Multiple Sources: Dunn Sticking With OSU
Just to clear this up, as I'm sure the question about Bri'onte Dunn potentially opening back up will be asked several times:
Dunn and Pittman both say they're sticking with OSU.

That's OSU's main guy on Scout. Other sources are saying the same thing.

Who wouldn't want to be Urban Meyer's next great collegiate running back? I mean, if history shows us anything, its that Urban Meyer produces top notch, pro-style running backs.

the list is so exclusive, there's nobody on it.
December 20th, 2011 at 4:15 PM ^
I know it's a really bad pun but I really don't care anymore. We have talent, we'll keep getting talent and if he's all wishy-washy I don't really want him around. Happy that fans of the school in Ohio are crying and I wouldn't trade Hoke and company for Urb's or anyone else for that matter. Go Blue!

Why does it sting when a moderator I've never met labels my post as overrated? C'mon, it wasn't that bad.
December 20th, 2011 at 4:22 PM ^
December 20th, 2011 at 4:42 PM ^
See. Feels like the first day of school. Thanks all for the knowledge.
December 20th, 2011 at 4:25 PM ^
December 20th, 2011 at 4:33 PM ^
but you obviously aren't aware that everyone with over 100 points can moderate your post. Really strong chance a moderator didn't neg you.
December 20th, 2011 at 4:05 PM ^
Please for the love of god, no more freakin Dunn threads!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HES THE ENEMY!!! WE WANT TO KILL HIM!!
December 20th, 2011 at 4:13 PM ^
I belive you meant to say "beat him on the field".
December 20th, 2011 at 4:05 PM ^
Who cares? Dunn made his choice (repeatedly) and that's that. Meyer is the OSU coach, Dunn is sticking with him and Dantonio is seriously pissed that his Fulmer Cup battle just got a bit more heated with the short arm of the law in control in Columbus.
December 20th, 2011 at 4:06 PM ^
since they won't be seeing too much of the field the first year.
December 20th, 2011 at 4:17 PM ^
I understand the issue of Dunn will continue to linger until NSD, but until he shows a strong interest in M, I'd rather just forget about him altogether.
Objectively, M would have been a perfect fit for him (upper tier academics, character staff, aspirations of a traditional M power running game), but the kid obviously loves OSU enough, despite penalties and a non-conforming offense, to stick with that joke of a university.
With fear that my M pride clouds my rationality, I say cut ties... see you on the field in three years when wormely, pip, bolden, strobel, mario, ross, and RJS are clogging the gaps.
December 20th, 2011 at 4:17 PM ^
No I'm not a creeper, but this is hilarious.
December 20th, 2011 at 4:20 PM ^
love the passion Mag... love it. Word choice, not so much...
December 20th, 2011 at 4:28 PM ^
Hope that is the last time he uses that word.
December 20th, 2011 at 4:24 PM ^
That's approaching Shane Morris levels, Tremendous
December 20th, 2011 at 4:28 PM ^
but I wouldn't call use of the word "faggot" "hilarious."
December 20th, 2011 at 4:34 PM ^
Not sure if that comment will go over well with AA's oddly large population of Birkenstock lesbians
December 20th, 2011 at 4:45 PM ^
Good thing Hoke apparently has some sort of Twitter & You 101 course for incoming freshmen
December 20th, 2011 at 4:47 PM ^
While the use of "faggots" was not the right word choice, I agree that this was funny. We also have to remember that these are still high schoolers we talk about, and therefore misuse of words like these are unfortunately more common. Hopefully he will learn better.
But I think everyone missed the best thing about this tweet. Hoke is already teaching him well with his use of "Ohio". Well done Mags, well done.
December 20th, 2011 at 5:37 PM ^
is he calling them cigarettes?
December 20th, 2011 at 4:33 PM ^
To me this is one of the classic moves of the recruiting analysts that are actually de facto recruiters for a certain school. Some circumstance suggests a reason for a player to de-commit and the analyst gets the kid on the record and says people are saying you're going to betray us....are you going to betray us? Then the kid says of course not. Then you have that statement of loyalty on the record and hope it makes the kid feel locked in. And I can't say we're not guilty of the same thing sometimes (e.g. Kalis most recently).

The best way of showing your talent is to defeat the best DL.
Beat Olio!

No disrespect or ill wishes to Dunn or his family, but he needs to stay at Ohio. I don't want a Buckeye here, and for all intents and purposes, that's what he's always been. He made his choice, and I wish him the best, except when he plays agianst Michigan, or plays in a game that could effect Michigan negatiely by him playing well. GBOD
December 20th, 2011 at 5:07 PM ^
What are our chances at landing Dee Hart?
December 20th, 2011 at 5:26 PM ^
Sad Buckeye = It's great to be a Michigan Wolverine!
December 20th, 2011 at 5:51 PM ^
Our class seems to be rounding out nicely, the fears of mass poaching by Meyer are thus far unfounded (and certainly today's news doesn't help him out), and despite the unexpected harshness of the sanctions (I say this because I didn't think that the NCAA would even do this much), I had a feeling that at least most kids already committed will remain so. After all, a fair number of them may not even play during the ban from postseason play, but they'll have the benefit of every other aspect of the program. I wish Dunn well, save in one particular matchup.
December 20th, 2011 at 6:18 PM ^
Anybody who loves OSU as much as this kid does is very deserving of spite.
He's clearly in the "see no evil, hear no evil" stage. Poor sap.
December 21st, 2011 at 1:30 AM ^
is involved?
December 20th, 2011 at 9:57 PM ^
The coaching staff can now set their sights on next year crop of rbs.
December 20th, 2011 at 9:59 PM ^
Ah, what the hell. Good for him. He's made a commitment (twice) and in the face of adveristy (albeit modest adversity) he sticks with his commitment. That's commendable in a 17- or 18-year old kid. I hope he tears it up at OSU, goes on to a successful NFL career, and loses to Michigan every time.
