Is it possible to get used to that type of heat?

I've been enduring it for going on 30 and spent 6 summers in it before that. You do eventually get used to it just like the snow and cold.

5* RB is pretty much worthless in terms of the team winning if the talent around him isn't good enough across the board to compete with the true higher end teams in the country.

I keep saying it but Bijan Robinson at Texas is the best example for this

He had very good Sophomore and Junior seasons.........Texas went a combined 13-12 in those seasons.

Well to be fair, they tried over paying for a QB and look where that got them.

Must have made quite the impression during OTA's.

They'll trade these guys for some low A ball goofs that can't see, let alone hit, pitches that spin.

We need a couple dozen more of those in the minors so our crackerjack development process can turn them into Major Leaguers who can't hit breaking balls.

You would think Tennessee learned something the last time they had a workhorse RB with a crap stable behind him in 2024 (Dylan Sampson et al). Dylan was hurt going into the playoffs despite playing like he was All-SEC that year, and with Dylan on the bench, Tennessee gets their doors blown off by the Buckeyes

Ohio State is better off buying a great stable of RBs for the RB room rather than putting all of their eggs in one basket. One injury or freak accident, and UT's season ends with a wet fart. Too much risk for such a long college foootball season

Good luck to DGG in dixie

Braylon Clark names Ohio State his leader and says he could make an early commitment:

Another quote from his story is that Ohio State is the one school that consistently challenges him to be a better player. That’s what I love so much about our recruiting, we don’t sell dreams or tell kids what they want to hear, we don’t hold their hand and tell them they’re the greatest player to ever walk the Earth.

Great news, this kid is insanely talented. Right there with Harrison Jr. (my nod to Harrison Jr though). That would be quite the duo.

Awful offensive team…..multiple chances to win in extra innings and just couldn’t play small-ball to get win. Terrible at bats, including awful job of getting bunt down. It’s rough when you have very limited power, and on top of that you don’t have guys who can make contact.

I rarely question Vogt but felt like Gavin easily could’ve pitched the 8th. Could just sense Gaddis was going to give the game up….and he did.

Can't imagine how I would feel if it were one of my daughters. Can't imagine how I would feel if he were my son. Just a sad thing and a reminder to everyone to not mix driving with alcohol (and without a soapbox as I did the same thing in my youth).

Something not being mentioned is context. If the deer came out of nowhere, I'm not sure sobriety would have been that much of an issue.

Declan Haying said Ohio State and Georgia Tech are the two schools standing out to him right now.
Tyler Bowen makes following OL recruiting fun.

Kevin Hartsfield said Georgia, Ohio State, Texas. Miami, Michigan and Oregon were among the first schools he heard from when communication opened for the 2028 class on June 15th.
Said he loves to compete and wants to go somewhere with a loaded RB room that he can trust, he doesn’t want to carry the load himself.

Fun fact. His dad is a Youngstown, OH native.

How did Illinois get involved in this?

Just wait, you'll see.

I want to preface this by saying I'm not a boomer hater. Young folk like to blame boomers for all of the world's problems and cry about how well they have it and I always say that they just took advantage of what was available to them at the time just as any generation would have done. That being said I have noticed a pattern. There's a small retirement community near our store. I can't count the times that we've caught these people who look to be fairly well off throwing shit into our dumpsters. We've bought padlocks but the homeless just come around with cutters and steal them. Or maybe it's the boomers. Also, they come driving past us throwing out of code product and become really upset when we tell them "no, we're not giving this stuff to you". As I said, these people are well off, they drive nice vehicle yet they're still trying to dumpster dive. I want to reiterate, I'm not a hater and I know this board has lots of wonderful boomers but there is a small handful of them that need to slapped around a bit.

I took it that @calibuck was asking if I could name a current star player, and personally I wouldn't consider Sorsby a star. And the Kelce brothers weren't seen as stars when they played at UC btw.

Just sayin': The last 3 years the Juggalos went, 3-9, 5-7, and 7-6; I don't think they currently have any "star players"......

Well, ESPN could give a callback to the guy who wouldn't report to work, unless he got Herbie's spot (he believed he was better), so got canned for abandoning his job. Went on to become AD of Nebraska, but lost track of him from then on. Hey, Hollywood resurrects old movie titles, maybe ESPN could go back in time as well?

On March 13, 2024, Texas A&M University announced that Trev Alberts had been hired as its new athletic director, replacing Ross Bjork, who took the same position at Ohio State.

The Women's Studies degree for the future ....

Selfishly, really hope he plays well, but not so well that he's a one-and-done in Buckeyeland.
