What a bitch.

Ruined his legacy in BR/Louisiana.

And when you think about how rife with corruption this place is, that’s quite the feat!

Really looking forward to seeing him in S&G.

If I was a WNBA player and someone threw a dildo on the court, I’d point to it and make the too small gesture:

Well, I'd take someone like Oscar, a long range sharpshooter from Brazil (?) He was knocking down everything he threw up. It's been a bit of time though folks. One of the Olympics I believe.

Oscar Schmidt, yep from Brazil. He actually played in 5 Olympics and still holds the career Olympics scoring record with 1,093 points In 38 games (28.8 avg).

He averaged 42.3 ppg at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul.

Friedl and Hayes get back-to-back hits, and you'd think that would be the entire statement. But it's not. Elly then hits... into a double play to end the inning.

Elly seems to be hitting the same wall that he did last season when he wouldn't take the day off. Hits are way down and the errors up the past several weeks. Can't remember the last time he got a hit from the left side of the plate.

I find it impossible to sit here and notice the imperfections of one of the two legit MLB position players on the roster.

Elly and Sal, whatever...they are ball players. No worries about either one.

The rest are in contention for Mr. Red

Thanks MPhillips. Read your quote, and came away a tad confused. The NCAA throws around 'all athletes' like dishwater, but only quotes football players. Then crabsteps to disallow seniors from the '5 to play 5' rule. Not lawyer enough to follow the twists, turns, and switchbacks to make sense. However, it 'seems' like the 'no senior' rule can/will be protested against, so maybe Jesse can get one more? Especially scratch my head ove players NOW in the NFL suing to rejoin their (or 'a') college team. Thought once you took the kings shilling, you belonged to the king? Or once you took a pro dollar (in that sport), you were banned from playing 'amateur' sports in that sport. Now with the murky waters of NIL, that might not be the case anymore. Are our colleges giving these NIL recipients a course in handling money? Remind them that they have to pay income taxes on their newly gained loot? Here's hoping that some of these non-football players get one more bite of the apple.

Kurt isn't wrong, route needs to be flatter.
Doesn't invalidate the INTs either or the lack of pushing the ball downfield after.

Dude's a beast, for sure. But your point about taking hits is valid.

Geesh totally forgot about this stud! Man we are LOADED.

I’m still a huge believer in TSC and think he will start next year. I’ve also been vocal in this thread that I really wanted Brady in this class and think he’s an elite passer. I couldn’t be happier with TSC, Edmunds and Vargas in the pipeline.

It's not a knock on TSC. It's a knock on my never-ending love of hating on moron "fans"....

That's a helluva opinion, especially from one of the northmen. I hate to say it, but I like butt. :)

Ohio State football leader’s comment on one Buckeye freshman is all you’ll need to hear to know how good he’ll be​

Ohio State Buckeyes CB Jermaine Mathews Jr.’s comment on an Ohio State freshman all but tells how good he’s going to be in Columbus.

Brock Boyd is making noise weeks ahead of the season​

Brian Hartline did Ohio State one last big favor before leaving, and that was bringing in the class of 2026 to Columbus, headlined by 5-star wide receiver Chris Henry Jr. Henry isn’t the only freshman catching attention during fall camp, though. Back in the spring, it was Brock Boyd, the former 3-star recruit from Texas, who was the most talked-about freshman because of how quickly he hit the ground running in Columbus, andit’s still the case

Senior cornerback Jermaine Mathews Jr. was asked about Boyd on Thursday, and he didn’t hold back.

“Brock is just, shi*, Brock is different,” Mathews stated on Thursday. “I don’t know, It’s something about Brock. He’s different, I love Brock.

When it comes to the freshman class as a whole, Mathews is very high on them.

“I really like all the receivers. The freshmen, they’re probably the best freshman players I’ve ever seen. Freshman, they are nice. Receivers are always going to be receivers here. I’ve done seen a lot of them coming through here. I think they just give us work every day. They’re just special,” Mathews added.

Brock Boyd’s role could be there Day 1​

Boyd is a 6-foot-1, 196-pound receiver who is going to play for the Buckeyes this year, likely out of the slot. Even if it starts as a depth role, he’s going to get on the field. He’s made that much clear already early in his Ohio State tenure. Despite not being a coveted recruit, Hartline pushed to flip him from his commitment to TCU, and we’re seeing why now.

Henry, Boyd, and fellow freshman Jerquaeden Guilford are all going to be a huge part of Ohio State’s receiver room going forward. If it’s not this year, then next year. Hartline went out with a strong final class in Columbus, and Boyd wasn’t a headliner name coming in. His teammates are speaking out about him now, though, and that’s worth paying attention to.

Former Ohio State OL George Fitzpatrick still dealing with a medical emergency​

According to Wildcats head coach Collin Klein, Fitzpatrick is still not medically cleared to play. Therefore, he will miss the entire 2026 season. In fact, in his announcement, it sounds like Fitzpatrick might not be able to continue playing football since he hasn't hit certain benchmarks.

"Because of the timing of his not clearing some of these benchmarks, for his best interest and his health, the doctors have recommended that he not play this season. Football is still not out of the question in his future by any stretch, but his long-term health and safety have always been at the forefront."

This guy has the ability to sure keep the locker room lose.....

Just start fast, get the starters out, and play depth for 2.5 quarters.

Hopefully it’s not like Akron from 2024 where we start slow and play with our food a bit.
