forgot about Deon Long also, speedy compliment to Diggs.

Yeah man! In an online dynasty I'm doing with my buddy, Ohio is killing it in recruiting. They are taking away prospects from the likes of Ohio State and Florida.

Agreed....and yes, I am a bit biased about my alma mater. But in all seriousness, Ohio is a very solid recruiting state and OU's roster is quite solid. Throw in a season-opener against a strong Louisville team, that if you can win, will buoy the team's stature right away. The MAC is also a much more competitive conference than most give it credit for with strong teams in Ohio, Toledo, Bowling Green, Kent State, and of course, Northern Illinois.

The only real downside is that the top weapons in Tettleton and Blankenship are both seniors, so they need to be replaced after one season.

All said, had they not faded last season after a strong start, they would have been in the same place Northern Illinois was.

There are some good suggestions in here. Ill say Rutgers (even though someone else already said them).

Ill throw out there any of the service academies, but specifically Navy. They have a solid overall team, with pipelines in Maryland and I think Florida.

Ole Miss? Tennessee?

As far as 1* "sleeper" programs go I have been lighting it up with Nick Montana at Tulane. Fun to build with them especially with Orleans Darkwa at RB and Ryan Grant at WR in year 1.
