    You Bucknuts are a trip. Last year when it looked like Dunn may go Blue, most of you were not caring because "We have Derrick Green in 2013" friends with Curtis, much better prospect, Blah Blah Blah. But now the kid is scraps? SMH

    You do realize the scraps comments are jokes right? We'd love to have Green and we'd probably be making a much bigger push for him of Dunn had went elsewhere, but he didn't and we will have five scholarships RBs going into next year.

    You truly have no clue what your talking about. Meyer doesn't really think he is going to get Dawson. He offered for other reasons.

    What reasons? To "troll" Hoke? Yeah, not buying it. Urban clearly wants the kid, and clearly needs him looking at how bad his OL recruiting has been this year.

    Big RBs just don't have much success in his scheme. I just don't see him changing. His best RB products were Tim Tebow and Parcy Harvin, a QB and a WR. And it worked. I think the Miller kid you have at QB is a perfect fit for what he wants to do and will probably handle some of the "power" running.

    We simply have no idea on this. He never had a big back to use in his system. He always wanted one, but he never had one. Personally I think a big back is going to have a lot of fun running through those big holes left open by spreading the field.

    We are both atheists. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours

    You do realize you are trying to rationalize with a michigan fan right? There is NO WAY OSU told him they were no longer offering. They know Green doesn't want to be a Buckeye. loco

    Meyer utilized Brandon Warfield pretty well. He was 5'10 around 215. He also had success with John Gibson who was 5'10, 220.

    No not to troll. Just another way of getting closer with the program. It could help with landing future players from that high school. This is JMO I don't know Meyers true intent with the offer. But offering this late in the game makes no sense.

    Lol. Tell me how offering a kid who is 100% blue helps OSU get closer to Cass Tech.

    Again, like I said, the two best RBs he produced were Tebow and Harvin.

    I'm quite rational and no where in my comments did I allude to your theory that Green doesn't want to be a Buckeye

    I think that's a side effect of utilizing the talent you have.

    If the argument is that Meyer can't have success with a big back; that's simply inaccurate.

    UM used to do the same thing with Glenville. It helps show you aren't ignoring the school and even if you have zero expectation of getting said player, you can be like "well we tried!"

    I'm not really saying that, I am just saying that he is going to recruit speed at that position. Look, guys is one of the best recruiters in the biz and he was at Florida. If he wanted a stud, power RB to utilize he could have had his pick.

    Understood.

    Again, I think having Tebow made going out and getting a stud, power RB unecessary.

    I agree with the tact Urban is imploring with Cass Tech. I have no idea why Dantonio doesn't go in there and offer those kids. A lot of top talent there going to IOWA now, cuz they weren't offered by U of M. Its like Dantonio is too prideful and his disdain for Michigan is so great that he won't allow himself to offer them. Urban offered Dawson, knowing he wouldn't take it, but look at the buzz its created. Sparty will counter with Wilcher cockblocking MSU, but thats ridiculous.

    Dude starts first day of school and sees a pretty girl. He likes this pretty girl, a LOT.
    He makes eye contact with her from across the class room. He goes out of his way to walk past her lunch table. He slips her notes as he walks past her desk. "You look hot today. I really like you". They share a text book during Home Ec because he conveniently forgot his. They start walking to class together and eating at the same table. Things are going pretty well for our dude.

    But then one day, he sees the pretty girl talking to Johnny Utah. She's having a good laugh with Johnny and some of the other jocks. Word on the Playground is Johnny's gonna ask the pretty girl to the homecoming dance.

    Our dude sees the writing on the wall. He tells all his buddies that he doesn't like that tramp anymore and he's "moved on".

    The end.

    I believe urban also offered around the peak time of chatter that Dawson was going to camp at FL and he had a few things to say to M fans busting his chops on twitter. He threw him a "line" in hopes of things falling apart between him and M. Also, dantonio is making an effort to build a relationship with Cass techs coach, slowly but surely. He knows its our pipeline but is making a conscious effort to at least be in the picture.
