Meet the newest Ohio State Buckeye Adolphus Washington. Washington is a defensive end and the No. 21 ranked recruit overall. Yesterday he chose Ohio State over his other finalists which included Michigan State and Cincinnati. He talked to 247 Sports and this is what he had to say.
“When I was up there on my very first visit, there was a fan, and he
knew my name, and he called me out of all the recruits there to come to
Ohio State. I loved that.”
He then added that Ohio States academic support for their athletes is what put them over the top.
“It’s the education part,” Washington continued. “I know all these
schools athletically can offer me the same thing. The academic support
at Ohio State, there is no way you can fail. Even if you’re giving
minimal effort there is no way you can fail.”
Giving minimal effort without the chance of failing, sounds like my kind of college. Where can I sign?? Kinda looks to me like an NCAA investigation needs to take place. I mean this kid is picking Ohio State because he can't fail classes and has no chance to be benched because of grades? Did a coach tell him this on his recruitment trip? The world of college sports is a little to much to handle these days. Is there a program around that follows every guideline these days? Very doubtful.
