Hi Hunt,

I met same situation in my lab. The net type of your hub is point-to-multipoint and the spoke is non-broadcast (cause you didn't use network statement, point-to-multipoint subint's default ospf net type is non-broadcast). They can establish adj ("show ip ospf nei" is full), but actually no lsa exchange so there is no routes in routing table. I couldn't finf any explaination, so only thing I can do is set same network type between two ospf peers according Doyle I.
