    2025 MI QB Bryce Underwood (ttun Verbal)

    Was thinking about the QB at Florida (?) or FSU, who was told as a freshperson that (whatever school) was terminating the NIL deal (reneging would be a better word, just not legalistic enough). Also the guy in Utah who is sitting out the season after same reneging. Have zero problem with...

    Ohio State Women's Basketball (2023-24 B1G CHAMPS)

    31 from Chance is way cool. Two headed monster, methinks. And Cotie and Taylor not untracked yet. Guess they're showing senior leadership by playing a 'filler' role(s) on the team, doing the little things. Seriously, enjoy having two scorers, did they play together, or sepately? Also, the...

    2025 MI QB Bryce Underwood (ttun Verbal)

    The sound you hear is my foot tapping, waiting for the NCAA do anything! let alone putting the hammer down on the Wolverweenies. Still waiting.....Just a comment on the TTUN NIL.....they raise one-time money, and while there might be a big start-up amount, keeping that pipeline flowing (from...

    HS Swim Team - any experience?

    Can only envision which town in the Sierras that was, Ord. We considered a move to Truckee, but sports were on a limited basis there, so didn't do it. When on way to work, got calls from secretary, telling me where accidents were (due to fog), and that if lived 'there', was clear. Said...

    Deaths Of Notable Sports Figures (R.I.P.)

    Glad there's historians alive and well on BP. Didn't know about that (5 years!?!) with the Domers, let alone the 8 years with the Zips. Thanks for clearing away my fog....

    Ohio State Men's Golf (Official Thread)

    Will be back in C'bus over Thanksgiving. Want to take wife and daughter to Clubhouse for lunch. Does anyone know if I could sneak in to see what the new (since I've been gone - over 40 years) golf practice 'place'? Went into the pro shop last visit, and staff was distinctly cool, bordering on...

    Deaths Of Notable Sports Figures (R.I.P.)

    Remember this guys as a wizard coach at Moeller. It seemed only right that he get elevated to the Notre Dame HC position, given that there was a pipeline of Moeller stars to ND at the time. Unfortunately, he never got traction in the college game, and lasted what, two years? Anyway, it seems...

    Ohio State Wrestling (2015/2017/2018 B1G Champs, 2015 National Champs, 2019 National Runners-up)

    Always gotta wonder what it is/was, if Blaze goes to PSU. Sanderson, NIL, teammates, rural trees? A kid like that is certainly not afraid of competition. Thanks for the update, grim though it may be.

    Jake Diebler (Head Coach)

    To the above poster, next to Indiana and Kentucky, Ohio has the third most basketball hoops on garages in the state. OK, my sample is Columbus, north end, Clintonville. Used to shoot hoops in the snow during my MBA time at Ohio State, trying to shake off mental anxiety. Shook the house too.

    Ohio State Women's Basketball (2023-24 B1G CHAMPS)

    When read that coach mention that he was going to wait until WNBA ended before filling the open Asst position, had hopes it'd be Katie. Guess it came true, no? Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. She's certainly got the coaching experience (at the pro level), as well as playing 'in the league'...

    #21 Ohio State vs. Youngstown St., Nov. 11 @ 6pm, BTN

    Wasn't able to see the Texas game, but did see the Penguins game. Hopefully this team carries everything we saw forward into B10 play. Looked like the bigs were head hunting, looking for the blocks. Which we haven't seen for awhile. Even liked the chemistry passing the ball, although the...

    P Nick McLarty (Official Thread)

    Had to look deeep to find McLarty. Anyone know what's what? Got the pub about him punting the ball 90+ yards out of the yard. Fascinating, yet he hasn't seen the field this year. Does he scatter the ball alot? Slicing the ball out of bounds for a 15 yard punt certainly won't help him see...

    Higher Ed. firings and resignations

    Too hard for me to compare Steve and Ord's examples. Am viewing as undergrad vs grad schools. Doubtful whether undergrad schools pull in many donor dollars - or research subsidies, as compared to the graduate programs. And tOSU is a pyramid, bigger at the base (undergrad), and smaller at the...

    HS Swim Team - any experience?

    Not certain how track meets run, but swim meets are a different animal. Events are spread between individuals, and between strokes. In other words, you don't run the 50 free, 100 free, 200 free, 500 free all together. Don't forget relays, which utilize multiple team members. Cannot really...

    Random pictures of the day

    Dubs, believe that anything in the LA basin has two commas in it's value. Daughter wants to move back to LA (went to school at BIOLA), but pointed out that she cannot afford to rent there, much less buy. She's in a townhouse in C'bus that we own, and has gone up in value about $125k since...

    Higher Ed. firings and resignations

    Remember that tOSU did something like reduction in offerings couple of decades ago. Cut out 'Eskimo studies' or somesuch, losing a chair, various profs, which were all there for about 22 students. Memories fuzzy certainly, but there wasn't much of a clamor when this occurred. In education...

    WNBA

    Not to take anything away from the ones that went before, the Lieberman's, the Cheryl's, etc. although it seems like there's a big bulge of talent in last year's class, considerably more than one or two superstars per year. Brink was doing great, CC, and even Jacy earned starting spots as the...

    Ohio State Men's Tennis (2014/2019/2024 ITA Indoor National Champs, 17 Straight B1G Titles)

    Thanks Script. Was thinking maybe dreamed that. Shoulda realized that gracel had uncovered this bon mot. Maybe these guys will be the mortar between the building blocks of tOSU tennis?

    WNBA

    Kinda surprised that hearing the league is $40m+ in the hole. Watching all the stadia when CC played, it looked like most were filled, and read about moving to another venue, which was larger? Flying private is expensive, but certainly not enough to cost $40m. Anyway, not nitpicking the...

    Game Thread Purdue at tOSU, Sat. Nov. 9th, 12pm ET, FOX

    Actually surprised, as blow-outs are the toughest games to call. If it's close, then there are 'quickie' analyses to make, but with lopsided scores, then the announcers need to come up with interesting fillers (to fill the time). Usually these clowns talk about 'the way things were' back in...
