Bryce "L" Underwood (QB ttun, for now)

Human blobfish Biff Poggi said he's Batman. wtf does that mean in the context of football? Is he strong? Say he's Superman. Is he fast? Say he's Flash. How do Batman's skills translate to football? He uses his detective skills to....throw interceptions? He uses his gadgets to help......overthrow 5 yard routes?

Why are they so idiotic in everything they say and do?
More like Robin.

Have seen several write-ups featured, that tell of a Xichigan alum crucifying Underwood as a QB. Anyone read ? Sounds like click-bait. Maybe expectations were a tad high here?
No, It wasn't a TCUN alum, it was Eric Weddle who is a Utah guy. Weddle also has a kid who he wants to be a 4 star QB (kid is more of a running back apparently) but after attending a spring practice, he saw exactly what anyone not being a TCUN kool-aid drinker saw....Underwood sucks, has no fundamentals and hasn't been working hard to fix anything.

Seems like a perfect spot to use one of my favorite gifs. :-)

And I agree with your opinion, man!

Agree to all the above, but folks, that's the nature of college football nowadays. Big bucks to unproven kids, and hope they are worth it. Certainly, it's let's buy them all, and applaud the few that actually rise to the top. Of course you have to have a deep pocket, and not be afraid to use it.

Good point. Ohio State hasn't been burned, yet, by any busts. But have we had any busts, recently?

Interesting piece to the thread. What defines a 'bust'? Not living up to expectations? According to the Buckeye fanatics, losing any game, or not winning the national championship by definition is a 'bust'. Agree that when you pay these dudes piles of money to come aboard for junior/senior/grad year, and they don't start, make 100 tackles or catch 70 passes or run for a zillion yards, then they might qualify. My truth be told, if a guy comes aboard, and doesn't start, not get significant minutes, nor perform (the above part of this thread might be a tad overstated), then maybe. Guess it amounts to expectations. The LT from Rice was VHT, and couldn't crack the two-deep. Yet he got drafted by the pros...rereading this, appears I'm rambling, so will close. But we all look at these kids, probably more highly paid than the kids that have slogged through for three+ years, and if they don't walk on water, then....

Former Ohio State linebacker Steele Chambers drops truth bomb about Bryce Underwood​

While appearing on the Bobby Carpenter Show, Chambers gave his thoughts on Underwood as a quarterback.

"You've got all the evidence from games last year where he didn't perform. "You've got Michigan fans that were cannibalizing him right after the spring game, before Eric Weddle ever brought these comments up, and now you've got a legitimate Hall of Famer player really confirming all that stuff that Michigan fans were talking about. It's not looking good for him, but whatever. Buckeyes."

Obviously, Chambers is a biased observer when talking about this. He will always talk trash about Michigan when given the opportunity. However, he is right.....:biggrin: TTUN fans were worried about Underwood's development after he had a poor performance at the spring game.

Bryce Underwood shouldn't have chased the money​

Before Underwood decided to flip his commitment from LSU to TTUN, Underwood was asked why he didn't pick Michigan, despite being from the state. Underwood went on to say that Michigan doesn't develop quarterbacks. Then, TTUN offered him a boatload of money, and he changed his tune....:lol:

It's pretty clear that he made the wrong decision picking the Wolverines. Had he stayed with the Tigers, he could have gotten some better coaching. TTUN hasn't developed a good quarterback, really, ever in their history. Tom Brady was a sixth-round pick, so it's not like Michigan helped him out.

The OL from Rice was as close as I can think of.

A couple of transfers have been underwhelming but I wouldn't call them "busts".
... and even that one apparently was good enough to be drafted... 7th round, granted, but still got drafted after riding pine for a year. Bit of a head scratcher, but I have to imagine that it was entirely based on measurables.
