I'll be... unfiltered.

I don't give a fuck about the cheating. At the same time, anyone on this board can spare us the sanctimonious "he who is without sin" nonsense and piss right off.

Being a cheater is low. Proud to say I may be abrasive, if not a bit of an asshole; but I'm neither dishonest nor a cheat.


That said, what bothers me the most about this situation is that these two were clearly caught. Instead of owning it and apologizing immediately, they lied, attempted to gaslight (I believe that's how this would be used) anyone with a pair of eyes and reason into believing what we saw wasn't reality.

THAT is an incredibly widespread problem in today's world. The inability to admit one's fault and own it without blaming others. Yet, somehow, it's a prevalent and effect tactic.

What is most tragic is that it makes any attempt at an apology hollow. It's coerced, rehearsed, and meaningless. You wished to carry on without consequence until the truth was so undeniable that generations yet born could even see it. To not pause at any point, self-reflect and admit wrong, all while accusing others of wrong doing, is near sociopathic.

Like I said, 75% of people are full of shit. All it takes is the correct topic to bring the stink out.

dammit. i forgot about him, and so did the website I was looking at for draftable QBs

Givens is about the best we could have realistically hoped for that backup PG type role. Hopefully he can get that runover rate down but other than that he's definitely an upgrade over Cupps.

- Film? Same issues that Dawand had/has
- Metrics? Same issues that Dawand & Jordan Mailata have.
- History? Bama tackles under Saban are huge and do not translate to the NFL. Especially in pass pro. Lots of conversions to OG, most not even successful.

He's in the danger zone of Height/Weight combo. Of the top 25 OTs in the NFL, only 6 exceed the green zone. Of those 6, only 1 is both height/weight redzone - Mailata, and he was a 7th round pick. Proctor also had significant issues with weight early in the 2025 season that bogged him down. Those issues only serve to play hell on the body. So injuries that may not have been an issue, tend to reveal themselves at the NFL. (Again, reference Dawand with similar issues)

By the numbers, he is a historic risk.

Ohio State had long been searching for a ball-handling maestro to support the backcourt. Givens is the answer, as he enjoyed a 51.1% assist rate as a sophomore at Memphis.

He should give the Buckeyes a boost offensively overall. His 55.1% true shooting percentage was well above average last year, and he also scored 14.7 points/40.

Givens struggled with turnovers last season, turning in a near 16% turnover rate. In addition, his 6.5% defensive rebounding rate would’ve been last on the team for Jake Diebler’s Buckeyes last season, outside of Puff Johnson.

Lots more Vrabel shit hitting the fan in the twittersphere. Affair began in 2018, caught kissing in a bar in 2020, Russini has a kid in 2021 and names him Michael. Paternity test on the Maury Povich show incoming...

ahem

This was going on for two years!?!? And it took someone from outside the school to drop a dime on the dude?!?!?! WTF!!!!

The OT class isn't great.

- Proctor is a no go.
- Fano is wildly overrated
- Lomu is a great athlete but needs a full season of development
- Mauigoa's struggles against NoD alone concern me.

Maybe Carnell & Blake Miller?

I'm pretty disappointed with the overall shape of this class. Very weak in some areas.
