Ohio State no longer fears Arizona

Rich Rodriguez and some of his UA coaches will take part in a satellite camp at Ohio State June 11-14. Can you imagine an ex-Michigan coach on Buckeyes turf? Clearly, the Buckeyes no longer fear RichRod, nor Arizona. Here’s what UA grad Ari Wasserman, the Ohio State beat writer for the Cleveland Plain Dealer, wrote: “Ohio State’s recruiting numbers in 2017 are clearly tight, and the prospects who will be taking the remaining spots in this year’s class are going to be the elite of the elite. Nothing against the programs attending Ohio State’s camp, but Arizona isn’t beating Ohio State out for those guys, so there’s no harm in having them around.” Times change.
