Indiana??? Good school and that might be his priority, because as a football powerhouse, they wouldn't even be that if they were playing in the MAC. UT coaches should stay after him. He is not playing hs football this season because of his age, so he may still change his mind before signing day.

RE: UT linebacker targeted recruit Chris Green Toledo CC....
Helluva player. Helluva kid. He actually hasn't 'officially' committed to Indiana. There was some confusion, apparently. I'm really hoping he stays in town and becomes a Rocket. I think he would have a great career playing in midnight blue and gold. His story is really quite interesting, if you haven't read it already. Such a shame the OHSAA made that brutal ruling that won't allow him to play his senior year because he's 36 days older than the cut-off and 'too good' to play based on all the accolades he's obtained at Central Catholic.

Aside from Indiana, he holds offers from 12 schools, including Toledo, Penn St., Georgia Tech, West Virginia, Kentucky, Syracuse, Boston College, Cincinnati, Western Michigan, and Bowling Green. His recruiting process greatly slowed down once the colleges found out about the ruling. Penn St. aka 'Linebacker U' was the predicted landing spot for Green before the ruling. Indiana, Illinois, and Toledo all kept in close contact with him. We still have a chance, here's hoping!

Here's the intriguing story I mentioned above about Green and his hardships. It's similar to 'The Blind Side' story:

He should stay in Toledo. Earn a spot on the wall of the Larimer!

Indiana--good grief. Whose brilliant idea was that?

He will certainly be appreciated a lot more in the Toledo program than at any other.

I actually wonder how many players Indiana has in the NFL compared to UT. My gut instinct is that we have more.

Maybe because they want to simply leave town and explore new surroundings? I don't know honestly, but who would want to go to a program that is year in and year out the doormat of the league? Same can be said with Illinois and Purdue. Those are teams Toledo can and has beaten on a regular basis. Chris Green could become the next Khalil Mack of the MAC if he becomes a Rocket.

UT has 15 at the moment. According to ESPN's database (which isn't always right), IU has 13.

Indiana is a head-scratcher, but Chris must have his reasons. Of this group, if he really wants to get out of town I'd pick Boston College or Georgia Tech

Boston-too cold. Great place to pick up drunk fur-clad socialites in hotel elevators.
Atlanta-great food!

Good recruiting class for Indiana and a program that is getting better. Very good offense, and guys like Chris could lead to a good defense.

Toledo is obviously the best choice for him. See how he's getting smarter already!

RE: UT linebacker targeted recruit Chris Green Toledo CC....
HELL YEA!!!! This may be one of, if not the biggest commitment Toledo has ever had. It's definitely my favorite commitment of all time. Before that brutal OHSAA ruling, he was ranked #91 OVERALL in the 2015 ESPN 300. His recruitment really died down once schools found out about the ruling, but I'm almost positive his offer list would have grown tremendously had he been able to play his senior season. Think about it, we essentially stole a recruit from Penn State. He was destined for 'Linebacker U' as nearly every recruiting analyst predicted him to end up there. But of course, with a new HC at Penn St. and the ruling, they did not keep in contact with Chris.

He was so much fun to watch at Central Catholic, you guys are going to love this kid. I wouldn't be surprised if he comes in and contributes right away as a true frosh. His initial plans are to graduate from CCHS early in December and then early-enroll to wherever he ended up (Toledo). So lets get this kid committed on paper.

What happened to the Indiana "commitment"? If he committed there, then here I'm skeptical about his understanding of the word "commitment". Sounds like he may be OK but as for the biggest commitment ever, you need look no further than your screen name, Induct. There will never be a bigger one.

Good point. I should say in my lifetime. That makes more sense.

But, Indiana didn't accept his commitment, for whatever reason.
