Idle thought on a Tuesday. What with Stud becoming HC at IMG, does anyone think he'll help tOSU recruit down there? Can see both sides to this coin, given the roasting he got here as the OL coach. Seem to recollect that Pepper Johnson coached there as well, but don't really know if his presence helped tOSU with the recruits at IMG. Expect someone with more info than I might know.

Honestly, thats the million dollar question right now. But there are a few factors to consider, because IMG isn't a regular HS HC position:
He's going to have so many coaches in his ear from everywhere, OSU is just another one. I'm sure LSU thinks he could help them too
Many of the kids who play for that vaunted national team are from all over the country and many already are leaning to schools already before enrolling at IMG, so there's only so much Stud can help

Heck, from the recruiting action am seeing, wish we could win the Natty every year on this basis alone. Reading all the s*** seeing from pressure from tOSU fanatics, about last year's teams, makes me wonder. Guess the final result was worth the stress, no? Do like the recruiting results, as well as the 'lists' of 5* players that at least want to see what makes tOSU so great. Probably some will decide they're not a fit, but did like the lamentation of Jordan Seaton, who opted for Colorado, about the lack of brotherhood, etc. And then Jermaine's reply 'cannot relate'! Hope tOSU keeps doing what they/we do.....Go Bucks!

Highly rated Tennessee Vols commit says he'd love to get an offer from the Ohio State Buckeyes​

Four-star wide receiver Tyreek King told 247Sports' Tom Loy this week that he'd love to receive offers from Ohio State and the Oregon Ducks.

Additionally, King was recently among On3's biggest risers in the national media outlet's updated recruiting rankings.
From On3: "King is one of the better athletes at receiver in the 2026 cycle. We had a chance to see him in person at the Nashville Under Armour camp as well. And we just came away impressed with the twitch and the explosion. He has been a productive, borderline dominant receiver at the high school level. And seeing him against that competition helped us understand where he stacks up in the group of wideouts. He’s a really explosive receiver who can line up all over the formation, can win both deep and underneath. And he’s dangerous with the ball in his hands." — Charles Power, On3 Director of Scouting and Rankings

Ohio State is one of the top schools in the nation when it comes to putting wide receivers in the NFL. If the Buckeyes decide to offer King, it could certainly lead to some concern for Tennessee fans.

Just sayin': I wonder if he is serious about Ohio State or just trying to get a "NIL bidding war" going with Tennessee.

not “one of the top schools.” It is the top and it really isn’t denatable right now. I wonder if this staff is even offering that kid attention since Hartline can essentially pick whoever he wants.

I don’t know. Hartline has turned me into a snob. He didn’t say he was working to earn it; just that he would love to have it. Psh

Of course he would. Having a Buckeye offer in hand (whether 'commitable' or not), means that the best of the best are looking at you, and with that, comes offers from the rest of the pack, with the thought 'well, if he's worthy of an tOSU offer' then we'd better take a look ourselves. THAT's high praise folks. Anyway, about the above, glad to see Indiana get some players worthy. 'Back in the Day', they were considered a MAC+ team. And as well, the Ohio players who weren't worthy/didn't get an Ohio State offer, went there. So, when Indiana and Ohio State played, was almost like an interstate game. There was a time as well, when Xichigan, and Xichigan State also took scads of Ohio players. Now, it seems that has shifted to Kentucky. Simply an idle musing from someone with alot of miles on them.
