OSU is still the team to beat as long as his brother is there.

Yep...hope Meyer does something to displease the Smith family.

With how he handled the Neal family, anything is possible this early in the game.

The brother is a redshirt freshman at OSU, right? What position does he play and who did new coach Meyer bring in in this recruiting class that could keep him off the field?

If the brother gets frustrated at his chances of playing at OSU, that could work in our favor, yes?

His brother is an RB.

His brother won't get much playing time. Jordan Hall will probably start then you have Carlos Hyde who's a monster. Didn't they pick up another big time RB this recruiting cycle too? He's going to have a hard time seeing the field. I really like that Carlos Hyde. That dude is impressive.

I had lunch with Carlos Hyde and some lady friends of mine from my high school who turned into jersey chasers. Within 30 minutes of meeting him he had already asked me to write his English essay final for him. He's quite the studious individual...

Brionte Dunn and Warren Ball. Dunn is more of a power back, I believe. Ranked numbers 10 and 15 at RB, respectively, per 247.

Overall #34 in initial Rivals 100

rtrn2glory · Feb 8, 2012

crowded backfield in cbus right now and i'm thinking in an urban offense you can play two comfortably with a slight possibility of a 3rd seeing a little time.

hope we land jaylon...HUGE need for us.

If it is crowded...Urban will find a way to "uncrowd" it if he wants him that bad....that's the Urban Way.

Five-star Smith talks early top 3

IrishLax · Feb 8, 2012

That article on 247 is hella encouraging. Also appears it was VERY good for us to land Kiel.

I like our chances against Purdue and Ohio State.

Lets hope it stays that way....the kid would be just as big as landing Lynch or Manti. That much of a stud on defense IMO.

I can see Purdue, but why would ANYONE like their chances against OSU at this point?

Irish Fam · Feb 8, 2012

good talk the other night on power hour about Kelly showing some of the 2013 guys love early in the process rather than just trying to be the closer. They specifically mentioned he was at 2 of Jaylon's basketball games.

With that kind of attention from the HC, I like our chances quite a bit.

I like that he is changing up the tactics a bit.

IrishFBfanatic · Feb 8, 2012

Purdue is probably only in the mix because of the connections to Purdue in Fort Wayne. Anthony Spencer, Bernard Pollard (who was also at AWP yesterday chatting with Jaylon and others), Rod Woodson. I'm sure he will hear a lot about Purdue, but it seems like the biggest competition is OSU right now.

FWIrish4 · Feb 8, 2012

Just picked up his 12th offer from Ole Miss per his twitter

rtrn2glory · Feb 8, 2012

how this guy only has twelve offers baffles me.

irishandy · Feb 8, 2012

I hope the staff keeps recruiting him hard, Ft. Wayne is 1 1/2 hrs away from South Bend. I bet Jaylon would like if he saw some of our coaches in the stands on Friday nights.

zbikowski88 · Feb 15, 2012

Offered by Bama today

GBdomer · Feb 17, 2012

Per Stevie Wif look for a junior day visit.

clashmore_mike · Feb 17, 2012

That's if he doesn't have a basketball game. offered by Southern Cal, Illinois, and I think Oklahoma today.

IrishFBfanatic · Feb 17, 2012

Don't know if this was mentioned, but Kelly was at the luers bball game the other night. Urban was at a game the other day as well. (Not the same game)

Because they know if there not from the Midwest or elite (ex. USC) they shouldn't bother offering

Dude, I would love to see that... I would watch the tension between the coaches more than I would the recruit!

ya, it seems the Big Ten has the midwest pretty much locked up. The elite schools will get one every now and then.
