Sandusky was convicted and shortly after, Dorian Johnson committed to PSU. As horrible as this crap was, most of our recruits see themselves as distanced from the situation.
The thing is, right or wrong, kids often believe sell jobs. Look at USC - they're doing alright, despite sanctions and scholarship limits. Buckeyes have a bowl ban and they're doing just fine. UNC has scholarship sanctions and kids don't seem to mind.
In fact, PSU lost Ryan Switzer to UNC. Know what he said? He commented that UNC's scholarship offers were special because they didn't have as many spots. That's one way of looking at it. Never mind the fact that at the time, UNC had offers out to twice as many prospects as PSU did. Kids buy crap like that, and even with scholarship sanctions, coaches can twist it to seem positive. Crazy, but true.

Amen. I love that OSU is already out of the running though. With the way they're hyping 2014 already, it'll be a big Bucknut disappointment if OSU doesn't land McMillan, Booker, and Garrett, at the very least.
makes me smile anytime a top Ohio kid they want goes elsewhere, courtney love comitting to Nebraska when they thought he was a lock made me

Disappointment? Those are three of top 10 LB in the country next year. Getting one of them would be nice. Two would be outstanding. Three would be unheard of. There is a small chance we pull McMillan from Georgia. Booker would be the biggest hit if we couldn't get him. Garrett would hurt a little too because apparently he is close with Mike Vrabel.
And whomever said we missed on Kimbrough. Seriously? We never offered him a scholarship, told him he was low on our board and somehow that's a whiff. That is a tad delusional.
I honestly don't think you can call it a whiff if you never think you can get a recruit. Anzalone sure that's a miss (I'm not sure what you call that actually). Pocic that's a big miss. Courtney Love was a miss. But to say someone like Smith is a whiff. The kid didn't even want to go to the same high school as his brother Rod, why would we ever think he'd want to go to the same college. Ohio State never really had a chance. Sure Ohio State has missed on some prospects they wanted, but honestly who doesn't? ... except USC.
it's cute that you actually believe that Ducksworth

HAH! Alright, I'm going to dismantle you slowly, efficiently, and completely.
In addressing my first point over the 2014 LBs. While you may have a more realistic perspective over those kids, that's a far cry from the posters in this thread:
http://ohiostate.247sports.com/Board/122/first-commit-2014-10003030/1
FFS, look at this comment in response to "Who's the first 2014 commit?": "Clifton Garret! LB out of Ill. I would like to see Raekwon McMillian and Booker soon there after."
Next, missing on Kimbrough. You brought up offers - you really shouldn't have done that. Here's a list of every linebacker you've offered for 2013, and where they're committed:
Jaylon Smith - Notre Dame
Alex Anzalone - Notre Dame
Dorian O'Daniel - Clemson
Matt Rolin - South Carolina
Mike McCray - Michigan
Deon Hollins Jr. - UCLA
Ben Gedeon - Michigan
Peter Kalambayi - Stanford
Courtney Love - Nebraska
Yannick Ngakoue - MarylandSo right now, you've whiffed on EVERY SINGLE ONE of the LBs you've offered.
Back to Kimbrough - you never offered him, so clearly that indicates your interest, right? Well guess what - the entirety of Bucknuts is going ape over Mike Mitchell, but you haven't offered him yet either. I guess that means you're not interested in Mitchell?
On top of that, here's not 1, not 2, but 3 threads talking about wanting Kimbrough.
1. http://ohiostate.247sports.com/Board/122/Tim-kimbrough-9357250/1
2. http://ohiostate.247sports.com/Board/122/Love-commits-to-Nebraska-9179612/1
3. http://ohiostate.247sports.com/Board/122/Stop-pouting-we-go-on-9425717/1Finally, on the topic of Jaylon Smith, here's a thread from Bucknuts entitled "Jaylon Smith should be our #1 target". Boy, it sure sounds like a lot of people thought he had a very, very good chance of going to OSU...
BOOM.
ROASTED.
Go back to Bucknuts.

Also, CMXI, you would have a lot more ammunition if you could read some of those VIP posts on the Front Row - they're hilarious.
Yeah, I figure the VIP posts are equally ridiculous (if not more so), but what can I say - I enjoy owning Bucknuts in a manner easily accessible to everyone on 247.
