ESPN is really low on OSU's commits so far.  It's crazy how Berger, for instance, is the #2 OLB to Scout, but the #26 OLB to ESPN.  What did Meyer do to them before he left?

Even if/when we get Peppers, this still stings. I'm glad some aren't afraid to admit the loss.

Hopefully the poor kid recovers from the blow to the head that he must have sustained and turns Blue.

Future UM transfer?

Does anyone see Webb as a future transfer opportunity?  It seems to me like he will be burried on the depth chart until his senior year.  Does anyone see him beating out Apple/Conley/Burrows?  If he gets burried and frustrated, why not come back home?  Granted if we somehow land both Westphal and Peppers we not have room either, but can we be that lucky?

No.

In your hypothetical he's not good enough to make the field for Ohio, is Michigan's defensive backfield so bad that we want guys that can't crack their two-deep? I would argue it is not. 

Plus Webb is really good. He'll compete with and be right in the starting mix with all their talented DBs.

Which would he beat out?

Of those three (Apple, Conley, and/or Burrows), which would he beat out?  Do you think he'd be satisfied being a nickel or 2-deep player and only starting one year?

Even if he does transfer, what makes you think he will transfer to Michigan?  Osu to Michigan or Michigan to Osu transfers are rare to begin with.  The last one I can think of is Justin Boren and that came during the coaching change.

In most cases coaches might restrict the schools that a player can transfer to.

To answer you question what makes me think he'd go to Michigan?...because he goes to Cass Tech, similar to Boren in that he went to Pickerington.

Pick one. He's just as talented as all three guys you listed. Not a single one of these guys has played a down of college football so its quite a bit to assume Webb can't be as good or better than any or all of the other three.

He's younger

Well, he's younger so he is a year behind them, Apple and Conley are quite highly ranked, even higher than Webb, and Burrows is just a few spots behind him the ESPN 150, and they are all a little taller and bigger (minus Conley who is only taller), which is sort of why I was surprised he wanted to go there in the first place.

If they're all that talented,

If they're all that talented, they'll find a way to get them all on the field.  Any one of those guys could play safety if need be.  And if they're all so good that Webb can't get on the field, my guess is one or more leave a year early for the NFL, leaving Webb two years to start.

Webb's 2014Bucks Website?!?

Maybe I am way off base.  Apparently Webb's mother has created a website to help OSU recruit after he saw how well Morris used social media to recruit last year.  Have a look...

http://2014bucks.com/

It may not have been a good idea to allow comments.  How long do you think this goes before it gets mobbed by angry Michigan fans?

Strong Start

Maybe someone can correct me on this, but it seems to me that Harris is ranked a bit low as compared to other sites/analysts. However, this is yet another awesome start for Hoke and Co. I was especially excited about Speight since there was some intial questioning about his worthiness around these parts.

Tough to stick if you are close to the 150 mark

Knowing how rankings go unless Cole hits the circuit hard he will fall of the 150 list after a few updates.  We had several players last year that were at one point on the 150 list that did not end up there at the end.

It's only natural that numerous players who are ranked highly will drop as the process continues.  When you're ranked up there, there's almost nowhere to go except down.
