I think you can buy them from Ronald.....

......they are $5 each; however, "hot" females just might get an unlimited number of free tickets for "services rendered". :biggrin:

McDonalds started selling them last year as they became the "exclusive quick service restaurant sponser" for Ohio State (what ever that means). See links:

That reminds me.. I'd like to go to a practice. Do they have any open practices? Sorry, I'm out of the loop when it comes to stuff like that.

No. They aren't even allowing the media in for 30 min of stretching right now...

I'm not going to lie, I don't know many players on your team this year besides the big names and Pryor.

But I am interested to see how you guys do.

Honestly I want a rematch of our '06 BCS Championship game. I think it would be a great game and despite the fact I'm a Gator fan it would be a tossup.

Who are some of the other players on this Ohio State team I should know about?

Thanks.:)

You've heard of Chris Wells right? :tongue2:

I would answer this, but I hear about most of the starters every day. So I'm fairly biased. I'd say Chris Wells, James Laurinaitis and Malcolm Jenkins are the three most talked about in the media. But we have a fantastic group of players this year. So I feel bad only mentioning three.

Thanks. I thought I remembered hearing someone talk about an open practice, but I probably just misheard.

To us Buckeye fans, the following names won't be a surprise. And I still feel bad for leaving everyone else off! Haha

Brandon Saine
Brian Hartline
Cam Heyward
Marcus Freeman - no idea why this guy gets no publicity.
The entire offensive line. Last year we had arguably the best offensive line in college football. We lost Kirk Barton, but have some MAJOR talent coming in.

And everyone above my post. :biggrin:

Well assuming you've heard of the most well-known Buckeyes, here are some you might not have heard of, but could make a big impact.

Antonio Henton- Our backup QB last year who will make a serious push to start, and even if he doesn't, he might get some gadget plays for him.

Brandon Saine- Our #3 RB last year. He runs something like a 10.35 100m and is pretty damn huge. He could split out and play some slot, some RB, get a screen thrown to him.. All sorts of stuff. He can run around you or through you, and if not for an injury last year he would have done a lot more.

Brian Hartline- Our WR's didn't get a whole lot of publicity last year, except for Robo, but Hartline is a real burner and he could get some serious yardage.

Ray Small- Also a real burner, and he has shown flashes of brilliance. IMO the only way he doesn't have a big year next year is if he has off-field problems.. Which may very well be the case :(

Marcus Freeman- A linebacker who is unfortunate to be in the shadow of Laurinaitis. Really all of our LB's are amazing but him & Laurinaitis make probably the best linebacking duo in the country.

Any of our young DB's- We have a good amount of youth in the secondary.. Chimdi Chekwa has a chance to become huge next year but we have all sorts of talent there.


Hopefully that's what you were looking for. I can give you some more names if you want but I don't want to bore you too much :) .
