In a pleasant surprise, he'll also participate in the Columbus Elite 11. Though it's thought to be a two way race for his services between LSU (his presumed leader) and Texas A&M, many have felt that if Ohio State could just get him on campus, as they did with J.T. Barrett, Urban Meyer (and perhaps Kerry Coombs) may be able to win him over yet.
"Coach Herman came to my school and told my coach about the offer. They love my speed and playmaking ability. This is an offer that I have been dreaming about for a while. They told me I would fit into their offense like Coach Meyer used Percy Harvin at Florida; I'm real excited."
Never change, TTUN. Never change. (via) (H/T Ryan Hudson)

Simon, the Ravens' fourth round draft pick, will play linebacker at the next level (not unlike a current Ohio State defensive line coach). He's expected to compete for immediate playing time.

The Pacific Club IMPACT Foundation provides an IMPACT award to individuals who demonstrate excellence in the field of athletics. Manti Te'o and Luke Kuechly are the past two winners. Former Buckeye James Laurinaitis won the award in 2008.
Congratulations to senior center Corey Linsley, who was today named to the Rimington Trophy Watch List.

The award goes annually to the nation's outstanding collegiate offensive center
The 6'8" forward is a Toledo-native and signed with Ohio State on November 14th, 2012.
Ohio State has long been considered the favorites for McMillan but Alabama is making serious headway. OT Damian Prince, interested in Ohio State as well, also gained his fifth star.
"I found out about the offer when Coach Herman had told Coach Webb that they had an offer for me, I was really excited. If I had a chance to play with them I know that it would be a great opportunity because of how much history they have. And when I think of Ohio State, I think of a program that is most notorious for winning and winning with physicality. It fits my attitude and personality."
