Re: Ohio State Football Recruiting

Who does Rich Rod have as his starting QB? With Mallet gone and Terrelle not coming, He looks kind of dopey now.

I had read somewhere that Rodriguez landed a player who was a QB/S in high school, but was projected to be a safety. My guess is unless Rodriguez goes with David Cone as his starter.

Re: Ohio State Football Recruiting

Anybody watch the press conference? About the 17 minute mark (on the video I saw) he was talking about schools that continued to talk to him. Paraphrasing what he said about Oregon, "Yeah, they've been tex...er calling me a lot." He gave one of those big "OOOPS" faces right after he said it. I'm wondering how many recruiting violations might come out of his recruitment for all the schools. Especially texting since it was recently banned by the NCAA but sounds like it's still in heavy use.

I was playing in a high school golf tournament about 10 years ago and OSU's golf coach came over and was talking about watching a golf tournament up in Toledo. He said that he was wearing his OSU gear and realized that he wasn't in Buckeye country rather UM country. I have always felt Toledo was similar to Cincinnati in regards to fan support to OSU, not nearly as fanatical as the rest of the state.

I'm not so much excited about him coming to tOSU as I am about him NOT going to Michigan

I am going to have to dig out the old Buckeyes fight song and play it a few times.

I just hope the new guy has a license to hunt gators, bulldogs and tigers.

It's something that is going to be impossible to enforce. Some coaches may take the high road, but you will have some who will go to whatever means necessary, even if it means being caught.

Re: Ohio State Football Recruiting

"The University of Ohio State" line was an inside joke aimed at fellow recruit Lamarr Thomas. When Lamarr declared he goofed up and said that. The rest of the recruiting class has poked fun at him since.
