Bucknuts. Supposed to be final by the end of the week.

Side note: one of urban's best 2012 recruiting decisions may have been to pull the offer from Neal. What a fiasco that has become. Reminds me of the Pryor decision.

He had a presser set up at a local grade school for 11:00 am this morning with over 600 students in attendance, and he pulled a no-show..no phone call, no nothing.

That is a douche move. Does he have such an ego that he needs to use the local grade school to announce in front of a crowd?

Giovani has been an often rumored person. I don't know why we would want him with the depth we have though. Especially after he sits out a year and Hyde,Smith,Dunn have a extra year to prove themselves and pass him. Who on Bucknuts has revealed this info, I still don't believe it?

Jordan Whiting is probably going to transfer to Louisville. Good move for him because he was/is going to be buried so far on the depth chart he would be lucky to see time on special teams.

I don't think this is official, it may happen but the latern jumped the gun on this one.

From every thing I have read Bradley Roby has been a beast during these workouts. The coaches have been raving about him.

He's going to be a top corner in the country this year.

I have a feeling this will be Roby's last season in Columbus. I really think he emerges as a lock down corner and ends up projected as a Top 20 guy. He actually reminds me a lot of Morris Claiborne.

Personally, I think he'll be persuaded by OSU's national championship chances in 2013 and stay despite the possible high draft status (ala Mike Doss).

I sure hope so because he'd be invaluable to a run in 2013.

@DustinFox37 Urban Meyer flew 20 hrs to meet us in the Bahamas, boarded @BuckeyeCruise and raised 100k for cancer research in 15 minutes!

Hopefully Whiting gets a shot to play @ Louisville. He could just never get over the hump at OSU.

i have read they are looking at 20 kids for the 2013 class. So there will be a lot more attrition. I think a couple guys could leave early for the draft as well.

I'm hearing 20 too.

I'm a little skeptical that the numbers aren't already there, but apparently they seem to be confident that we will be able to get there.
