Drafted from the 2024 Buckeyes

Comparison (to date) of the 2024 Ohio State Buckeyes with the 2001 Miami Hurricanes, often considered to be the most talented CFB team of all time. Several Buckeyes from the 2024 team (Jeremiah Smith, Julian Sayin, Kenyatta Jackson, Brandon Inniss, et al) will be eligible for the 2027 NFL draft, so I will update this comparison next year.

Iowa Hawkeyes (Official Thread of The Under)

I hear you, but I wasn’t thinking banning them. I was thinking of how many people, other than Buckeye fans, would bother to watch The Game if Michigan spent 5 years as a team that won an average of two games per season, i.e. Indiana pre-Cignetti.
Nonsense. The world didn't stop spinning while they had Hoke and Rich Rod. This myth that CFB needs Michigan is tired.

PG Duane Washington Jr. (3rd Team All-B1G, 1st Team All-B1G Tourney, Partizan)

Wanted to see how Duane Washington Jr. was doing overseas, and saw that he broke a league scoring record earlier this season.

Duane Washington scores 48 for a new all-time ABA League record​

Link: https://www.eurohoops.net/en/aba/19...-partizan-completes-the-comeback-in-slovenia/

Career-high for Duane Washington Jr (48 points, 10/14 from beyond the arc). He also had the ABA all-time high, surpassing Daron Russell, who scored 47 in 2022.

Can this be an OHIO STATE license plate of some kind.

Gemini says:

Based on its design, colors, and dimensions, this is a 1914 Ohio motorcycle license plate.

Here are the specific details that identify it:

  • Jurisdiction & Year: In 1914, the state of Ohio issued motorcycle plates with this specific orange-on-white color scheme.
  • Design: The "OH" stacked vertically on the left was the standard abbreviation used by Ohio for motorcycle plates during that era.
  • Material: These plates were made of porcelain-enameled steel, which gives them that distinct glossy, heavy finish and embossed look visible in the photo.
  • Size: You can see from the ruler at the bottom that the plate is approximately 8 inches wide. This smaller size (compared to a standard 12-inch car plate) confirms it was intended for a motorcycle.
During the early 20th century, license plate colors changed every year to help police quickly identify if a vehicle's registration was current. These porcelain plates are highly collectible today because they don't rust or fade as easily as the stamped metal plates that followed.
Thanks for the effort. Running with this and will report back.
