Lots of room to grow on this kid, and football is in his blood. Assuming he remains with the Buckeyes through the entirety of his college career, I think he will develop into a monster for us good guys.

Amen. That frame is just ideal for an athletic LT prospect and he's already got the nastiness. Fill out the frame and coach him up, and I think we'll be looking back on this one as a coup from PA.

Huge doubles point with Buckeyes getting wins at 3 and in a breaker at 1
Will need to find 3 more points in singles to advance to Athens

Really like this kid. No brainer imo, cut from the same cloth as Reese from a measurables and freak perspective. And a Glenville product to boot. I'm all for the offer.

I can get got this year. As evidence by the current 6th place in the standings and lackluster performance last week. So far, the team is the very definition of “mid”.

Prediction - I enter the weekend leading 7-4 and end the weekend losing 10-2....

Late "surprise" addition to the team, 7'1" C Vuk Lazarevic. He will be basically an ordinary freshman. My guess is he will be groomed to fill Ivan Njegovan's role in the future. Doubtful he will see meaningful PT this upcoming season, but with the new NCAA 5 for 5 rule, there will no longer be any point to sitting out completely.

Can't wait to see him in mop up duty November 13th on BTN ocho. Seems like a good pickup for the roster.

Is he still a thing?

I am going with in Ted Ginn we trust.

Illini are exceptionally strong throughout the lineup and even though bucks beat them twice, both were very close until the finish.
Anticipating the Advantage will rest with Whoever claims the critical doubles point.

@Nutriaitch we need an early Gameday Tigers football pre-season podcast. Baseball is killing me this year and I'm ready to hear you talk about football.

I’ve been fiending for a football fix so bad lately that I’ve been listening to Moscona

It was a first for me too. I'm just so hyped about the LK era.

Sheesh. Get a room, you two.

I know every program has their fair share of close calls and near misses, but fuck, don't think anyone beats OSU in that department.

I remember when I was in 5th or 6th grade, I read that OSU had finished #2 more than any program in history. That may have changed, seeing as that was 20+ years ago (that was depressing to write). Talk about bittersweet.

Still wouldn't trade OSUs resume for anyone else's, but you could write a book (and a LONG one at that) on all the coulda/woulda/shouldas. The margin between 2nd best program all time and by far the best, is just that razor thin.
