Cam Burrows on Twitter

I don't make a habit out of following OSU football players, but I have been following Cam Burrows since his commitment. Tonight he tweets that there was talk of him decommitting. He also referenced that he doesn't like recruits that thing they are going to be handed a starting spot rather than competing for one. Also tweeted he doesn't like softness.

Anyways, I have no idea what all of the tweets are even about? Can someone (maybe Alex) enlighten me and others here on what's going on with Burrows' tweets tonight? Might be much ado about nothing but I just found it out of the blue. Thanks guys

Cam said he only said he wasnt decommitting because he had heard some reporters were claiming he was...Cam's as all buckeye as anyone in this class, no worries on this guy.

Favorite Buckeye: Obviously BJ Mullens

That's kinda what I thought too. I thought he was as solid as anyone. Seems ALL BUCKEYE to me. I just don't get where all of this came from or which reporter decided to be a dumb@$$?

He is 100000000% buckeye... someone was trying to get a scoop and failed... hard

Not quite sure who he was talking about... maybe Hurst?  Had to be someone he has met on his trips and that would be my guess... but it's kinda pointless to analyze sub-tweets like that

Cause I couldn't go for three

I'll dive into the speculation here.. IF (a pretty big if) he was talking about a player he's trying to recruit, my money would be Derrick Green. Just sayin

There is no substance to these tweets. Just vague-subtweeting. You don't need Alex to tell you that. If Cam was considering transferring, why would he but hardcore recruiting players to join him?

I think he's talking about Heuerman.... Everyone thought he commited on his visit and had probably told the guys he was gonna go public now he's backing off since Miami Fl spent all day at his school trying to get him to rethink it... and I think its working.

Another site speculated that he was tweeting about Love.

I'd find it incredibly surprising if he did. Would make very, very, very little sense. Another reason this twitter thing is stupid.

Especially since Burrows may be handed a starting spot basically upon his arrival haha

There's a chance (slim) both Roby and Howard are gone after this year, then you have Grant and Reeves Burrows and Woodard for at least 2 spots (3 in the nickel).  Burrows doesn't seem the type to worry about competition but he seems to have a good shot to get a lot of playing time early since he's a top 5 CB across the board

I think it was a Love tweet.

Speaking of Howard, did he sit out the spring game? I thought D. Grant played fairly well. I say that tentively because I dont know whose responsibility it was to cover Solomon Michael Thomas.

I don't always take names when I kick ass but when I do, they most often belong to a Wolverine.

My guess was Heuerman as well.

Think about it: J. Heuerman, Vannett, Thomas, Baugh, then him.

@Recruitbuck, maybe, but he's a smart enough kid to know that looking at the order of arrival doesn't set the depth chart. Also, Cam is smarter than to alienate someone making their decision this week

It's not Heuerman.....but I don't think there's much to see here...trust me though, Mike Heuerman isn't scared of competition

@Irricoir, Travis Howard played during the spring game.  I think he may have been on Thomas' team, though.  For the portions of the game that I watched on BTN, Roby was shadowing Thomas (and got called for obvious PI on one play).

Thomas and Ty Williams showed why it will be a bright spot in our corps with the tall recievers. They didn't break away, they didn't run track meet routes, but they were big, physically demanding guys, and Thomas should the smaller Roby some physicality that he probably wasn't used to.

What if this is true and McCray is getting in his ear along with the other scUM recruits. You never know with these kids.

Burrows is as much of a buckeye as you will ever find. The way he interacts with the fans, fellow commits, guys who are already on the team and actively pursuing anyone who is currently uncommitted in this class. You don't get much more committed to this team and university than he is.

dont understand how this could possibly be anything considering the spring game was a few days ago, and 2 ESPNU 150 players committed, none of which are at his position...If he is wavering then itd be a big shock and all of this build up for fan support that he has done would have been a complete waste

He's 110% Buckeye. It was one dumb reporter trying to get a story.

Said reporter picked the wrong tree to bark up with this one. a blind man could smell burrows love for ohio state.

@BUCKSANITY - Burrows was trolling and pranking McCray just last week. I wouldn't worry about McCray.
