Won't be pi$$ed if you pick the Hoosiers.....just feel bad about a kid who's gonna be on a team that gets their arse kicked every year....just sayin. Back to Top L.C.

Between the two, it may seem odd to say this, comparing a MAC team to a Big Ten team, but Ohio is clearly the stronger program at the moment, with a better chance for wins, bowls, ranking, etc. Conversely, the argument for Indiana is that he might play sooner there, because they obviously have some major needs. I think the winning argument in favor of Ohio is that Ohio has the better coaching. They have a history of taking players, and coaching them up, to be better players. Over the last 8 years, Ohio's recruiting classes have typically ranked about #80-100, and yet the team has been a consistent winner, and typically ended the year ranking about #70ish. Now we're seeing recruiting classes that are going to be in the #50-70 range, so I expect to see teams ending up ranked #30-50ish. That's about the preseason rank for Ohio next year. Phil Steele put Ohio at about #31, but most of the other rankings have placed them about #55. I hope Patrick chooses to be a Bobcat, but if not, I wish him success as a Hoosier.

Yeah....me to....my grandkids live in Indiana....I'd actually root for his success if I ever went to an Indiana game...buit since no one will I don't see that happening. Back to Top L.C.
