2015 DE J Alabi to Ohio
Cass Tech 2015 DE commits to Ohio at FNL
I know he wasn't heavily pursued by Michigan, but just to update his recruitment. Best of luck to him except the last week of November

We need to return the favor eventually and take a guy ohio offered from Glenville, no?
I'll drink to that. Also, I think what will help soon is that we start winning games
For using the massively overused and now annoying point that we need to "start winning games".
But still very true.
if memory serves.
We'll we've got Willie Henry from Glenville. We've also gotten Taco, Jake Butt, Jaron Dukes and Keith Heitzman out of Columbus recently.
Also Frank Clark from Glenville.
Henry and Clark did not have osu offers. I don't think we have ever gotten a recruit from that school who had an offer from the bucks... maybe back in Bo's day but not since.
Pierre Woods was the last Glenville want for tOSU that Michigan signed.
for stealing a local recruit from MSU? I think it's for us to steal one from MSU too, preferably one-upping them by getting a higher ranked prospect.
Drake Harris
Funchess, Ojemudia, Harris and now Cole, more than a fair trade for McDowell. MSU apparently didn't get the memo that winning cures all recruiting woes.
Urban seems to be targeting Cass Tech. I really thought MSU was in the driver's seat for most of the '15 Cass kids. They may not get jayru, josh a, or mike weber. That's CROOTIN' for ya
So, he's a Bobcat?
I really like Brady Hoke and some of his gimmicks, but would it trouble the OP to substitute OSU/Buckeyes/whatever for "Ohio?"
Technically he committed to the University of Ohio State...whatever that is
I legitimately was. I didn't think he was OSU material.
I thought we were calling them pigfuckers.
nahhhh stick with 'chicken fucker'.....buckockkkkkk
"No, only my friends can call me Pig Fucker."
+1 if I could.
But I don't call them the other thing either.
To me, it's OSU and MSU. I like them even more because that could mean a different school in a different part of the country, but for MICHIGAN there's only one OSU and one MSU. Period.
So it puts the attention back on Michigan and makes those abbreviations special only because of Michigan. And why should I care about what anyone else thinks? It's about Michigan.
OSU, MSU...
And for the record, USC is Southern Cal and Carolina is North Carolina (even though I prefer North Carolina or UNC).
It's always bothered me that South Carolina claims two abbreviations and neither of them are theirs.
Michigan isn't UM, we're UofM. UM is Miami. We're not the Big Blue, that's Kentucky.
UT can be debated.
Wanna know what else is dumb? KU for University Kansas, MU for University of Missouri (especially when it's Miami University's), NU for University of Nebraska. What the F is wrong with the old Big XII?
I digress.
That's a blow for Sparty.
Go Blow Sparty
I prefer Sparties blowing me
Cool
+1 Underrated
Who's the last Cass Tech kid that actually met expectations at the college level?
Thomas Gordon.
Jourdan Lewis is going to be the next.
One should be very cautious when recruiting from there, they have had a huge number of kids that have been a bit overrated. But great for the school getting kids D1 scholarships.

Finally started to watch the Wire thanks to Amazon Prime making HBO shows available. I had heard good things about it. WOW. Great TV.
Season 4 is the best in the history of television.
Sorry that I just hyped it and ruined it for you, but the writing and acting --- shit everything in Season 4 is incredible.
You've made me want to start over and watch again (I've done all 5 seasons from beginning to end four times and watched season 4 by itself a couple times).
I'm supposed to be starting Breaking Bad, but you've planted a seed. The Wire is just, so good.
gon walk out one. But you out here wearing his name, acting a bitch!
Namond momma is cold blooded.
So many legendary quotes from that show. And whoever did the casting was a genius.
Bodymore, Murderland
Is going to be pretty damn good I'm betting. I hate seeing a Cass Tech kid go to the Ohio Pigfuckers. Urban is making it a point.

Bad for Sparty.
I saw him on Around The Horn
Thanks for posting. Did they offer him as a DE? He's a generic 3*, sometimes listed at SDE and sometimes DT. They either like him a lot, or frankly they're struggling to recruit that position. M clearly prefers Roseboro at SDE, and aren't taking a DT. But yeah, 92% crystal ball to Sparty
At this point we want Roseboro and Lucier South.
WR Lawerence Cager and TE Josh Moore. All currently 3 star guys although 247 Sports had Cager rated fairly highly.
and had not heard of the TE...but still a good recruiting weekend for the bucks
I misread the tweet. Josh Moore did commit however.
Correct. No commitment from Cager....yet. Sounds like OSU is now in the lead for him.
What's interesting about the Alabi commitment is that, while I'm sure they think he can play, is that I'm sure this is part of the concerted effort to get into Cass Tech. I think they were the first to offer 2017 Donovan Peoples-Jones....will be interesting to see how/if it pays off.
Lavert Hill
Yup, but based on what I've read/seen, I think that might too much of an uphill climb for OSU. Brother at UM, calls UM "home"....but if they do pull him in, now THAT would be a statement....and would be vomitrocious as a UM fan.
