Many signing-day recruits call the coaching staff the morning of, and let them know where they're committing.

To be fair, isn't that what it was pitched as originally? Regardless, he'll learn from it going forward. I'm not exactly worried about recruiting.

OSU's bigger than any recruit or set of recruits, period. It'd be great to get him, but we'll be fine without him as well.

Something something Belichick, something something coaching players you want to be around. Best of luck to Emory

Great point. I don't think we're saying anything that is mutually exclusive - if Georgia can keep even 1/2 their local talent at home, and put it all together for the first time in half a century, they will be an extremely formidable foe indeed. As you said, however, it is a big if

My biggest fear. A Georgia that holds on to its talent and is also capable of developing them properly, is a scary prospect indeed.

Way to miss my point. I've said that very thing more times than I can count. We have the talent to compete with anyone, and our best game is again up there with anyone. My whole point is that we almost never play 'our best game'. The one time this year we didn't consistently shoot ourselves in...

Again, I don't think any of those things are mutually exclusive. I always support this team. I went to school in the South after the great humblings of '07 and '08, and I still wore my Buckeye gear with pride. However, "supporting the team when they lose" certainly does not mean we shouldn't...

We'll simply have to agree to disagree. I wanted no part of the playoffs last year, and I certainly caught some flak for saying it at the time - but after the Clemson game many came around to my point of view. Regardless, my musings really have no effect on what happens behind locked doors...

It is 100% possible to still 'stand with the team' while pointing out areas for improvement. If we didn't do that, our current DC would be Everett Withers and our current OC would be Mr. Beck. Put simply - pointing out flaws is how we get better.

Not sure I agree fully with either of those points, but let’s move on.

'14: we ended the season strong and who can forget 59-0 '16 we were terrible against Penn State and were only in it because they kept gifting us the ball in their territory. Terrible against Michigan first half. Terrible against unranked MSU, won by 1 pt. Poor against unranked Northwestern...

You present no argument of your own, yet interestingly choose to call mine stupid. The committee will do what they want - what I say on this board has no effect on them or anyone. However, my personal preference is that we do not go this year. I am not arguing to the committee, I am arguing...

Anyways, time to sign off. I got a ton of flak on this site for voicing my opinions regarding JT's passing after Michigan last year, and us likely getting roasted in the playoffs last year. Time unfortunately proved me right on both counts. I hope that is not the case this year - only time...

Okay, let me spell it out again: OSU in 2014: a very good team that improved consistently by the end of the year, but dropped 1 early to VT OSU in 2016: a talented but mediocre team that consistently got worse over the season OSU in 2017: an extremely inconsistent team that got blown out...

As I said before - one loss last year didn't change our standing with the 2018 players, since we've been recruiting them for 4-5 years. But let me ask you this - what about 2 consecutive shut outs on a national stage? Do you truly think players in the classes of 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022...

Let me spell this out for you, really really clear: 1) Be Ohio State 2) Be extremely inconsistent but still end up winning the Big Ten 3) Get in the playoffs and get blown out for a second consecutive year, making 3 consecutive years for Big Ten teams to be embarrassed nationally 4) Be...

How about you pick up some reading comprehension? I was clearly referring to us getting in the playoffs and getting blown out. Not once did I mention us winning the Big Ten CCG

Do you care what the committee thinks when they decide who gets in the playoff? And would you care to guess what parts of the country the committee comes from?

Lol. Except we've been building relationships with many of the 2018 players for years - yeah, they likely won't be swayed by the most recent year. However, if you don't think two consecutive blowouts and being a national punchline after 31-0 will matter to future recruits - the current...
