'14 SC DT Poona Ford

Per that same article OSU writer says he is not a take atm for the OSU staff

Kurelic’s Comment: I give the edge to South Carolina with Tennessee and Ohio State the top two challengers at this point. The Ohio State staff is not ready to push for a commitment from Ford, but that could happen down the road, especially if Ford has a big camp performance. I will be looking forward to seeing Ford at the Buckeyes’ camp in June.

I don't think he knows what he's talking about

From PFort. Guys we have the outright lead for.

WR: Lauderdale
OL: Brown
DE: Hendrix
DT: Ford
LB: Bates, Miclisse, Mouhon, Elliot Berry
CB: Gaulden, Green, Evan Berry
S: McDowell
Ath: Truitt
 
I don't understand this fascination with Ohio State. Sure, CUM had success at UF, but he left a pretty awful roster--by UF standards--for Muschamp after he "retired." Plus, he is dirtbag that used his family as the excuse to retire from UF (i.e., he said he wanted to spend more time with his family) and then he takes the OSU job less than a year later (I guess family wasn't that imporant after all). More importantly, have these kids been to Ohio in late fall or winter or even watched Ohio State play on the national stage? Ohio is a miserable place and Ohio State gets decimated in every big game they play against the SEC, etc. If you're from the Southeast and you're a great football player, stay in the region to play football and beat the snot out of OSU when you play them. Let Ohio State recruit Ohio, Iowa, Michigan, and Pennsylvania.

Vonn Bell disagrees with you. I'm no Buckeye homer but if they weren't under sanctions they would have been in the title game against Bama (probably wouldn't have won but that matters little). You have a young talented QB together with a coach that has won not just one by many NC's and play in a winnable conference. No need to continue but you see the idea.
 
OH is the 7th most populated state... and OSU does not have another major competitor to recruit aganist.
 
I'll say that UM is annoying and he didn't exactly leave the Gators stacked but the D wasn't hurting---Muschamp just hasn't put the skill position players in place with Driskel.

Were you saying that UM has won not just one but many NCs...? He's won 2 at UF. That's impressive but it doesn't count as "many" just yet quite. Many feels more like 4 or 5 to me. Sorry to nit pick.

Ohio State would have lost even worse than Notre Dame. Ohio State was probably the worst undefeated team that I have ever seen. I believe from the SEC alone they would have been handily beaten by: Alabama, Texas A&M, Florida, South Carolina, Georgia, and LSU. I also think if UT and OSU had played they would have set an all time record for combined points scored in a game. OSU's D was terrible

I remember flying over Ohio at night and being totally amazed at the endless lights below, thinking damn there's a lot of people in Ohio. On the ground though, it's still a rusting pit.

Wow, I had no idea they had such an easy schedule. No wonder CUM went there.

Would not leave out Mississippi State...Mullen would own meyer :)

Glad we did not...sunseri would still be here...great now I'm gonna have nightmares again...


Wow, With this thought, suddenly our losing season may have been a blessing in disguise. :)

Had OSU not been on probation, they would have been in the championship game against ND. Bama wouldn't leap 2 undefeated teams. Just sayin'

Which is just more proof how desperately a playoff is needed. Two average midwest teams playing for a national title would have been a joke. I'm no Bama fan by any means but they would have destroyed OSU just like they did ND.

IMO, OSU would've had no claim whatsoever to being in a NC game with that schedule. I knew it was weak, but that's pathetic.
