Jordan Hicks will announce Friday

• darbypitcher22

  

  Hopefully he decides to be a Buckeye....
• detectivegibbles

  If OSU doesn't get him, oh well. Heacock and Fickell will just take one of their 3 star LB's and make them an AA...but I do think it would be sweet to see in 2 years a LB core of Dorian Bell, Jordan Hicks, and who ever is playing amazing.
• devil1197

  Well OSU has two top LB's riding the pine from the last two recruiting classes.
  
  Not sure if Hicks wants to play right away but he wouldn't see any time on the defensive side.

  He's a buckeye IMO. Mama Hicks would rather have him playing close, than over 1,000 miles away at either Florida or Texas. JMO.

  keeping my fingers crossed--GO BUCKS!!
• darbypitcher22

  

  The hour is approaching quickly... wonder if he'll wear anything in the suit color scheme to give it away....

  I lurked on the UF board and they haven't heard anything too concrete.

  Oh my god this is too much to handle, I'm gonna have a nervous breakdown!!! If he doesn't pick the Bucks I might just die!!!!

  You can't know this for sure. If a kid is special, he'll end up playing ahead of other highly touted recruits. None of us knows for certain whether those other recruits are going to pan out or not, or injuries occur -- which is why it would be great to build even more depth (on paper, anyway) at the position.

• buckeyes_woowee

  Is it going to be on ESPN?

  I would assume this is going on ESPNU.
  
  My college doesn't have that channel on their cable lineup, so fml.

• j_crazy
