The odds are against it, but my post was more about the path I see him taking IF he qualifies, which is his biggest hurdle right now.

Ejuan Price has been looking at Pitt recently. We could very well lose him on signing day. If we get Grant and Walker I won't mind. I think he is the real deal though.

Internet ramblings that Walker and Jones will announce together this evening. If that happens to be true, it's definitely a good sign for the Bucks. We'll see.

the day looms. hope the shitty weather isn't a precursor for a disappointing day tomorrow. OSU has had awful signing days in recent history.

Jones and Walker announce tonight at 7:30pm so you dont' have to wait until tomorrow for that one. Buckeyeplanet mods say they are almost 100% walker is a buckeye. I think everyone expects grant to be a buckeye too. Other than those two I don't expect anyone else except for maybe Jones then he will got to Juco or prep school. Should be a fairly predicable day and quiet one. Only drama should be Ejuan Price.

As long as we get Grant I'll be happy. With Bell being suspended, Rolle/Homan graduating, and none of the other guys really stepping up Grant could see some PT early.

Saw on a ND board that Walker will commit to USC. He has called it his dream school and some of the other SC recruits have said he will join them. He has also said his parents will move west with him.

Anything about Jones? I thought both were announcing at 730?

I don't recall anything about Jones. Who else is he considering? I haven't really followed too much of OSU's recruiting other than the guys that were considering ND as well.

That's why I said we must've gotten some bad info, because to my knowledge(scouring every site I can think of) there is no report of either of them committing.

Glenville kids announce late but not always on signing day.

They were set to announce tonight but it is postponed to tomorrow at 10am due to the weather.

OSU will end up with anywhere from 1 to 4 new commitments tomorrow. I don't see it happening with Story. I do see it happening with Jones.
Walker, Grant, and Jennings are no certainty either way.

You have that wrong, it's always been set for tomorrow. Some people thought they might move it tonight due to the weather but the weather sucks tonight too so they didn't.

He could play 2 years. A possibility....Miller doesn't redshirt and leaves a year early. Jones redshirts.

How we get below 85 remains to be seen. Hopefully there is a plan in place now.

I agree about next year. Talk about bad timing. Monster class in state and we will only have 15-20 spots. This will allow other Big Ten schools to raid the state and get more left overs than usual.

This is a very old list, he's down to Toledo and OSU. Assuming he got the full offer or probably even a grey shirt offer from OSU he's going there.

Not sure what is going on with Walker and Jones. They didn't announce last night and I am not sure if their school is open today. A lot of drama going around regarding Walker though.

If they get Grant I will call it a win.
