I count seven defensive players in the portal that I would’ve expected to compete to start or see substantial playing time next season. That’s a number that makes me question what we saw and read all season. Why sit behind Downs, Iggy, McDonald, and Curry only to then leave when they do? Is the culture that we keep being fed not quite what we’re fed? Why would you leave the opportunity to be on a top ten defense playing for Matt Patricia about whom we heard nothing but effusive praise all season? The fact that we’ve been quiet in the portal (great LB pickup, notwithstanding) makes me wonder if this exodus caught us by surprise.

I think all of the classic blue blood programs are having a hard time adjusting. For decades they were so used to getting the best talent and hoarding it. And now the teams that were once "little brother " are now flexing their financial muscle from their alumni

Honestly, who cares about jbook's opinion? What is his credibility?

Sigh. Not what we needed with Downs no longer in center field. Not even sure what safeties we have at this point? Seems like he would've seen the field a lot or even start at the position. Then again, add him to the list I have said that about that have jumped in the portal...at the very least, our depth is getting decimated. Add on extra time expended in the portal to fill the spot and in trying to develop the player, and it's not ideal.

I can't stand him either, but I am still rooting for the Hoosiers all the way. Fuck Miami. I hope he hangs 70 on them, rips Cristobal's head off, and shits down his neck as an encore.

Yep. After that, this whole pact with Satan that Indiana is riding can all fall the fuck apart and the Big Ten can go back to using them as their toilet paper. Fuck Cignetti and fuck that snake-handling speaking in tongues QB.

Dismal year for Ohio State, but I fucking love the hockey.

I hope IU absolutely face fucks Miami. They did their duty in knocking the SEC out, but now it's time for them to be absolutely face fucked by Psycho Coach.

IS Mike Brown an advisor on spending money on talent? Just asking for a friend.

The very last thing that 99.99% of the fanbase should be doing is donating money to any collective for perfectly healthy 18-20 year old D1 athletes with the world in front of them.

They(OSU) need to do a better job of the marketing of this. People feel like their $10 doesn't matter.

Be clear on how much you need it, where we are at in the process and how it's being spent...just give clarity. You want the money, work for it. Engage the fanbase. Nobody donates anything into the abyss. I was only half kidding when I said they should make a crypto coin.

We could erase the federal deficit a few bucks at a time from each person in America too. What's the first thing you think of that? "They'll just waste it/my money doesn't matter" type of thing.
