ATH Ezekiel Elliot commits to Ohio State

  • He probably wants to play rb and ND was recruiting him as an athlete. I think that was probably a factor here. ND probably was looking to him as a corner. Just my opinion.

    That could have played a part. I know he had developed a really strong relationship with the guy who was UNC's HC to finish the year. He was after him hard.

  • Was hoping we would get him. Good get for OSU.

  • Urban LIar probably told him he would be a RB and then will move him to CB once he is on campus. That's how they do things in the SEC North err OSU. OSU matches none of the ideals this kid espoused coming out of his visit last week but to each their own. Sounds like RB was where he wanted to play

    Urban is a scum bag, but it is definitely within the realm of possibility that Elliott simply enjoyed his visit to OSU more than ND. The two schools are polar opposites, and it just depends on what you are looking for in a school/campus and in the locker room.

  • Too bad he decided to suck down all the thugsville kool-aid. We should never lose a kid from St Louis to the criminals since we lose ALL the top Ohio recruits to them. This is a disappointment and even a surprise to me and I am definitely a pessimist. SAD so SAD that he picked the group of winners on the field and losers off. I can guarantee you he will be very sorry. But Good Luck Ezekiel.

  • Just re-read Steve's article "Elliot Gears Up For A Decision" posted a few days ago. After reading it again I still feel that ND had the inside lane on him given his comments and those of his Dad. NO WAY did I see this quick of a decision right after their OSU visit - you would think that they would take a few days to make their evaluation. So much for the "top notch private school" taking a back seat to the "good state school" - don't 'bag on' Urban this is all on Elliot and his Dad. Do like his athletic abilities not much impressed with the rest. Maybe I'm just blowing off steam:) GO IRISH!!

  • Darn the luck...things were looking pretty good with EE till this weekends visit to OSU. Do you think that the LB Smith from Ft. Wayne will follow?

    Zaire and Matuska (as well as most of the recruiting world) would probably be surprised to find out that they are not top recruits. Or, maybe they have moved out of Ohio and just not reported it yet biggrin
