D'Antonio and Narduzzi were whining before Bielema, even though they were known to be negatively recruiting OSU.

Bottomline, the other B1G coaches are going to have to step it up or OSU and UM will have a stranglehold on this conference for years to come.

Agree. "pretty unethical" was the latest from Mark. Well, sorry Mark, the kid's from Ohio and he contacted Meyer. It's funny how Hoke doesn't have anything to say but these two asshats do (yeah UM has a top 10 class too).

The best response is to say "we're still going to kick their ass" whether they do or not isn't the point. You don't go crying to anyone who will listen. Hell BB is going to have Alvarez talk to Delany about it...lol. That conversation won't go anywhere.

I haven't been able to find a comprehensive article explaining the players we signed, their ability, and where they project next season. Anyone come across one?

Just saw that Hoke is in a coaching clinic in Columbus and was asked how he felt about Urban's recruiting methods..

Hoke said he agrees with how Urban's recruited. Soft Verbals are NOT off limits in his eyes either.

As long as no rules are broken, recruiting verbals is part of the game. And if you aren't doing it, you are probably signing the #40 class.

Bret Beilema has always been a punk ass bitch.

This.

Never did like the guy. Again, the guy crying is the same guy who ran up the scores on the basement teams of the B1G.. Put up 80+ on Indiana...

Does this dude really think that anybody gives a shit that his feelings are hurt?

Stefon Diggs visit to Maryland seems like a courtesy. I'm hearing he's leading heavily towards Urban Meyer and Ohio State. #Terps #buckeyes

Well, maybe we are now seeing one reason the SEC has been so good. They don't have these gentleman agreement bull going on. A recruit is fair game until he signs on the paper.

Little disappointed in Dantonio. I have great respect for him as a coach. He should know, with a new coach, that the previous stuff/agreements are out the door.

Beilema is just a sore loser. But when you sign ONLY 12 players, and u lose one..you've lost almost 10% of ur class! ha!!

Heard he filed a formal complaint with Big Ten.

I'd bet any money, Urban hasn't done anything illegal. He isn't stupid. Coming into OSU with all that has happened, he isn't going to take a stupid chance to do something illegal.

BB and MD are upset that Tressel isn't around anymore to be buddy buddy and recruit with kid gloves on. It was even rumored (believed) that Tress would steer recruits he couldnt fit to Dantonio.

Its a new era, and half assed recruiting isn't going to get it done anymore. Look at how mediocre the B1G was last year...all this QQing is why.

If you get me a quote from Nevada saying that Meyer dropped Neal at the last minute, I would tend to put more stock into it. Until then, I don't think anyone knows what is truly going on, if anything.
Well the bank basically said that they told Neal they wouldn't ever take Neal's commitment. Is that good enough? It will come out I'm sure once Neal and Diggs have signed their LOI's.
