Hopefully this makes things better. But I have to worry about things if I am an incoming offensive recruit and if somehow OSU gets close to the top 4 next year, they won't even get a glance thanks to this performance.

I actually did that once . . . and I wasn't even drunk. Woke up in the middle of the night with stomach flu, tried to run to the john before I puked, puked on the way there, slipped in it, and was lying there naked in my own vomit, fully aware, with a bruised tail bone. It basically felt about like what I'm feeling right now.

It seems like the 'no criticizing the staff' rule has been temporarily waived for this thread, so I'm on to 2017 and I have some thoughts.

We need to change this offensive coaching staff - plain and simple.
I don't care how well you recruit. If the only thing you can do is recruit, you don't deserve to more than a position coach at OSU. You definitely do not get to be in charge of the entire offense. Otherwise, you coast through the regular season against Indiana and Purdue and get waxed by the first team you play that is both talented and well-coached (aka Clemson).

1. Tim Beck - seriously, what was Urban thinking? Dude was fired from Nebraska for sheer incompetence. Taylor Martinez had to hire his own personal QB coach over the summer, which is why he was always great at the beginning of the season and regressed as the season went on. Did anyone like this move when it happened?

2. Warriner - great guy, amazing OL coach, but as I mentioned a long time ago in an earlier thread, why exactly did we move him from his natural position to something new (and which he's never had success at)? Why change a winning formula? Mind-blowing. Just why?

3. Zach Smith - the receivers have been simply awful and there has been almost no development over the past few years, with the sole exception being Michael Thomas. I'm not sure if it is talent, scheme or coaching but something has to change. Especially when we're trying to compete against teams like Alabama that line even their QC staff with former head coaches.

Alright. Apologies all, just had to get that off my chest.

There's a no bashing a kid rule, I don't think there is a no criticizing the staff rule. Good thing.

Where are the Beck defenders tonight? The guys that say it isn't an offensive play calling issue, let alone offensive scheme and game plan. It isn't like this could not be seen from anyone with a pulse as a possibility.

I am concerned that some of the recruits are going to starting second guessing that if they are a receiver etc, maybe OSU isn't that great of a place for a guy that wants to catch 70 balls and break 1000 yards.
