Mel Tucker is absolutely destroying it on the trail....wow.
I do wonder how long any human can keep up this level of energy, and relatability. Hopefully it pays off for now

I remember when that was a great destination.
College football did a great job of saying the entire season is about a postseason tournament, while making that postseason tournament awful.  Hell, I thought Mike Leach was full of shit, but I'd prefer a 64 team playoff to this.

I'll still do my simulated season this year, with a 6 game regular season, followed by a double elimination tournament

MSU gets a commitment from 4* CB Jaylon Braxton out of TX, who also held offers from LSU, Nebraska, PSU and Baylor

4th 4* verbal in the past 8 days.  That gives MSU 7 4/5* commits, tied with PSU for 2nd most in the conference, behind only OSU (9).  Northwestern and Michigan each have 2, nobody else with more than 1
MSU Rivals writer just put in a CB for him to flip to Arkansas, lol

OSU picked up a pair of 5* WRs this week, so maybe they'll finally get that offense off the ground

Finally! They’ve just been so weak on the outside of late

Nebraska picked up a commitment from one of its June visitors, as 2023 Regis Jesuit (Colo.) linebacker Hayden Moore committed to the Huskers.

The 6-foot-3, 210-pound Moore officially visited Nebraska the weekend of June 18, and picked the Huskers over scholarship offers from Michigan, Iowa, Colorado, Iowa State and others.

Moore has been a productive defender, and as a junior tallied111 tackles, including 11 tackles for a loss and five sacks.


Moore, who also holds offers as a pitcher, will have the opportunity to play both baseball and football at Nebraska.

Moore is a three-star prospect with an overall rating of 0.8411 according to the industry-generated 247Sports Composite, making him the No. 9 prospect in the state of Colorado for 2023.

It interests me that these offers are made to rising seniors before they play their last year in HS.  How many great players gelled in that final year?  Or fell apart?

More than a few. 

Some good seniors get caught in the wash if they come on late. If they falter as seniors, sometimes coaches find ways to tell them to buzz off.

So on Monday OSU gets a commitment from a 5* WR.

Then on Tuesday OSU gets a commitment from a 5* WR.

They are not the same kid.

WTF.

I think that any fears OSU fans had that Ryan Day would take the Buckeyes a step back in the recruiting department, have been put to rest in part with thanks to Brian Hartline.

Yeah it seems like with Ryan Day and Brian Hartline there, they'll continue to get the best of the best at QB and WR.  I'm still a little concerned that the OL/DL and overall defensive recruiting isn't all that great.  Gotta get a little better if you want a shot against Bama.  I thought they totally mauled the Buckeyes on both sides of the line in the last meeting, although all you'll really hear about is how they torched the secondary.

Yes- they mauled the DL more so.  But so did Oregon and UM last season. Whether you believe me or not- I will tell you it had very little to do with OSU talent.  It’s easy to do when you know EXACTLY what the defense is doing in every snap.

They did mail the OL to a lesser degree. Remember thought that in that game, Ohio State lost 90% of its running threat on the first play from scrimmage when Trey sermon left the game.  That also makes it very easy for the Defense. Still Ohio State managed to put up 24 points plus one dropped a touchdown pass in that game.  That was the same Ohio State law fence that ripped a very stout Clemson defense to shreds in the previous game.
Get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.

Today's commit was a 4* WR.  Trending down.

UW got a 4* CB today, out of Georgia. That might help a little.
