    James “not elite, not employed” Franklin

    Yuk! Yuk! He could sell his house in town for pennies on the dollar, and flee somewhere else. Also believe that someone would pick him up as a HC. Maybe not for the amount of money he's getting at PSU, but maybe in the $3-5M range. As far as the announcing part, one's gotta have some sort of...

    Big Ten and other Conference Expansion

    Am a bit confused here. OK, so $2B gets meted out to B10 teams + B10 office. Got that, however the split occurs. Is this an 'equity' position, or a discrete 'bond/loan' type of thing, which stretches for now until end of current TV contract? I also understand that the $2B is tied to a new...

    2027 tOSU Recruiting Discussion

    Kinda looks like guys giving up on teams that 'appear' to be looking to change HCs. tOSU is quite the story, losing 14 draft picks, with 8 being on D, yet having the 2's getting coached up to be 'better' (?) than last year's version. Certainly would get my notice if I was looking for a place...

    '26 OH SF Anthony Thompson (Verbal Offer)

    Well, tOSU has one national championship, and the others at least one a decade. (overstated, I know, but...)

    '27 FL C Obinna Ekezie Jr. (Verbal Offer)

    Maybe this is the kid that causes tOSU to open it's purse strings for basketball. Not certain whether it's 'a center causes complementary players to join up, or that a great point guard does', but one cannot coach size. But tOSU is needing under-sized players to clean the glass ( I played when...

    2027 OH OL Davis Seaman (Verbal Offer)

    Well, that would make it Watterson 2- Whetstone 0. Am wondering why the City League doesn't produce more Ohio State quality players. Parents fleeing to Dublin/Pickerington for better sports opportunities?

    2026 IL TE Mack Sutter (Alabama Verbal)

    Could work that way. Not saying I know anything, but...if tOSU has 'pots' of cash for every position group, and some was committed for Fordham, stands to reason that that allocation could be mingled with a new one to create a larger NIL for Sutter. Looks like the TE position will be depleted...

    Well, that added $200,000+ to his NIL package.....

    Stanford Cardinal (official thread)

    Meant to say three time zones versus two. Just got done looking at investments, and do indeed have more than several 'three baggers' present. Which means price is now 3x what it was purchased for.....Lived across freeway from SMU, and trust me, not a bunch of tea imbibed at that place, unless...

    C Ivan Njegovan (Official Thread)

    Well, the basketball in Croatia is still round, isn't it? Did a Croatian cruise last year, and quite a beautiful country. Since was a cruise, spent most of time on water, but 'what was told' is that Europeans are 'flocking' there to snarfle up some cheap(er) oceanside villas.

    C Josh Ojianwuna (Official Thread)

    Not entirely certain why, but am very much looking forward to this guy suiting up in scarlet & gray. Maybe he's that aircraft carrier we've been looking for, or not, but hoping that he's cleared (and gets into basketball shape) sooner than later.

    Game Thread #1 tOSU at Illinois, Sat. Oct. 11th, 12 pm ET, FOX

    Kinda got the feeling that if tOSU doesn't cover, the game is close (closer than expected by the pundits), then the Buckeyes will take a tumble in the standings. Just me being "Negative Nelly" once again. U of Miami seems to be the new shiny toy, and tOSU seems to rise after being ranked...

    2026 FL OL Micah Smith (UCLA Soft Verbal)

    Has he flipped yet? Or did the PSU win make him reconsider? Looks like he is a proto-type OL guy.

    This guy looks like he's in his 30's....

    Stanford Cardinal (official thread)

    Believe SMU was invited in to provide a 'mid-point' for the Left Coast teams to play in, rather than having to make a coast-to-coast airplane trip each and every week. Great idea actually, making it a two time zone flight rather than a three bagger.
