This could play in our favor if thats the case. I really would love to have him.

I really do believe that he is going to de-commit and join the Buckeyes. I have said this a couple of times. I also said that it is going to be later in the process, which he just confirmed in that article. Everything my sources have been telling me is coming to pass. I am very confident that this is the way he will go about it so he can come to OSU with as little backlash from the home-state fans as possible.

I was in on Steve Helwagen's chat the other day and asked him this question on Jenkins cause I wanted to gauge where his mind was at regarding Jenkins. He told me Jenkins has a best of both world situation. He stated to two things to support his statement. One I agreed with and one I will take issue with. 1) He told me Jenkins can be a state wide hero by staying with the Mountaineers or join one of the best offensive line classes this year at OSU and possibly win a NC. I agree there. Where I take issue is where he said that playing at WVU is just as competitive as playing at OSU and the talent difference is not that large a difference. I disagree with him there.

The Big East has not been the same since Va Tech, Miami, and BC left that conference. Simple as that. Rutgers would not be where they are in that conference if it had to play those teams. WVU would not be there, and neither would "The Ville." Sorry to say, but all three of those teams are second tier teams. The reason their records are better is because they replaced games against Miami, BC, and Va Tech...with Connecticut, S.Florida, and Cincinnati. That conference is being hyped because unfortunately it is a BCS conference, and college football had to try and legitimize them to continue to sell the BCS.

Yeah, the Big (L)East is nothing compared to when they had Miami and VT. And your right, this conference gets a lot of attention mainly because its a BCS conference.

It is funny how since leaving for the ACC, it has been Va Tech and BC that have been more competitive in that conference than Miami...and Louisville, West Virginia and Rutgers have come to the forefront over a weak Big East. I remember the ACC wanting Miami primarily while Va Tech and BC were just kind of quality teams that were thrown in. Now Va Tech and BC are teams that must be reckoned with in that conference, and Miami has really struggled.

WVU is slowly starting to get some blue chippers, but with the new WHAC up and running, it's got to be hard to say no to tOSU. Plus there are things to do around campus and in the city unlike Morgantown.
