WR Brian Robiskie (Official Thread)

SKULL SESSION: CHASE YOUNG UPDATE COMING THIS WEEK, CJ SAUNDERS WILL SEEK A MEDICAL REDSHIRT AND TROY SMITH HAD UNIQUE MOTIVATION FOR BRIAN ROBISKIE

TROY TELLS HOW IT IS.
Troy Smith was an absolute legend on the field, but it turns out he was pretty legendary in the huddle as well.

Ohio State's most recent Heisman winner sat down with ESPN to tell a quick story about some unique motivational tactics that he used to get then-freshman receiver Brian Robiskie to stay on his damn feet after making a catch.

TL;DR, he told him he sucked.

From Troy Smith, via and ESPN video:

"In 2006, Brian Robiskie and I would get into it a lot, because he would make tremendous catches, but every time he caught the ball he would just get tackled. And at that time, I had a different way of motivating him.

I immediately rolled my eyes at him. I looked at him and he's like 'What?' and I'm like 'You know what? Just get the f*** out of the game.' He's PISSED at me.

But now, as he catches this ball, he makes a guy miss, does his thing, spins a little bit and then runs probably about 18 to 20 yards. The crowd's going crazy.

I'm trying to get the play and as I'm looking over to Tress', here comes this 6-4, lightskinned kid and he's like Tasmanian Devil, he's like spittin' 'Did you see that, motherf*****? You think that's a run after catch? Now should I get out of the game?'

And you know what? We ready now."

Hey, the results speak for themselves. I guess there's more to being a quarterback than setting passing records.

#16 Ohio State vs. Cincinnati, Wednesday, November 6 @ 8:30pm, FS1

3??? So UC gets a mulligan for the game Mick Cronin's first season 2006-07? Rebuild year or not, it counts in my book.
NO. They tried to give themselves one and explained it away as one scholarship player, Cronin's first year etc. So, they kept running their mouths. These last three losses have shut them up.

Re: I jumped off the couch and broke my coffee table.

I have a gimpy shoulder that has an annoying tendancy to pop out of its socket from time to time...

I was once giving some guy a bj, leaned against the back of the couch for leverage, and... um... dislocated my shoulder. :blush:
Hey, those couches can cause all kinds of problems, at least the Super70sSports guy didn't dislocate his shoulder........:slappy::slappy::slappy:

#16 Ohio State vs. Cedarville, Wednesday Oct. 30, 7 pm, BTN+

Gaffney and Diallo just aren't ready. YOu can see there is something there to work with, but they aren't there yet so I expect the 4/5 rotation to be pretty tight with Kaleb, Young, LIddell and some Andre at the 4. I doubt either will end up red shirting, so they'll see a little time here and there, but it won't be much.
small things like gaffney being confused with uncontested throws-in after some of cedarville's made buckets tells me that the game moves a bit too fast for him right now. probably has about about five different thoughts going through his head at all times. as stated before, think that the quicker he narrows his role, the quicker he adapts. rebound, understand defensive positioning, and make the occasional jumper. try to be a playmaker or try to block a lot of weak-side shots, though, and it will probably be difficult for him to leave the bench.
