It's all just a ploy
It's all just a ploy
He's silently committed to the Buckeyes still, but by saying he wants himself removed from the Buckeyes list, he will increase other schools interest, wasting coaches time until he goes to tOSU just to spurn all of us.

It's still February. Marvin Robinson at one point supposedly told OSU to quit recruiting him, yet his latest top 4 includes OSU. Kids will be changing their minds quite a bit.

Nevar!
Nevar!
In all seriousness, Ohio State has three quarterbacks for now, and Pryor may stay his senior season if his passing doesn't progress enough. Nonetheless, Joe Bauserman is a capable backup who will graduate the same year as Pryor, and Kenny Guiton is a good insurance policy. Really not a huge loss for the Buckeyes.
Though I will shrink a little in the pants if Nick Montana throws his life away ends up signing with Chubby Charlie and the Field Goal Factory

Correction... if Pryor goes
Correction... if Pryor goes
Correction... if Pryor goes down, OSU is in deep trouble at the Qb spot. Bauserman has done nothing to prove he is a capable backup, and Guiton is very lightly regarded.

O$U QB?
O$U QB?
I have read that the Suckeye faithful refer to this as "Pryor and Prayer."
February 16th, 2009 at 4:07 PM |
Er, not really
Er, not really
Bauserman is a back-up, but he has shown all the hallmarks of being relatively competent in his limited time on the field; he looked like the best QB on the field in the spring game, and was well-regarded coming out of high school.
Guiton is a probable redshirt, but given that he had a couple other BCS offers, I don't think he is our own Justin Feagin yet.

Do you guys know how big of an issue playing time would be for him? It seems like these days kids want to play early and often, but it hopefully wouldn't be possible here. It seems perfectly reasonable to me for him to come here and start his junior and senior years, but I'm not a big high school prospect.

Its only bc OSU isn't

Its only bc OSU isn't offering him. Prob not giving him any love. My cousin is from ohio, he liked OSU growing up, but began to hate OSU bc they wudnt look at his tapes. This was also in 90s so tapes were diff than now.

OSU is definitely going all
OSU is definitely going all
OSU is definitely going all in on Nick Montana right now. He is currently in Columbus and there are rumors that he will soon commit. If he ends up going elsewhere, OSU may really be in trouble at the position since they haven't offered or even showed a lot of interest in any other QBs.
It is pretty important that OSU add a good QB this year as well. It really seems like Guiton was offered as a practice arm and Bauserman's a solid backup but iffy as anything more than that. Unless OSU's counting on Braxton Miller to come in and start as a true freshman or redshirt freshman, the time is now to find Pryor's heir apparent.

If Tate or D Rob have a great
If Tate or D Rob have a great
If Tate or D Rob have a great year then I think it will probably be hard to lock this kid up. If I get what I want TF or DR will have a great year and will lock up the starting position which will probably cause DG to go elsewhere, but to find out that he is not going to tOSU is music to my ears. I don't know where his offers have come from thus far but I don't think he would even consider MSU because MD does not run a spread. PSU has Newsome who will probably start in 2010 so I think this kid will probably go to a different confrence. I would not be surprised to see this kid go to the SEC. they seem to be the teams getting the major coverage and getting all of the respect. Perhaps he may go west coast. I don't know if USC would be a good place for him if he is looking for playtime but Cal may be a good one for him. Tedford likes to run a spread.

If Forcier
If Forcier
emerges as the dominant starter, you sell Gardner on a D-Rob position switch + a redshirt and 2 years as the starter, with a possibility of a third if Tate bolts early to the NFL.
I realize thats a lot of leaps, but if Forcier finishes the 09 season looking like he's got a choke hold on the starting spot, then thats how you have to sell it.

Florida has already landed
Florida has already landed
Florida has already landed Trey Burton, who some Florida fans are calling the next Tebow. I wouldn't worry too much about them. LSU is definitely a threat, but as long as Michigan has a decent season (6-7 wins), we should be in a good position to land Gardner.
February 16th, 2009 at 7:47 PM |
LSU is in the same spot
LSU is in the same spot
we are in. Unless Russell Shepard is an immediate bust, they've got to convince Gardner that he won't sit for 3 years behind him and hope to beat out whoever comes after him for a year or two (at best) as the starter.
