Any NFL franchise that would even consider hiring a guy who has a 16-21 record coaching major college football as their head coach deserves to fold. It's easy to say "no way" when nobody is ever going to ask.

5 games under .500?

Arizona Cardinals offered Kliff Kingsbury the HC job in 2019 after he compiled a 35–40 record at Texas Tech. He had Patrick Mahomes there too.

PGA Tour (Official Thread)

billmac91 said:
The issue with Brooks is he always played a “light” PGA Tour schedule anyways. He has never liked to grind, and he’s an admitted “home-body”…..nothing wrong with that, IMO.

For all the shit LIV players get, their schedule is mandatory to qualify for the contractual $$$, and the schedule is all over the world. Brooks hates that.

Add in LIV went to (4) round tournaments (like the PGA Tour) to qualify for World Ranking points, and many of the reasons Brooks joined LIV (for less wear and tear on his body) basically disappeared over 2 years.

He’s going to play a light PGA schedule, but be much happier.

The last thing I’d point out….he made his brother Chase $5M on LIV. Chase ended up being relegated but he earned over $5M in his short time in LIV, only bc Brooks called that shot (that Chase had to play the first season). Now that Chase is relegated, he can’t really do his brother any favors….

But at least the next time Chase calls from the Philippino Tour asking for $$$, Brooks can say “what’d you do with that $5M I made you?”

Was probably worth it for that alone.

I hadn’t realized that they’d gone to four rounds.

He didn't play in college for 8 years so he should have eligibility remaining. Guys who have played professionally are coming back to college. I think tOSU should put together a massive NIL package for him. (Unfortunately in today's wild west world that isn't as wild as it should sound.)

New Hockey Arena Coming to OSU in January?​

I'm watching Ohio State skating against Minnesota on the BTN and the announcers let a comment slip when talking about the job coach Steve Rohlik, who's in his 13th season with the Puckeyes has done. They said "there's big news coming in January about a new facility."

Just sayin': They still have a little over a week....:lol:

And crickets. I don't trust the dynamic duo of Slapshot and The Aggy to get anything done. It seems like they lucked into the NC last year and are content to just let the athletic department coast on momentum. With Slapshot, I think that's his general attitude towards the university overall.

I think you’re missing the point of “poor man’s”. He’s saying he just reminds him of Hill. A young, less refined version of Hill. Just like Sayin is comped as a “poor man’s” Drew Brees. He plays similar in style but isn’t at the same level as Brees, but might be one day.

Login to view embedded media You can do this with an older more experienced team. A team like how it was in the past, this method wouldn’t work. Too many young players. But when your team averages 23yo, they don’t need extensive practices. Most are self motivated at this point and don’t need a coach in their face to get after it. If you have more 1st and 2nd year players, practices, and hard ones at that are a necessity so they know the difference between college and HS and break bad habits. For example, Mylan Graham needed longer practices to create good habits, Devin McCuin won’t need that as he’s been in a college system and seen what it takes to play at a high collegiate level.

Should semipro/college players be paid, or allowed to sell their stuff? (NIL and Revenue Sharing)

Login to view embedded media
In the “dumbest use of money” section:


In the survey of Power Four general managers and staffers, On3 asked if there were any players significantly overpaid in the cycle. Seven responses came back with Texas Tech five-star offensive tackle commit Felix Ojo. Sources have told On3 that Ojo’s three-year deal is expectedto pay an average of $775,000 annually.

“Felix Ojo,” an SEC general manager said. “Texas Tech paid for measurables over tape. Every year, we get hit on high-ranked guys who aren’t good. If Jackson Cantwell actually got $5 million over three years, that’s a big risk

Another SEC general manager told On3, “Ojo is overrated. When I arrived here, we were recruiting him. I put on his tape and immediately took us off him. He stinks.”

Per BH poster:
Yeah I’ve even seen Texas Tech fans on their board admit he’s unlikely playable until year three. Which means you have a two year investment worth probably around $5 million in hopes he‘s ready to play in three years. It’s also banking on you having the right OL coach that can get him there. Not close to worth it.

This is why giving such big money to highly ranked HS lineman is so precarious. The positions that are the hardest to predict and getting some of the most money yet most are complete unknowns for several years. Hence the preference on transfers now

2026 tOSU Recruiting Discussion

calibuck
Will watch to see whether the 'wanna be a Buckeye' idea lasts past Coach Mick's winter training. And when one starts jacking weights next to someone who's competing for your position. Plus who's ahead of you on the two-deep. All sorts of 'what-ifs' abound. Yeah, do hope that this class stays relatively intact. For whatever reason, don't believe tOSU will be going after many 'projects' as normally do, probably more wanting to harvest from the portal. Noticed there was a fair amount of Ohio players that both left, and were in the mix to come back to Ohio...Also believe that a couple of classes were gutted by the portal, which leaves a vaccuum to be filled, hopefully by this year's recruits. Lastly, if one recruits based on NIL, then that recruit will be swayed by some other team illegally contacting a player for more cash/playing time etc.

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

ORD_Buckeye
One thing about these difficult rebuilding seasons under Rohlik is that he always has the team showing real improvement late in the season, and then they come out strong the next year. If history is any predictor, we'll be picked to finish last in the B1G next year and will end up making the tournament.
