I'm down in South Florida. Ran into a guy at the pool who saw my Buckeyes hat and he said "We almost flipped Smith!" 

"Excuse me?"  Wanted to act like I didn't know, or care that much because I like when people have to scramble mentally.  And I don't like talking sports with idiots. 

"The number one recruit in the country.  He's going to Ohio State.  We almost flipped him.  But you guys offered a big last second package and he took that instead."

"I don't  know.  I the  package we usually offer is the first round of the NFL draft."

"Well, we got your running back."

"Sounds like you're a bit more into it than me but I'll make sure to tell Maurice Clarett." 

AND THEN an hour later I get into the car, and on sports radio that's the line being pedaled.  That "Ohio State offered him a much bigger last second deal..." 

To fans of Miami, all it can be is money.
