That said, zettel made a great decision when he turned down his first love Michigan to go to Penn State and look what happened?

Know telling what will happen going forward. I'm glad there is some fire back in The Game and stuff like this just heats it up more.
Some of the best behind the scenes battles between Bo and Woody involved recruiting kids from ohio. We just never heard much about it because it didn't get the press hype it does now. Woody, I am told, threw chairs and punched holes in walls when Bo would get a kid from ohio. Didn't matter if Woody had an eye on him or not to play for osu but it pissed him off when ever Bo got an ohio kid to play for Michigan. This stuff runs deep. Glad to see it return.
The comment about being a Vet above (I assume Veterinarian) ..... is that what Dunn wants to do? Or is that just a joke? If true, osu has one of the top vet schools in the nation. That would be a no brainer for him to pursue that there.Last edited by Jeff Buchanan; December 14, 2011, 01:44 PM.Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished.

Dunn was never really "ours". He was a OlieO commit who was having some serious second thoughts. Meyer came along, and apparently put those second thoughts to rest. Maybe one day we'll know what it was that eventually solidified his commitment to OlieO. In the grand scheme, it really won't matter. Dunn will likely only face Michigan 4 times, and he's going to have to deal with a team that is in transition to a new offense. Michigan will move on with other people, and I daresay that we'll find a couple good RB's over the next few recruiting seasons."The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, ..

I don't there's much of a mystery to that. Fickell kept OSU in the game, but UFM was what solidified his commitment -- and I'd call it more than that -- UFM got him to commit to OSU.Maybe one day we'll know what it was that eventually solidified his commitment to OlieO.
A lot was made about "offenses" and such, but at the end of the day, you're casting your lot with the program you feel most comfortable with in terms of players, coaches, the direction the program is going and probably a host of other things (if it were primarily about offenses, Dunn would be in Madison where he'd rush for 2,500 yards a year). UFM got him there.
This recruitment also opened my eyes up to the difference b/t Tressel's soft sell and UFM's more aggressive approach. Interesting contrast.Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?

David Perkins, a RB/DB from South Bend may be coming in this weekend for an official visit. I'll see if I can link his highlights here. As noted on another site, maybe he plays bad competition, but his highlight film is awesome. He's got great size (6'3" 230) and seems to be pretty quick.

Me too. I would think more often than not the undefeated team really ends up at a disadvantage. You have to beat the same team twice to remain that way. And if the one-loss team is down far enough in the stupid BCS rankings, winning merely gets them a shot at a BCS bowl, not the BCS championship.
Of course, that may all change with a new format, but who knows.Comment

The TV networks wouldn't have paid anywhere near as much for the title game if you put the three biggest draws in the East; M, Ohio & PSU.Comment
