Throw out everything I've ever said about scouts being less biased than fans, when it comes to Lemming. He doesn't even pretend anymore.

My guess is that Story already has the "inside scoop" on our next WR coach. He seemed a little extra secretive about he and Tressel's conversation. Would YOU let a big time recruit off campus without letting him in on your plans for his future position coach?

I hope Sam finds fulfillment and is able to pursue his interests, wherever he goes. Once a Buckeye...

But with Crowell, Shazier, and Price already on board, we're playing with the house chips. :biggrin2: It's great to be a Buckeye fan during the "Golden Age".

It takes a special person to put his life on the line for what he believes in, and the people he loves. So many have lost their lives for this cause, and this is further proof that sacrifice doesn't begin and end in the battlefield. You all have the respect and appreciation of those of us who...

Re: Grant...On Scout, it's been suggested that he's a bit too "bulked up" and it's affecting mobility. That affects his stock as a shutdown one-on-one corner, which Ohio State won't ask him to be. We'll take advantage of his discipline, ability to read plays, and ball skills. Playing on an...

For what it's worth, people with pretty close ties to Aaron didn't know what to expect, this year. He's a small school kid on a SUPER talented and successful AAU team. Even the can't-miss prospects aren't always projected well to the college game...Aaron Craft was an enigma wrapped in a mystery...

I'm not offended by the ratings at all. I don't believe that a prospect gets downgraded JUST because they commit to Ohio State. There are always some big shake ups after all-star games, because big talent gets thrown into the fire together and the winner rises to the top. I think ratings are a...

Note: I posted this as a response to some threads on other Buckeye sites. I haven't seen much outrage on this site over the rankings...yet.

Understanding Bias in Sports (Part II - Recruiting Rankings) As some of you know, I tend to harp on the subject of "bias" in sports. I find it fascinating to observe fans of a team, in which I am not emotionally invested, and analyze their reactions to big news (positive or negative). It's...

I have a few issues, here. Fundamental issue with the striping. I THINK they were trying to get some brand consistency with the football team, but they needed to switch the gray and scarlet stripes to achieve it properly. The jersey top striping it too '86 Mets-ish. Not a huge fan of the...

I live in Findlay and things don't get too exciting around here. I know some people really close to Aaron, and have heard them talking about him since he was in junior high. In response to many of their claims, I make up Aaron Craft "facts", in the same style of the now-famous Chuck Norris...

You belong to Tressel.

The more things change... I feel like a complete n00b around here, again. I've logged on almost daily, read a few things and have almost posted several things. I just keep getting those n00b post jitters and pressing "cancel". I would've been much less worried about posting things of...

Do we start to think about banking a few 'ships to supplement a thin class next year, if we don't manage to fill all our '11 spots with commits from the Walker, Grant, Vaughters, Price, Jennings (also Keith Wells) group?

Glad to be one of your many aliases. It's about time you brought me back! ...danged chippers.

...and a Happy New Year!

Doing pretty good. I'm married and have a young daughter. Expecting another child (gender to be discovered next week) soon. As you can guess, time is increasingly short. "Back" is a relative term...I plan on being around and probably posting every now and then. We'll see how much it sucks me in...

I just have a feeling that Hazell's ascencion up the coaching ladder, will coincide quite nicely with a potential future coaching search. He could very well be a hot commodity, down the line, when we're looking. I think he's a perfect fit. A great coach, recruiter, liked by players, from the...

Thanks, bro! I've got a little catching up to do over here. How's life been for the past four years?
