Oh I'm with you, I understand my viewpoint is completely selfish, irrational, and based on unfounded fear of the future. Still my viewpoint though.

It was mine as well before last year.. smarter people than me said after the shadow payments were neutralized it’s not coming back. I only w concern myself with the Bucks a loss to Alabama Georgia or Indiana or Miami is still a loss.

We won a natty beat scUM. Did players leave because of playing time or development. I don’t think the staff was surprised by anyone that left even if fans and ‘insiders’ were. TOSU will field a competitive team next year. The handwringing after last year was overdone.,Pretty damn good reloading year.

competitive won’t cut it
we need to win the B1G

As disappointed as we are right now, if you had told me we would beat TSUN and lose in the second round of the CFP before the season, I would have taken it. Hopefully Matty P can do it again next year, but the offense should be light years better. Maybe, rather than playing slow to stay fresh, play fast and roll in more players to get a similar number of reps per player as playing slow.

I mean, as a fan of a blue blood, you're right, and you can count me into that group as well.

Fuck parity, I wanna see the historical giants go at it, and the fact that it benefitted my favorite team more than others is absolutely part of that. Nothing could possibly interest me in natty between ole miss and Indiana.

For the record, all the changes that allowed this parity shift were absolutely needed, and college football is better for it in principle.

Doesn't change the fact that I hate what it's done to OSUs position.

Was looking forward to Scott contributing on a high level next year. But such is life.

Love how we will get to hear for weeks about how overrated Ohio State was but you won't hear a peep of the same about Georgia who just got beat in their own backyard by a team that had a coach who was coaching his 2nd ever game as a head coach.

your point is loud and clear.
but that game was in New Orleans, so not really UGA's backyard.

I saw someone mention that Tulane was once an SEC team.

a really long damn time ago, yes.

My understanding is that Bengals management "generally" lets a coach play out their contract rather than firing them and paying the rest of their deal and the compensation for a new coach.

CFP playoff has a final four of Miami, Ole Miss, Oregon, and fucking world beating juggernaut Indiana. How is that stale?

Not gonna lie, whenever I hear fans espouse this, it's always fans of blue blood programs who are upset their programs can't stack talent anymore due to NIL and the portal. College football definitely has issues but this is the most parity the sport has seen in decades. Possibly ever. Certainly within my lifetime.

Won't be shocked if Stefanski goes on to be a good HC in a better organization. Either of the top QB's in this draft won't change the fact that the OL needs to be rebuilt and they don't have a #1 WR. I would fix that before I worry about a QB. That Watson trade ruined the franchise for a decade.

Good thing my favorite team doesn't need either of the top QBs in this draft with a need for rebuilding the OL and they don't have a #1 WR......

Some last ‘26 News: OSU’s Cincere Johnson finishes as the final #4 overall ranked player over the course of the UA week and game. Main recap:

The Cleveland Glenville product is a quick processor and plays with advanced instincts. The ability to diagnose and quickly trigger downhill was easily noticeable during live periods.

5* WR Commit Jamier Brown update to Simmons. Locked in, but will take a couple of OVs to make sure:

“Coach Hartline and I have a great relationship, so him leaving did impact me a little,” Brown told Rivals. “But Ohio State is still Ohio State. They produce receivers, I like Coach Day, and I know I’ll be in good hands.” “The culture at Ohio State is what keeps me committed and feeling good about it. It’s a brotherhood. They play for each other. It’s not about one single player. They’ve always made me feel at home.” “I’ve been there too many times to count. People know me there. I’m comfortable. It feels right every time I’m there.” “My focus right now is on 7-on-7 and training for a big senior season,” Brown said. “I might take three or four official visits, but it’s going to be hard for any school to change my mind. I’m in a great situation with Ohio State. I know where I want to go.”
