Ohio State Recruiting

[Sox33OSU]

Can't believe we don't have a thread on this, but I want this board to get more populated during the season. This is a good thread to have. I'll try and update as much as I can.

For starters, here is a list of fall visits we have scheduled:

Sept 28 - Wisconsin
TE Tyler Luatua - La Mirada, CA
ATH John 'JuJu' Smith - Long Beach, CA

October 26 - Penn State
LB Raekwon McMillan - Hinesville, GA
DB Jamal Adams - Carrollton, TX

Nov 23 - Indiana
OT Chad Mavety - Garden City, NY

There are some commits and 2015 guys also scheduled to visit, but I want to keep this focused on uncommitted 2014 guys. More to come.

I'll try and update this as close to a daily basis as I can. We'll be having a lot more news coming over the next few months, but this class is getting full. The cruises are awesome, I've heard. Have a great time! I love hearing about the Buckeye fans of old that have all of the awesome stories to tell. Lot of history in that stadium!

Well then here's a fresh one, I guess. It isn't like we're exactly cluttered on this board. Hopefully that changes during the season.

I friggin mentioned this a few days ago. We have the 2nd rated class so far. Samuel is a buckeye. He is a 5 star recruit out of Brooklyn I believe. I'm always on Bucknuts. I'll keep the recruiting updated. We have some big OL who may be committing any day. Prince or Mavelet?

Not football....but mike mitchell's "little" brother mickey, a 5* basketball player in the 2015 class committed to Ohio State today...huge get

Scout.com: Mickey Mitchell Profile

Mickey Mitchell will join his older brother at Ohio State.

Mitchell, a five-star prospect out of Plano (Tex.) Prestonwood, committed to Thad Matta and his staff on Thursday. Mitchell's brother is a freshman linebacker on the football team.


"Mickey is 100 percent a Buckeye," Ken Mitchell told Scout.com about his son.


Joining his brother was always something that the younger Mitchell wanted to do, and on his unofficial visit he decided to pull the trigger.


"Mickey called me earlier and was discussing the plusses and minuses," said the elder Mitchell. "I just told him it was his decision and he had to do what was best for him. Obviously he felt Ohio State was the right place."


A host of schools courted Mitchell, including Kentucky, Stanford, Oregon, Oklahoma, Baylor, Texas, Louisville, Virginia, A&M, USC, UCLA and UNLV.


At 6-foot-8, 245-pounds, Mitchell is a hard playing power forward. He gets after it on the glass, is active on both ends and likes to face the rim for scoring opportunities. Mitchell missed his sophomore season due to a torn ACL injury.


Ohio State now has a pair of commits in their 2015 recruiting class. Mitchell joins Dayton (Ohio) Dunbar lead guard A.J. Harris to make up their current class.


Mitchell is currently ranked No. 15 overall in the 2015 class.

Mavety is in, I think, but I don't think he'll commit until this fall. I'm getting nervous about Prince because it sounds like Maryland may be gaining ground. Then again, they were saying the same about Rutgers and Samuel, so who knows?

If we get those 2, we're done with OL. Otherwise, IMO, we'll end up with -

Lattimore
Smith
McMillain
Holley

Then hopefully a couple of -
Gesicki
JuJu
Luatua
Dixon
Thomas (longshot)
Berrios

I think we're not looking good on Adams and I believe we're all but out on Noah Brown.

I think we will lock up Noah Brown. I can't imagine a school like Rutgers would even have a outside shot compared to OSU. However Rutgers is very close to home. I think he's a lock for us.

 

[mall3013]

Samuel is already a Buckeye 33. He committed last week. This dude is a serious speedster.

Pretty much everything I'm seeing now has him going to Rutgers. Sounds like the staff is higher on Dixon.

Hmm.. I think if Urban really wants him, which I still think he does, no doubt he will be a Buckeye. I'll do some more research. I know he's been mentioned recently being interested in Ruthers. We shall see. I can't wait to check out this kid Samuel.. kid is explosive. This team is going to be filled w Ted Ginn's. Lol.

The best bet is to check out the crystal ball predictions on 247sports.com. A ton of the Buckeye writers from menofthescarletandgray.com, Bucknuts, Eleven Warriors, etc. weigh in on there, and the most recent ones all have him going to Rutgers. It would kind of suck, but we've already got a big WR in this class in Lonnie Johnson. As far as Samuel is concerned, he is a sick athlete. I have him along with Joe Mixon as the most talented offensive athletes in the 2014 class. Sounds like Mixon is liking Cal, but when it comes to Urban, you never know.

Also, speaking of Ted Ginns, if you haven't done it yet check out James Clark's videos. If you slapped a red 7 on that kid, I couldn't tell a difference. He looks like a clone, and IMO is going to be one of the top freshmen on the team this year.

Who wins the 100 yard dash? Clark, Wilson, or Smith? Actually is it Smith that I'm thinking of? I thought it was one of our current WRs who is very fast?

Here we go Clark , Wilson or Samuel?

 

[mall3013]

The crystal ball prediction still has tOSU at a slight edge over Rutgers.
