NCAA names finalists for 2025 and 2026 Women’s Final Four host cities
Columbus, Phoenix, Portland and Tampa chosen
January 27, 2020
Four cities with a blend of NCAA championship host experience have been chosen as finalists to be considered as future hosts for the NCAA Women’s Final Four in 2025 and 2026.

The NCAA Division I Women’s Basketball Committee identified four cities that will be under consideration to host during those two years. Those cities and venues are Columbus, Ohio (Nationwide Arena); Phoenix (Talking Stick Resort Arena); Portland, Oregon (Moda Center); and Tampa, Florida (Amalie Arena).

“The number and quality of potential host cities for the Women’s Final Four continues to grow,” said Diane Turnham, chair of the Division I Women’s Basketball Committee and senior associate athletics director at Middle Tennessee. “The Women’s Final Four selection process continues to be successful in identifying those cities that will raise the bar for one of America’s premier sporting events and the world’s women’s basketball events.”

Finalist cities must submit final bids by April 13. NCAA committee and staff will conduct site visits from June through August, with finalist cities delivering final in-person presentations to members of the committee Sept. 23-25. Formal recommendations and final approval of the 2025 and 2026 Women’s Final Four sites will take place in October.

Columbus (2018) and Tampa (2008, 2015 and 2019) previously have hosted the Women’s Final Four. Phoenix and Portland are vying to host for the first time.

2020 KY ATH Landen Bartleson (Verbal Offer)

ScriptOhio
Notre Dame releases CB Landen Bartleson from letter of intent after arrest

Notre Dame has released 2020 cornerback signee Landen Bartleson from his national letter of intent after Bartleson was arrested in connection with a gun store robbery in Danville, Kentucky.

Bartleson had signed with Notre Dame in the early signing period in December, but head coach Brian Kelly released a statement Saturday saying Bartleson would not be joining the program following his arrest.

"After reviewing all of the facts available to us and speaking with the Bartleson family, we informed them that Landen will no longer be welcomed as a member of our football program," Kelly said in the statement. "This incident is very much out of character for the man we have come to know and we wish Landen and his family well."

Danville Police posted a statement on its Facebook page saying the alleged crime took place Thursday night and police responded the following morning. Investigators determined Bartleson, along with two other suspects, entered a gun store after smashing a window and then removed multiple weapons.

Two juveniles were charged, but Bartleson is being charged as an adult since he is 18 years old, and all three are charged with first-degree burglary, first-degree criminal mischief and receiving stolen property over $10,000.

The third charge is in relation to theft of a 2015 Lexus NX200T, that investigators linked to the three suspects, including Bartleson.

Re: The annual tuition and living expense budget to go to Notre Dame was $71,801 for the 2018/2019 academic year. The cost is the same for all students regardless of Indiana residence status as there is no in-state discount.

It's amazing how prized a 4 year football scholarship is and what many high school kids would do get one. The value of a "4 year full ride" at Notre Dame is over $71K per year and Bartleson just threw it away......:no:

Most Satisfying Buckeye Wins For YOU

I don't disagree with any of that. The 2004 UM game is very underrated as a huge win for the program as well
Bucklion said:
So many great wins to pick from, obviously. Many of them have been outlined already. My favorite game of all-time is the 2002 Michigan game, because I was in the stands and experienced it with everyone first-hand. Undefeated season on the line, final pass into the end zone...and the bedlam afterwards. There will never be anything like it again for me. The National Title game that year, watching with family, including with my mom, who had been diagnosed with Stage IV cancer but got to see one more title after 1968.

But I would say that the most "satisfying" is what I would argue is the most important victory in the history of Ohio State football. Others will disagree, possibly vociferously, and that's cool. I can see other POVs. But, in making that distinction, I am considering 1) everything that college athletics has turned into. The billion dollar industry. The recruiting war. The TV deals. The national branding. The BCS and then the playoff. The southern dominance brought about by the rise of the evil Alabama empire, the ascension of Clemson, and ESPN's desire to turn the SEC into their own personal moneymaking playground. Also, 2) the old adage "what would have happened had they lost that game?" So...with that said...

The 2001 Michigan game is the most satisfying and important game in OSU history. Why? Too long for me to post everything. But, in Cliff Notes style, look at where we were. Look at the build-up. Look where we went after winning in. Look where we could have been had we NOT won it. People forget, and young fans don't even know, how bad it was.

We were coming off of 10 losses in 13 years to our biggest rival. Many of those times we were the more talented team. The two wins we got in the Cooper era came during seasons where we had arguably 2 of the 3 most embarrassing losses in program history. We were coming off of back-to-back losses, including at home in 2000, a game I sat through somehow without vomiting. Woodson had won the Heisman 3 years earlier. We were coming off of 2 seasons where we had 1 where we went 6-6, lost 3 in a row at the end of the year, and missed a bowl, and 2000, where we went 8-3 but came off of that home loss to get embarrassed 24-7 to "Mr. Football" who we didn't even recruit, with a team that John Cooper had clearly lost completely. We were known for Reggie Germany and his infamous 0.0, and for Ken Yon-Rambo and his...Rambo shit. We then did a coaching search, and instead of getting a name du jour like Mike Bellotti, we got a guy from I-AA that half of the fanbase didn't even know who he was. And the first thing he did...was basically go Joe Namath and promise a victory in The Game. At Michigan. The Following Year. Michigan was coming off of a 3-loss season where they had beaten Auburn in the Citrus Bowl as a springboard into 2001. They were 10-2 the year before that and had beaten Alabama in the Orange Bowl. We opened Tressel's career with what should be called a mediocre season up until Week 11. Senior talent was thin. Bellisari was the QB. They were 6-4, the horrible come-from-ahead loss at Penn State to give Paterno a landmark victory #, and losses to Wisconsin and Illinois. Michigan came in #11, 6-1 in conference, ready to claim a conference title at home against a team they had throttled for a decade. Ohio State would go on to lose their bowl game to Mr. Football and South Carolina...again. BUT...that Michigan game. 26-20. A day that will live in Ohio State lore. The rebirth of Buckeye football. The ULTIMATE spring board. In confidence. In winning big games. In recruiting. In accepting the "no-name" coach who people asked "who the fuck?" just a year earlier. An undefeated season and a national title the next year. And 17 out of the last 19 against the fuckers from the peninsula.

