Well I’ve got more confidence after watching the past years Rose Bowl.

There were a ton of buckeyes on this team on last years team when we were going against a “juggernaut offensive” team it was taken personal.

With the focus I’m hearing from the guys I’m really thinking this might go sideways on UW quick.

What’s underrated about this game is our familiarity with elite competition. Our familiarity with big games, tough positions, tough matchups, tough environments.

I’ve been really excited to hear the team talk the way they have. They know how serious this QB challenge is.

What’s being lost is that they realize the challenge,

Well, it doesn't hurt to dream, for the first part of that statement.

I do agree with the 2nd part of that though. This isn't the place to learn how to be a head coach. But at this point, Diebler has the reigns so it is what it is.

Yeah and since it's an experiment, it'll get into year 3, minimum.

People need to be patient. Ohio State isn't a powerhouse in basketball. It takes time to rebuild it, even in this era. You have to convince kids this is the place to be. Stability goes a long way to doing that.

Of course that's not what w WANT to happen but it was a bit of an experiment so I expect a lot of pressure for a great season.

I mean if you REALLY want that graveyard of coaches moniker to stick in recruiting circles, I guess you could go this route.

Short of a complete failure of a season - like less than 10 wins or no Big Ten wins at all or something really really low - he'll be the coach in 2026/27.

Don't care about other B1G schools at all

Ok so one year hall pass
Play time is over coach. No tourney. No job.

Maybe not totally fair but it is what it is now.

Of course you’re right. I had meant Shcottzie II, referring to when she bought the replacement puppy just like our favorite Derpstreet. I realized the photo didn’t work, but it wasn’t worth trying to fix the joke.

I was about 200feet or so seat from that drinking a $7 water downed beer and threw it up in the air when he caught that shit!

Thanks to Judge for not ruining my sweet parlay I got cheap seats for a sinking ship today and only felt good about the last fucking play. Smdh.

GABP really is a good visit though. A lot of good shit outside the place and the Reds HOF is great. Too bad there aren't any new additions to that from this slack jawed collection of sissies.

They are going to open a new "hacking mass" wing to celebrate the suck.

McLain is already being measured for a statue. First ballot hacking mass HOFer

Too bad their Ohio brothers are a bunch of choking pussies
