Staff Andy Howell — College Scout

I’m really beginning to love the changes regarding number of coaches. This is fucking brilliant.


Ohio State football team hires Andy Howell as a college scout​

According to ESPN's Pete Thamel, the Buckeyes have hired Andy Howell as a college scout. Howell has worked in the NFL for 14 years. He has worked for the Dolphins most recently. Now, he will move down to the collegiate level and will be someone who helps them when it comes to the Transfer Portal.

Cleveland Browns (Factory of Sadness)

The follow up to the recent Manziel interview where he states that he roots for the Browns to go 0-16 every year. I always thought he would be a bust when they drafted him.

Tennessee Titans (Official Thread)

UCLA research suggests playing pro football can increase risk of developing ALS


The study looked at close to 20,000 professional football players who had participated in at least one game between 1960 and 2019. The data showed that professional football players were four times more likely than the general population to develop and die from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or ALS, a neurodegenerative disease.

Because the study covers 59 years, the researchers were also able to make an important connection between the length of a player’s football career and their risk of developing ALS. Specifically, the longer someone played football, the greater their likelihood of developing ALS became. Those players who developed ALS played more than 50% longer than those who did not.

Georgia fans are already conceding that they will lose Casey Barner to us, they know they can’t compete with Ohio State NIL wise.

I could see us landing Barner and Weddle going to Georgia, it’s been shown that NFL legacies don’t put as much emphasis on NIL as other recruits do.

Golden State Warriors (6x NBA Champions)

Draymond Green declines Warriors' option, becomes free agent​

Draymond Green is heading to free agency. The Warriors veteran has declined a $27.7 million player option for the 2026-27 season and will be a free agent tomorrow evening. Green has only played for the Warriors during his 14-year NBA career and has won four championships with the squad. The Warriors could bring Green back at a smaller average annual value and help make more moves possible.

The Warriors are said to be chasing both LeBron James in free agency and Anthony Davis on the trade market. Those moves would reunite LeBron and AD and pair them with Stephen Curry as Curry and James chase a fifth title.

Chaz Coleman (DE Penn St., transfer to Tennessee, dismissed from Tennessee, transfer to...)

I think that I saw that he had some form of vertigo? Potentially, the result of football-related trauma?

If that's the case, and regardless, I hope the kid finds his legs under him again.
That's what I have seen. Something along the lines of a concussion that has not fully healed.

Ohio State Men's Ice Hockey (2019 B1G Champions)

4 incoming Ohio State hockey players were selected in the 2026 NHL Draft

Despite being drafted, all four players are expected to play for Ohio State in the fall.

Ben Wilmott - 92nd overall pick - Las Vegas Golden Knights

Evan Jardine - 121st overall pick - Columbus Blue Jackets

Tobias Tvrznik - 126th overall pick - Colorado Avalanche

This season we saw Jakub Dobeš take over as the starting goaltender in Montreal, helping the Canadiens reach the Eastern Conference Finals before they were eventually eliminated by the Carolina Hurricanes, who went on to win the Stanley Cup.
Tobias Tvrznik hopes to find success in the NHL in the future after he was drafted by the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday in the fourth round.

The Czechia product will have a few years before he reaches the NHL, as he won’t even turn 19 until the end of July. Before committing to Ohio State, Tvrznik appeared in 39 games for the Wenatchee Wild of the Western Hockey League, posting a 3.10 goals against average and .913 save percentage.

While the goals against average is a little high, Tvrznik’s save percentage is impressive. With a pretty crowded pipeline at goalie, Tvrznik can afford to spend some time in Columbus to develop.

Airport annoyances

Not an annoyance per se, but I found it odd that there was a free feminine hygiene products dispenser in a men’s room in the Seattle airport, and yes I am sure that it was a men’s room, not a gender neutral restroom, and that I also hadn’t accidentally walked into the women’s room.
Those are for Mike Harbaugh…
