I try not to wish any ill will about former recruits but this would be poetic justice after they way he handled his recruitment.
very rarely do guys become great players after they have had "rocky" recruitments.
Very few guys become great players, period. Very few guys have "rocky" recruitments. So that´s a pretty easy statement to make. Who else were we involved with the last few years who you would consider to have had a "rocky" recruitment?
There haven't been many with the circus like Keith Bryant. Others noted Anderson, but I think he was more a head case than a troll. I'll add Fred Rouse, Willie Williams, Aldarius Johnson and more recently Storm Johnson. And I am sure OSU wishes they didn't kiss Terrelle Pryor's a$$. On the other side, Antone Smith had a good career, Kayvon Webster and Sam Barrington played okay for Bulls but that's Big East. The only recruiting prima donna that truly lived up to his billing as far as I can tell is Bryce Brown, and he did nothing with two college teams, but somehow put it together in the pros.
