Justin Frye (OL Coach Arizona Cardinals)

No insight but on top of running an OLine academy in Arizona it looks like Bentley is also part of a sports agency (focused on representing Offensive Linemen).

Might be giving up quite the lifestyle of letting other athletes make money for him, with some coaching on the side vs getting into the crossfire of big time college football coach.

But I am seeing he was on campus prior to the Tennessee game - helping the OL. So who knows. Guy is successful at his craft, well known in the OL circles and a Buckeye.
I know it's the Scoop...so BS, but Barton interviewed him earlier this year. He said there were only a couple places he'd entertain coaching at..one was OSU...said he'd sorta like to see how he could do in that position vs what he's doing now..good interview...had me, with my titanium hip, ready to run through a wall..

take it for what it's worth

A plane crash

Horrible news tonight with an American Airlines regional jet colliding with a helicopter just before landing. The jet lands in the river and likely many fatalities. I don't know how to fly but I've always been curious about airplanes and the reasons they crash. I've watched about every video on YouTube from Flight Channel detailing every crash. I remember in the 1980s there would be 4-5 crashes per year in the USA alone. Since 9/11, there have only been 3 major airline crashes until tonight.

A month after 9/11, a large airliner from NYC heading to the Caribbean crashed, raising fears of a terrorist attack. Nope, the co-pilot was poorly trained and made aggressive maneuvers to get out of wake turbulence, causing the rudder to snap off.

Then in Lexington KY, the crew took off from the wrong runway which was much shorter. It wasn't even lit causing the pilot to comment seconds before his death, "This is weird with no lights." He didn't abort, and every passenger died.

Then the final crash until tonight, in Buffalo NY, a poorly trained pilot and tired co-pilot crashed a Comair jet short of the runway when they were not watching the speed and it stalled and went out of control.

And now tonight. For the last few years, the FAA has mentioned near misses due to airport congestion and I always thought it was alarmist. But I guess I was wrong. This crash is the result of a collision between an airliner and a military helicopter close to a major airport. Who will be to blame?

WR Mylan Graham (National Champion)

Who do you guys think is higher in the pecking order? Graham or Rodgers? I saw Rodgers on the field a fair amount this past year, I dont think I saw Graham at all. He is only a freshman though that had a late start.

And watch out for Porter. Seems like that kid is going to be a stud. Finished out the 2025 cycle as a 5-Star and the composite number 20 player on 247 (higher than Innis, Tate, and Graham in their respective classes).

What book are you currently reading, or recommend?

Just read "Challenger" the story of the space shuttle program including obviously the Challenger disaster. If you don't like reading, I would recommend the Netflix series.

I remember as a kid hearing about cold weather + O-rings = BAD.

But I had no idea that the engineers for the company that made the solid rocket boosters voted against launching as they were worried about cold temperatures and the effect it would have on the O-rings. But NASA and management pressed ahead because they were sick of continued delays with shuttle launches and they wanted to prove they could launch 20-30 times per year. Literally management told the lead engineer - you need to take off your engineering hat, and put on your management hat. And he caved. And the astronauts died.
