Stillwagon was the last man in/commit in OSU's class. I think this was a case of ND getting out-recruited.

Here is an excerpt from his recruitment from Bob Hunter of the Columbus Dispatch:

"Stillwagon made a visit to Ohio State because there was no limit on visits — “I made like 40 visits” — and said when he got there, Hayes liked him because he was in military school, had a short haircut and said “yes, sir.”

Stillwagon liked Hayes because he immediately asked him what was the last novel he had read — “I had never read a (bleeping) novel in my life and I said Moby Dick because I had just seen the movie” — and Hayes spent the next 45 minutes lecturing on the subject. He also liked Hayes because he didn’t lie. “He said, ‘I will promise you two things: If you’re good enough, you’ll make it; and if you’re not, you won’t.’â€‰”

My dad coached Curl in high school

Apparently the man was crazy and a walking badass...and my dad doesn’t say that about many people

Hated rival?

Did Ara really hate Daugherty? I was not aware of that. Was there a reason for the rancor besides the quality of Duffy’s teams?
