Agreed, Parker Fleming needs to be fired. We also need Laurinaitis on the trail recruiting because that’s where he would be best at right now. As a GA he can’t go on the road and do that. The defensive staff needs a jolt of recruiting energy in the worst way.
why would you think that the little animal would be a GREAT recruiter?
OUR????? since when have you been a buckeye fan?
i didn't know he did much recruiting for ND, not sure he was allowed to go out on the road...
He was noted at ND for his positive impact on recruiting. Regardless of any limitations, he’s still allowed to make phone calls and handle recruits on campus.
He’s younger and has a vibrant personality, something Knowles doesn’t have. Knowles is going to need great recruiters around him to be successful since he just can’t relate to these kids on the trail.
Not blaming anyone. But I doubt Knowles told Ransom ‘bite on every move and don’t worry if the receiver gets behind you’.
Only good play I've ever seen Ransom make was his interception against Michigan State in which I think he was playing a deep third. He also played good overall against Notre Dame. He was God awful in 2021overall.
I don't buy it. I've seen reporting that Tennessee has already locked that deal up with him. You can now even find his name in the Volunteer student directory. He may have been visiting OSU and TTUN to leverage a better NIL package from UT. Hope the reporting is wrong, but doesn't sound good.
Agreed, I'm not counting my roosters until they're hatched. However, he was admitted to Tennessee but that didn’t mean he was going there. It just got him through the admissions process in case he decided to go. WR Isaiah Neyor did the same last year before flipping from Tennessee to Texas in the portal. So being in the student directory means essentially nothing.
That’s fair. Either way, I would feel more comfortable if he was already in OSU’s student directory. Lol.
I won't feel comfortable until he commits and enrolls. I will say this guy isn't as good as he's being made out to be. He got benched midway through the season. Regardless, he's a unicorn CB which OSU just doesn't have on their roster and he still has a lot of room to grow.
If you look at his statistical performance, he was on par with Cam Brown's production this past year. So that's not bad considering his age. If Burke and Hancock take the two corner spots, it will be nice to have a strong 3rd, along with Jyaire Brown and possibly Ryan Turner rotating in for depth as well.
Definitely worth a look. Has the size.
Why does a great team like Ohio State ALWAYS seem to struggle against those chumps up North? The OSU team that played UGA SHOULD have worn MEEEchigan OUT! When we played them last season in the semis. Our RT Jamarie Salyer WORE OUT Aiden Hutchinson. And we wore out Will Anderson as WELL. And BOTH went in the FIRST ROUND! And their award winning, best OL in the country was a JOKE!
Because Ohio State has turned into a finesse, mentally breakable team with a bad defense.
Always? Did you miss the last two decades? This is a very recent development. Bringing in a Big 12 DC didn’t help.
Yet they always beat ND. So what does that say about the little green men?
THE Ohio State needs to be in the SEC for a minute if they desire pressure. You wouldn't believe the heat UGA is taking for their supposed soft schedule in 2023. THEIR schedule includes Auburn, Mississippi, Florida, South Carolina, Tenn, and Kentucky, with a potential SEC Championship game against either LSU or the Gumps. They had attempted to play Okla in the season opener in Norman, but the NCAA stepped in to nix that notion. So they were left to replace that game with Ball State. CONVERSELY, OSU only has games with ND, MEEchigan, and Penn State to even raise a sweat over.
NOBODY decent should EVER lose to MEEEchigan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If they were in the SEC, they would be likened to AUBURN, MISSISSIPPI STATE, ARKANSAS, KENTUCKY, or MISSISSIPPI. And NONE of those have sniffed a conference championship ring, in the past decade or so.
