Here is our final run down to look forward to tomorrow:

Live Chat starting at 8 AM EST (Jeremy and I will be answering your questions and providing updates all day)
Shortys/Gray Boxes with recruiting updates as players announce. Commitment times are: Joel Caleb-8:30 AM, Bam Bradley-8:45 AM, Deontay McManus-9:00 AM, Jamal Marcus-10:30 AM, Kyle Dodson-12:15 PM
We will have a marquee scrolling at the top of the site, updated live for when letters of intent came in. Forgot who gave us this suggestion of having a "bottom line" but we are executing this and it should be cool to see live updates "scroll" across your screen
Once the class is in, we will have a "wrap-up" piece of sorts, displaying the entire class as it stands tomorrow (Diggs and Neal will remain), along with some notes from the official OSU release
We will have footage ASAP once we get it uploaded from the OSU coaches' presser where they will discuss each member of the new class, as well as have some early enrollees on hand to speak to the media.
Overall it should be a pretty epic day. Jeremy and I will be tweeting all day (@alex11w and @BirmBuckeye11W), as well as trying to track down some players to get their words on making things official...going to be a fun day!

You are a close second to Urban Meyer in making recruiting fun again! Cheers to you at the staff @ 11 Warriors.

Alex or Jeremy,

Are the guys signing tomorrow signing a 4 year scholarship guarantee? I read an article recently that seemed to think they were, but I haven't heard anything else about it.

Are other conferences doing this, too? Or is it unique to B1G?

dbit on 31 Jan 2012 - 9:38pm #

Whoops, scratch my question, as one of you just posted the answer in Buckshots

So is it true that Jamal Marcus is probably going to sign with ECU tomorrow?

Alex on 31 Jan 2012 - 9:41pm #

yes they will be a 4 year guarantee I believe

Alex

Looking forward to the NSD chat. I just joined the site and I just want to say you do a great job. There are a lot well-written stories and solid information on this site. And there doesnt seem to be very much of the childish posting ive seen on other sites. I've been a buckeye fan since 1970 (i was 7) and grew up in Columbus and graduated from OSU. Havent been back to Columbus in a long time, but still very much a die hard buckeye.

The closer it gets the more nervous i get that the Dodson to USC rumors are true and then Marcus will go to ECU... just a gut feeling....

Is it Saturday Yet on 1 Feb 2012 - 7:46am #

Today is my birthday. I never followed recruiting until 11W. (and im not following as close as some of the others) I'm hoping for good news today for the O line.

Alex on 1 Feb 2012 - 7:50am #

Ha have about 15 lettes in already...post up in 11 minutes!

Thanks for the kind words JLBNYC...you located in NYC? if so, where at?

Happy birthday is it saturday

For those of you holding your breath, try being 5 hours ahead of EST - torture! The next 5 hours should be EPIC!

This is like laying in your room as a child, staring at the clock on Christmas morning, waiting until it hits 7 am, because your parents told you not to get up before then....bring on the gray boxes of happiness today!
