3) "No cop, no stop" seems to be the rule of the land in my neighborhood.
2) Yeah.. this one doesn't bother me. But I think this is legitimate.
1) I agree, but... so I drive a tiny car. I got it when I was driving to/from Philly every other week and got paid for miles. Made a lot of extra money. But, sitting in a parking spot surrounded by huge trucks, SUVs, whatever, I have to back out without seeing. Of course, I go slowly, looking as much as I can. But you get these assholes who don't give a fuck and go flying by behind me without giving anyone a chance. Sure, your point is valid and the other guy (you) has the right-of-way. But give me a break - it's not like I'm trying to cut you off and make it late for your daughters 2nd birthday party.

Some people back out like they're at a drag race and give you dirty looks when they have to slam on their brakes in order to avoid hitting you. A few years ago I was hit by an old couple backing out of my space because they had cut through the parking lot looking for a closer space, I was 3/4 the way out when they hit me.

25 degrees here today.

Celsius.

Even Fielding Yost is shaking his head on this one.

Why? Did the dude change his name to continue his career? Yost not only condoned, he encouraged that to make up his roster.

Just read the short recaps on twitter. Looks like we dominated the lower weights (thank you Nick and Jesse for bonus points) and lost some really close matches (including a couple in SV) before Nick (big Nick, not small Nick who got a major) gets a takedown in SV. Almost enough to make me wish I had signed up for B1G+.

I found this too:

BB73 probably got to see the 1936 game for just $4.40.....

My great-grandson had student tickets.

If we all put our money together, we can put a Buckeye Planet patch on a preferred walk this season. Lol

Not looking good

I think it’s the North vs North thing. ND isn’t as national as they think they are, and Ohio state has been there a lot recently. The southeast annd southwest US likely ignored the game.

IU brought a lot of viewers as a ‘cool story’ and Miami is a great team to hate. It was a great north south battle (most of the folks here in Florida were cheering for IU). Similar to Ohio State vs Oregon. East vs West. Blue blood vs likeable scrappy new team searching for their first title, but that time the villain won.

If it's me, I'm looking at those viewership numbers and also at my sister pro leagues NFL vs MLB and thinking
-this (and a lot of other data) validates the appetite for the sport of college football (not just the heavyweight brands). It is an important distinction.
-I see how the NFL monetizes "the shield" and promotes the entire league by one central promotion of the brand.
-I look at MLB and see the alternative approach and how a few mega brands are separating so far from minor brands that the league is in jeopardy of impaired revenue.

There needs to be a P4 League of some sort and soon. I think this is known and understood in the halls of CFP power and is the reason behind the pushback on the PE capital injection into the B1G sports entertainment entity. They pretty much said in comments that they didn't want to have media rights locked up long term right now ....I read that as wanting to have the optionality to take said rights to a new league.

Given the constraint (NIL isn't going away) I don't see too many other avenues than a P4 "super league" of some sort.

I liked the Patricia hire.

Not a fan of this….mostly because it means we’re leaning even more into a conservative offense, IMO.

I am of the opinion that Day molds his coaches in the image he has for his offense and defense. In no world would I imagine that Day would just hire a coordinator that wasn't willing to do things he wants to do, and the way he wants it done. Day is a control freak.

Day has the pass game pretty much at a premier level. There are two things that seem to elude him. 1. special teams and 2. run game.

From what is out there, Smith is good with the run game.

I wonder if this approach is actually going to start forcing kids to stay put. They have to understand if you’re not a star you need to either stay put or go somewhere small to play.

The big players are just going to poach what they need from the smaller schools like farm systems

Could Texas have a potential OL issue in 2026 too?

Texas, Alabama among teams with lingering roster question marks as 2026 transfer portal cycle winds down​

With transfer options dwindling, these teams face some question marks entering spring football​

Texas: Offensive line​

The offensive line was the weak spot of Texas' 2025 roster, forcing Steve Sarkisian to replace two mainstays from that unit. He landed a likely starter at tackle in Melvin Siani but could still benefit from adding a ready-made option on the interior.

Given the Longhorns' aggressive approach at other positions -- and their flawless execution in a highly successful cycle -- it was somewhat surprising that they were only involved with one highly regarded lineman. Perhaps Siani's arrival, combined with another year of development from Trevor Goosby, Brandon Baker and Connor Robertson, will be enough to spark improvement and fill the remaining gap on a championship-caliber roster.

They had Oline issues all this past year.

I laugh, but daughter lives in C'bus. She called, saying that Kroger's lines were loooong, and pretty much store was bare. Other than the fact she's like her mother, about 3-4 months of food in the pantry, she needed lettuce and a couple other expirables. Awaiting the 10-16 inch storm (?). Didn't realize that C'bus had 'stages' of safety, driving in snowy conditions, etc. Hopefully all residents don't have any emergencies, etc. Does anyone know if hospitals are staffed? Sounds like the powers that be don't want anybody on the streets. OK, back to tennis....

The hospitals have to be staffed; they operate 24/7 regardless of the weather conditions.

I guess I should look at more than just the "College Football" and "Professional Football" threads in the off-season. Just stumbled upon this.... 2 weeks ago there was work toward a plan... what's the plan? Do I need to start donating again?

Well, this a shocker….. said no one

Xichigan played a D that I am not familiar with. Thorton was guarded by a Xichigan blanket. It worked. And Xichigan could throw what, 3 7 footers at the basket? Don't care how tall you are, block those suckers out, and force them to go 'over the top' for a rebound (and back them up while they're in the air). Put back stuffs were pretty common, while tOSU guys stood around wondering why their 'man' was scoring. Our second tall guy is a very blunt instrument. Someone above called it correctly. Many tOSU players were passing up open shots, instead passing the ball to our scorers, who were guarded closer then have seen before. And yeah, one doesn't become "Ohio Player of Year" with rebounds, but by scoring, and Cupps and White got their awards by putting the ball in the hole....OK, write it off and move on....

Hey, maybe we can double up on the NIL front, by getting Diebs to kick in for a dual scholarship for the basketbucks? He's got a #4 written all over him. (might help his agility around the line as well).
