Ohio State has reportedly lost a recruiting staffer to LSU, per a report from On3.

Morgan Phillips, who was the Director of Recruiting & Special Events for the Buckeyes, is going back to LSU — where she was in the 2023 season. She joined Ohio State in August 2024 and worked in an on-campus role.

A moment of silence for his uncle. What could have been. If this young man has an eighth of his Uncle, look out.

Is that bad?

Undoubtedly. No one has ever said that Ryan Day was deficient in the brain department. Hey, had a thought. It appears (to me at least), that a combination of Kevin Wilson and Brian Hartline will collaborate on OC duties, plus Wilson becoming OL coach, and Hartline doing his dance with the WRs. Has anyone told Brian that he'd have to give up his field duties, because an OC mostly stays in the press box area to oversee what the other team's D is doing. Don't really believe he's ready to give up his field duties quite yet. Finally, thought LeAllen (?) was the asst DL coach to LJsr? Seems to me, to be a blow as thought he was the heir apparent. For when LJ finally calls it a career.

So I'm guessing that LJsr has 're-upped' as DL coach for The Ohio State University? Else why let his heir apparent go elsewhere? To get blooded in the big chair somewhere else first? Someone help me clear away the fog?

It is me too, watched this one with my dad and realized every time I watch we seem to lose. But we played pretty well until that final run by Illinois...tough to win there on the road and Illinois is damn good this year. I think there is plenty to build on to make a nice run in the upcoming schedule and start building the resume back up.

How fucking bad are these guys? Got on the Saturday game and they've given up 19 shots and 2 goals in the first half of the first period. Those are often end of 2nd period type numbers.

Have to say, was impressed with the rebounding stats. Also with the fact that all three of tOSU's bigs had 4 or more fouls. Shows me that they were under the hoop and working hard. Fouls happen, and at PSU, saw our share of ticky-tack fouls. But the point is that they all played hard. Thought Diebs would let Bradshaw play through his fourth, and when the fifth comes, reload with the Croatian frosh. Also like that when they 'go small', there's two long forwards to cover the rim. Don't believe that this team has defined roles yet (as I can see), but enough savvy on the floor that they fill in for teammate 'misses'. Also, seems like there are enough bigs that a rotation can be established. Saw the freshman big stand tall during the closing minutes, a block/rebound, and then again a rebound and put back. Cannot count on our backcourt lighting it up as they did at PSU, all the time. PS, Bradshaw needs a bit more meat on his bones to handle the B10 pounding.

Bagmen.

Bagmen.

Not saying what we don't already know, but this Hartline cat is good at his job. Keep him at all costs.
