Seems like Okudah is a silent verbal and is just waiting for his perfect time.Benny The Jet;1827221 wrote:Next up...Okudah.
Sounds like OSU could be in good position for Werner, Tufele and possibly even Marvin Wilson and Trey Smith. If they end with those 5 guys...what a class!
Very interested to see if they can somehow pull Cam Akers from the South, but it seems unlikely right now. Also interested to see what happens with Jaylen Harris. Best WR in Ohio, has an offer, but won't pull the trigger.

Well, look there. A fluke TD.
No one deserved that to happen to them more than PSU.

Really shocked there isn't a 9PM game.
But 7 is ok.

College football doesn't want to compete for viewers with NFL

That's great, but they did this last year too on New Years Eve on a Thursday night. Having any games at night on New Years Eve is a horrendous idea, and the ratings proved that last year. Why it even got green-lighted is beyond me.
Also, the 2 playoff Bowl games would SMOKE the NFL games in ratings. Not even close.

My gf is an OSU diehard. She's cool with watching it at my place with some OSU friends and then heading over to the NYE party. Thankfully they started the game early enough where that could happen.vball10set;1827697 wrote:which is exactly why I told my wife we're not doing anything that night...she was cool with it as she's a Buckeye fan as well (thank God!)

Because I know I'm not the only one obsessed with what jerseys OSU will be wearing...
According to UniWatch, they will be wearing the white jerseys from the 2015 Sugar Bowl.

I love the large striping on the shoulders. Reminds me of the early 2000 jerseys before the change in 2006.

I love the red with the black number on the shoulder, from the Championship game, also. Jersey they wore against Michigan this year.

Meaningless factoid of the day via Twitter. The last time Zeke lost a road game was as a freshman in high school.

5* Offensive Lineman Trey Smith from Tennessee makes his college decision tomorrow at 4PM.
He was once considered a lock to Tennessee, but OSU and Bama have made up some ground. Last week, it was rumored that OSU would be the pick, but it now looks like things may have swung back into Tennessee's favor. Anyway, could be a great addition to the OSU class tomorrow, but seems unlikely right now.

I see Martel has been talking with him a lot. I wonder if the lean back to Tennessee is why. I also see that Lindsey is hammering him as well. Would be a huge pick up considering Prince is supposedly the best we have out of all the other linemen on scholarship.
