Anybody know what he's referring to? I'm probably missing the obvious thinking it's actually something really good.

Obviously an offensive player verbal since all the offensive coaches retweeted. Still waiting on who it is.

Maybe Tim Albin was filled with the Holy Spirit last night at Midnight Mass and moved to commit the rest of his life to silent service in a trappist monastery

McDavis insists upon and gets Schaus to grant the entire football staff contract extensions which guarantee each coach their respective jobs through the 2025 season and each gets a base increase of $250k per assistant and FS gets his base salary increased to $1.5mm just to keep us ahead of Fleck/WMU and to help fuel the arms race inside the MAC. In a related note the Trustees decide to make a statement and tell the faculty to go stuff it by making the commitment to level Peden and build a new 50,000 seat state-of-the-art stadium in its place to be named Frank Solich Field at Don Peden Stadium sponsored by Eclipse Resources where we are drilling for you. The message to the rest of the MAC, go big or go home!

I am mildly surprised that there has been no announcement. Usually the recruit himself puts is a Facebook, Twitter or somewhere else.

Based on a post by the oline, it's an offensive playmaker. Given that Isphording was pleased, it might be a QB, but IDK whom. Maybe Morris? I can easily understand how a QB recruit could look at Ohio and think "this could be a really good team with me at QB".

If it's Morris, or some other QB, that opens a big competition for the QB spot next year, and much more depth than this year.

Either this, or they've hired Monroe as the OC.

I'm guessing it's a transfer, probably a grad transfer, probably from a P5 school, and probably a QB.

What top offensive recruit would come to Ohio with Albin still as the OC? The only possible answer would be a grad transfer that is interested in the Sports Administration program. That program is good enough to justify spending time on that side of the ball.

This must be pretty big news based on some of the other tweets I've seen. Wonder who it is?

Malik Zaire? I know that's a stretch but if it's really big news then it would have to be someone of that caliber.

Certainly possible since he's from Ohio. I would throw Michigan's Shane Morris in the mix too. But I'm really not a fan of a one year QB transfer if that is even the case here.

It without a doubt seems like an offensive player and I'm getting the clear impression that it's a skill player and not an OL. If also seems like it's going to be a transfer over a high school verbal to me.

Morris is a sports management major so that would make sense given our sports ad program.

It definitely is a skill player.

Brandon George or Malik Zaire would be great additions.

Of all the names mentioned.... Zaire might help convince a few more studs to come on board.

Are people seriously thinking Zaire to Ohio?!?! I hope this is a joke or folks are just kidding.

He's reportedly down to UNC, Wisky & Baylor.

Why on earth would you throw Ohio into that mix?

That like saying Brice Harper might sign with the Pirates.

It's insane.

Morris, maybe.

Get real. Ohio isn't on anyone like Zaire's radar.

I think that's why Zaire's name popped up...we don't normally get these kinds of tweets. If it is someone else it might be someone we haven't thought of yet. I doubt if Morris or George would
cause these kinds of tweets.

Dude, relax. Zaire was brought up only because the tweet (original post) makes one think the player is big time. I think most here are prepared for the fact it's not actually someone like Zaire.

I can speculate. Isphording recruits Cincinnati. So perhaps LaSalle WR/RB Christian Turner? Although usually LaSalle is pretty good about tweeting out commits.
