LB Alex “Sonny” Styles, Block 'O' (National Champion)

DaddyBigBucks
A guy under 6’5” who can hit his elbow on the rim on a basketball court

A guy over 6’4” who can squat the equivalent of two Left Tackles.

They’re the same person

Dude is like one of those sports car hybrids with ridiculous low end torque (electric motor) and ludicrous top end torque (ICE)

The 40 inch vertical at that weight though is the kind of high rpm torque you see in an ICE-only V12 (think the Ferrari F140HC); while the almost power-lifter level squat is the low end torque of a Model S Plaid.


Edit: We could quibble over what “almost power-lifter level” means, but consider that Styles is about half a foot taller than the typical 110 kg power-lifter, which is a huge disadvantage. It is rare to see a lifter in that weight class over 6’1”, and those guys are often deadlift specialists

LB Coach James Laurinaitis (2x B1G DPOY, 2006 Nagurski, 2007 Butkus, 2008 Lott, 3x All-American, OSU HOF, National Champion)

During media days someone asked JJ about his Rushmore for his position and he mentioned Carter, so there’s that

It’s fine that the players are more focused on what they’ve seen in their own lifetime though. That means that some (or all) of the linebackers would probably have their coach on their own Buckeye Rushmore for the position they play. That has a value of its own

At 6-4 1/2, 243 pounds, he broad jumped 11-0, vertical jumped 40 inches and squatted 675 pounds. His body fat is 10 percent. If not for Jeremiah Smith, Styles would be the Buckeyes’ biggest Freak. (The truth is, it’s close between them.)

If anyone caught the video of Edrick Houston asking various players their OSU football Mt. Rushmore, not one player could name a player earlier than the mid 2000s(except for Dominic Kirks who named Cris Carter). I get that many of these guys are young, but come on now, OSU has had countless AAs and Heisman winners, on top of so many NFL stars over the last 40yrs. Though I'm 44 and I've been watching OSU football since 1993, I'd still have Archie in my Mt. Rushmore(along with Eddie, Mike Doss and Orlando Pace). I think it becomes that much more important to teach the young guys about so many of the past OSU greats, because as great as Chase was, guys Like Cam Heyward, Vernon Gholston, Will Smith, Vrabel and Finkes. Zeke was amazing, but so was Carlos Snow, Mo Clarett, Pete Johnson, of course Keith Byars, etc.

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

Oh8ch
No idea how the detailed process actually works. But I would think the NCAA would want this out there now both in fairness to players and to increase the distance from the start of the season. Who wants to listen to this during every pregame and halftime broadcast?

On the other hand - I don't want anything overturned down the road. So bring on the lawyers and check every comma.

Literally no one is going to voluntarily speed up the process of being sent to federal pound me in the ass prison.

When you sober up from whatever horrific shit you did, you still are going to try and avoid death by sodomy.

Do you guys think prison is more violent nightmare or more just boredom sitting alone with your thoughts and regrets?
