Yeah, but Kalis and his real dad say he isn't. Sounds like someone wanted him to be a Buckeye.

His real dad probably is keeping quiet about the $$$ being paid to get Kalis to come to Michigan. Why else would choose a losing program over the premier program in the country?

I can think of 2 reasons: 1) You're not a competitor and don't care about winning 2) $$$

Not a lot of big names on either offer list, but both were camp offers, I believe. Let's hope the staff has an eye for talent and can then develop it. They've had luck with LB'ers doing this, but not so much with OL. I guess we'll see.

I heard Roberts was one of the most impressive players at the entire camp. I'm glad we got him now because I see this kid just blowing up in the rankings as he gains more exposure.

I also love the fact that he's supposed to be a natural ILB and that he plays in a pretty tough HS conference.

6'2 230 lb. right now. I can't wait to see him after a year in a college weight room.

Elflein hasn't officially committed yet. But he has quite the mean streak apparently and that is one of the reasons he picked up the offer. I am torn on Roberts, I would have liked Mason Monheim instead but I will take any kid that can earn an offer and really wants to be a buckeye. Isn't Bobby Carpenter's dad Robert's coach at Lancaster?

Nick Davidson finally got his offer today. Looks good for OSU, as Fickell is heavily involved in his recruitment.

What are the questions? He acknowledged receiving an offer in an article. In fact, he said he may have committed to OSU had they offered sooner. Named a top four of OSU, Stanford, Clemson, and Oregon.

Just heard on TV that the NCAA is not going to add any more sanctions to OSU. Any Buckeyes insider want to confirm or deny this? This will be HUGE for Fickell.
