You're right--had he verballed anywhere?

Pretty sure he verballed to Ohio U. He visited there on the 27th I think.

He would be a Buckeye were it not for his grades being substandard.

Hmmm...so the chick claimed rape when she had been hanging out w/ Lewis after the alleged rape? Sounds shady, but still glad he won't be at OSU. I wonder if Meyer knew of his troubles, and basically told Lewis he wouldn't have a scholly at OSU?

Hard to say much at this point. He posted via twitter about #tellingthetruth about what happened though. The $250,000 bond says a lot to me though.

Soooo glad he didn't make it for whatever reason, we don't need any spot light of negativity lol.

Apparently Dantonio has assigned a fifth coach to recruit Ohio, and is not happy about Meyer talking to his commits.

Didn't realize this, but all signed LOI's by OSU recruits will be for 4 yr scholarships, not the standard one year schollies.

I believe this is the first year for that option

He might want to get used to it. He will likely be taking guys urban passes on for a while

A few people that are insiders are calling Diggs a buckeye lock. I am skeptical
Also some people are saying the bucks made a big push for Caleb at the last minute and he will be a Buckeye

How does the scholarship situation look? I know they're pushing 82, but haven't seen a good breakdown of where they currently stand.

I dont think anyone knows but the coaches. There are so many players that are up in the air such as Berry and Williams

Currently have 23 commits for this year, with room for 3-6 more depending on what you believe others have said, but we won't go over by deception or by rule.

This just tells you who we've signed (well, verballed as of today) but doesn't detail some of the other issues that allow for wiggle room.

If OSU got Diggs I would be absolutely ecstatic. I too am skeptical despite various chatter about it.

Mark Pantoni @markpantoni

Got us a bigtime LB in!

I think we just got Jammal Marcus. Luke Roberts was already announced and Josh Perry is an early enrollee.. hmm.

I'd be stoked to get Marcus. Many say he is VERY underrated as a 3*.
