On Saturday, Ohio State coach Ryan Day said he’s seen how Sayin boosts his teammates’ morale. Day said that’s one of the crucial roles a quarterback plays for his team, and Sayin has exceeded that expectation this preseason.

“He’s the leader, and he’s going to be the one that’s going to have to make the play when the money’s down in these big matchup games in the fourth quarter, and a big part of being a quarterback is those guys have to want to make the play or get that first down because of the quarterback, and he’s doing a really good job of that,” Day said.

“I think that they believe in him now, but we’ve still got a lot of work to do, but that’s what the preseason is all about is earning and trying to put him in situations as a coach to see where they can continue to learn and grow in those areas.”

“He’s just really fiery. He’s making unbelievable, jaw-dropping throws, where it’s just like, my God, this guy.”– Bennett Christian on Julian Sayin's improvement

I see Hoskins went on the IL but they called up Fry. That's like getting rid of Chlamydia and then immediately contracting Gonorrhea

Did Fry really hit 6 HRs in 8 games with the Clippers?

Same thing I said a few months ago. He's pretty much already what he’s going to become as a football player.

And then throw in his NIL request was going to be quite high

To make a long story short, it seems that the OSU coaches thought he was close to his ceiling with him being 19 already

Ted Ginn was held back in elementary school because he had a learning disability.

Brayton, while talented, is closer to Mike “The Abusement Park” Mitchell than he is to Ted Ginn.

Freak athletes at the HS level, but close to maxed out before the even hit campus.

Regular (85 octane here in CO) $4.09 and the premium I need $4.79 today at Costco ($4.55 with 5% cash back).

$4.13 in Quahog.

It’s like Shania Twain…why on earth would you listen to it? One watches it.

Just got back to Cali from driving vehicle to Ohio/Dublin. Didn't refuel until got out of California. But, the stations (Kingman) close to border take liberties of charging more, figuring schlubs like me will do exactly what I did. Cost dropped pretty hard from middle of AZ thru NM, going low $4.00 till Texas, where went to $3.65. Prices around big cities went up, $4+, but dropped when hit Indiana (more ethanol?). Maybe we start an offshoot of this thread about cleanliness of bathrooms?????

Well, when they report for work-outs, the # of *s simply aren't there anymore. It's recruit v recruit. Whoever has the talent, the heart, works the hardest, 'gets it' the fastest, will play. Has always been tOSU's mantra. The best player plays. He who makes the plays gets to play, or some iteration of that. Would think that a highly rated 5* coming in with a bit of a swagger (based on past laurels, rating or ? might find that the upper classmen might/would hit him a tad harder, etc. Storylines abound about the vaunted player coming in humbley, and working his fanny off to earn a spot. Does tOSU still assign 'big brothers' to take the recruits under their wing, to show them the ropes (and the things not to do?)

One of the most electric players I've ever watched. Loved watching Braxton play.

Is it just me or are the days actually getting longer the closer we get to the opener?
feels like at least 83 seconds in each minute to me

Ultimately his schtick is being a bro (from the snippets I have endured via my 21 year old son's interest in this slappy), and he's about to turn 40.

He's going to lose his 20 something target audience at some point.

Then again, my ability to make any kind of sense of modern pop culture/behavior is virtually nil so don't listen to me.

I may as well just go make a tractor rap album and get followers on social media.

Very respectable.

I have never watched one single episode of Family Guy

I didn’t know there was a Minnesota thread.
And fuck Taylor, Behagen and Winfield.

Will always be one of the biggest "what if's?" in QB history. If he doesn't tear his shoulder up, I think he could've had a similar trajectory as Lamar Jackson.....maybe even better.

The Defense: During the investigation, Michigan and its defenders argued that other programs also shared or gathered sign data improperly. However, governing bodies and the NCAA maintain that "everyone else does it" is not a valid defense against breaking explicit rules regarding advanced scouting networks

The irony of high powered, very expensive, lawyers trying the defense that our mothers slapped out of our heads when we were less than 10 years old will never cease to amaze me.

The Supreme Court of Mom Justice issued a ruling on this one long ago. They probably got it from the Old Testament. "...and the Lord said 'I giveth a fuck what everyone else is doing. Thou dwellest under mine roof, thou shall adhere to My rule and thou knewest the rules' then there was a sound of thunder, and there was darkness...."

That ruling was swift, unambiguous and some would say, severe. So much so in fact that, as an adult, if I even so much as think "everyone else does it" my body reflexively flinches and I duck my head. I can still hear her rebuttal and I can still feel that old familiar feeling of knowing I shouldn't have said something the second it left my mouth.
