Maybe it's just me, but I only want players who WANT to be Buckeyes. I don't want trash leftover from Oregon, a school that's never won a BCS National Championship.

So you don't want recruiting at all then, is that what you're saying? If they WANT to come to OSU, then they don't need to be pitched to by Ubran, Croombs, Fickell, or Vrabel right? What about the guy we flipped from UM last year, you want him off the team? How about the guys who are already committed at these High School All-Star games and try to convince some of the guys there to come to OSU? I actually agree with you a lot on some of the stuff you say, but this isn't one of them.

If Urban or whoever pitches to them and they don't decide the next day that they want to be champions, then no I don't want them. We already saw what happened when you recruit Pryor and the shit hits the fan with zero championships and bowl sanctions. It's Ohio State; the expectation is championships, academic excellence and integrity. Anything else is for the SEC so let them go there.

Per Bill Greene on 97.1 The Fan from down at the All American Game in Orlando he said he talked to Vonn Bell coach directly and according to Bell's coach if he had to sign a letter of intent today, it would be with Ohio State.

Encouraging, but unfortunately that's a whole month away :(

Bill Greene as follows

1. No disappointments from OSU players. Marcus Baugh impressed the most. Reminds him of Rickey Dudley special kid Wow!

2. Joey Bosa very solid

3. Jalin Marshall, auditioning as WR and was very good and will probably be starting tonight.

4. Trey Johnson will be a Buckeye done deal. Ross Homan type player. Coach for the All Star game loves Johnson.

5. Vonn would sign with tOSU if he was to pick today.

6. Mike Mitchell Buckeye

7. James Quick not as optimistic picking OSU. Rumors he silently committed to Strong. Seems to be looking for an excuse to leave Louisville, but simply not sure where he will go.

8. USC class falling apart,

9. Cameron Hunt Lineman probably going to visit tOSU the last weekend. Not adverse to leaving state of California. He is taking recruiting back to the beginning since Tedford fired.

10. Von Bell, Quick, and Hunt, could put tOSU #1 in the country.

#8 intrigues me. Falling apart as in decommittments or non performing well.

Decommits. Have already had several and when asked about SC's bowl game, the general consensus among the remaining commits was embarrassment. There are a couple more that have scheduled visits elsewhere in the coming weeks. They also have some other talented players they are likely to get, I think a 5 star safety will be committing today, but overall their class will be taking a hit compared to where it was a couple months ago.

Marshall made a nice catch at WR. He's gonna be a good one.

People are saying quick will be a buckeye . I am not convinced though I think he stays in state.

Bell is suppose to bring his whole family with him on his visit to OSU . This has to be good for the Bucks

Thought the same thing. Should have used QUICKly to not be so obvious. Still pretty funny though.

I hope they arent talking about Louisville.
