Congrats on getting Hicks. If he wasn't coming to tOSU then I'm glad he chose Texas. I think you're getting a good one and that Texas will be good for him as a football player as a person.
Amazing class. I cannot remember a recruiting season this exciting in a long time. Mack, with all the early committments he gets, has almost removed the suspense form all of this. Not today at least.
I guess the whole "Mack can't close late on big time recruits" knock can be put to bed along with all the rest of the ******** the haters like to repeat to make themselves feel better. Wooohooooo!
Always hate to lose a top in-state player, but we all knew he was a Texas fan from the beginning. I'd much rather lose out to a classy coach and program than to the drama queen down in Florida.
Luckily for us LB is not a position of need this year (OSU is pretty stacked at LB right now) which minimizes the feeling of losing such a great player from our own back yard.
Good luck next year... Colt's injury was a disappointment to all college football fans outside Alabama. Made the game feel so anticlimatic it just didn't feel right.
