And Carter. ('though legacies should always be respected)

What a monster! You don't often see linemen absolutely dominate a game, but Garrett did -- against a great program, with an amazing winning streak on the line. Can't wait to see him plow folks into the new turf at the 'Shoe. [Is it just me, or is it starting to smell like Football!?]

'Deep down inside' Willis should just shut up and be glad he's still got a football career after the hit Will Allen put on him. I hope this bitter pill sticks in his throat well into old age. He's just another woulda-coulda-shoulda little wuss from 'the U'. Legends in their own minds. Now...

The thing I hope Cordale (and other Ohio stars) keep in mind while they go through the recruitment process is their life after football -- and what playing at tOSU offers them in their later years compared to playing for an out-of-state school. No state offers a brighter future to its...

With all due respect, Capo [and fully aware that I am taking my life in my hands by challenging a Moderator/Administrator]... I think I know the meaning of the word 'gift' in the English language and I think I know exactly how and why you used it. I am simply suggesting that offering a...

Some in this discussion are referring to an offer to Saddler as a 'gift' while others claim he'd sit on the bench for 5 years, as if he is totally unqualified. That's simply not true. He's a very gifted athlete. And he happens also to be an excellent student. We should leave machismo [he's too...

If Saddler were from Ohio, he'd be about our 19th or 20th best player. In roughly the same league, though admittedly smaller, as Akron Buchtel athlete Johnny Adams. Hypothetically then, would you have the staff take Johnny Adams in order to also get Hale? I think I might. But it would be a...

See Bucknuts.com - Are Bucks Still In The Running For Wells? An optimist could interpret that as tOSU getting the last visit with a chance to uproot whoever he commits to this summer. A pessimist, like me, might think Keith's just telling Ohio recruiting writers what he thinks they want to...

Even if we get Pryor, it's unlikely he would have done enough on the field as a true Freshman to scare off other highly talented QBs -- particularly not one who is #27's cousin. I really like this possibility. Thanks for starting up the thread. This one should be fun to watch for the next...

I think the best news about Jeff's trip to tOSU is that he's bringing his Mom. With a father who played at A&M, the only way he's going to get out of Texas is with Mom's full, enthusiastic blessing. So in addition to the Brew Crew being there, I hope the parents of some OOS commits are...

JT is doing it exactly right and his record proves it. The poll is merely a conceit to get this discussion underway. Thanks to LJB for that. IMHO the "JT can't close" nonsense results from high profile recruits, mainly from out of state, who announce late in the process (at the Army AA game...

A classy young man from an obviously very classy family joins the Buckeyes. God's in His heaven and all's right with the world! XP, wherever you are, congratulations to you for helping Garrett make this most important decision of his young life. In the end, Garrett says he went with his...

A belated comment on the piece linked and synopsized by LJB: Point #1: Garrett says he will listen carefully to the advice of family (as any intelligent young man should); in particular, to the counsel of his Uncle Brian. Point #2: We know that at least one person reasonably close to Garrett...

The act of writing, whether it's a novel or a news article, is in and of itself 'creative'. I think XP was merely using the term 'creative work' as a synonym for 'article' or 'piece' -- other terms often used to describe work written/created by journalists. In that case, XP's usage was...

Anybody heard anything new about Terrelle Pryor recently?

XP -- Keep your chin up, partner. You have much to be thankful for. Back injuries are always painful, but some can be crippling. From your description of your recovery, it sounds like you'll be back to normal once the pain subsides. Just keep your pharmaceuticals handy and don't push your luck...

That's when it's not on fire. It's also a balmy 2000 miles from TP's home, family and friends. No small consideration.

And it's really unlikely that an injury would cost him his scholarship. That's not JT's way of doing business. Just ask Brian Hartline. That said: Hop on board, DJ. It's going to be a great ride!

Guess when a kid wears a scUM logo keychain around his neck everyday, we should pay heed. Good luck, Kevin.

My bad. I should have said "DL" instead of "DT". My point would have been essentially the same, but not quite as precise. Good catch.
