Name, Image, & Likeness (NIL) at tOSU

Birm posted an article basically saying he thinks OSU may not be having the smoothest transition when it comes to NIL and recruiting, and that they may be falling behind in terms of compensating recruits after the new rule changes. Seems like he's frustrated that OSU refuses to pay the big time recruits big time money.

He posted a link to the article from buckeye huddle on his X account, but looks like he has since taken it down.

2025 scUM Shenanigans, Arguments - NCAA: no wins taken away, no postseason ban

Subpoena Time! And Ono too. Deposed under oath, and I guarantee you that Harbaugh will be a walking perjury machine.

As long as he keeps winning, Harbaugh will be fine. You can pretty much get away with anything in the NFL. Moore and Ono are finished though.

I agree that winning makes the NFL look the other way but the Simple One went to what, 3 straight NFC title games with the 49ers? They were helping him pack his bags to get rid of him.

It's hard to wrap your head around how abrasive a personality has to be to get fired while winning in an environment like the NFL.

Columbus Blue Jackets (Official Thread)

Blue Jackets Have A General Idea Of Their First Round Draft Position With Minnesota Being Eliminated​

With the Vegas Golden Knights eliminating the Minnesota Wild last night, Don Waddell will have two top-20 draft picks in the upcoming NHL Draft.

The Blue Jackets have their own pick, which will be 13. However, they have a tiny chance of moving up as far as #3 in the draft order, but that's highly unlikely.

The pick they got from the Wild in the David Jiříček trade a few months back is at 20. There is a chance that, should the St. Louis Blues beat the Winnipeg Jets and then win the second round to advance to the West Finals, the pick could move to 19.

The most likely scenario is that the CBJ will pick 13 and 20.

FWIW, here are 2 mock draft swith the Blue Jackets going for a goalie with the 20th pick....

2025 NHL Mock Draft​

13 Lynden Lakovic
F Moose Jaw WHL

20 Joshua Ravensbergen*
G Prince George WHL

2025 NHL Mock Draft: Pronman projects all 32 first-round picks before the lottery​

13. Columbus Blue Jackets: Jackson Smith, LHD, Tri-City (WHL)

Smith is a mobile, competitive defender with legit offense who projects to play a lot of minutes as a pro. Columbus adds a significant defense piece, which is ideal after David Jiricek didn’t work out.

20. Columbus Blue Jackets: Joshua Ravensbergen*, G, Prince George (WHL)

Ravensbergen was one of the top goalies in Canadian junior hockey this season. He’s big and athletic and tracks pucks well. Columbus, with no clear future No. 1 in the system, takes a swing on upside in net.

* APPARENTLY HE IS THE TOP RATED GOALIE:
No. 25: Joshua Ravensbergen, G, 6-foot-5, 190 pounds, Prince George Cougars (WHL)
NHL Projection: No. 1/1B NHL goalie.
Ravensbergen is an athletic goalie who is big in his net. He plays a butterfly style, has very good feet and tracks the play on time moving laterally. His length provides him an opportunity to make second saves that some smaller goalies aren’t capable of reaching. I appreciate how aggressive Ravensbergen is challenging shooters at the top of his crease, especially when he fights to find pucks directed on net through traffic. He’s the top-rated goaltender in the draft class.

They drafted Smith, but they passed on the top rated goalie for the goalie most places had as the #3 or #4 goalie at #20. Typical of this franchise.

Random pictures of the day

Just sayin': Yeah, I know. I take lousy pictures; however, I thought this one was unique. There is a little cemetary in Icy Strait, Alaska with about a dozen graves. They put coins on the graves/tombstones.

Google AI: The cemetery in Icy Strait, Alaska, that features coins on gravestones is likely the one neat Icy Strait Point and Hoonah, associated with the Hoonah Canning Company. The practice of leaving coins on graves is a common way to honor veterans, with different denominations representing various levels of connection or service. A travel blog notes that coins were scattered or stacked on the headstones at this cemetery. The blog also explains that a penny means a visit, a nickel means shared training, a dime means shared service, and a quarter means the visitor was present at the veteran's death.

Anyone ever hear of this practice before?

Captain Paul E. Dybdahl Sr. was born in Trondheim, Norway and according to his head stone, he died a “Pioneer Alaskan” at 87. He must have had a very interesting life.
