Malik Hooker to Ohio
Didn't see this mentioned, and I have seen the name come up in passing here during recruiting roundups, but it looks like Malik Hooker out of PA committed to Ohio today (http://ohiostate.247sports.com/Article/Malik-Hooker-Commits-To-Ohio-State-Buckeyes-141212), so our options at DB in 2014 get more and more limited.
11W has so tainted the concept that you can't even say it when it's true. But I think in this case, it actually is true for Michigan. He was not one of our priorities.
Thats curious since Erick Smith is a "lock"
/11w'd
...someone just say "hookers?"
that Marshon Lattimore is also a DB, whose 247 Crystal Ball is currently 100% OSU with a July 28 unofficial to UofM? And there are several threads about another "huge" (a/k/a large or surprising?) commitment about to drop on this side of the border?
So what..there are a ton of Hookers in Columbus...what makes this one so special ?
Like was said earlier, I'll take the malik we're going after over whoever this guy is. And the OP stating that the DB pool is getting smaller and smaller....say what? I think we're doing just fine at that position and all the other positions for that matter.
To the OP,
Your attitude is INSANE. Mere moments after landing two absolute top notch recruits for 2015, you're complaining that our DB options in 2014 are getting "more and more limited" because some dude who we were hardly even recuiriting went to OSU?
I hope I don't sound overdramatic, but you are actually everything wrong with sports fans. The kid committed, he'll have a nice career, we'll get a DB. Chill the eff out.
that fact that if a DB it had been mentioned we were recruiting committed elsewhere, then our list of potential DBs is smaller. Obviously he wasn't a big recruit of ours, or we would have heard about him more; I was just stating a fact, not trying to be a downer.

Some of us live overseas and have limited access to college football. I love reading up on Ohio. Feels like I'm back home, except now I do my shit talking through an elaborate series of tubes
No.
I like the recon.
I enjoy being able to tell any ohio fans more about their recruits than they can tell me. It usually shuts them up during an argument because I'm far more informed than they are.
So it's not that strange to suddenly have a board post about him.
Strange is that he cut his list to a top six (including Michigan) over the weekend and now commits to OSU.
Happy trails.
That just means a spot is loss for someone they did need. Bonus for us.
Go blue. Remember I hate Ohio but its best you know your competition and do your homework.
You capitalize ohio, but leave Blue uncapitalized.
Recage your gyros.
gyros...now I'm hungry. Thanks.
Stop being a hot dog.
Oops...
Hooker is a good get for OSU.
I think it's crazy that he's a 4 star but only the 32nd ranked ATH and 8th ranked prospect in PA per 247. There must be some damn good athletes and players in Pennsylvania this year because Hooker is pretty good.
I don't remember him popping up much on recruiting news, but good luck to him except against UM. Will say, Meyer isn't doing himself any favors with some of these names, though.
