Not to SMU, but to Southern Miss.

What is the meaning of this?  Rivals shows White to Ohio with a verbal as of 1/31. Error? Or he changed his mind?

If so thats HUGE...I haven't seen anything else about it maybe an error? I hope he chose to be a star instead of a backup for couple years!

So it's true, he has flipped. It does make sense, given that he wanted the best school of Journalism.

Wow, one of the first times I can ever remember a recruit switching a commitment TO Ohio this late in the recruiting game, especially from a non Mac FBS school. It feels good to be on the other side for a change. Looks like a versatile player, so hopefully this is our Chris Garrett type of the future.

Hopefully Walker is our Chris Garrett type of the future, while Irons is our Kalvin McRea type, and Papi is our Dri Archer type.

And remember, Papi came to Ohio and Athens at the end of January, not exactly Ohio at its most picturesque.  Get these recruits to Athens in May, whew-game over!

I follow a lot of these kids on twitter and it seems like they all interact very well and they all tweeted to Papi welcoming him! Very excited about this class!

Recruiting with an IPF is fun.
I've seen crazier things happen.

Tim Albin may be up and down calling games but he has proven to be a top notch recruiter.

I've heard that OHIO may use him as an RB (USM had him as a WR).  If so, here's for Papi UTM being more successful than BUTM.