None of that happens, none of it, if they lose that game. What happens when the "no-name" coach finishes 6-5 and can't back up his "guarantee"? How does 2002 turn out? How is recruiting affected, particularly in Ohio? Would we ever have turned the tide in the rivalry? Would we ever have won another title? Ever gotten Urban Meyer? Ever locked down Ohio in recruiting? Would Tressel have even made it 2 or 3 years? No one knows any of these answers for sure, but...one thing I can say in my humble opinion...nothing that has happened since 2001 would ever have happened had it not been for that win. None of it.

I don't disagree with that at all, even though I had that game 5th on my list behind the 2 most recent title game victories and the 2 games that immediately preceded them. A hugely important game at a minimum and very plausibly exactly what you say it is. I've posted before that Jonathan Wells' 44 yard TD on 4th and 1 is one of the most overlooked critical plays in the history of the program. The 2004 victory over UM is very underrated for similar reasons as well: After the 2003 loss, a loss in that game (in which UM was favored) makes JT 2 and 2 against them going back to Ann Arbor in 2005 and a return to the 90s looks possible. Instead Troy Smith (the ultimate Wolverine Slayer) runs wild, 2003 becomes nothing more than an aberration, and the beatings continue, possibly UTQTFS.

And just for fun:

Exorcising the bad Karma thread

MrCodeDude said:
Karma is bullshit. I was humble all game, even when we were up 10-0 and looked like we were going to perform all game. Then LSU starts scoring and the LSU guy next to me starts thrusting and telling me to suck his cock (insert LSU gay joke here) and what happens? LSU wins.

Oh yay....not in the recruiting forum any more.

Hey Lamont. FUCK YOU. Learn how to fucking tackle you gigantic piece of shit. Thanks for costing us a NC....not because of how good you or your team is, but because you went to an inferior program that teaches you dangerous ways of tackling. Get hazed, you overhyped sack of shit.

2020 2020 BRPT Class Review - Early Signing Edition

ScriptOhio
RB07OSU said:
LordJeffBuck: Cameron Martinez is still verbally committed to Ohio State, but he is looking around (primarily at Northwestern, who sees him as their version of Chris Gamble, or something). Running back Jahmyr Gibbs is currently a Georgia Tech verbal, but he is scheduled to officially visit Ohio State on January 17th (and Florida January 24th, and Georgia Tech January 31st). APB Michael Drennan II (Dublin Coffman) is still unsigned, but the Buckeye staff has had numerous chances to evaluate and pursue the state's #4 prospect and to date they have chosen not to do so. Walnut Ridge ATH Qian Magwood has been mentioned from time to time, but he seems more like a MAC level player and he doesn't really fill a position of need for Ohio State. There's always a chance that we see a name arise out of nowhere, like Enokk Vimahi in last year's class. I'm hoping for a 4-star DE with top-end speed. I'm probably banking that scholarship.

Al Washington, Ohio State still recruiting Qian Magwood

Last Saturday, Ohio State assistant coach Al Washington was spotted at Walnut Ridge High School outside of Columbus — where Qian Magwood, one of Ohio’s top two-sport athletes, was playing basketball.

We’ve written about Magwood here on Lettermen Row in the past. He’s a really good athlete, but on the football field, he’s sort of a man between positions. He wants to play receiver in college, but Ohio State and other schools believe his best future could be on defense.

After the decision to cancel the official visit of Jahmyr Gibbs last week as a result of scholarship numbers being too tight, many wondered why Ohio State would then immediately head out and visit another 2020 athlete.

That’s a fair question, but it shouldn’t be expected that an offer is imminent for Magwood at this point. It’s more likely that the Buckeyes are working to maintain a relationship with the 6-foot-1, 195-pound athlete in the event that Cameron Martinez decides against signing with the program next month. Magwood is not expected to make any of his own recruiting decisions until Feb. 5 as well.

That plan could change, though, if Magwood is offered by Michigan State in the near future, as some speculate will happen. Either way, the Buckeyes do not intend to add another 2020 prospect to the school unless Martinez decides to go a different direction. That’s not a guarantee that Magwood would be the guy to fill that spot if Martinez were to do that, but the 3-star local prospect would certainly be on the short list.

video was so funny. My sister is a vegan, she was like this in the beginning. Looking at her I think many of her health problems stem from being a vegan for years. Her husband just had to have a quadruple CABG (bypass). He had a heart attack hiking the appalachian trail. The vegan diet didn't seem to help him much
