Word is that Jadyn Davis (the #2 player in the country per the 247 Composite) - once considered likely to be Ohio State's QB in this class - is now looking elsewhere because he waited to long and the Buckeyes now likely getting Raiola.
Likely all part of a bigger plan to have Raiola commit to the Buckeyes so they turn away Davis, then he will flip to Nebraska in the final hour. This will leave them no time to sign a qb and will likely ensure dominance in his 3 years here.
It was always going to be a tough pull, but until we can prove our O-Line can protect quarterbacks, we're going to have to keep getting guys from the portal.
