2025 scUM Shenanigans, Arguments, etc.

Connor's talent was breaking Day's pseudo illegal check-with-me playcalling. The coordinators can't tell on their own when a new play is called in and so Connor is simply a genius with being the first and only thinker to have a guy stand beside the coordinator to prevent changing a play call before the opponent does. All those jumbo laminated menus with the opponents' signals diagramed before kickoff was just, like, 5% of what he did and we don't really even need to discuss them so thank you, interviewer, for not asking.

Lack of support from the fanbase? Seriously? That sounds like some BS. If you're so thin-skinned you can't handle passionate fans and/or fans not complimenting you every time you bump into them, you need to grow up. Please let RJ Luis go somewhere else.
I’d be shocked if tOSU was on his visit list

2025 scUM Shenanigans, Arguments, etc.

Will they try to take the same "every school does it" approach with the Weiss stuff that they did with the Stallions stuff? Seems like it's coming

"Every program has coaches breaking into coeds accounts to steal their nudies. It's totally normal man."
Nah, the nudie stuff doesn't help win the football games, so they'll take the opportunity to pretend like they're bastions of virtue and talk about how they got rid of him as soon as they could.

2024-2025 College Basketball General Discussion

I want to point out something that OSU has seemed to ignore for several seasons. Look at Auburn's frontcourt. Broome is 6'11" 240#. Cardwell is 6'10" 255#. This is a big-boy frontcourt. YOU CANNOT TROT OUT 220# PLAYERS IN THE POST EVERY YEAR AND CLAIM YOU'RE A BIG-TIME COLLEGE BASKETBALL PROGRAM. You see why Vlad Goldin struggled against Auburn? He couldn't bully his way against Cardwell, he tried to bump him backwards to get to his spots, and Cardwell wouldn't budge. Goldin shot 60% from the field this season, but was only 2-9 against Auburn yesterday, because they had heavyweights who wouldn't back down & let him get what he wanted. This is why you can't have lightweights in the post.

Spring Games

Why NCAA Committee Denied Colorado, Syracuse's Request for Spring Game​

Here's the reasoning behind the FBS oversight panel's denial.

The NCAA's FBS oversight committee on Friday denied a waiver request, filed last week by Colorado and Syracuse's football programs, that proposed a joint 11-on-11 spring scrimmage game, according to Chris Vannini of The Athletic.

The waiver request also proposed contact and non-contact practice sessions between the Buffaloes and Orange in the 2025 spring practice period. In an explanation of its denial obtained by Vannini, the NCAA listed two main areas of concern with the request:

"The timing of the request, noting most institutions have already planned their spring practice periods and some are at the end of, or have completed, their spring practice period," the NCAA said.

"The competitive and recruiting advantage gained by the applicant institutions if a waiver was approved to allow these institutions to engage in activities no other institutions are permitted to do. And the potential academic impact associated with student athletes missing class time to participate in spring activities."

However, the committee agreed to further discussions, in a future meeting, that could ultimately lead to joint spring practices in the future. The idea of a joint spring practice and game isn't new, but it quickly picked up steam again after Sanders floated a pro-style alternative to the current format while speaking to reporters last week.

Swain is visiting Texas now on Monday so I think we are losing this one, he will be following his old coach.
I’m not saying he won’t end up in Texas, but this is now legitimate business. He’s going to try and get the most NIL money out of OSU even if that’s where he wants to be. Also, why would he pass up a recruiting trip to Austin?

Defensive end Jack Sawyer also offered optimism about Williams' status.
"He's in good spirits," Sawyer said. "He seems like he's going to be all right. He thinks the trainers don't think it's that serious. It kind of grabbed, not a full pull or anything, so I think he'll be fine."
