Well medical issues caused McVey, Crowell, Hagan, Jamel Turner and now Mitchell to leave the team.

Whiting, Newsome, Bell and Perkins all got booted for displaying some goonish tendencies. The latter three won postseason honors in 2013.

Ejuan Price bailed after JT got fired. He'll be a 30+ career start guy when he's done, albeit at Pitt.

Luke Roberts decided to leave and go to Harvard.

Not a ton of foreseeable circumstances here.

The two that finished from those classes are Klein and Shazier.

And Shazier left early (albeit for the NFL). But still, only one linebacker to stay for the full 4 years out of 5 classes? Unreal.

In the interest of clarity, I did not include Zach Boren, Jamal Marcus or David Durham in the above count.

Look at the previous five year-run from 2004-2008:
15 commits
12 completed eligibility/left for NFL
8 drafted
3 fell by the wayside

What started happening in 2009 when the same coach has been responsible for a decade? Something's are just happenstance, as much as we hate it.

My fear is that the decisions Meyer has made with coach Fickle will lead to the undoing of Meyer at Ohio State in a couple of years and will lead to a terrible decade of Ohio State football after that.

I actually fear it could lead to a collapse of the world banking system. And possibly the second, and permanent, disappearance of Twinkies from grocery shelves.

Fickell is just going to be fine, now that he has Larry Johnson and Chris Ash backing him. Too many of us have been pointing fingers
at Fickell for the demise of our defensive shortcomings. Shit happens in some aspects of the game. And we have to just deal with it.
Its part of the game. Just give Johnson and Ash a chance to do their thing this year and I think we will see a big improvement. No Fear here Wham.
