I looked up who OSU's special teams coach was this season because it's unbelievable we don't have one. Only saw Parker Fleming bio's and articles. Maybe you all know already, but he's going to UK with Will Stein for next season.

Kicking myself for not getting into football coaching, given the earning potential in the sport, regardless of the fact that I know nothing about playing the sport.

The kicker obviously won't be reliable, if there's no one there to show him the fine details, and whatever st coaches do.

I still can't believe Maguire finally hit a bomb of a punt that pinned the opponent deep and then...

Guess we’ll see as the playoffs unfold, but no one can convince me that our defense wasn’t the best in the nation. Should have beaten IU if our offense didn’t shoot itself in the foot over and over again. Same thing against Miami. True freshman QB and a struggling Oline will do that.

They kept an IU team in check that just demolished Alabama, so… we’ll see how Miami responds the rest of the way.

One thing I can say, and they can deny this all they want: they’ve had a bone to pick with Ohio State as a program for a LONG time. I’m sure our guys jawing before the game absolutely fueled that hatred even more. The other night they showed up in full force to quiet those demons a bit and try to earn back some pride.

Regardless, fuck ‘em. :lol:

I'd argue Bama is the team that clearly shouldn't have been there. Their last few weeks of the season were trash. They were not a good football team but got rewarded for being in the SEC championship despite being pasted.

Slow play when dealing with a bunch of 18 - 20 year-olds still makes sense. It's a fifteen game season and the NFL is only one game more.

Then be happy not maximizing your talent and ability to score points. Gotta pick one.
Or if it’s possible, pick and choose where you do so. Sure, starting the season that way makes sense. Does not make sense in high leverage do or die games vs equal teams like Indiana and Miami.

Nobody will ever convince me having 3 second half possessions in a playoff game where you’re losing the entire time is tenable.

2026 tOSU Offense Discussion

Captain Buckeye said:
not verbatim but Bill for sure does not think our current approach is good. Went as far to say he believes it’ll start costing us recruits. Doug I suppose didn’t outright go into it as much as Bill did.

We’ll have to agree to disagree on the speed of play. Slower speeds vs these elite teams also means they only have to be efficient a small number of times as well. IMO you want more opportunities for JJ Smith not less. Especially when the defense can handle the stress test.

I’m not talking break neck speed. Just dial it up more early in games. We play start to finish like we have a 3 TD lead. That’s not a good approach if you’re losing by 14.

Bill and Doug also mentioned we just lack explosiveness along with our slow pace. A ton of hitches etc for our play makers.

I think it’s somewhere in between. We can’t go hurry up that’s stupid but should we play this slow? No i think you just take it easy on teams if you do that.

Vary the speed. I think Day thought he. was helping Sayin by slowing it down. Again Wed . Sayin was running to the sideline…he’s should be able to know the call is based on time score down and distance.
