How did Ohio pull this off?

[Muck]

Explain to me how USC loses scholi's and post season play for something that occurred 4 or 5 years ago while OSU hires a new head coach and he is allowed to have his staff operate for the university while the old staff remains for the post season, after multiple major violations?

Apples & Oranges.

Ohio State is also losing scholi's, had multiple players suspended and vacated an entire season as direct penalties leveled by the NCAA (that of course doesn't include the indirect penalties that resulted in this season's results or losing a number of players who likely would have ended up in Columbus).

from what I hear Se'von Pittman and a PSU DT have officially flipped, I wonder how many more Meyer can get before the dead period starts, this is getting interesting...

Schutt switching from Penn State is official now as well.

Interesting in that the two situations are so different. Se'Von is a huge Buckeye fan who made his verbal to Sparty in the wake of everything going on last spring/summer but has been trending back towards Ohio State for awhile (even before Meyer).

Schutt was definite to Penn State until everything started falling apart in Happy Valley due to their scandal.

Dodson is a lot like Se'Von...grew up a Buckeye fan but started looking elsewhere when the future looked uncertain, although prior to the hiring of Meyer there wasn't the same talk about rapprochement with Ohio State as there was with Pittman.

Word is that Dodson, the OT from Cleveland, is leaning Bucks after a soft verbal to Wisky in November. He made an official visit on Friday.

It's gonna be interesting because we are still focusing on Diamond from Chicago, Brionte(who is soft verbal OSU right now), Spence out of PA, and guys like Diggs on the east coast(there are a few more but It's going to be first come first served since we only have a handful of spots left)

After losing a lot of guys in the summer we might make this into a undisputed top-10 class (Scout has us at #10 and Rivals has us at #13).

Most interesting is going to be the battle for Dunn between OSU and UM

He loves him some him and loves the attention.

This picture should give us a good idea of what he's feeling though

If he decides to defect than it's ok as long as we get Diamond,Dodson and Spence. Tailback is on the backburner for me

Welcome to the family Brionte!

The local sports talk guy in Omaha today was talking about how in the end this is probably going to work for the better for Ohio State. Yes, they lost the sweater vest but gained Urban Meyer. They had a bad season this year but it looks like recruiting is going to turn out for the better and they could easily be the favorite in the Leaders next year if they don't get whacked by the NCAA too bad.
