I hope these recruits aren't responding to Ohio State not drubbing every team they play right now, because if they are they clearly don't get Meyer's program. Well, they can go play for some team that doesn't win championships then. The Meyer dynasty has just begun. And they missed the train.
Hill has been gone for some time - he wanted to be a RB, OSU wanted him in the slot because he isn't big enough and they promised Kareem Walker he would be the only RB.
Then, Walker visits scUM over the weekend and wants to take other visits. He plans to visit Bama and a couple of other places. Staff not happy because they promised him if he stayed true they would not recruit another RB.
So, OSU invites Antonio Williams, recent Wisconsin 4* decommit, to visit this weekend. If offered, he will be a Buckeye. They might be using Williams to pressure Walker, or might be tired of his antics and will take Williams' commitment on the spot. Funny thing is, right now scUM has 4 RB's committed, Bama has a couple of studs. . .
Welcome to that world of dealing with testosterone poisoned pampered athletes.
I could agree with you, but I would be wrong too. How is that going to help anyone?
Based on what I have read and posted on here earlier, I am not convinced our staff is upset at Walker at all.
Walker has stated plainly and the staff promised him he would be the only RB in the class. How do you explain the Antonio Williams visit if everything is peachy?

Do we really know such a promise was even made? I hope we didn't make that promise. I don't care how good he is I don't want a kid whose ego is so fragile that he can't have any competition in the class.
The reality is, like with most recruiting issues we don't really know what is going on. We just have rumors upon rumors. I just choose to think that a kid even one who verbaled taking visits isn't the end of the world.

It used to be the norm back in the day. I think with all the exposure recruiting gets now, fans tend to flip out over something that happened ten years ago....they just did not know about it. Think about it, if you are 18, and a school in Florida or Cali wants to pay for you to come out for the weekend, would you go?
Bingo! If I was 18, I sure as heck would love to visit other schools on their dime. At that age I had rarely gotten out of Ohio. It would have been so cool to visit other colleges.

Williams could be a back fill for Hill.
Hill was not being recruited as a RB. He was initially an H/slot guy but when he came to FNL he tried to convince the to let him play DB. Ash watched him and said no thanks.
