7/12 commits rated 500+ nationally. It’s always a good thing when over 50% of your class are major projects. Especially when you have a coach who’s time and time again failed to develop players effectively

Remember that weird recruiting purgatory tOSU was in for several months back in 2011 between Tressel stepping down and Urban coming on? We struggled to draw much interest from top recruits and were taking a lot of 3 star in-state kids* because those kids wouod climb across a hundred yards of broken glass to play for Ohio State? Nobody else was overly interested because Fickell was an interim and nobody knew which direction we'd go for a new coach.
Well, tsun has been recruiting at the level for a couple of years now and it actually seems to be getting worse since Harbrau was basically given a year-to-year contract and is a bad fart in the wrong room away from getting canned.
* - in fairness to those 3* kids, a number of them became excellent players and were some key contributors to the 2014 NC Team. But, they were developed under Urban Meyer and his staff...

Who knew that reluctantly extending the contract of a coach who only reluctantly wants to be coaching there would have downstream consequences?

What happened to my ¤cash?
I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t a bit concerned about how bad it is up there. We want them to be embarrassingly bad, but not so bad that their administration needs to make changes.

Their administration has messed up everything they've done for the last 15 years. Bring it on...

At this point I don't feel like the changes would be positive. And I may be in the minority, but I don't think scUM cans Hairball anytime soon. If he beats MSU, it will buy him time. The admin knows that they're not close to OSU, and the gap is only widening.

I think the admin is definitely "content". After the Rich Rod and Hoke disasters they are cool with 3-4 losses per year. IDK if he can survive a disaster this season though. Recruiting is already becoming more and more difficult for him. a 6+ loss season would send that into even more of a spin, and i'm sure even the strongest of Harbaugh defenders could not continue to defend him.
He gets the COVID pass (though he shouldnt, everyone had to play in the same climate) for 2020 mess but that benefit of the doubt is gone for this season.

I dont see him losing more than 4 games in most years. Hairball will get scUM winning games they're supposed to, and he's recruiting good enough to stay a Mid tier to a little above in the conference. I think the school will be fine with that now. Essentially they will settle
