No Mitchell, no chance. Good TO Kenny (for once), not get him back in

That’s stupid as hell. If anyone’s leash is getting shortened I’d have to think it’s Bowen’s since his unit is singularly the primary cause of losing our two biggest games.

Maybe I’m dumb for thinking that though so who knows

Bingo. Overall the OL play and recruiting has marginally improved imo...but those games demonstrate we haven't hit on a really elite OL unit in a bit. I get that the two games were against elite defensive fronts, but we need elite OL play and that's the standard.

Can we stop the count for this week right now? I’m going to pull a Lee Corso and take a picture of the scoreboard while I’m ahead.

Sounds like a stud get. That's for next year though (?). Anyway, sounds like the Buckeyes are peaking at proper time. Bottom part of roster is winning, hopefully enough to pick up if top few stumble a bit. Kinda think that the doubles point (usually a given W), is up in the air at times. Not entirely certain, as our top singles guys man the doubles teams....All I really know is what I read here, so if I've not connected the dots correctly, would hope that someone would put things in proper perspective. All in all, envision a top four placement, and with a little luck on the spin, maybe bring home the trophy this year. Seems the only thing not on Ty's resume....

Re: Bottom part of roster is winning, hopefully enough to pick up if top few stumble a bit.

Check out the stats for the players so far this year.....


Nikita Filin has really been kicking ass in the #4, #5, and #6 spot as well as on the #1 doubles team! The weak link on the team may be no true dominate #1 guy like some of the players that they have had in the past like Chase Buchanan, Mikael Torpegaard, Blaze Rola, and J.J. Wolfe, etc. to name a few.

It seems like the pitching has recently taken a major leap forward.

Brian Kelly Couldn't Win a Title at LSU—Why He Thinks Lane Kiffin Will​

The ex-Tigers coach assessed his successor in a Wednesday interview.

On Wednesday, Kelly—currently unemployed—sat down virtually with John Brice and Blake Toppmeyer of USA Today. During that conversation, he offered interesting thoughts on his LSU successor—well-traveled former Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin.

Kelly thinks Kiffin can do what he could not—lead LSU to a national championship​

“I think so,” Kelly said when asked whether Kiffin will win a national championship with the Tigers. “Here’s why I’d say yes. I think that they have invested in NIL for him. I think they have given him the opportunity.”

Kiffin has already started to do damage on that front, nailing down (per 247Sports’s rankings) the highest-rated transfer portal class in the nation. Though it’s early, he’s making strides in 2027 recruiting as well, convincing five-star tight end Ahmad Hudson of Ruston, La., to stay in his home state on Sunday.

“There’s a lot of good things moving in that direction. The recruiting classes, they’re really in solid shape,” Kelly said. “Lane’s a really smart football coach. I think it’s in a really good place, and I believe that because there’s been an investment in that NIL, he’s going to be able to be Lane Kiffin.... he’s not going to take the 18-year-old kid and develop him all the way through the ranks, and that’s fine.”

Re: Kelly said. “Lane’s a really smart football coach....he’s not going to take the 18-year-old kid and develop him all the way through the ranks, and that’s fine.”

Just sayin': OK, why didn't Kelly just try to do what Kiffin is doing?. Apparently Kelly is conceding that Kiffin is just a smarter football coach ....

We played smear the queer too but I remember it more like someone had a ball and everyone chased him, knocked him down, dog piled and whoever got the ball was the queer it repeated over and over.

We played it in the 60s elementary school gym class by having two teams on opposite sides of the gym and trying to nail members of the other team. We used all different sized balls. The bigger softer ones were kinda pointless but God help you if you got blasted in the face by one of the small, harder ones with the dimples it it. Those bastards hurt!

Good times. good times.

Missouri Star Ahmad Hardy Shot and Wounded at Concert in Mississippi​

The running back was an All-American for the Tigers last season.

Missouri running back Ahmad Hardy was shot and wounded early Sunday morning while attending a concert in his native Mississippi, the Tigers said in a statement.

