No, the 25 as well, which is where the early enrollees come into play

They could take 24 and be at 82. So right now they are fine. If jacobs leaves or zeke they are at 81 or 80. They will take bell or clarke or both if they want in. 2 more will leave by fall camp.

Recent tweet about Ezekiel Elliot
Per Gabe DeArmond @ Rivals: "Talk with people close to the coaching staff are confident he will flip from Ohio State tomorrow."

Saw this also on SEC Rant
[INDENT]quote:
[HR][/HR]Update on Vonn Bell

Per Corey Vereen's high school coach (Petree) Von Bell will be signing with Tennessee.

Said he and Corey became close on Vonn's visit and the two text daily.

Petree is no longer at west orange HS....ran into him this morning at a citrus sports event.[HR][/HR][/INDENT]

Take that with a grain of salt, that's from the Admin on a UT Fan Site on Facebook. But for the most part he's been credible and had good sources
Just read these things and thought I would pass it along if you havent read this stuff yet. Im sure a million tweets will be posted saying other things also.

Haven't been following recruiting that closely this year....Why did EZE start to waiver???

And, isn't Taivon Jacobs the guy Meyer wanted because he loved his straight away speed???

I'm sure both his parents going there, being from Missouri, and his dad playing there probably have a role to do with it (especially since it seems like they have a close family). It would have been extremely impressive is OSU was able to pull him away.

Speculation that EZE was looking elsewhere came when Dontre Wilson started to lean towards OSU. With his commitment last night everyone jumped on the EZE to Mizzou bandwagon.

Also more James Clark to OSU chatter..

Mike Farrell ‏@rivalsmike Think #Buckeyes @iggybrowns: @rivalsmike Any news on James Clark?

Ive read on different sites where he wasnt happy with OSU getting the Oregon recruit. Also, I guess he doesnt want the competition and Mizzou has a family connection.

Kruelic also saying his florida sources say clark will sign with osu. Maybe this makes more sense with Jacobs now. Some were saying the staff was encouraging him to stay close to home with his son.

Not sure why that happened with EE. I'd would like to hear what changed that made him change his mind or at least waiver heavily, whatever it turns out to be.

And Jacobs has great straight line speed but so does Wilson and now it sounds like James Clark is going to sign with OSU as well. Would like to have Jacobs but might not be a necessity at this point and his situation has drastically changed so can't really blame him if he flips.

Maybe my selfish wish will come true. Taivon stays in Maryland; James Clark, Vonn Bell, and EZE are all Buckeyes tomorrow.

I'm gonna go with this...

Jacobs stays home and goes to Maryland.
Trey Johnson AND Elliott stick with OSU.
James Clark picks OSU.
Just don't know with Bell, but I'm afraid it's Tennessee.

Tennessee coach tweeted out a pic of himself on the phone and 2 guys in the background hugging. Caption was something like "great night" or some shit.

A lot of people are saying the call was from Bell, but probably just as many are saying it was another one of the recruits UT is in on. Bell announces at 10am tomorrow, I think, so we'll know for sure then.

Edit: Reading that Josh Dobbs, QB who was committed to ASU, flipped to Tennessee. He was the phone call, or at least that's the word going around. Makes me feel a little better about Bell.

Awesome pickup especially if Jacobs flips, Clark has great speed averaging over 20 yards a catch.
