As I’ve grown older, I’ve found during interactions with folks especially younger ones asking “How are you” or “are you ok, you seem off” is a small gesture, that can mean a lot. You might not get an honest answer but it might help spur something positive.

I think its something many of us who are a little older(45+) are starting to realize and pivot towards when it comes to our younger counterparts. We were always told to suck it up and deal with whatever. Not sure thats the best method long term, and especially for the younger generation

2028 TX WR Damarion Mays (Verbal Offer)

Meant to post this earlier in the week.

This is one to keep a close eye on in the Lone Star State. Ohio State is the only school that lit up his face in the video interview. Patterns his game after Jeremiah Smith. Is an ELITE, likely 5-star talent.

I’m curious how hard we are pushing here for Perez. Not exactly the type of schools that we go up against.

I mean if you think about it, IU is the defending NC, and will be on many lists of top players. And I can see Franklin continuing to try and raid OH for talent since he spent so much time at Ped St. MSU has always been a thorn in OSU's side with lower rated OH kids.

Former Ohio State Safety Rob Harley Named Interim Head Coach at Northern Illinois​

Former Ohio State safety Rob Harley is now the interim head coach at Northern Illinois.
Northern Illinois promoted Harley to interim head coach on Wednesday after Thomas Hammock, who had been NIU’s head coach since 2019, left the Huskies to be the running backs coach for the Seattle Seahawks.
Harley, who played for the Buckeyes from 2001-05, joined Northern Illinois’ coaching staff as defensive coordinator in 2025. He was previously the defensive coordinator at Arkansas State from 2021-24. Before that, Harley was the linebackers coach at Pittsburgh (2015-20) and FIU (2014). He started his coaching career at Ohio Dominican (2010-11), coaching linebackers and defensive backs under the direction of longtime former Ohio State assistant Bill Conley, before a two-year stint as a graduate assistant at Michigan State (2012-13).
Harley, the great nephew of Ohio State legend Chic Harley, takes over interim head coaching duties at Northern Illinois as the Huskies move from the MAC to the Mountain West for the 2026 season.
Assuming NIU sticks with Harley as its head coach for 2026, he will be one of seven Ohio State alumni leading a FBS program this year.
Harley is the third former Buckeye to become a first-time FBS head coach this offseason, joining Brian Hartline (USF) and Mike Jacobs (Toledo). They join former Ohio State stars Luke Fickell (Wisconsin), Marcus Freeman (Notre Dame) and Eddie George (Bowling Green) as well as former Ohio State student Alex Golesh (Auburn) – who didn’t play for the Buckeyes, but was a student assistant for Jim Tressel in 2004-05 – as Buckeyes who are now FBS head coaches.

The Jerome Schottenstein Center (Official Thread)

Been to the Schott several times during the past several years. Both men's and women's basketball. I do have a bit of trouble with spending $5.2 million on a scoreboard, that to me, does all that it's supposed to do. OK, maybe it's not the shiniest apple in the B10 stable, but hey? Who gives a rip. Doubt seriously whether any recruit has stood on the floor, looks up, and say Not going here, the scoreboard is a mess.....maybe I'm wrong. PS, cannot some of these computer whiz bangs do some reprogramming to have it show whatever one believes is missing? I demand an audit of all Athletic Department budgets/funds/cash and contracts!

5.2 million in nil for basketball players might just make a difference though huh?

Ohio State vs. #15 Virginia, (Nashville, TN), Saturday Feb. 14, 8pm EST, FOX

It was the first game of the season they didn't start Mobley. You act like missing one of your leading scorers is no big deal, but OSU refused to put competitive NIL resources into building up this roster, so it's a huge deal.

On Mobley, yes he might have contributed or he might have scored about 3 points as he did against Pitt or Washington. He probably would have taken some of Thornton's 28 pts, so that could have been a wash. But he wouldn't have made much difference in the rebounding deficit, which was 14! They outrebounded OSU 40 - 26. If you saw the game you saw our guys lose rebounds they should have had, not be in position for rebounds, etc...

E.g., two Buckeyes under the basket, boxing out a UVA player who jumps over them and swats it to his teammate. Our guys didn't bother to jump or even raise their arms for the ball. Another one, ball is bouncing under the basket, our two guys stand there and let the UVA guy pick it up, *then* Tilly decides to do something, ties it up, possession arrow to UVA. Other plays where OSU is nowhere near in position. Buckeyes have the size to be better than 103rd in rebounding. UVA is 12th in rebounding because of good coaching and mentality (from good coaching).

It is obvious OSU does not run a well-coached offense even with Mobley. This is in contrast to their opponents that have seasoned coaches that know what they are doing. Game on the line, under a minute to go, it's Tilly for the 3. Da fuq? With Bynum and Thornton on the court? That's bad coaching. That's why we can't win these close ones.
