December 13, 201114 yr Se’Von Pittman (DE) who was committed to Michigan State and Tommy Schutt (DT) committed to Penn State both decommitted yesterday and gave their verbal to the Buckeyes. Looks like Meyer is making an immediate impact on the recruiting trail and placing a high priority on the D-Line. :thumb:
December 13, 201114 yr What separates the SEC from the rest of the country is not necessarily traditional skill positions but , rather, speed at the DL position.
December 13, 201114 yr What separates the SEC from the rest of the country is not necessarily traditional skill positions but , rather, speed at the DL position.Yep. That is where Florida dominated Ohio State a few years back.
December 13, 201114 yr Yep. That is where Florida dominated Ohio State a few years back. Agree! The athletic defensive line against a non athletic offensive line = Heisman Trophy winner running for his life!!!
December 13, 201114 yr If the Bucks can get a commitment from DE Noah Spence, they should be set at that position with Pittman and also Adolphus Washington. OSU had no pass rush this year from their defensive ends. I love John Simon and Jonathon Hankins but they are far from speed rushers that are needed on the outside.

They have 2 coaching staffs. One can spend all there time recruiting. The other preparing for a bowl.
December 13, 201114 yr Author The Buckeyes cuurently have an advantage over the rest of the college world. They have 2 coaching staffs. One can spend all there time recruiting. The other preparing for a bowl. The do not have two “staffs”, they have Meyer and the current staff and a waiver from the NCAA to allow Meyer to recruit. The same waiver that Illinois has applied for this year and other schools in the same situation have routinely received like Michigan between Carr and Rich Rod.
December 14, 201114 yr Urban also locked up star RB Brionte Dunn tonight who was strongly considering Michigan and slightly considering USC. All visits are off he is 100% a Buckeye!
December 14, 201114 yr So far lots of "Big 10" players, not "SEC" players...I think they'll still be slower than the Bamas and LSU's..
December 14, 201114 yr So far lots of "Big 10" players, not "SEC" players...I think they'll still be slower than the Bamas and LSU's.. Can't fix that overnight or with this recruiting class minus a few players here and there. Wait until the class Urban brings in next year.
December 14, 201114 yr I think Meyer will clean house in the Midwest. It's easy to recruit elite talent in the south to UF, but I think it'll be a tougher sell to get the top guys from Florida, Georgia, Texas to come freeze their boys off in Northern OH...

Things were improving in that area on the line but were not there yet. Both Skill positions and the problems on the line will soon be history. Urban is just getting warmed up.....:thumb: Agreed, if some rumors are true then there are a couple of verbal commits to Miami snd Fla., Mich. that are now reconsidering and will look at tOSU. Urban also locked up star RB Brionte Dunn tonight who was strongly considering Michigan and slightly considering USC. All visits are off he is 100% a Buckeye!:thumb::thumb: He was one that I was talking about above. Meyer will reseal the fence around Ohio that Hoke has pulled a couple from and will load up on speed, athletes out of Florisa, Georgia and others. What Richt at UGA doesn't get out of GA, then Meyer will get his share of the others, GA. is loaded with h.s. talent as well. Sorry B. Hoke.......your "Ohio" school is on the way up. (and btw- I love Hoke bringing back the "jabs" that go along with the Michigan/OSU rivalry along with putting life/opposition back in Michigan football as well, I mean that. I am not a Michigan hater like alot of OSU fans are. I respect that program and enjoy the rivalry along with good natured jabs.)
December 14, 201114 yr The top tier kids in the south will still choose the UGA,UF, Miami, Bama, LSU, FSU, etc. Urban will gets his fair share of good talent in the south but the majority of the Souths blue chippers will stay in the south.

Man that was my favorite part about football in late October into November.......:taz:
