    If that is true what elite kid would want to commit with the # of OL they have taken the past few years? To me it seems the #s would scare an elite player away......curious to get your thoughts.

    Elite kids are rarely scared of competition and are willing to come in a practice with players who are equal talent because they will improve.

    Then he should come to OSU so he can go up against the best defensive ends in the game

    There's a difference between going against good competition on the other side of the ball and having that good competition on the same side of the ball causing the person to constantly being forced to improve his game because he is always battling for a spot or to keep his spot.

    Sorry, not buying it. This is the point when you start being a victim of your own success. Your not going to add any more studs on your OL, guys are not going to want to compete for PT.

    We already have Lisle the best Ohio OL, over the next 11 months we will sprinkle on a few stud OOS kids, and by the end, our OL will be as good as yours, maybe better.

    This guy is an idiot, plain and simple. OSU is going to land another 3/4 top OL, you can bank on it, we just got Lisle and are in in 5/6 more elite OT's.
    Your going to battle to keep your spot most school similar talent, you are not going to go against DL talent like OSU has now, and Meyer will add again in 2013 unless you go south to the SEC, FSU, Texas or USC.
    Michigan does not have close to OSU's DL speed and athleticism, and Meyer will lap them again with the DE's and DT's he has lined up from down south, the mid atlantic and the east coast.

    Whats funny, is that we've had a better recruiting class than scUM the last 10 years, EVERY YEAR, but they are on here bragging about their OL recruits, like it's some kind of moral victory for them to be ahead of us 4 weeks into the recruiting season.

    scUM fans, celebrate now while you can, because its going to be a short lived celebration. We will see what our classes look like on signing day, 2013.

  • Glad to see Lisle in the fold now. I have a gut feeling Pocic will be a Buckeye too after a visit.

    What's funny is your assertion is completely FALSE. If your going to lie about a fact, atleast make it a fact that is not easy to double check.

    Don't think he will be going to Michigan, just a gut feeling. Think it will be OSU then ND.

    that took real brains to come up with.. you know.. with the 10 thousand other lineman you have signed this year..

  • Charske +1, why the hell would they go to a Buckeye board to talk to each other about their scum OL.
    Did the scum board just shut down and close up.

  • Cristach- sorry, we've beat you 7 of the last 10 years. But even that's not completely accurate. A few of those years we only took around 15 guys, our classes were small compared to yours. The more recruits you get the better your class will be. So you beat us based on quantity.

    In 2012 our class was better, 2013 won't be any different.

    That doesn't even matter, man. We've beat them on the field in 9 of the last 11 years. That won't change a whole lot over the next 11 years. Yes. they'll win some, but that is it. We've only had a few brave and somewhat classy souls from TTUN come on here over the last 3 or 4 years. Now, every 18 year old, picking his nose, sitting in his parents burned out Detroit basement fouls up this site. Christ!

    Yes, and this vid is for those said down voting, twinkle-toed co&k suckers, who I mentioned sitting sitting in their parents burned out Detroit basement! What a bunch of limp-wrist ed pu$$ys!

  • Why is everybody getting their panties in a bunch in the first inning of a 12 inning game?? scUM has done well in its OL recruiting and in a hurry. Congrats to them. We have several 4* OL recruits on our board with legitimate shots at them, if not being the probable winner with most of them. I like what we did with the OL in 2012 and with an incredibly short of tiem to work with. Reid Fragel will be a real horse at RT in 2012. I jsut wish we had converted him much earlier in his career at OSU. He didn't/doesn't care where he plays, he just wants to see the field. This kid will play on Sundays and at RT! Converting Balwin is also a good move. Both Fragel and Baldwin have good speed (for an OLineman) and have very good body flexibility.

    With respect to our 2013 OL class, Bivins is an honest 4+* and certainly compares favorably with scUM's recruits. Unless something untoward happens, he is very likely to commit to OSU by the end of Spring Ball. With scUM filling/filled(?) up, we have at least a 50/50 shot at Pocic and I will bet on Urban with any otherwise 50/50 shot. Peterson will eventually get his 4th * and become the heir apparent Center and is a great get. And I like our chances with the kid from Massachusetts, although he may need tor redshirt a year. When NLOI day comes next February, we will have a VERY good OL haul, just scUM does have and will retain. It will be like old times, except we will still kick the tar out of the arrogant wannabies.

    Very curious to see if Mich does get another OL commit

    Nope...it appears that door is closed, from insiders and Pocic himself. They said they may consider another late in the process if they have spots...but sure elite guys like Pocic and McGovern. will be gone by then.

  • We got Decker, Dodson, and O'Connor this year (along with Boren and Elflein)

    We already have the top tackle in Ohio (Lisle) committed for 2013. Our chances are very good on Bivin and Pocic, and we have other legit targets with guys like Colin Mcgovern and others. Who cares what Michigan does? Outside of offensive line, which they've done better than us (but not by an enormous margin), we've gotten better hauls at nearly every other position. Our DL class was one for the ages, we got 4 4* linebackers last year, we got two running backs rated higher than anyone in scUM's class.

    Again, Michigan is back to recruiting the way they should. However, there are two things to remember. 1) We're still getting the best talent in Ohio. 2) Even if our classes are comparable every year, I'll take Urban Meyer's X's and O's over Fred Flintstone any day of the week. There's a reason why Freddy is slightly better than a .500 coach in his career, and Urban has won big every step along the way.
