Yeah- Well nevermind that.
Quick tip though...
If you're stuck at work, and don't want to run the risk of scraping a fix off your boss's new BMW 6 series... I'm eating some Skittles right now... and they are kind of like the same way to paint chips as methadone is to heroin... if you know what I mean by that... because I really don't.

Woody wore Sambas
If Bollman is gone we kill two birds w/ one stone. Peterson moving to coach the OL is not a bad idea-the guy got results and produced studs at Miami. As far as a new OC goes-I just can't see Tressel hiring some flavor of the month hotshot from out West w/ a gaudy resume from the WAC. I think he deals with the OL issue, and gives everything else another year on offense. Getting a new RB coach besides his brother might be a good idea as well....
Another question to ask is-isn't Mel Tucker the co-DC? With the abysmal safety play, maybe he should be taking some heat along w/Snyder. In general though, I say agree w/ those who say stick Snyder's ass in the booth and leave him and the D alone for a year.....

Do not read this title
There has been a lot of talk about zone blocking and how it can be effective. Well - those of you are right - it can be - but I dont see how it can the way we do it.
For starters, generally the zone blocking scheme is better when your OL aren't quite as dominant. Having Orlando Pace in zone blocking is like having Picasso paint houses. When you have guys like that - its better to use drive blocking and let them blow the DL off the ball. Zone blocking is more "read and react". The idea is to let the DL move, and then use his momemtum to push him out of the play or to create holes. The kicker with this is that it requires space - ie - larger splits between the linemen. Using zone blocking with small spilts just creates a mass of humanity and no holes - kinda exactly what we have been seeing for the last.....three years? If you dont believe that our OL are close, just look at how many times JZ has tripped over an OLs foot that wasnt the center.
Minnesota uses zone, and take a look at how wide their splits are. In my opinion, our OL are way to close to use zone.

Does Joe Daniels go to these games?
Asked if Zwick would remain No. 1 on the depth chart regardless of how Smith played Saturday, Daniels hesitated. "I don’t know. . . . Good question, we’ll wait and see," he said. "Justin did a lot of good things. The unfortunate thing is some of the other aspects weren’t there — the run game wasn’t there and at various times (the pass) protection wasn’t there.

You kids stay off my lawn!
Defense?
Zeesh, I thought we had something going regarding the Zwick - Smith switch, but it went down hill in hell of a name calling, mindless exchange hurry.
I thought the Defense was going to be the glue that held this year's team to gether. Now I'm beginning to wonder. They had that deer-in-the-headlights look against Northwestern, played well against Wisconsin in the first half and then got pushed all over the place by Iowa.
Are they worn out?
Could be given the total inability of the offense to get beyond three and out.
Are they nicked up?
Can they get back to being a "typical Buckeye defense" by the time Michigan rolls into town?

There are really just a few things that need changed that would greatly improve our team....
1. Find a offensive line
2. Find a defensive line
3. Find a running back of big ten caliber.
Thats right folks, lets learn to run block and get someone to carry the ball and also stop the run and we will win the majority of our games next year, if we had just a chance we could run the ball, defenses wouldnt stack the line and force Zwick/Smith to throw, they would have to play us even, which would really help our mediocre (right now) quarterbacks....one more thing....
HIRE A REAL OFFENSIVE LINE COACH AND OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR......!!!!!

Anthrax Scare at OSU (just some levity guys)
The Ohio State University football practice was delayed nearly two hours yesterday after a player reported finding an unknown white powdery substance on the practice field.
Head Coach Jim Tressel immediately suspended practice while Columbus police and federal investigators were called to investigate.
After a complete analysis, FBI forensic experts determined that the white substance unknown to the players was the goal line.
Practice was resumed after special agents decided the team was unlikely to encounter the substance again.
