The machine is playing well. Of course, the other team is on scholarship as well. Do like the way the bigs are playing, obviously before injuries. Also enjoy Devin sneaking in the paint to snag a rebound. He skies bigger than his height. And do believe that Thornton is 'taken for granted', probably by Buckeye faithful, as always going to have a 20 point, 6 assist, 5 rebound night. But if you iso on him, he works very hard for what he gets.

2027 VA OL Carter Jones (Clemson Verbal)

calibuck
I wonder, do our coaches have an amount allocated to them to spend, or is there a running balance that needs be drawn upon when looking at recruits. Do the coaches spend a huge amount on one player, and then use the rest of their NIL to build depth, with lesser lights? Or is the strategy kept under wraps like nuclear launch codes? Anyone got some insight?

S Faheem Delane (transfer to LSU)

Took me a while to connect the dots, but gotta agree. Of the 30 (currently) tOSU entrants into the portal, about 20 have found a new home. Being part of the Buckeyes, perennial contender, and by all accounts, very highly coached team, these young ones are doing what Thump implies, and using their training to leverage themselves into a starting position (?), and in all probability, more NIL loot. To whilst these RS sophomores, and sophomores are leaving, they are gutting at least two upcoming classes, and forcing tOSU to pick up some one and two year eligible players from other teams. And if I look at my crystal ball, the Buckeyes are going to lose many of their starters to the NFL after the 2026 year, and don't really see much 'coming up' the ranks to fill in, having learned the systems in place. Probably being an Eeyore here, but my brain is telling me one thing, and my gut another. Not entirely certain yet whether this team-catharsis will pay dividends, or not. Time will tell. Anyway, Go Bucks!

Random embarrassing instances about Romo's old man

Romanowski
So maybe one last story.

I worked for a bank for many years as a financial advisor/rm and at one point, I was the only male employee in the branch. I was eating lunch one day, and the branch manager came running into the break room. She was hysterical; nearly beside herself.

She says to me, “Come quick, there is a disheveled looking man with a machete, who just came into the lobby. He looked around and walked out. Please please hurry.”

I’m understandably nervous and I asked if they rang the silent alarm and they had not done so because this man had walked out without a fuss. So I cut my lunch short, walked out, and got back to my desk. Everything is good. I did not face the door, but the manager did. She turned white as a ghost and ran o er to my desk practically crying, “He’s back, he’s back, he has a huge knife.” I thought she was going to stroke out or have a heart attack.

I looked up at the man, and immediately buried my head in my hands. I said, “That’s my dad. He told me he was going to give me a chopping blade to borrow to cut down some thick brush at my in-law’s place on Kelleys Island. I told him to give me a call before he got here.”

I was so embarrassed. I told him that he can’t pull that shit. He had just got done working on his car, so he was wearing ripped up greasy jeans and a stained t-shirt. His hair was all o er the place and he legit looked like a psychopath. He completely blew it off as no big deal. I told him you can’t walk into a bank, or anywhere for that matter, looking like a bum holding a 15” chopper. Didn’t give two shits. He pretty much said that’s what you get when you work with a bunch of women. I just shook my head.

Needless to say I had to apologize profusely to the staff.
