Message: <blockquote data-quote="My T Sharp" data-source="post: 85798" data-attributes="member: 1605">[USER=6]@Tom Orr[/USER] [USER=1]@Marc Givler[/USER] How is NIL changing the strategy in recruiting, at least for recruiting RBs, so that Ohio State offers in-state kids earlier? Are they concerned that the in-state kids will get NIL deals from other schools and commit before Ohio State has a chance? Or does Ohio State have less confidence in out of state kids due to NIL, which causes them to offer their plan B in-state kids earlier? Or is it something else I am missing?I did not consider NIL. I figured Ohio State swung and missed on so many top out of state RBs recently that they simply want to make sure they secure RBs in each class.<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">2023: They missed out on Fletcher, Young, and Haynes this past season, and were too late to get Wilcox or other plan B RBs.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">2022: I am not sure which RBs were the main targets before landing Hayden, but I think Hayden was a main target all along.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">2021: They landed their targets in Henderson and Pryor.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">2020: They missed on Bijan & Kendall Milton, and were able to flip their plan B in Miyan Williams.</li> </ul>Missed 3 out of 4 years has created the gap in the RB, which will produce a major lack of depth in '24. It seems like they are implementing this strategy to avoid this situation in the future. But maybe there is more too it, i.e. NIL?</blockquote>
