Jacobs family now gets a B1G rivalry
(espn insider)
Let the trash-talking begin.
When Maryland announced it was joining the Big Ten on Monday, it set forth an interesting situation in the Jacobs household.
Taivon Jacobs (Forestville, Md./Suitland) is a senior wide receiver ticketed to play at Ohio State next fall as a 2013 Buckeyes commit. His brother Levern is a freshman wide receiver for the Terrapins.

Q&A: Andrew Wiggins talks UK, fans, recruiting after game at Scott Co. (courier journal)
GEORGETOWN, Ky. – Andrew Wiggins, the nation’s No. 1 basketball prospect and a top recruiting target of the University of Kentucky, had 17 points (6 of 18 from the floor, 4 of 9 on free throws) and 11 rebounds on Sunday in helping his team, Huntington (W.Va.) Prep, defeat North Carolina’s Christian Faith Academy 61-44 on Sunday at Scott County High School.
There were more than 2,000 fans in attendance, most of whom were wearing some kind of UK apparel. So were UK coach John Calipari, assistants Orlando Antigua and Kenny Payne and UK players Kyle Wiltjer, Jarrod Polson and Brian Long.
Wiggins, formerly the nation’s No. 1 junior who recently reclassified to 2013, signed autographs for a line of dozens of fans after the game. Before that, he spoke with the media, reflecting on his game, the crowd and where his recruitment stands.

gene, in your opinion how good is gardner?
mark may wins douchebag of the year... again
From what I've seen of Gardner, once he gets his hands on you, it's over. He's a really good run blocker and will blow up anything in his path if he gets moving, esp on a trap or a pull. I love that Urban said, if u lose the weight we will offer, and he did. That shows me great work ethic, committment and drive to be better. I think he's gonna be another steal and will be a very good interior lineman at OSU.
Where did Skai Moore say that Rutgers is his favorite? TIA
I wonder if the NCAA shoe is ever going to drop on Callipari and UK? I mean it's dropped on him at his other schools. I would think it's just a matter of time before the same happens at UK.

cant believe we are behind rutgers for Moore.
#Buckeyes
Moore may want to reconsider now that we will be playing Rutgers every year.
Yes there are two Buckeyes in Ann arbor on this site!
Anyone have a guess on Worley's decision?
Saw that Gene updated it with Worley.... I got wide-eyed..... Come on buddy!!
worley gonna be a buckeye?
O'Deez330
stark county football
I'm sure Worley is a nice kid, and I wish him luck anywhere but here.
Guess I am unpopular lately ... first I finally admitted that I've thought Ted Ginn was never great and never near where a consistent contributor should be.
Now I'm actively knocking the Glenville pipeline ... I hate watching C Bryant play (coverage in OT Saturday excepted) and I am sick of grade challenged, personal foul gathering, overhyped kids.
@golden - are you insinuating all players from glenville are the same? Please go on with your argument...
Updated
Do not want to be unkind, particularly because they are kids. HOWEVER, none of the Glenville kids have endeared themselves to me. I like Hankins and Simon and Rolle and Baugh and Boren and Miller .... they didn't screw around during recruiting or change their announcement dates or get called out for not learning the defense, or hurt themselves during stupid celebrations, or pick up a bunch of personal fouls, or intimate that they would go elsewhwere if their DB friend wasn't lured away from W Virginia, or any of the other crap that Mr. Ginn and his kids pull every year
I hope this kid comes on board. I do like his play. Very hard hitter.
On a side note, Mcmillan has Clemson as best visit yet, and now he is coming to the shoe for the game?
Get ready to change your mind sir.... Its about to get crazy
You didn't like Troy Smith? Donte Whitner?
Sorry Urban, Woody is still my favorite
Glenville- Heisman Trophy winner....2 NFL 1st round picks, Marcus Hall....not too shabby.
Forgot T Smith is a Glenville kid, Triv.
Ouch ... hard to argue, so I'll call him the exception to the rule!??!
.... annnnnnnnnnddddd (wait for it)..... Ray Small. smh
but seriously, has there ever been a pipeline like Glenville has been for the last 10 years? Unreal run.
theDuke
Sorry JohnBlair ... M Hall has not had a smooth ride and has not lived up to his press clippings. I do like him better than I used to despite the penalty in Madison on Saturday
I think many have voiced their opinions about Glenville kids on here and it's not always been very complimentary. There definitely have been some greats, and Ginn was certainly great in Columbus, maybe not afterward, but that has no bearing on how good he was here. There have been plenty of headaches from Glenville too or kids like Small and Rose who never lived up to their hype. Anyway, I don't hate kids from Glenville or anything, but it's about 50/50 whether they'll be awesome or worthless usually.
yeah, we all have opinions.
Wait, so kids can't change their announcement dates if they aren't decided where they want to go to college for the next 3-4 years? What? It affects them for the rest of their life, let 'em make decisions when they're ready. We honestly have no business judging these kids for changing their minds or delaying a decision.
Agreed Urbz.
And I'll continue to like the honor student, rah rah, follow-the-rules kids and continue not to like the go for the big hit while missing tackles, miss class and don't learn the defense kids.
Would love to hear Worley announce that he is a Buckeye!!! Go Bucks!!
@golden do you really have insight that says all glenville kids have bad grades?
@ Golden
"if irony were made of strawberries, we' d all be drinking a lot of smoothies right now."
when is worley announcing?
Seems like the only question is whether Worley's offer was committable. If yes, he's a Buckeye. If not, he'll be somewhere else.
Thinking he's a Buckeye. Maybe the Worley and Lattimore families can start arranging car pools?
Without Glenville we dont have 3 bcs title appearances. And who knows which of our rivals would have set up that pipeline instead. Msu? Scum? Wisc?
Lets go Worley! and bring Lattimore with you!!!!!!!!!!
O-H!
I must say Elliot is rising up on my list of favorite recruits, it seems like everytime he touches the ball he goes to the house!
Let's give the Glenville thing a rest....
I've got a question. Does anyone know who Urban is personally visiting for the last recruit spots?
I'd feel alittle disapointed if some of the last few kids that have gone elsewhere were visited by Mr Meyer and still said no to TOSU.
