So, um, not to reroute this little detour, but why no commitment yesterday?

Probably because we listened to rumors. I know I did, and it bit me in the ass.

Yea, it looks like anyone who thought they knew anything was wrong yesterday, myself included. I'll keep a little more tight lipped until I have something substantiative.

And the indications are that he'll pick between ND and OSU. Obviously, this refutes the UM rumor that swirled about.

i just saw on rivals that mccarthy asked gary houstoura(spelling) to be at his announcment and he is a moderator for the osu board.this does not sound good.maybe it's a joke?

What's with the collective "tOSU in the lead" opinion all of a sudden? Did I miss something or is it just a group hunch? Everything I've seen lately has Bucknuts making a sudden push, but I haven't seen a reason yet, other than speculation.

I agree. His last visit was of ND, which you'd have to think is a good sign. The only reason for the "Bucknuts" push I can think of is a) Tressel showed up at a Cardinal Mooney camp, and b) One of the rumors had ND bumped, and down to UM/OSU. Especially since the latter has pretty much been disproved, I don't get it... who knows though.

If he turns his back to ND and all of the legacy that he has there and being Catholic for Tressel? Then he must dig sweatervests.....lol come on dude he wears A SWEATERVEST!! :laugh:

Thanks for the opinion. Really, Tom Beaver saying ND is out of the race should only help us. :bigsmile:

I hate to say this but Tressel has great ties with Cardinal Mooney High. Mooney plays it's home games at YSU. of course that is where coach Tressel donimated 1AA football through the 90's. I am also from Youngstown and played at YSU under him. He is a great figure and looked upon highly in that area. I am a huge fan of coach Tressel but my heart is BLUE AND GOLD and I only hope Danny Mac's is also.

By the way Bob stoops went to Mooney

My guess is that Kyle's attending of ND are every bit as big as Tressel's Mooney ties, although they will still probably factor into his decision. Informative first post, welcome aboard.

I'm gone for most of the weekend, so when I come back and check on things Monday I want to see some good news here :). Really though, I won't be here for the next two days, so wish me a good vacation.

When you say vacation, do you mean from IE, or an actual vacation away from a computer? Just curious, because it can be hard work keeping up with ND football.

Dan will make his decision over the weekend, and announce on Monday @ 5PM between tOSU and ND.

IMO, he's all ND.

Actually away from the computer. It's tough as hell, too, going over 3 hours with out ND football. To make things worse, willie joined when I was gone.

I've read a few of the Buckeye sites, and a lot of Buck fans seem to think he's Irish. I even stooped over at Stadium and Main on GBW, and Buckeye fans there seemed to think he's Irish.


Go Irish!!!

One guy knows someone in Youngstown OH, so I don't know how credible it is, but it's at least some kind of information. We'll see if it holds true come this afternoon.


Go Irish!
