I don't see much headroom here

Others have made these points but they need to be emphasized.
OSU didn't fire its coach bcz they had slipped. it's a perennial top 5-10 program. Meyer will keep it there but so what.
It's been decades since we got many players out of that state, certainly very few that OSU offered.
Same as it ever was.
It's very bad for UM and I do like that. They were hoping for a slide and that isn't going to happen now.
In fact it is possible that much like Oregon ignoring kids to get California kids, Meyer could bring a lot of Fla and southern kids in and free up some 4 star Ohio kids for us.
