TN RB David Gabriel Georges (Tennessee Verbal)

Probably going to be a similar result as when Bijan went to 2 Texas for DGG at Tennessee

Texas was 13-12 in the 2 non-COVID seasons they had with Bijan. And Bijan was pretty good in both of those seasons.

Our overall RB situation though is currently better than it was back then I'd say.

I've never gotten the "generational" talk some seem to tag DGG with. He's not even the #1 RB in his own class, or a top 5 player overall. I think to even be considered "generational" it starts with you being the #1 overall player in your own HS class.
The transfer portal has completely changed this situation. We could land a RB almost as talented as him on paper with a year or two of big time college experience. It’s a slight setback but very slight if we don’t land him.

I do think the risk we run with breaking the bank for 1 guy is that others will expect something similar…..especially our current guys if they have a very productive year for the Buckeyes. I’d rather break the bank to land a couple missing pieces

BP Fantasy Baseball est. 2008 (Current Champion = Ahiacitian)

As self-prophesized, my team comes out of the AS break laying a gigantic egg against the 9th place team.

Shout out to Joe Ryan for giving up 5 home runs to the Guardians AAA offense.

Calm down Alice, you have two weeks to rack up numbers.

My shitbirds are 9th for a reason.

When you read these puff pieces in the sports media about how complicated or just mildly off things were but no one could have done any better-it's just UM holding up their part of the buyout through one of their media mouth pieces.

We definitely cheated.
Not everyone cheated.
When we learned about the cheating, we covered it up, but not every time.

I'm half expecting a corum llc admission next

Exactly how many arrests and suspensions over so many years within the department does it take for misconduct to be considered "widespread"?

TN RB David Gabriel Georges (Tennessee Verbal)

I agree 100% that not getting this guy won't make Tennessee a legit title contender and that OSU will be "fine" without him, but he absolutely could be the difference between winning or not winning a natty down the road for OSU. E.g., I know I'd have liked the odds of OSU not needing to sweat the kicking game against Georgia in the 2022 Peach Bowl if we'd been handing the ball to Bijan Robinson instead of Dallan Hayden. Just making a point: I still wouldn't overpay and once TN underperforms I wouldn't be surprised if we acquired him via the portal later anyway.

Technology Gone Wild: Rise of the Machines

It might actually work pretty well; except that, if the info. it's using is basically whatever addictive algortihm driven crap people are looking at, it won't. For generations in lots of cultures, parents who knew their kids well arranged marriages (outside of the purely political/monetary royalty/aristocracy arrangements) that worked out pretty well.

WR Julian Fleming (transfer to Penn St.)

According to a news release from Bradford County Criminal Court in northeastern Pennsylvania, Julian Fleming was convicted of driving under the influence and involuntary manslaughter, and sentenced to 9 to 23 months in jail, with 6 months of probation when he is released.

TN RB David Gabriel Georges (Tennessee Verbal)

I can see OSU stepping back and trying to flip Jayden Miles, and if that doesn't work, then reassessing the class at the end or towards the end of the HS season. OSU has 6 RBs on schollie, so RB isn't a NEED, but if/when he chooses Tenn on Wednesday, just expect a meltdown by a number of OSU fans, and Tenn fans wanting to rub it in our faces. But tbh, they are desperate. OSU in 2027 can still have a rotation of: Jackson, West, Bey/Rogers and be a top 5 RB room in the country. In 2028, OSU could have a rotation of: West, Bey, Rogers, Akih and be fine. And I'm not even including Lock finding a transfer in each of the following seasons.

I hope DGG chooses OSU, but in the end, the program will be fine with or without him. I can remember guys like Bijan Robinson, Richard Young, and CJ Baxter being big misses at RB in their time, yet OSU was fine. And they'll be fine in this case too
