2027 TX DB Taelyn Mayo (Verbal Offer)

Yeah very few CBs excel being that tall(Sherman, Browner, Woolen). But if he can still keep his hips loose and stay low and not lose speed or athleticism at that size, then you have something very special

There are ways you can structure certain coverages to protect tall corners. A lot of what Seattle does is a great example. Their Trix call let's at least 1 corner sit in MOD to cap fades and/or any MRO tags.

They have another that was used in the Superbowl, the zero tag sim pressure with that allows outside align even in MEG.

I have complete confidence in Coach Pat to play tall corners to their strength.

OSU vs. USC, 6:30 PM EST 2/11 BTN

Was also nice to see our awesome arena have multiple clock failures too. Classy
It's like we're trying our best to further announce we don't care about basketball in Columbus smh. I think back to when I was at Ohio State when there was so much (deserved) excitement with Matta and players like Sully, Craft, Thomas, etc...the student section and fans were doing much better in terms of attendance and most, but it seems like that was short lived. Can't really blame anyone at this point though, there's a chance I might just go to the RPAC instead to lift and chase some Lulu Lemon wearing college girls (assuming we turn back the time).

But aside from that, glad to get a win at home. Who knows, maybe we can fart our way into the Tourney somehow. Even if it's a one and done, I see another NIT appearance being a near death sentence for Diebler's career here. Maybe this win gets us there if we can pull off an upset or two in the conference tourney.

DT John Archer is planning 5 spring visits: Ohio State, NC State, UNC, FSU, and TX. No dates finalized yet.

He's near the top of the board for our big beefy NT target. Also, he grew up an OSU fan.
Big fan, glad it appears we have a legit shot. Reminds me a bit of McDonald at the same stage (a tad lighter maybe).

OSU Men's Basketball Recruiting/Projections/General Discussions

Ohio State showed how much importance they placed on basketball when they refused to act after the Buckeyes were attacked and beaten by players and fans at Minnesota all those years ago. Fred Taylor, a coach considered in the same light as Kentucky's Rupp and who had taken his team to a national championship and multiple NCAA runs, was shattered and resigned thereafter when the Big Ten also refused to take the matter seriously.

For those of us who love or loved Ohio State basketball, nothing has changed in the years since. The Schott was supposed to address the lack of former support and people should appreciate all that the Schottenstein family has done for Ohio State sports, but I suspect that there is no intention by anyone to support two major sports in this day and age.

What has happened to collegiate athletics, and OSU basketball in particular, is so disappointing.
