	So most people will hate me for this thread, but it is Ohio State University as there is no state in America that is called Ohio State. Just called the guy did all his homework and decided he wanted to go to an imaginary school, either that or he wanted to mess with Michigan fans by getting their hopes up when he said the University part. He might be the most exciting prospect in the nation, but at least learn how to say the name of your school correctly.

	Pretty sure that was just to spike the adrenaline levels of both schools and their fans one last time.

	He's as dumb as a post. Maybe Clarett can tutor him.

	He went to the highest bidder. This is how college football / basketball works. Come on people, haven't you seen Blue Chips?

	Any OSU fan who whines about this deserves a smart smack in the face followed by a swift kick to the groin. You just landed the biggest recruit in the country, and in doing so denied him to your greatest enemy Michigan, who really needs a QB next year. Quit your bitching.

	Awesome post and great catch, me eye skimmed right over that. Surprising in his announcement he didn't say anything about the school's academic reputation!?!?!?!?

	If the guy really wanted to impress the fans he should have gone a la Monday Night Football and said "THEE" Ohio State University.. I get what you're saying, it's a little embarrassing that he doesn't know the school's name.

	He's a young kid and this was a huge day for him. He was excited and simply misspoke. Give the kid a break.

	He had weeks to practice one sentence. If this is how he responds to pressure, good luck at gametime.

	I know you inbreds probably don't understand the concept, but recruits tend to say "University of..." no matter what school they are committing too. It is an element of surprise, because if he said "THE..." people would know right away which school he was going to say... One of tOSU's other recruits did the same thing this year (it was either Lamaar Thomas or Etienne Sabino, I can't remember which one)... So chill out, and quit ragging on a 18 year old kid who you don't even know, he is actually a very bright individual... P.S. You're right, he can't handle pressure, that's probably why arguably his best game in each of the sports he plays (football and basketball) came in State Championship games, and he led his team to victory both times... Man, what a choker...
