Ohio State's 2019 recruiting class got some unexpected news on Sunday when four-star tailback Sampson James backed off of his pledge and sided with the Indiana Hoosiers. It was a strange situation for a number of reasons and the general thought had been that the Buckeyes were finished recruiting the position for the current cycle.
James was in town over the weekend for an unofficial visit and – to state the obvious – it's not often we see a player of his caliber go from a program like Ohio State to Indiana; especially not in the midst of a trip to Columbus.
