2027 tOSU Recruiting Discussion

Everyone is imperfect so Day is going to make mistakes and, to his credit, learn from them. True.

It’s also true that simple stuff like, special teams matter or Coombs calls the same defense in every play, shouldn’t be costing you seasons at this level of the sport.

I don’t want to see my $10MM man head coach, who I firmly believe is the greatest offensive coach we have seen at OSU since Paul Brown, having a V8 moment about stupid simple stuff.

Day perplexes me.
Exactly this. He's smarter offensively than anybody that has been in that locker room by a wide margin.....and yet the mistakes he needs to learn from could have been learned by asking the dumbest schmuck on bucknuts.

But, to be fair, I'm not chalking up losing to Miami as any kind of light bulb moment.....like what jwins is saying. So I'm really just taking him to task for playing scared, inexplicable Michigan game plan, and whatever the heck special teams have been.

2028 PA WR Jett Harrison is a Buckeye!!!

I mean, how fast can a guy named Jett be really?

WELCOME!
Depends how important the baseball and how big the dog is.

That said, very cool to see. This seems about as drama free as it will ever go for a top recruit. I’d imagine the Harrison’s would make sure it’s about development plain and simple.

Arizona State Sun Devils (official thread)

Not to argue with you, because I agree. But I'm pretty sure it has everything to do with potential lawsuits if/when someone gets hurt.

True story:
Before I got to college, in the fraternity house that I later joined, they used to go up on the roof and hang out and party. To a 50-year-old, it seems silly. But maybe it makes sense to a 20-year-old who has had more beers than he should. Anyway, one night, a guy who was not in the fraternity (he didn't even go to school there) - he was just a friend of one of them - he went to the deli down the street, used a fake ID to buy beer, went to the house, drank some beers, and decided to go on the roof. According to the investigation, the guys told him not to go up on the roof. I guess they didn't restrict his access well enough, because up he went. Some time later, he fell off. It's a 3-story house. He and his family sued the deli that sold him beer, the local fraternity chapter, the national fraternity headquarters, and probably some other parties. Maybe the school? I think the case finally settled after I got out of college.
Anyway, my point is that if the school doesn't expel him, maybe it looks like they're complicit in his actions, and if/when someone else gets hurt, the door is wide open for a lawsuit.

So that's my guess - take some kind of stance against this behavior or a lawsuit is going to hit you in the belly and steal your lunch money.

Similar to the targeting rule in college: penalize the hits to head and neck area, or it will look like you condone these hits. Penalize them now and you've got some ammo against any future lawsuits.
Tort reform, NOW!

2027 MS OL Caden Moss is a Buckeye!!!

I'm sure this will come off as homerism after he picked us, but I've been of the opinion Moss is a fringe 5* since I watched his film (camp and game). He'll need some work on weight distribution and technique, but really that's 95% of OL recruits coming out of HS (or more). Moss has all the tools to be an elite OT and at worst will be a 3 year starter type, perhaps inside at guard. Lots of work in the weight room and coaching, but 2-3 years out I can see revisiting Moss and seeing why he is in the 5 star discussion.

Regardless, I'm ecstatic to land him. Great prospect and a steal from the heart of the south.
