Former Ohio State QB and current ESPN CFB personality, Kirk Herbstreit, wasn’t too pleased with recruits calling out JT Barrett after their loss to Oklahoma:
Can someone get a memo to ALL RECRUITS of EVERY SCHOOL to please keep quiet and worry about their own teams. Not a good look for these guys. https://t.co/5NLH5PXBHV

The original tweet from five star, Jackson Carman, calling for Dwayne Haskins over JT Barrett:

Carman, an Ohio native, made sure to let Herbstreit know that USC and Clemson are also in the running:
Pretty sure I wouldn't have any problems in Dabo Swinney's or Clay Helton's locker room for my OPINION on OSU's qb issues. 🤔 https://t.co/FMVwGpAJ2J

Ohio State 2018 pledge Jaiden Woodbey got the response from Martell and Herbstreit:
Bingo … Lions don't worry about the opinion of Sheep https://t.co/v8layNxSiW

There isn’t a high-level D1 coach in America that is going to happily listen to recruits telling him that they’re coaching wrong. Sorry.
