You can also look at past recruiting classes by switching the season on that link. Smith was a 4* according to Scout.

Conflicting reports is what I am hearing.

It comes down to Tressel telling Brown what he didn't want to hear.

Latawn Anderson's name keeps popping up.

Does OSU take the risk with Anderson's problems?

I'd gladly take anderson at this point. his risk/reward is better than offering someone who we all know now doesn't deserve to be a buckeye just to fill the scholarship. I say this expecting to get niether hendo or james

I think were getting Henderson imo, I feel good about it but that is just my opinion not based on anything.

I'll take Anderson if I know Tressel will take him under close supervision and mentor the young guy.

Did some checking and it looks like Brown to L'ville which is fine. Tressel told him no QB time which is the truth.

i cannot image what is going through this kids mind right now.

Figured as much, no surprise. I've said since a few months ago that him going anywhere other than OSU or USC (and ND up until they seemed to drop off his radar a bit) would be unlikely. I'm still holding out hope that he goes to his home school, but it's not a big hope.

Morgan Moses did not go on his visit to LSU this past weekend. Hopefully that is a good sign that he will be a Buckeye

I have heard that he does not qualigy academically......

If true, and he want to go to Ohio State...he should go the prep school route to get his grades in order, ala Carlos Hyde. If not....WVU or somewhere else.

i heard he didn't get an offer UNTIL his academics qualified, which means he's eligible now, but wasn't before. seems to me you take him if you can.

UPDATE on Anderson:

He has qualified and does have an offer from OSU.

He will not be signing Wednesday as of right now, he needs more time.

I'm not sure if you posted it on this thread already but on scout it said that Moses would probably not be signing on Wednesday but would likely end up with OSU in a few weeks.

For Moses: They are working to get one of his classes cleared so he can qualify. Reports are if this last credit is accepted he will be enrolled at OSU for the spring quarter and spring practice. IF not, then he will return to Fork Union and it will be between OSU and Virginia (his original choice) for his services once he qualifies for the fall.

Moses should be able to qualify for OSU soon but it won't be by Wednesday obviously.

Louis is an unknown. He has been committed to OSU verbally during all his interviews but there is always a chance that OSU gets screwed on Wednesday.

If he goes to MN, i think Hendo does too.

I will also call shenanigans because louis will have played OSU like a fiddle. this would be a time when I'd be okay with a 2 live crew-type bounty on a player.

do like florida and pull his scholly. osu can NOT sit there and look like a slack jawed retard on signing day with an open scholly and no interested players.