“Ahmad Hardy was the victim of a shooting at a concert in Mississippi early Sunday morning and sustained a gunshot wound,” Missouri said. “Ahmad underwent surgery Sunday and is in stable condition.”

Per the Tigers, a timetable for a return to play—or any football activities—is unknown. ESPN’s Pete Thamel did report that “there’s optimism” that Hardy will eventually return to play.

“Ahmad is deeply loved by his teammates, coaches, friends, family and fans,” the school said. “We will continue to stand beside him and his family through this difficult time, offering our love, prayers, strength and support.”

He originally signed with Louisiana-Monroe, running for 1,351 yards and 14 touchdowns to lead the Sun Belt in 2024. After that season, he transferred to play for Missouri, where he quickly established himself as one of the SEC’s best running backs.

HEARTBREAKING: The worst people you know just did something really smart.

I hate giving Michigan credit. It physically pains me. But the Wolverines made an incredible investment in OpenAI, putting $20 million into one of the AI lab’s earliest fundraising rounds, according to exhibits from the Elon Musk–Sam Altman litigation.

That investment could end up making Michigan an absurd amount of money.

The documents don’t fully explain the terms of the stake, but Michigan reportedly set a “target redemption amount” of $2 billion. It’s also unclear how the school would use that kind of windfall, but if Dusty May and Kyle Whittingham ever get access to some of that cash, Ross Bjork better start investing in whatever comes after AI.

Just sayin': Ain't that "the shits"?

This kid and Whyce (along with others of course) would just be mayhem up front.

ugh, same - Dunker is the best pick just for his hair, overall draft was a dud IMO

Kentucky adds Washington transfer C Franck Kepnang, who will be in his 7th year in college. And the media acted like 4-year player Aaron Craft had been around forever ...

Believe it's been said that one has to get on the court to impress. And the decision is to sit on the pine at a great school, or play more minutes at a lesser school. It's a decision I never had to make ;(....academic rigor at Kent St poses less of a hurdle, and on court competition probably less as well. But is it better to be a big frog in a small pond, or a small frog in the big pond? I'll let you decide, grasshopper.....

This kid was never an Ohio State caliber kid IMO. I coach HS basketball we played them. He was not impressive at all. Was surprised that he even held an offer, let alone be committed at the time. I get wanting to keep kids home, but some of the In-state talent Diebs has gone after is very questionable.

This kid is going to be a consensus 5* and an absolute monster DT for us. Still has plenty more potential to squeeze out and intangibles off the charts. Yikes he's going to be a force.

calibuck said:

Nobody can complain that the OL coach isn't going after size, or number of commitments. Would agree that giving mega-millions to an untested LOT out of HS is foolishness.

Click to expand...

Yeah I'm perfectly good with Bowen's approach recruiting at OL. We're casting a wider net and not botching the national recruiting, but I do hope we start doing better at getting worthwhile OL portal targets. Really like this offer, hopefully the offer puts us in the thick of his recruitment.

calibuck said:

Was hoping that was the case. And it seems fair that if one keeps looking, the other might/should as well. Farther it goes, the higher the NIL might get? And since Edmunds committed way long ago, might have settled on a lower NIL number. Really cannot not speak as to how an early commitment might handle NIL. "If your ranking goes higher, we'll up your money?", or somesuch. But can see UCLA coming in over the top to get him, so will test his commitment even more, especially if tOSU goes with another higher ranked QB as a recruit. Too many variables for my poor mind....

I think OSU is one of the few schools that won't be held up because a recruit wants more money. I think Jeremiah was a 1 of 1 who could've done that, and even then they stopped at a certain amount, and told him take it or leave it essentially. Because its well known that Miami offered more than OSU. Edmunds is in no way at his level, and depending on how he does at the Elite 11, could see a slight drop. The 2027 QB class just isn't very good at the moment, and with the Portal, a team like OSU can find a starter every year they want similar to Miami or IU. So the leverage is no longer with the HS recruits.
