That’s what I assumed. But he came down kind of awkward on his arm. He didn’t appear to be favoring it though.

Looked like he got hurt on the final play after taking Hartman to the ground. Hopefully nothing serious.

Yeah I know you attended Hoban and love it still. My younger cousin was played with him at Hoban and they became basically best friends. Chip is a regular at our family functions. I’ll be your vice president of the Chip fan club. Since you guys share alma maters, I’ll defer lol.

I don’t know, you have some stiff competition lol.

He has been laying the lumber this year. Those ND RB’s are going to remember him.

I can’t remember the sequence of events correctly, but did he take his headset off after Emeka caught the ball at the one or did he take it off after the 1st and goal incompletion? How funny would it be if they were trying to tell him but he just didn’t have the headset on to hear them?

I had the spread at 3 points. Why do you hate me?

The Jack position (or LEO as he called it at Ok. State) depends on how it’s deployed. Some plays it’s a guy on the edge either rushing or they drop him into coverage. Or it’s a guy in the middle of the defense creating an extra level that the offense has to account for. See the below video for...

Wow. Had no clue. I remember hearing he moved, and when I figured OSU wasn’t really pursuing him I kind of stopped paying attention.

He moved back to Ohio?

I’m not sure Johnson is a fan of the “spill and kill” defensive philosophy. It effectively takes the DL out of the play. A lot of times, the DE’s job is simply to crash inside to leave players in the second level unblocked. It’s unconventional and cuts the opportunities for plays by the DL, but...

A lot of what you said is true. I just don’t agree that “he can’t strike a balance between rushing the passer and gap responsibilities.” That’s not some complex thing to teach. Other players flash when rushing the passer. Who in the last 2 years do you feel like should’ve been a dominant pass...

Oh no, I’m not meaning the ND game at all. I knew Joe Alt and Blake Fisher were going to be the real deal. They are undoubtedly the best OT duo OSU will see all season. PSU has an outstanding tackle, but the other side isn’t as good as Fisher. To me, as the game wore on the DE’s were a little...

Mitchell Melton and Kenyatta Jackson should be in for every single obvious passing situation. I don’t know or care who they put on the bench for it, but they’re clearly the two best pass rushers on the team.

“He doesn’t know how to balance an effective pass rush with gap responsibilities” is pretty funny. So all these years of being a DL coach, he’s only coached one or the other? So when the Bosas or Chase or Hubbard or anybody he’s coached that was a great pass rusher, did he not coach them gap...

An elite DE and an elite pass rusher are not mutually exclusive. I think JT is elite at everything except pass rushing. Same as Cam Heyward when he was here. Not saying JT is as good as Cam Heyward. But he’s more Cam than he is Chase.

When did Larry Johnson forget how to coach? Or could it just be that our DE’s aren’t good pass rushers?

Who said people can’t be skeptical of coaching? Where did you pluck that from? When the team isn’t playing as well as people think they should, this board is very active with folks saying anything negative. Predicting 4 losses, calling for players to be benched, coaches fired, etc. We had...

Some people on this board could stand to do so too. And not just about Kyle.

For the most part, they are. Spill and kill is Knowles’ preferred method of defending the run. Muddy up the interior make them bounce outside and let the unblocked LBs or the DB’s make the tackle. That’s why safeties are so important to this defense. Being able to trigger downhill fast but still...
