[QUOTE="Krieg, post: 1741220, member: 5282"] [url="http://www.the-ozone.net/"]http://www.the-ozone.net/[/url] ...although I probably post more on Bucknuts or BuckeyePlanet these days. Absolutely no argument there. If an Ohio school could lock up the kids who are currently going out of state to Minnesota, Michigan State, Wisconsin, Northwestern etc they would definitely be a force to reckon with. The problem thus far is that a middle tier Big 10 program (Michigan State, Minnesota etc) is generally far more attractive than a school in the MAC or Conference USA. With the MAC beginning to find enjoy success against BCS conference schools on the field, and UC joining the Big East...that may change a bit. FWIW I think UC's biggest advantage right now is Mark Dantonio and the new coaching staff. There are a LOT of Ohio (and Ohio State) ties among the current UC coaches. Dantonio is from Zanesville and coache under Earle Bruce with the Buckeyes, he has also spent time at Ohio University, Akron, Youngstown State and served was Ohio State's defenisive co-ordinator the last three years. Coaches Don Treadwell, Pat Narduzzi, Harlon Bennet, Tim Hinton, Mark Staten, Mike Tressel (Jim Tressel's nephew) and Jeff Uhlenhake are all Buckeyes by birth and played or coached football at the collegiate level in Ohio. Ohio High School coaches like that...a lot. Rick Minter was a pretty good coach, but he wasn't a Buckeye and didn't have many Ohio ties on his coaching staff. That was one of the reasons they didn't recruit the state particularly well. Ohio High School coaches know and trust UC's new coaching staff. That will pay HUGE dividents in local recruiting down the road. [/QUOTE]
