Kids are getting so much smarter on preserving their bodies. The end game is(and always has been) getting to the league and providing for your family. The collegiate institution is the step to get there. I'm starting to think that 2 of 3 of Pryor, Edwards or Henderson is a real possibility now

The above 22 recruits would have an overall 247 Composite score of 319.39, with an average per recruit of 95.45

EDIT (03/14/2020):

Evan Pryor up to 50% Ohio State crystal balls (from 40%), with Bill "Bank" Greene scrying for the good guys. Looks like Pryor is "in" unless the staff wants to slow play him in favor of Donovan Edwards and/or TreVeyon Henderson.

Devonta Smith up to 100% Ohio State crystal balls (from 50%), with all 8 forecasters weighing in for the Buckeyes. It's a matter of "when" not "if".

 

[Buckeye1]

I think the staff will take him right now since we need two...besides, he and Edwards seem to want to play together. He hinted as much about coming to OSU together.

 

[MGMT]

No fifth DL? Thought I read the staff wanted 5.

Big bummer to miss out on Hancock; also seems like Goodwine, Adeleye and one or two others are tending away, but that’s just based on speculation on my account.

Maybe Coombs works magic on Grimes

Could you move Egbuka up to 50% in addition to Tuimoloau and Davis getting a little bump. It might not be accurate but it sure would make me feel better.

Acc. to Bill Green the Buckeyes either have or will be in touch. With him having only 1 yr. left and being immediately eligible he would seem to be a pretty good fit.

Are teams permitted to conduct tryouts and/or medical exams of players in the transfer portal? Asking for a friend, of course.

Right now you cannot get a person on campus and even then I do not know if you can "work out" or give a medical exam to a player that is in the portal.

It’s a good thing that docs can talk on a phone while maintaining social distancing.

Ellis posted at 11W that they’ll be at 13 soon. Buzz seems to be growing that they’ll be adding a couple more soon.

I’m starting to get the feeling that the two RBs are going to be Pryor and Henderson. Can’t go wrong with any combo of the three, but my preference is Henderson plus either one of the others.

Although, I look at the likely destination if they don’t go to Ohio State.

Edwards - TTUN
Henderson - Clemson
Pryor - UNC

So with that said, Henderson and Edwards would be ideal, imo. But again, I’d be thrilled to have any combo of the three.

Whatever keeps 1 of the 3 away from Clemson ... I'm all for

From what I’ve read, Henderson soured on Clemson because they wanted him on defense initially.

Things can always change, but I wouldn’t say Clemson is where he’d go.
