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

Pulling these numbers over from the offense thread. His play in the last 2 minutes of each first half has been nearly flawless.

Julian’s numbers the last 2 years have been amazing. He’s one of the most accurate QBs not only in OSU history, but all of college football. He should be garnering more heisman attention, but Smith has stolen the show and will continue to do so for the remainder of the year. Not Julian’s fault his WR1 is one of the best in the history of cfb, and unfairly he will always get the counter-argument of “what if he didn’t have Smith?”

Julian to CHJ, Brock, and McCuin next year will go crazy. I’m hoping if he returns it doesn’t deflect future QB recruits like Brady Edmunds in the age of ‘early start-or-transfer’.

Obviously, they need to work on the OL dealing with a loud stadium, but at least they learned that against Iowa. I like that they've got Sayin to take the first down with his feet rather than always looking to throw it. Any threat of QB run will do nothing but help everyone else in short yardage.

The false starts were disappointing since they didn’t have that problem at Texas and DKR was very loud for that game.

I say this as someone who does not manage people or salaries or anything fun like that:
I think a coach should play the players who are going to win them games. If that means you sit 12M, then you sit 12M in favor of another player.

But, what do I know?

WR Brandon Inniss, Captain (All B1G, National Champion)

isnt getting alot of run currently but I believe both his catches were on 3rd down and both resulted in 1st downs??

Inniss definitely has skill and is a hell of an athlete, He’s a reliable, team-first, mature kid. Unfortunately he’s been engulfed by the “OMG did you see that 1-handed catch?!!!” first-round drafts around him: Emeka, Carnell, Marv, Jeremiah.

He’s a solid receiver that would otherwise be WR1 at most other places and I believe it will show at the combine.

5.) He reads coverages like Helen Keller.

6.) His coaching staff has less organizational skills than a group of monkeys throwing shit at tourists.

Come on people, keep the chain going.

7) The only game film he watches is Remember the Titans.

8) To call an audible he’d have to deliver an almost complete sentence.

That’s the biggest difference between Portnoy and McAfee - Portnoy just screams and trolls, he has no charm. He’s way too combative for mainstream tv. Unable to provide legitimate analytics and respectful discord with athletes, coaches, and colleagues on counter arguments. He’s too arrogant for a couple-hour-long segment. Taking away my bias, he still has no redeeming qualities to draw in audiences, and it’s why he’s more successful on quick Twitter rants.

Yep all those qualities play well in twitterverse and not on Fox Sports. The reason Bar sports worked is that it was like a group of friends talking crap to each other.

How Fox thought that something like that would play on mainstream media is anybody's guess.

He obviously is not comfortable watering down his persona for national tv, and being that he is the poster child for the brand they had to use him.

Ironically when he talks business he is well spoken and thoughtful.

Barstool was Fox's response to Pat McAfee.

Barstool's trolling bro humor plays well in online communities, but not on mainstream tv.

McAfee is bro humor but built more for mainstream audiences.

I think it just didn't work for Fox.

Portnoy's only thing he seems to have is trolling Day and OSU, which probably pissed off OSU, and they flexed some muscle. Protecting one's image this day and age is huge.

It over all probably wasn't landing and it was a easy business decision for Fox.

Just my guess.

My only add to that is the idea that everyone/everything is placed in media now to piss you off or otherwise trigger you, So The thought could have been as simple as this for Fox:

OSU and tsun are our biggest brands
Portnoy is tsun personified so they will love him and everyone else will hate him. We don't really care because everyone will be engaged.


It's bringing the OSU/tsun rivalry to the off field stuff, like pro wrestling.
Storylines and such.

For the life of me - I don't understand why the young man is struggling as much as he is.

Is it:

1). Wildly overhyped coming out of HS. Another classic 5 star miss, like Dylan Riaola.

2). Thrown into the fire entirely too soon. The speed of CFB, the checkdowns and plays and pressure....he needed to sit for a year and learn and develop.

3). The coaches hired to develop him have no idea how to handle something like Underwood. Also note the following:

One visit to OSU (unofficial)
One visit to Bama (unofficial)
One visit to USC (unofficial)
No visits to Georgia
No visit to ND
No visit to Oregon
No visit to Texas


The best programs with the best coaches saw what they saw and didn't engage (or only minimally engaged).

All of the above.

A physical tool shed to use the baseball phrase. Zero QB skill (footwork, reading defenses) because he played low level HS football.

Now add in fucked up coaching for sure in year 1 and I am deducing a healthy dose of his own arrogance and stupidity and you have another 9, but he's fucked because Conner Stallions is gone and he can't just hand it off 30 times a game.

He needs to transfer to a place that can teach him how to play QB but I doubt his ego and the NIL deals will allow for that.
