What really will be funny is if Moore decides not to hire a OC and continues to try to juggle running the offense along with all of his head coaching duties. We've seen how well that's worked out with Ryan Day, Day has a significant talent advantage over almost any team he faces though so it doesn't show in the W/L column for the most part. Moore definitely does not have that same advantage.

I don't think the ncaa hammer will come down for a couple years. Would be nice if it happened in this off season but I'm not holding my breath.

Don’t hold your breath waiting for the NCAA to do something.

It really is a miscarriage of justice what tOSU went thru for what would ultimately not only be legal but encouraged like a decade later compared to what they're gonna get for egregious, borderline felonious cheating. Fuckin shame.

An article interviewing Scam Webb for his thoughts (crickets). Embarrassing.
The hammer will come with NOA in 3-4 months and a finalization in maybe 8-9 months.
This is personal for the NCAA. It’s not just Harbaugh, but also how the administration handled the cheating.
There was no self-administered penalty for the Stalions stuff.

It lost credibility when the name Sam Webb was dropped. Lol

If the NCAA finds there was a lack of institutional control (e.g., Pete Carroll's case) or failure to monitor, that's level 1 and scUM will get hit hard. That's my understanding. We're waiting for NCAA to say "lack of institutional control."

The Covid year game opt out changed their football history.

The NOA for recruiting violations was issued 12/20/23. The response is due around 3/30/24. Hopefully, NCAA action on that one happens before the transfer portal opens in April.

Oh I totally agree, McCarthy was no world beater but he did everything they needed him to do right and didn't make stupid mistakes.

Now they are potentially rolling into 2024 with a guy who completed 48% of his passes his SR year of HS. I don't care how fast you are, if you can't present even somewhat of a throwing threat, you are going to be a disaster as a major college QB in this day.

The OL is a way bigger concern than DFBIA wants to admit too. They aren't getting the transfer reinforcements this year that they got the last 2 years to shore up the holes guys leaving left. They are pretty much going to have to actually rely on guys they actually recruited who are so great that they kept getting transfer portal recruited over the last 2 seasons.

Also if Moore truly is a elite Oline coach, and the Oline didn't just take that next step because they knew exactly what the defense was doing. Losing him as the Oline coach should hurt.

Yes.

They’re going to find out first hand how tough it is to replace a QB that’s responsible with the football and a multiple year starter.

Let’s see them run the ball 75% of the time with no throwing game, a shell of an OL and no Blake Corum

I don't think Edwards works as well alone without Corum. Edwards certainly isnt bringing that gritty tackle busting short yardage presence that Corum did.

and they keep trying to hype Mullings lol as that guy (the Corum role), he only looked ok in 2023 when coming in after Corum AND Edwards ran the defense down. He looked terrible (2 YPC bad) in the time they gave him in 2022 when Corum was out.

 

[Redhawk]

I'm not ready to count The Game as a sure loss for them until Day can show me he's not 21st Century John Cooper. There's no excuses this year.

This post is triggering my PTSD. Pepperidge Farm remembers....

This I also believe. Had Ono shown some leadership instead of parading around as the world's greatest jock-sniffer, I think there might be a chance that the university gets Failure To Monitor as we did with Tressel. They blame it all on Simple Jim, Bonaduce, Partridge and Minter. Ono, however, painted them into a corner. Jesus, they're using their publicists right now to get the story out that the contract had the immunity clause. It has to be LOIC now.

He's genuinely fucking terrible at what he does. Another shining example of why sports journalism is so bad. Because people who aren't good at the job continue to do the job and lower the bar.

In fairness.... OSU has plenty of these morons too.

I mean he's actually great at what he does because he gets DFBIA eating out of the palm of his hand.

But objectively, yes he's awful.
