On February 5, 2013—the eve of national signing day—Ohio State coach Urban Meyer shared his thoughts on recruiting to a group of more than 1,500 people at the Columbus Chamber of Commerce annual meeting.
Meyer addressed a variety of topics, including prospects who pledge to a particular school early in the recruiting process, “When you hear ‘early commit’…in the real lingo that means you’re in the final three.”

Hurd, one of Ohio State’s top targets in the 2014 recruiting cycle, announced via Twitter on Thursday that he was verbally committing to Butch Jones and the Tennessee Volunteers.
