Has a recruit ever decided between Stanford and Ohio State? Stanford has offered recruits who have chosen Ohio State, but based on my observations, said recruits usually make early commitments, or drift away from Stanford as an option well before signing day.
There may be some rare exceptions, but as a rule guys who choose Ohio State aren't bothering with a Stanford application, AP classes, re-taking tests, etc.
Just yesterday you wrote, "Was really hoping Stanford would land Kane Patterson (Ohio State commit) and Sinclair, but just Sinclair is nothing to complain about."
I don't have any specific knowledge about Patterson, and Stanford may not have been an option for him, but presumably, he contradicts your assertion earlier in this thread that no recruits decide between Ohio State and Stanford.

What? What makes you think he chose between Stanford and Ohio State? I know 247 (yes, they can be wrong) had Patterson going to Alabama, with not a single Stanford prediction. My hope of getting a recruit, and his interest in Stanford are two separate things, but I feel pretty confident saying Stanford wasn't Patterson's second choice. I may be wrong, but that's what I believe based on what I can gather.
