Been to the Schott several times during the past several years. Both men's and women's basketball. I do have a bit of trouble with spending $5.2 million on a scoreboard, that to me, does all that it's supposed to do. OK, maybe it's not the shiniest apple in the B10 stable, but hey? Who gives a rip. Doubt seriously whether any recruit has stood on the floor, looks up, and say Not going here, the scoreboard is a mess.....maybe I'm wrong. PS, cannot some of these computer whiz bangs do some reprogramming to have it show whatever one believes is missing? I demand an audit of all Athletic Department budgets/funds/cash and contracts!

5.2 million in nil for basketball players might just make a difference though huh?

This season is cooked. The girls are having a great season as is wrestling. Baseball with a promising start as well. This is the apathy for men's hoops. I just can't give a shit anymore. Life is too short.

Well, certainly at this juncture the play-by-play meltdown some are having when the team is struggling is uncalled for, because we shouldn't have any expectations of success without Mobley. The roster wasn't great to start with, and without Mobley they clearly have an uphill battle to try and win against any opponent worth their salt. It's not 100% over, they could still have a glimmer of hope if the absence is a short one, but there's no need to hold your breath at this point.

It's pretty obvious what they SHOULD do, invest enough NIL resources to help Diebler field a deeper, more talented team. I'm not saying they need to provide top-10 national resources, but they should absolutely be doubling the amount they're spending on the team this season, as they are clearly underfunding the product on the court & it shows. They badly need a legit big man, and have been inadequate in the post ever since Kaleb Wesson left, but haven't even seemed to come remotely close - what does that tell you?

The problem is I don't think the University is going to pivot enough in-house NIL. And getting 3rd party donors to boost the hoops NIL pot enough is probably going to be difficult considering the current product doesn't really inspire a lot of confidence. Which yes is directly related to the University not wanting to put much into the program, but we are just stuck in that place at the moment.

I've never said to fire him after this year, that wouldn't make any sense at this point. You give him a 3rd year but I think that's enough if he doesn't show clear improvement.

You think he should stay another year, yet you bitch and moan every game when the team struggles, as if it makes a difference. Makes total sense.

If you could change the outcome of one Ohio State football game, which would you choose?

If we are talking about changing losses for the overall good of the program (not personal pain expungement) I submit one common opponent, two games. Sparty 2013 and 2015.

Likely lets Urban win 2 NC’s and play for 3.

Take the fuckery of 2011 out of it and he probably wins one in 2012 as well.

That stretch doesn’t seem to get talked about as much in historical context for some reason.

Agreed with everything except 2012. I’m confident that 2012 gets absolutely waxed by Alabama.

Hm.. so, am I right in reading that you think that 2007-2025 would be different if Ohio State were to magically win that game?

I think part of the reason is because the movement that started after that Florida game to shit on all things Ohio State/Non-SEC

I'm just the opposite. I don't believe anything, anymore. I mean, we were faking Joe Paterno pants-pooping videos 20 years ago. All the other video "proof" that exists now looks so real that none of it can possibly be real.
I mean... Indiana is winning national championships. Canadians are cheating at curling. Women are operating motor vehicles (sort of). I mean, show me some proof that we AREN'T living in the matrix.
And while you struggle to find a way to prove it, think on this: when your uncle says he has your nose, you might want to double-check, because there's a good chance that it's just his own thumb.
