Look Who's Transferring Now (The Portal)

I disagree but understand why people say that.

I don’t think we’re nearly athletic enough at the position personally. Pierce struggled a lot against Michigan and didn’t show a lot in coverage.

They(OSU) need to do a better job of the marketing of this. People feel like their $10 doesn't matter.

Be clear on how much you need it, where we are at in the process and how it's being spent...just give clarity. You want the money, work for it. Engage the fanbase. Nobody donates anything into the abyss. I was only half kidding when I said they should make a crypto coin.

We could erase the federal deficit a few bucks at a time from each person in America too. What's the first thing you think of that? "They'll just waste it/my money doesn't matter" type of thing.
It takes over 8300 donors @$10/month to generate $1 million. That is assuming no one skips a month or 3. A portion of that would be needed for maintenance (website, access to "inside information", marketing, etc.). Now you are looking at a minimum of 9000 donors and probably closer to 10,000 to generate $1 million annually. Phil Knight and Mark Cuban and their buddies consider that pocket change.

It is easier to find, cultivate, and retain 1 mega donor than several hundred thousand small donors. That is not to say you don't cultivate small donors, but the answer in the NIL climate is to find your mega donor who gives $5-$10 million, and have him challenge his buddies to pony up similar amounts. The peer pressure from the mega donor should generate what is needed. The key ingredient becomes the ego of the mega donor.

It is more complex than that in reality, but that is the short version.

Ohio State @ Washington, Sunday Jan. 11, 6pm EST, Peacock

This was one they needed to win. Now they have to pull a big upset somewhere

If they can beat UCLA at home on Saturday i'd call it a wash.

There is ZERO room to lose to a team like Minnesota, Penn State or Maryland though. 3 of the next 6 are against those teams.

2026 tOSU Offense Discussion

I had never heard of Devin McCain until 5 minutes ago but I'm going to go ahead and say great addition! :lol: We needed another WR pretty badly with Graham and Porter both leaving. I was nervous about having to have to count on Henry Jr possibly being a starter. McCuin's numbers are very solid
Miami's freshman WR had caught 89 passes *without a single drop* going into the game against the Buckeyes.
