Whether Mitchell, Johnson, and Quick choose us or someone else, can we as a fan base please not go to their twitters and mock them or tell them how stupid they are? I know fans from every school do this, but let's be the bigger man here and congratulate them and wish them nothing but the best. These athletes need to choose what's best for them, not what's best for Ohio State or us fans.
Having said that, I think we get all 3 and make it an incredible weekend for the future of Ohio State football!!!
really hope we dont' strike out on all 3. That being said, one of the most disgusting things i've seen is when fanbases make themselves look like total asshats on a recruit's twitter accounts.

I'm thinking we are 2 for 3 and get the LB's... If we miss on Quick we will end with:
Mitchell
Johnson
Gibson
Worley
Bell
TImmons/Wilson
I know I won't( I don't even have a twitter or facebook account). I care about recruiting, but it's not going to be the end of the world if Ohio State doesn't get them. I mean the Buckeyes did just go 12andOH without them.
"YOLO" = I'm about to do something extremely ignorant/stupid & I need an excuse to do it.
Well said, not a big fan of either outlet but if folks are going to use them....do it responsibly.

^ this.
"Get him a body bag, Yeah!"
Good luck to these young men wherever they may go!! They all have bright futures!!

I think the thing to remember is these are kids and while we all would prefer them to "make the right choice" to them that choice may not be the Buckeyes. Any or all of them choosing to go elsewhere is their decision and they should not be ridiculed for it, especially considering none of these kids have previously pledged to tOSU and are now "backing out."
With that being said, optimism is high and I have faith in Urban closing strong again!
Let's Go Bucks!
Deciding on a college is a big enough decision, let alone when you're deciding to play for one of the premier CFB programs in the country. I don't envy them having to make the choice. I don't understand the people that become so infatuated with these high school students and lose their mind when they choose the "wrong" school. Some people just need to grow up.
Hopefully they become Buckeyes, but whereever they end up, good luck to them and I wish them well.

Agreed... I checked out Baugh's twitter the other day and he was clownin' on what looked to be a fully-bearded child molester who was telling Baugh he was dumb for going to tOSU rather than tsun.
Sounded more like he was just bitter Ohio State got a shout out on tv.

As someone that had to make that decision, I can tell you firsthand how tough it is. In a way, he's lucky he has it down to just 2 schools. More often than not, you have friends and family members trying to steer you in one direction based on what THEY want. In a way, you feel like you are letting them down if you don't choose their particular school.
Who's on the list to watch for tonite?
In terms of possible commits? Trey Johnson announcing, most likely Bucks... and Max Redfield is announcing, but doesn't have an offer so I'm not sure why we're in his final 3.
