Interesting. Last I read, OSU was pretty much out of the picture for him.

Thats what it looked like for a while but now I guess things have changed. He would be a HUGE get if Meyer could somehow get him here.

Sounds like as of now, Diggs is not signing til Feb. 10th because he is taking visits to OSU and Maryland.

I feel the same way actually. I don't see why they would have so much interest in another LB since they already four this year.

24/7 also shows he schedules an official to USC on the same day. I would personally be shocked if he even visits here.

Diggs told ESPN he would "likely" visit OSU next week. He's made numerous comments in the past about weather being a factor, but I don't think you can ever count Urban out.

Wonder if Dwayne Stafford and Pharoah Brown get calls from the new staff now that Chip Kelly is off to the NFL.

This has been a good read lol

How do these kids not realize that Meyer is signing guys he doesn't have room for?
I can't imagine myself ever rooting as hard for abject and unmitigated personal failure as I will be for Meyer, Schutt, O'Connor, Spence, and Williams.
Looks like it's time to make the change from using O$U to using Ohio Snake University.
i guess that opens up a scholarship spots for a couple of guys who aren't so callow to be seduced by Meyer's snake oil.

Soon to be 4-2.



3 + 2 = 6?

And in the last five it's
2011 PSU
2010 OSU
2009 OSU
2008 PSU
2007 OSU

So actually PSU is 2-3 against OSU

I've really really enjoyed the psu boards the last few weeks. They were crying about osu flipping their recruits. Then they turned around and did it, though they flipped theirs from temple and navy lol

Do my eyes deceive me or do I not see a certain signature that you should be sporting?

Also, PSU fans are just butthurt that Ohio State and Notre Dame and shredded their recruiting classes.

I never saw anything about a time frame for sig and avatar..and I haven't been able to get to a computer to change my avatar.

I'll put the sig and avatar back up if there is proof of how long I needed to have it up for. I didn't think it was for that long lol

I hear what you're saying, but at the same time... did you see our LB play this past season? And it's not going to be THAT much better this upcoming season, either. I'm fine with it.

Meyer has done a really good job filling the 2 positions of need. OL and LB. Would love to pull in Dodson/Diamond and Marcus.

We get dodson. I think the Diamond ship has sailed. Although he is one of the recruiting diva types so you never know what is really going on with those kids.

I want Dodson more than Diamond anyway if it can help land Gibson for next year.

I agree the LB play sucked last year so I am happy to see them hopefully upgrading that position, I'm just worried that the class will fill up with too many LBs and we may not have room for a Diggs or Neal since they are not signing until a little later. I would venture to say Meyer has thought about this already but I think they need to make sure if they have a shot at all at getting someone as dynamic as they are they need to make sure they have room.

I'm sure Meyer knows what he is doing. Also, technically, OSU could bring in 31 kids with this class. Of course they won't sign that many unless Meyer knows of alot more kids that will be leaving.
