As the College and NFL season (almost)  gets started, I’m looking back at Buckeye targets who ultimately committed elsewhere and regret it. By “regret it” I’m talking about their college and NFL careers, that haven’t seen the success they had hoped for. 
 

Marvin Wilson is the first name on my list. Highly recruited out of HS, almost chose OSU, but landed at FSU. His career there was B- at best and now he’s a practice squad guy with the Eagles after going undrafted. Granted Jimbo left halfway thru his time at FSU, but he never really broke through and elevated his game like I think he could have with LJ.

Second on my list, Darnay Holmes. Okay career at UCLA and currently with the Giants after being taken late in the draft. I’d like to think by playing with Okudah, Arnette and Fuller he would have been a higher draft pick, etc….

Lastly, Anthony Cook. Went to Texas and currently is???? I know he almost went to OSU but ended up staying close to home. Can’t imagine things ending in Columbus the way they did in Austin.

Let’s hear your thoughts or other players in similar situations!
