I’d somehow forgotten how much Urban loves to hear himself talk. :)

Here's my take on that lateral, fwiw: You don't even think about doing that if you're not a baller. If you're a game manager or only a pocket passer, that doesn't happen. That's great, for that one which, admittedly was ill-advised, but he didn't seem to do it out of panic and we will see...

This and also while he didn’t look to run first he showed that he can do it picking up that 3rd and 8.

Is there some penalty for covering the tight end? That’s an ongoing chronic problem.

Holy schnikies! Wtf? This kid is ridiculous.

Tangentially, I have a new dog, new since last season, with anxiety and she may not make it through the season.

Best QB RUN I remember.

Best QB I remember in awhile and a fucking quick throw to score. We’ve got our guy at QB.

For fuck’s sake, it’s AKRON.

We better get a lot better on both sides of the ball rather quickly.

They do seem dialed in and I think they understand that, at least this year, we don't "need" a Heisman-winning QB. We also don't need "just" a game manager, though. It seems to me that we've got what we need and the team understands it; a baller who can play up to and within the framework of...

I must say I didn’t see this one coming. Fired up (for a punter!?), but missed this one.

And, from what we’ve heard, TSC is all about the development. It takes some maturity to say, I’ll take a year or two, get really good and then blaze it up rather than walking in as QB1 and trying to learn on the job. As you say, he knows what the room looks like and it seems that’s why he’s...

Of late, it’s seemed (whether or not completely factual) like either we score from fifty out or we take a field goal and we’ve been schemed defensively for that. Howard and Judkins should help greatly with this.

Agreed, I think he can be a QB for whom the defense has to account out of the pocket, whether designed, RPO, or picking up yardage IF (big if) our receivers are covered, or there's a broken play. We haven't had or at least haven't used that luxury lately. Also, huge if he can be a legit goal...

Agreed, there was never any reasonable expectation that TSC would come in and start as a freshman. He'll likely compete with Noland for QB2 and whichever of them wins, outright or by default if the other transfers, will be next up after Sayin's done a couple of years as the starter.

This started with the expectation that Howard could be a bigger, faster Barrett and that this would be enough to run the table. Again, insert the appropriate JTB accolades, but you don't win in a 12-team playoff without being a better than solid passer and you don't win it with a JTB or...

Nobody can argue that JTB's not an all-time Buckeye, but you can also can't argue that he was a great passer and I doubt that he would. Although I loved them both, I don't think we win in 2014 with either Miller or Barrett. We had to have Jones to take the top off of defenses and give them...

I hope a taller, faster JTB isn't what we get and I don't expect to. JT was an all-timer, but was a liability as a passer and we only hit that next level with Day's offense with Haskins, followed by Fields and Stroud. I'd go with the aspirational characterization of Fields, maybe not as good a...

Simmons is the apt comparison at the moment, but I'm hoping for an Urlacher-type trajectory with him moving up from safety.
