[RF2044]

Not sure who else he's visiting but we made a good impression

Thanks for the info, bnoro -- great to hear

I heard a school in OH not named The Ohio State.

I thought our days of battling Akron for recruits was over.

Let me guess, our old pals Sean Lewis and Macky are in the mix?

I'm thinking Toledo...but just a guess.

That's my guess also if it's not Ohio St

I have a good feeling about this kid to SU now especially after Jones and Kpogba commitment.

 

[kcsu]

Any chance we move him back to DT

I am thinking same thing. We really need big dt.

 

[bnoro]

No

 

[shu 49]

No

Do we have another dt that u like being recruited or are we looking Juco

So how does the new transfer situation work? Is this kid eligible to play immediately in 2019? Or still have to sit a year?

I believe he can play immediately. Transfers are no longer required to sit out beginning next year.

 

[leftytg]

noooooooooooooooooooooo.

Unless you graduate, you have to sit a year when you transfer (absent some other exception what does not appear to be the case). This has not changed. The redshirt stuff changed this year, but that does not apply to transfers.

To Cincy.

To Cincy.

Interesting. Maybe we liked one of the OTs that are visiting/visited more. Figured he'd come here after his visit, as I heard it went as well as the other 3.

I was kind of surprised that we would pursue a true transfer OL considering the number of guys we are losing (also factoring in that Deurig/Byrne are potential early departures). Losing 3-5 guys and using a slot on someone who can’t play for a year does pinch the 2 deep a bit. Tisdale seems like the better option to me.

The staff took a pass.

Bad fit ?

The staff took a pass.

I'm surprised to hear that, honestly. We don't get the opportunity to bring in too many blue chip prospects -- maybe he wasn't a cultural fit?

My guess is there will be a bunch of ovs the next two weekends.

The staff took a pass.

He also had a lot of friends on the Cinci team. Probably a better fit for him
