    RB Lamar "Bo" Jackson (All B1G)

    Don't have any problem with the projection, but cannot really see three Buckeyes splitting votes, with one of them being Heisman winner. Most teams bemoan having two players in the running, let alone three. Don't get me wrong, would love to see it, but the law of large numbers kinda implies...

    Name, Image, & Likeness (NIL) at tOSU

    Interesting thread. Wondered if Nike was asked to help out on DGG, like 'word has it' that Tennessee asked their sponsor for some bucks for their NIL pot. Or anyone else for that matter. Would make economic sense, and is another income source to consider.

    RB Legend Bey (Official Thread)

    Given the above, maybe Smith will add a 'halfback toss' play. Have the halfback get hand-off, run into the flat, and then heave it downfield to WRs when the DBs come up to stop his run.....

    How's the weather?

    It's called 'lack of water'. Back then, plenty of snow, which was stored in the Sierra Mountains. When warm weather came, snows melted and ergo the rivers ran high. Able to be stored, and used. Not so much today. The 5 is full of dried up trees, stone fruit, nuts whatever, because the farms...

    Deciding When to Retire

    Bravo. You're entirely correct. One is merely a piece of meat in the machine. Lots of good ideas above, although hopefully full of things one would 'like to say', but not really say. As a hiring agent, always ask why left last position. Some answers are real doozies. But when one checks...

    How's the weather?

    Well, here in Cali, just another 106+ day. After a round of golf, going into the club house, and the AC there, makes the sweat freeze. Had an unseasonal 'rain storm' last week, got just enough raindrops that it attracted the swirling dust, and created dirty cars. Would take some of that...

    '27 OH PG Joshua Tyson (Verbal Offer)

    Ohio has always had good basketball players, getting them to stay in-state has been a problem. Now, it appears that Diebs is getting that to happen. Love it, and hope we see more of it. My fervent wish is that tOSU basketball (men and women) would get the populace to react like Buckeye...

    TN RB David Gabriel Georges (Tennessee Verbal)

    Would it be considered negative recruiting if tOSU had DGG sit down and watch the recent UT v tOSU playoff game? Maybe show clips of tOSU DL pounding the snot out of their QB? Plus holding UT's RB to under 80 yards? Guess that would depend on which side of the field one sits on.....

    2028 OH OL Anthony Blalock (Alabama Verbal)

    So you're implying that Bama might have sweetened the agent's pot, beyond what the recruit owes him for services rendered? Probably wouldn't be the first time a player has been 'directed' to a team. Doesn't sound like 'free enterprise' agency.

    Talk about a sucker punch.....any inside poop?

    TN RB David Gabriel Georges (Tennessee Verbal)

    Have migrated from the 'anxious as heck' to whatever. I like the stable of RBs currently on roster, but acknowledge that DGG might be special. tOSU has had more than our fair share of RBs that made good history. Except for Troy, all of our Heisman winners were RBs. tOSU will be fine whatever...

    2027 AL DL Karlos May is a Buckeye!!!

    Well, if the football thingy doesn't pan out, he's got a career as a bouncer....

    2028 MA QB Christopher Vargas is a Buckeye!!!

    Probably just me, but the 'bag' (as Thump so aptly names) for a 5* QB might not be so generous so far out from signing. Just wondering how the colleges handle that. Maybe, 'we'll take the top five, average their NIL, and give you the average + $100,000'? It seems like he has the arm strength...

    2028 tOSU Recruiting Discussion

    As the old adage goes, life is not a sprint, it's a marathon. Ergo, one has to do it once, and then again, and again, and so forth. Maybe like a band's first #1 tune, then nothing? A one hit wonder. Go Bucks

    2026-27 Ohio State Men's Basketball

    Have played tennis on clay, composite, and grass. Doubt you could put artificial floor on grass would certainly ruin it. Clay OK, composite (where 95% of tennis is played (?) great. PS, grass is very much harder to play on. Ball doesn't bounce, it skitters. Clay, ball is slowed down, and...

    2026-27 Ohio State Men's Basketball

    Thought most bball floors were removable, in as much as could host rock shows, ice hockey or whatever. And those floors are springy, as floor sits on on edge 2/4s. Grew up on blacktop bball courts, and can vouch they are NOT springy. And hurt when you fall down. I was going to say "watch out...

    WR Mylan Graham (National Champion, transfer to Notre Dame)

    Well, maybe a fresh start at a different place will work out for him. Good for him, until the Domers face the Buckeyes in the playoffs. My Dad was a ND and SC hater, and guess it was passed down to me. He gave me a ND/tOSU poster with Eddie running free for a TD, and had it framed, and is on...

    PG Bruce Thornton (All-B1G, All-American, 4X Captain, tOSU all time scoring leader, Houston Rockets)

    Was wondering if anyone else saw the Summer League game. Vignettes of Bruce putting up some points. I didn't identify him right away, and then poof was gone. Looked like he was draining 3's, and driving the rack for a couple 'and-ones'. Love to see it. Also noted he wasn't the PG, more...

    The Jerome Schottenstein Center (Official Thread)

    Could be just me, but was/am of the opinion that 'naming rights' is transitory. In other words, you pay X to have your name there, but after, what, five years? Then the rights are used up and unless there's a continuation clause in the contract, tOSU can go out for another round of bidding...
