It’s annoyed me over the years how many people get paid off for their bad behavior and/or incompetence and get crazy sweetheart deals. Being fortunate enough to have a defined benefit pension myself, I’m very curious as to what the lifetime expected value of the pension that Manuel is going to get due to their waiving of rules re: duration of employment (and chipping in of cash too) is. That seems like a potentially huge payoff to me (don’t know how old he’ll have to be to start collecting) but is being barely reported on as a throw-in benefit.
This.

Ohio State Women's Basketball (2023-24 B1G CHAMPS)

Making that elbow jumper also allows the cutter in behind her defender once they try to guard it. You could potentially say that this team goes as far as Elsa's improvement takes them. The twins are going to do what they do and do it well which is probably good enough to win 50% of the seasons games. It's Elsa and the other bigs that determine the other 50% imo.

Texas Longhorns (big hat, no cattle; please don’t Horns Down us)

Let the ass whoopins commence!

We'll be doing the Texas Two-Step following the second Saturday of the season. The longhorns wont want to see the Buckeyes cross the Red River again anytime soon. Lol

First one was the JackSaw scoop and score what will this one be? Jeremiah was a Heisman? 8D

Vanderbilt Commodores (official thread)

Ravens waive rookie Diego Pavia to make room for Ethan Pocic

Throughout the predraft process, there were questions about Pavia's age (24), lack of height (5-foot-10) and decision-making off the field. After finishing runner-up to Heisman winner Fernando Mendoza in December, Pavia posted a photo on Instagram with the caption "F- ALL THE VOTERS" along with a thumbs-down emoji on social media. He later apologized.

Just sayin': :sarcastic:...Class act...:sarcastic: Pavia probably should have finished 4th behind Love and Sayin. If anybody had a legitimate beef with the Heisman voting it would have been Mendoza (i.e. with the 273 voters that didn't vote him #1). His season rivaled that of Joe Burrow in 2019.

:lol:
Wait. So they dumped Pavia to make way for a <checks notes> CENTER? :slappy:

SF Jae'Sean Tate (2018 2nd team All B1G, Houston Rockets)

This is a GREAT success story, probably doesn't get enough ink. UDFA to seven years getting a paycheck! Remember he had some great success starting out, but kinda faded from there. But clearly had enough in the tank to hold onto his job. Am betting he gets the nod for one of the longest NBA lived players from tOSU. Go Bucks!

tOSU Recruiting Discussion

Haven't really figured out whether it's an element of developing early, playing in a lesser HS league, having better teammates, or simply being a superior athlete. And how to compare, say an OT from Florida, versus one from New Hampshire. Yet the talking heads do, and you gotta know that they haven't seen film, visited, etc both. Or maybe it's an 'got the world by the short hair' attitudes. Or do the 3*s simply outwork the 5*s. Certainly not smart enough to know. Someone with more technical savvy and time can probably cobble together tOSU's 3* history into who made first NFL round, versus how many 5* started and ended up in NFL first round.

2027 OH LB Brayton Feister (Verbal Offer)

Will be interesting who shows out in the short yardage situations. From what have seen/read, all of these guys can do the break aways, by making second level miss, but the guys that can get the one-two yards between the tackles have yet to surface (or so I believe). Also believe that will be the quickest way to the field. Anyway, call it rationalization, but believe tOSU will be just fine at RB this year. Will let next year alone until next year.

QB1 Julian Sayin (All B1G, B1G Frosh of Year, All American, National Frosh of Year, National Champion)

Both things can be true; guy is objectively talented; guy was insanely productive and efficient for a vast majority of the season; guy also struggled with disguised coverages and ferocious pass rush.

It’s okay to go into an off season with things to learn and improve. Hell, Day did too. Those losses fall on the staff just as much as him if not more.

Ultimately ha seems to have the intellectual capacity to learn the complex defenses and process. Arthur Smith will probably help a bit as it relates to more snap reads and identifying coverages.

Game Thread tOSU at Texas, Sat. Sept 12, 7:30 pm ET, ABC

He’s not wrong. I think their issue was they lost to Florida who was terrible.

The next 9-3 team to make it will be the first. It absolutely rewards teams who don’t lose games. If you’re scheduling teams like Texas that’s not particularly fair.

If we lose 3 games this year (let’s say it’s Indiana, USC and Texas) it’d be criminal to not be in the playoffs
