far today:

Micah Parsons -- 9:45am (signed with Penn State)
Jackson Carman -- 11:00am (signed with Clemson)
Emory Jones -- 11:30am (signed with Florida)
Cameron Brown -- 12:15pm
Cade Mays -- 2:30pm
Brenton Cox -- 2:50pm
Alex Williams -- 3:00pm
Anthony Cook -- 3:30pm
Jaiden Woodbey -- 8:30pm


Anyone else? Can't find times for Tyreke Smith, Jayson Oweh, Solomon Tuliapupu, Nicholas Petit-Frere, Tyler Friday, etc.

Tyreke is waiting till the next signing period, IIRC

Oweh is secretly signing and not announcing until later. Good luck with that.

And opposing QBs

Why do you keep asking me about that?!!11!

Er...


p.s. My mother, grandmothers, mother-in-law all get 1-7 questions about my involvement per week. Not one of them lives in Ohio. One grandmother lives near Missouri

Wiltfong with the Jackson Carmen Crystal Ball to Clemson. Both he and Gleitman say he isn't coming to Ohio State.

Ummm... wow.

That tells each that Urban did not take the Early Signing period as seriously as he should have.

Yeah. Urban is clueless. #fireurban

Herbie even said in his defense tweet that they come in contact with recruits on the Game Day set every weekend. This is happening across the country each weekend at high profile Universities and nothing has been mentioned before. It is only news bc it happened at tOSU, IMHO.

The only difference may be the fact that it was "organized/allowed" to happen by OSU staff. Again, I am sure it is happening everywhere else too.

He's also not alumni on those other campuses.

To be fair, isn't that what it was pitched as originally? Regardless, he'll learn from it going forward. I'm not exactly worried about recruiting.

 

[sparcboxbuck]

because it's a superstar talent at a huge position of need that was unceremoniously dropped.

Why he was dropped is being compartmentalized if it's even known by the writer.

Any other questions?

What's the over / under on number of days past 12/20/2017 before it's leaked to the twitters? I put it 12:01 AM 12/24/17.

I really don’t think enough fans have taken Urban seriously when he signed with tOSU and said he was approaching things with a different mind set.

The link I posted early today to the article when he talks about learning from Belichick “to only coach players he WANTS to coach” just reinforces this new approach.

 

[OH10]

No one is saying that. It's fair criticism. The guy makes a ton of money. This is bad closing on his part, which is unusual for him. Guessing it's the early signing period throwing him off.
