Walter E. “Ted” Carter (Former OSU President)

Jeebus. And the hits just keep coming. WTF has been going on with the Trustees and Administration?
We sit here and make fun of TCUN for all of their issues when it looks like we are living in a big glass house.
The trustees are dominated by Wexner cronies. The Chair is literally his personal lawyer, and Slapshot was brought in to be a puppet for Wexner...to block any investigation into his knowledge of the Strauss debacle, to keep his name slapped on everything and to allow his "wife's" continued meddling in the medical center. This will not be a good hiring process. No a-list type of candidates that we could have attracted four years ago will be interested.

At least Slapshot wasn't here long enough to do any real damage to admissions, research or fundraising.

RB J.K. "All Day" Dobbins (2017 B1G CG MVP, 2019 1st Team All-American, Denver Broncos)

And hence is the reason(s) that the shelf life of a RB in the NFL is on the short side of 5 years. Every play puts a RB into harms way, with all those nasties trying to tear a piece of you off. Not for me thank you, but if you can hang, becomes lucrative. Yeah, me too, hoping that JK can recover and excel. Don't really care which pro team he labors for, but root for him (as well as all Buckeyes). PS, try running away/around those brutes, makes your body last longer.....

Texas A&M Aggies, aTm (official thread of jizz jars)

I know this is for their basketball team but it encapsulates their entire athletics department and fan base so succinctly

Ha.
"You may have beat us by 31, but we stopped you on fourth down at our 10 yard line with 1:36 remaining in the game."

2026 tOSU Offense Discussion

Ehhh blaming the coaching only goes so far. At some point the kids gotta execute.
Kids can only execute what they are prepared to execute. I agree, in general, with your statements; I know that I’ve coached games that I can look back at and say, that it was on the kids… but sure as shit, I can point at a few games that were completely on me and what I did to prepare them.

OL Coach Tyler Bowen (Official Thread)

I just see it as Smith’s version of Boyer that Patricia got last year. Couldn’t tell you how good of an idea it is, but it’s someone they like coaching with that makes things run easier.
Agreed. I read it as a 'we're not thrilled with our OL coaching, specifically w/r/t the run game. This shit needs fix'n and with a new OC who knows how to establish a mean ground and pound (debatable for BN27) run game, we need someone to take his vision and unfuck the OL.'

Holy Buckeye!


THE STARS WERE ALIGNED. I had a blast on the latest 12th Warriors Happy Hour with Michael Jenkins. The Ohio State legend joined members of Eleven Warriors’ selfless perks program on Thursday to discuss his college career, NFL career and life after football.

I could share many details about the call — and I likely will in the future — but I have to start with Jenkins’ breakdown of Holy Buckeye. Eleven Warriors ranked last offseason as Ohio State’s No. 1 play since 2000, which Jenkins called “special.”

“It’s pretty wild to think of,” Jenkins said. “When you go back and look at the magnitude of that play with everything on the line, and kind of the way Tressel Ball had been — 3 yards and a cloud of dust, take a deep shot, and it works out — I’m glad I caught it. You think of everything that’s happened since then in Ohio State history, and for that to be up there in a lot of Buckeye memories and minds, it’s very special.”

The play call for Holy Buckeye was King Right 64 Y-Shallow Swap. Jenkins said it was designed for tight end Ben Hartstock, who hauled in a 13-yard reception the play before. However, as we all know now, that’s not how it worked out.

“You’re really thinking that Ben Hartstock is going to get the little crossing route. We’d just get the first down and keep going down the field,” Jenkins said. “But the crazy part was the Swap for us. When you run the tight end on the Shallow, I always ran the Dig, and then (Chris) Gamble or the Z would run a Post.

“So, Swap, you know, we obviously swapped what we were doing. I’m supposed to run the post, and then Gamble’s supposed to run a Dig. But if you look at the film, like I just ended up running a Go and Gamble’s running a post. So we didn’t even run what we were supposed to run. And so that just lets you know, as my Dad always says, the stars were aligned that season.”

Yes, they were!
