OSU cancels all recruting trips for this weekend ??????????

Posted

I know this isnt ND related but, recruits not being able to see the mayhem that will be going on in that stadium could help in the long run. That atmosphere will be nuts this weekend and could possibly sway guys like Martin and Wright, Thompson. I read this today, a quote from Kristofer O'Dowd:

I was scheduled to visit Ohio State this weekend but they called and said they cancelled all their recruiting trips. They want me to come in January but I might have already decided

I hope Ben Martin takes this personally. Martin could compete for playing time right away.

Any idea why they would cancel the trips? It's not like the game is going to be hyped anymore with the recruits there...it's already on every tv station.

From what I understand its all security related issues. Its a shame that you have to rewrite the rule books for a college football game. I understamd that its a 1 vs. 2 matchup, and a rivalry too, but damn, cancelling recruiting trips.

Hey IrishGuy you made 1000 posts :D :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :drunk:

Didn't JoePa do this for a PSU game last year and a few recruits got a little PO'ed about it?

Ah crap....I was planning on having my own thread thanking everyone for making me feel at home. I guess it can wait til 2k :-)

Thanks for noticing SJ.

:D Sorry I blew the announcement :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: Seriously Thanks and as always great to hear from you. Let us many post guys always remember at one point in time we all had but a single post. Membership is climbing into the 1,000, unfortunately I'd judge 100 + might be porno/spam, but what's cool is we are getting into 50,000 posts.

You are always in their IrishGuy :D :clap: :clap:

Just a reminder to those with 1 or a few posts we don't expect you to have the latest breaking news like I get :lol: :lol: Sir John stated jimmy Clausen has de committed from Weis and Notre Dame and states he has committed to Kim il Sun of North Korea. "I heard they were the bomb, the money was better and I like Oriental food", Jimmy told this reporter. "A little chop stick work and I'll be in the swing of things."

You didn't blow the announcement. I just overlooked my post count. I though I was in the 940 range.....I really need to quit drinking and posting.

Im a newbie so go easy. Personally I think that if a recruit is going to base his college desicion on one game than do we really want him? The college choice you make should be based on the school, your life plan and your desire to be there. Its like when David Nelson chose not to come to ND because he wanted Weis to pay him a person visit. But what do I know, Weis was only preparing for the Super Bowl. Mommas boys want personal unwarded qt, men make sound life decisions. Recruits that Weis and company need will find a way to make it work.

Im a newbie so go easy.

mroct23, while we all spend a lot of time here, this isn't prison. Opinions are welcome.

To address your point, I agree with you. I can see how it may be disappointing to a recruit because this is why you play. Think USC v. Notre Dame last year. I can imagine this decision is incredibly frustrating at both ends. I think it also speaks to the class the Notre Dame institution has. We respect our opponents and they respect us. Everything is left on the field.

Welcome mroct23 newbie be danged. glad to hear from you. No.. that's correct it should all be a life choice.

Welcome to the DD mroct23.

I agree with you 100%. Kids should really take the whole picture in to account when making this HUGE choice, and I think "most" of them are....but there are the ones that make their decision based on "other" factors. I can see letting one game be your deciding factor if you really are torn between 2 schools, but it shouldn't be the only factor.

There will be burning cars this weekend in Columbus. Best the kiddies don't see that in person.

Thanks for the welcome guys. :D
