Perhaps, but there's said to be some family pressure previously to flip and that his Mom wouldn't co-sign his LOI with Ohio State (he's underage.)

What's true and what's not? I have no idea.

His 18th birthday was in 3 weeks. He could have held out unitl he was 18. He wasn't the only one OSU had flip today after the announcement. Besides "Pressuring" could be as simple as "The guy you really liked at OSU is gone and you're not guaranteed the guy that takes his place shares his vision."

Completely true. This might be nothing but tOSU trying to spin the flip that was caused by Hartline leaving, but it also might signal "Mama Drama 2.0" though it appears Mama is on our side this time.

Honestly, the kid looks amazing but if he wants to be at Ohio State I'd rather him flip in 3 weeks than half ass for a big NIL bag for a year then portal up there.

He reminds me of Randall Cobb but faster. If he has anything like Randall's smarts and work ethic, look out. I also think he could have a little Christian Mccaffrey to his game if he adds weight.

Thats really high praise. Cobb was the best returner in the NFL for a while, and CMC leads the NFL in yards from scrimmage...again...right now. I agree with you 100% though. He has the incredible speed and quickness of a Cobb or C.Patterson, but is durable and used to contact like CMC because he touches the ball every single snap as a QB and runs it a lot. As well as returning kicks.

Hope he can get his route running and techniques down quickly so we can use him in our passing game and not just as a returner. We are so loaded right now at WR though its ridiculous. Best WR room in the nation for 2026 hands down.

Very kind of Ohio State to let him temporarily commit there so the recruiting services would bump up his ratings.

He got a very generous bump as soon as he flipped his commitment to them. I think he jumped like a hundred points or something like that. I expect them to drop his ranking now that he flipped back to us.

Legend was a QB in high school. VOLS may use him as a RB? I'm sure that factored into his decision to flip? Having a RB that can throw would be good too.
