So in doing my daily recruit stalking on 247, I notice a lot of chatter has come about for top 15 player Raekwon McMillan ('14) and Ohio State. People are saying look at his social media networks and you will see. Well after checking everything out, I came away liking Ohio States odds. I know people dont like reading to much into tweets, but its sort of a Joey Bosa situation all over again.
It started with him saying if Hand committed to OSU, he would too. Here are some others
Random conversation with OSU fan. Like how he uses the word "us."Bruh I seriously hope Ohio State visit me this week ,, !!

Also if you really want to get stalkerish, check out his facebook page. HIs cover photo is a model the Shoe. And if you check his twitter picture, the football he is holding has a certain schools logo on it. Thats all I have, try and tame the excitement you get.@CORTEZ_THAFOOL but I dnt mess with any team in Michigan ,,, #BuckeyeNation

Sounding good. The bad thing of course is that he's so young that it'll probably be a while before he makes the call.
I would love for Raekwon to come on board, but let's just wait and see. There have been others I thought were locks who ended up decommitting...
You forgot the one where he says that "Meyer will get us all on board"

He's not even a Jr in high school yet, a lot can happen. Like he may end up not being a great player his senior year. He could get hurt. I know it's good to get guys on board early, but am I the only one that thinks locking up sophomores is just a bit much?
He's currently finishing his junior year, no? Class of 2014
This was posted in May of 2012 so he wasn't a Junior yet
Ahhhh, attention to details would help! And here I thought the whole post began today.
Downvote, huh? Alright. Welp, see ya later.
Big gulps eh?
Nothing like dancing on the field in 02...
I retweeted Kevin Noons retweet about getting Hand on board and McMillian followed me on twitter. I dont know how I feel about a 16 year old following me on twitter, plus the fact im not a booster.... Needless to say he will never get a tweet from me.
Ok, no one is saying that he's an osu lock or that he's close to comitting or anything like that, I think the post was just meant to show that one of the top 25 guys in the country is interested in OSU and is a guy to keep an eye on.
But yeah, I knew it was a good sign that this was one of the only 2014s to take a visit during the cycle with all the 2013s.
Good post until he starts in trying to flame...We don't call recruits leans until they visit 3+ times and have us in their top 2. If you read down the forum, I reposted the tweet about him and Hand and said how jealous we'd be if you get those two. Lame.
Anyway, @ BTALBERT, going after Sophomores does seem a bit much, but the recruiting landscape is changing. Texas was the first, now, this year, there are 11 teams with at least 11 recruits, and 17 with at least 9, and we're not even to June yet. With the elite talent, you have to start building the relationship earlier and earlier. I don't like it, but I think it's here to stay and will only get worse.
Those who stay will be CHAMPIONS!

We could be signing 12 year olds..../lanekiffined
I don't always take names when I kick ass but when I do, they most often belong to a Wolverine.
Him and Dante Booker please, then we're done at lb next year.
edit: Actually give me Davonte James too
Favorite Buckeye: Obviously BJ Mullens
I'd take Garrett too if he wanted to commit.
I'm pretty sure he's going to be a Buckeye. Doesn't mention any other programs other than OSU. He loves OSU. He just started following me on twitter too and I haven't even messaged him. Musta seen the OSU logos I'm rollin' with. But damn, this kids film is beastly for only being a fresh/soph. in the clips... He's gonna be a stud for years to come!
@BJ I'd like to take a look at Michael Ferns too, he looks like a powerhouse
From Raekwon's twitter feed:
He would be a huge get.
well we did offer a freshman but hes a bosa so i totally agree with it
mark may wins douchebag of the year... again
