DC Matt Patricia (Official Thread)

Agree with the adjustments part and I’ll throw in that even more important was his willingness to embrace and assimilate into the Buckeye culture. A famous Ohio State coach once said “You win with people.” Patricia has done a superior job of building relationships with players and staff. Seems like the players love him and the defensive staff enjoys working with him. Xs and Os are important, but you win with people.
He tried being Bill and failed. Now he’s Coach Matt and he loves being here his family loves it and he is comfortable with it.

Difference between him and Knowles is adjustments. Knowles would come in with a good game plan and shut down a lot of teams but as the game went on there felt like things started to work more against him. Pattricia comes out after half and shuts down what the hell you thought you found.

Bryce "L" Underwood (QB ttun, for now)

The narrative is that he went to TTUN to be developed? You've got to be kidding me.

All one would have had to do is look at J.J. McCarthy, the pride of the "Michigan QB Development Program" and the success that he has achieved in the NFL to know that was a really bad idea.

He should transfer to some school that has a clue. Sherrone isn't gong to develop this kid, he's going to cling to him like a life raft in hopes that the kid saves his job.
That's never been the narrative. He was going to LSU to be developed. He was doing that more than taking $10 million. Then they bumped it up to $12 million and he couldn't say no.

Week 14 Game Discussion Thread

But if BYU beats Texas Tech in the CCG the Big-12 could get 2 teams.
This would be the case. I don’t know why people don’t see it. Committee won’t move ttech below a team that didn’t play in their CCG, but BYU would move up. They would both likely end up in the 5-8 slots. Tech wouldn’t drop below ole miss (assuming Bama wins), A&M (assuming they drop below tech tomorrow), Oregon or ND since they aren’t playing next week. BYU would probably jump them meaning they should both be in the 4-6 slots.

Login to view embedded media I hope everyone is finally on board with the hire now. This defense played lights out. I dont think I had a worry about scUMs offense in the entire 2nd half
