Yikes... Nuttier than a pecan pie! Nuttier than BuckNutty! :slappy:

20-30 pounds certainly isn't unheard of going from a senior in high school to freshman year in college. A lot of physical maturation happens during that time in addition to being charged with a college lifting program after season and over the summer (of course depends on his high school staff...
FYI, the previous numbers are for starters, but the average overall is DE $1,615,340 and OLB $1,102,985 (disparity of about $500,000). May be skewed for the sake of this conversation considering Vern will be a rookie, but he is also projected by many as the #2 DE in the 2008 NFL Draft (that...
Yes you do. You claimed the average LB in the NFL "is at least 10lbs heavier than 240." I provided links so you could read my homework. ;)
You should read up on D-Linemen in a 3-4 scheme. Typically, the DL in a 3-4 are man eaters- meaning they consume space and bodies freeing up the LBs and...
We'll see, and of course we're all entitled to our views. I just think they're different types of players. Not better or worse, just different. I wouldn't lean too heavily on those 40 times though. The forty has long been argued as a bad way to measure a football player's speed. However, no...
It is not his choice as to which position he'll play.
Your views are skewed.
Please quit speaking about a subject without doing homework. In addition, please enlighten me as how he was used in space at Ohio State... news to me. He was flex out in a two? I missed that. :shake: Could've...
I'll have very few here that will agree, but I think the draw with Keith isn't the player he is now. He's pretty sloppy, really. It's the player he can be (potential). He's athletic, or he wouldn't be making those plays. But it takes some time to get the footwork and football IQ in order to...
Not his choice, man. This isn't the first day of pee wee football.
I certainly understand what is being said, I just don't think Vern is that type of player. Some players, like JL, tend to move very well across the field and can play in space. Other guys are space consumers and are more...
I'm sorry, I don't see it. The transition from DT to DE, DE to OLB, OLB to F/SS, or F/SS to corner just isn't a possibility most of the time. I think you've been smokin' the rock... :)
And we're not talking about Vrabel here- the average linebacker in the NFL is about 240. Big Vern is...
I'm aware of that, but (right or wrong) I don't really consider any of the FBs a FT starter considering none stood out head and shoulders in either playing time or impact. Very good players, don't get me wrong, but we had three rotating and both D. Johnson and Whaley were walk-ons (I believe...
Potential drafted Buckeyes, 2009 (depending on who declares plus graduates):
The "O"-
Boeckman
C. Wells
Mo Wells
Robiskie
Hartline
Small (with a good season)
Nicol/Ballard
Boone
Rehring
Cordle
PersonThe "D"-
Denlinger (at least one of the DTs, anymore might be a stretch)
Worthington
Abdallah...
Way to go JL! What an unselfish (and, I guess selfish at the same time) thing to do! Bring those 121 tackles plus in next year and bring one home for the ages as one of the best Buckeye teams of all time!
We lost 12 starters last year and made it back to the BCS NC Game, and we're losing three...
