2027 GA DL David "DJ" Jacobs is a Buckeye!!!

There's no reason why we don't have as bottomless a bag as Nike U or Ponzi Scheme U.
I suspect they can somewhat keep up, but they choose not to go there. Day has been on the record that if it is just about the money, OSU is not for them. I think they stay competitive throughout the players career.

College Football Playoffs Expansion Discussion

i also don't like extending it much beyond even 10 or 12 because it makes the regular season less meaningful.

but... there's no way the ratings can drop. mathematically it would not go in that direction. more teams = more games = more money. it does somehow "devalue" the regular season, but it doesn't seem to get in the way with mlb, nba, nfl, nhl.

and with nil there's not going to be angst about letting college athletes endure more wear and tear.

so, as long as you don't drop more than something like 3 games in the regular season, and your roster isn't totally depleted, you're going to be in and able to make a run and earn more $$$.

and the more you let in the more it promotes the narrative of "make a run".

This current first round exposure of the non elite teams is no bueno for ratings in the long run. Now they will be able to get idiots like Herbie spewing 'Cinderella!!!" when one mediocre team beats 2-3 mediocre teams before they face a big boy.

Reflexivity of a sort.

Asinine Conspiracies

What does BP think of Mandela Effects? I find those interesting.. things that just seem undeniable from my childhood: fruit of the loom having a cornucopia, Chik-fil-A, and "take my strong hand" being some of the all time hits. Is my generation collectively misremembering or what is this? Chinese knock off shirts sold at Kmart?

Neal Shipley (PGA Golf Pro)

Only $36k so far this year, playing golf. We should all be so miserable
In golf though, that’s indicative of his play and placement. It’s also very minimal winnings with his costs. I’m sure he has sponsors but that can dry up if he doesn’t start playing more weekends and getting higher on the board.

Earnings also play into getting into the no cut tournaments. This is why you see Koepka playing so much, to raise his status.

The Ohio State Baseball (Official Thread)

Disgusting ending to an otherwise very improved season.

The offense was a hack fest but the home plate ump wasn't doing any favors. scUM pitcher got constant questionable strike calls whole our pitcher constantly got squeezed into walks. A definite case of a conference making the call to do all they can to try to push another team into the tournament
