Until the grading scale was changed a few years ago, I can remember onl6 Florida being the state with a higher scale (since it was alwasy the topic of conversation and created many complaints). Where a 94-100% was an A, and somehting like 86-93& was a B... absolutely ridiculous However, that was when I was just starting high school, so things may have changed at that level now that I am about to graduate from college.

I went to a plain sub school (Whitehall, OH) that went off of a 4.0 and I had friends that went to places like Hilliard Darby, Pickerington (was one high school at the time), Doublin Coffman, etc. that hated the higher grading scale. Now this was around the late 90s, early 2000's - so in Ohio its been around for a while.

Correct, most city schools go off of a 4.0 grade scale, where in private schools, or even suburb schools (ie: Pickerington, OH) will go a bit higher. For example, a 92% could equal to only a B/B+ in a private or sub school, but in a place like Beechcroft (OH) it would be a solid A/A-

At Watterson a 92 was an A-, 93+ and A
Also, the vast majority of schools use a 4.0 scale, curves and grade inflation will be different at each though...

I think the questions need to be where they will fit in next year, not will they go else where. :)

Don't get me wrong, I am confident they will make the right choice. I should have been more clear in my question- I was actually curious about the infamous "package deal" recruiting I have heard about. Not that it applies here, but I wanted to know if it was possible- Concerning their coming to Columbus.

I would be shocked if OSU didn't land Browning, Small and Rose...because OSU is a good fit for each kid individually...not because they are a package deal. pacakge deals are something schools like Cal and Arizona offer to recruits to try and get on a level playing field with bigger programs.

Ray's recruiting has gone almost exactly like Donte Whitner's did...
