Santonio Holmes was from florida and so was one of their running backs from a couple of years ago.

James Laurinaitis is from Minnesota. It's not like that's a state devoid of talent. It may have fewer recruits than California or Florida, but it has produced some great players.

OSU has plenty of speed. Obviously more is better, but one game of laziness does not mean the team is slow. Remember against Miami five years ago. All the talk was how fast Miami was and how slow OSU was and OSU won. And also, just because he's from Minn. doesn't mean he's slow.

Remember the name Antonio Henton!! He will be the Ohio State QB sooner than later. Also do not forget that OSU leads for the #1 QB prospect in the country. Charlie come on now!

He must really like the Outback Bowl.

You are Ignorant! The Buckeyes have not been to the Outback Bowl (big ten #3) since 2001. Since then OSU has been to a BCS Bowl every year except 2005 when they burried Oklahoma State in the Alamo Bowl.

IF you are going to make a statement at least know what the heck you are talking about.

If knowing what you're talking about was a requirement for these boards, there wouldn't be many people posting

Where they need to recruit is down in Texas and Louisiana where football is religion down here. I went to a high school game last night and powerhouse Smithson Valley ranked Top 20 in the nation was playing some scrub team and there were over 20,000 people for it. Texas has the talent and the speed Ohio State needs.
