19 weeks 2 days ago Redfield never had an offer

Redfield never had an offer from OSU. They were recruiting him but they never fully offered. Right now they're banking on Vonn Bell and it's starting to look good from Bell to OSU. Bill Green talked to Bell's coach today and he said if he had to sign today it would be OSU no contest. Still a long way to go though with an in-home visit from Saban and 3 official visits to OSU-Bama-Tennessee.

1 year 3 weeks ago Here's the full quote from Green

“Even though I have named Clemson my top school I would still say I’m pretty open,” said Green. “I’m probably going to narrow my list down early or late summer after I make some more visits. “Ohio State, Michigan, Virginia Tech, and Clemson are going to be tough to say no to and things could always change, especially as I take more visits.”

Gambrell was kicked off the team for beating up his pregnant gf and Clark was kicked for his second or third dui. It's not like they were just released because Meyer didn't like them. I would say those are two solid reasons.

1 year 30 weeks ago On the "Boarding House"

On the "Boarding House" feature on Bucknuts on either Thursday or Friday it was said that a "well-informed" former player has said the decision has already been made that it's going to be Urban Meyer. 

Now whether the decision has been made to go after him first or both sides have arleady been talking...well that wasn't mentioned. There's also this. Herbstreit, about a week was on the radio and stated that if the job is offered to Meyer he will take it....but I (and I'm sure all of you) have a pretty good recollection of Les Miles to Michigan being a done deal. 

It's been stated a couple times before and I agree with it, OSU really needs to get away from anyone connected with Tressel. I really think the OSU admin has to cleanse themselves of anything to do with Tressel just for the sake of showing the NCAA what has been done. Here's where you can make jokes and jokes and jokes about how well OSU has handled everything. Dantonio would in more ways than one be a step back for the program as a new head coach. Right now, it's Meyer or bust for most of the OSU fanbase. 

I really think it's going to come down to how severe the sanctions happen to be if Meyer comes or not. If they're fairly light, everything I've seen shows me Meyer to OSU being a very high likelihood of happening. This is my opinion, I don't claim to be any sort of an insider whatsoever. From the info I've read that comes from known insiders on Bucknuts and other places, it's a very good chance of Meyer to OSU. 

I don't know whether I really want Meyer as a head coach. Obviously the recruiting and his ability to win wherever he has been is an enormous plus but are we going to be needing to do a coaching search around 2016 or so? Of course if he can throw in a couple of national titles in that time frame and then retire again...well I would be ok with that. 

1 year 33 weeks ago Urban hung out with Gene

Urban hung out with Gene Smith and Gee while doing the Akron game earlier in the season. Everything I've heard, which is just rumor has Urban nowhere near Columbus next season.

1 year 40 weeks ago The big problem with Texas is

The big problem with Texas is the Longhorn Network and ESPN. One of the proponents which is causing A&M to move to the SEC was the Longhorn Network because it's going to be playing at least two games per season on that channel. Now, we obviously have the BTN and since Delany and ESPN aren't the best of friends, there could be some things that might be hard to get around with these stubborn entities.

1 year 40 weeks ago It simply wouldn't matter if

It simply wouldn't matter if there actually were UM athletes selling autographs because they would still have to have someone talk or have proof with checks. Denard has a ton of stuff on ebay as does nearly every top college football player around the country. Andrew Luck, Lamichael James, Trent Richardson, you can go on and on. Unless there is someone willing to talk, it's a non-story.

1 year 40 weeks ago Everything that I've seen

Everything that I've seen online has stated that the investigation was wrapped up when OSU received the news that they weren't getting hit with LOIC or failure to monitor.

OSU is flat out denying they even received a letter from the NCAA. If you have a 24/7 account, you can read Bucknuts' story on OSU's denial of said letter from the NCAA.

Yea, that was really good.

1 year 44 weeks ago Bucknuts also has a story

Bucknuts also has a story about Pat Elflein comitting tomorrow. He received an offer within the past week and is apparently visiting OSU tomorrow to commit in person. He's a conscensus 3* player from Scout, Rivals, 24/7. His more notable offers are Notre Dame, MSU, Tennesee, Pitt. and Illinois.

1 year 45 weeks ago Playing in the NFL for 14

Playing in the NFL for 14 years with 3 super bowl rings probably draws some interest. He played as a DE in college but switched to LB for the Pats. With it being this close to the season, this has to be the best name that they could get and if Fickell is gone next year having a year coaching OSU's linebackers probably doesn't look too bad on a resume if you're trying to get into coaching.

According to Bucknuts, it will be announced on Monday that he is the new coach.

I know tressel would tell kids to use all of their trips to make sure if they wanted to be buckeye if thy ever felt on the fence. recruits would back up his notion as well especially if they were already committed to osu. typically in interviews they would state that tressel told hem to do this. not sure if hoke has the same mentality or not but just something I thought you might like to know. also, paid trips to Florida or USC can't sound too bad to a 17-18 year old kid.

1 year 47 weeks ago posted from droid

sorry this doesn't revolve around Kalis but word is from the osu training camps is that Dunn is now solid with osu. he was apparently in Columbus on Thursday with his family and visiting with coaches and talking to at least one families recruit in derrick green. I've also seen all of the bill green tweets about Dunn decommitting this week sometime so its hard to know what to think. anyway, that was just the info from bucknuts.

About 3-4 months ago bucknuts moved from independent to 24/7 and while some of the members complained because of change the vast majority including myself love it. if you get a subscription to one of the sites, that means you have access to all the other sites premium articles. the only tho.g you can't see on other sites are the forums that are marked "VIP". Half the time they aren't marked that anyway because you have to manually mark it that. pretty great setup overall and even without having a Michigan site up yet, there's quite a few Michigan posters over there. I would say a guy by the name of "cwoodson" is typically the most informed of the group. he seems like a pretty good guy.

1 year 48 weeks ago posted from droid

I'm a member over on bucknuts and I was definitely turned away from some of the people on there. wishing injury tons kid by will never know or ever meet just for the fact that he spurned their team? pretty pathetic. a lot of the fans just seem to be in a cloudy haze and just want to place blame on anyone but themselves. they just seem completely lost in their own lives that they have to be internet tough guys all of a sudden. I find myself posting less and less on the front row because I just want to bash my head in because of the content of the threads.

storm Klein and john Simon are now suing SI. Columbus radio station 97.1 said he NCAA have cleared 5 of the 9 new players that were introduced in the SI article. Klein and Simon should be 2 of the 5. Klein doesn't have any tags and still has his awards and Simon has 3 tags wig his dad claiming he had them in high school and that his dad has all his awards at his home.
