2026 tOSU Offense Discussion

Miami has sent this open/weak side nickel pressure, SIM or 5th man. either c or b gap, all damn year.

The Ole Miss coaching staff had their answers & their players ready.

Not to beat a dead horse, but the lack of offensive preparation for the Miami game is only becoming more glaring watching things like this.

Not a good look, and not sure how you can be unprepared for a playoff game. Main guess is that Hartline leaving was more disruptive to game planning than we thought, and Bailey or Bowen was supposed to handle this part and didn't get it done. Ending the season with those offensive performances, plus Day looking overwhelmed the entire Miami game, makes me hopeful for a great OC hire paired with a Boyer type to help them adjust.

I'm hoping they target more NFL guys going forward, because they'll be less likely to leave at the worst time possible.

2026 scUM Shenanigans, Arguments, Arrogant Twatwaffles, Emasculated Cucks, Feckless Marmots, Dirty Cheaters "Mid"chigan

So far, their portal haul is.

3 Utah guys who are only there because they followed the coach. DE John David Henry was the big prize, however he is recovering from a torn Achilles late in the season and who knows when he may be able to contribute and if he will ever be very effective ever again. The TE had a good enough showing as a freshman at Utah but who knows how he will translate at a higher level of competiton. They got another DE from there was well who on3 has rated as the #76 EDGE in the portal

Jamie Ffrench who is only there because scUM 100% swung the biggest bag his way - has proven nothing on the field to this point

RB Taylor Tatum from Oklahoma who has had big fumbling and injury issues. (#28 portal RB from on3)

LB Max Alford from BYU - #219 LBer in the portal according to on3

S Chris Bracy from Memphis- #167 S in the portal according to on3

OL Houston Ka’aha’aina-Torres from Nebraska - #171 IOL in the portal according to on3

QB Brayden Fowler Nicolosi from Colorado State - #51 QB in the portal according to on3

WR Braydon Alford from Butler, Tony Alford's son, literal non factor

And a Kicker, Punter & Long Snapper

Their rumored "unlimited money cannon" appears to have broken down. Nobody is lining up to play for Whittingham and his band of Big 12 level coaches.
