We see the black, orange and white of Marlington High. But what colors will Dymonte Thomas sport as a collegian?

Bax weighs in on the chance for intrigue before the ink is dry ...

Great article, as usual. I hope this works out, I can't say I know much about Dymonte, but taking recruits from Hoke will always make me happy. I want that Fred Flintstone look-alike out of Ohio. Let him have Indiana and Illinois.

Wow, you got it all planned out. And with great logic too. I would not be all that surprised if you turn out to be absolutely correct. With this let me be one of the first to officially welcome Dymonte to the Buckeye Nation.

Throw in the 80k who are going to attend the spring game and Urban has quite a story to sell recruits who will be there

Great read Bax. I love the way you lay it all out. I just hope it turns out like that. I am a Tressell fan and always will be. I was a little hesitant to give the love to UM especially with the drubbing in the NC game we took at his hands. But, the longer he is at TOSU, the more I am happy he is. The truth is in the production and what we have seen in just a few short months is just short of amazing!! So I am officially on the Urban bandwagon and say GO TEAR THEM ALL A NEW ASS!!! As per usual, your writing is greta and I really enjoy when you post your articles. Keep up the good work and GO BUCKS!!!

Can we count Ricquan Southward as a flip from Miami just to rub it in their faces?

I will make a bet that Thomas does not flip. I was at the Touchdown banquet last saturday night and he is pretty much a lock for Michigan. He was tight with the three Michigan recruits there, Kalis, Stroebel and Wormley. Anything is possible but I would say the odds are too high against us. I would love to lose the bet but I dont think I will.

This flipping is a one year aberration (Thomas belongs to that one year because he verballed before Urban arrived) because from now on Urban will nail them first time around.

You got that right! The Game will become a grudge match along with everything else it brings!

I think he signs with us. After dave got him in that interview and he said "Maybe" i could go there. He just needs to be shown love, if only Fick would have offered him, he'd be a buckeye already

Really look forward to your articles, Bax. Always so interesting and never boring. You give us all hope. Just love your perspective and totally agree that Thomas will be wearing S&G next year. Even if he wasn't a top notch recruit, taking any guy from the Hoax is the sweetest kind of revenge. Taking Thomas will be absolutely phenomenal and will be fantastic to watch the northern implosion!!

it would be nice if he lied to hoax the entire time and then committed to OSU on signing day so TTUN has to scramble at the last second to fill his spot with the inevitable 3 star!!
