Hope noboby calls me a dipstick for this, but here's the facts as I know them:
1. Jones should spend a lot less time with the national media and more time recruiting (especially defensively), if he wishes to run with the big dogs.
2. To play at the elite level, you need three phases of the game to be in it. Facing teams with equal or superior athletes, special teams become even more of a factor. Look at last night - two missed FG's and a returned KO for a touchdown. Think that wasn't a factor in the end?
3. If you want to bring pressure defensively, you better have some quality DB's, especially at corner.
4. Good defenses have more than one talented pass rusher. Other than Alabama, UH had not seen a team with multiple talented pass rushers. Brennan saw more heat last night than he had seen in quite a while.
5. One can be passionate about tOSU, even without having attended the school or a game. It will be tough to find anyone out there who bleeds scarlet and gray more than Mililani.
6. Had Jones not made this comment, and there are many here who rolled their eyes when he did, this discussion would not be taking place.
7. UH has a solid team this year. Ohio State has an exceptional team this year. I hope like hell that this is reflected on January 8.
8. Let's not leave rmjones25 hanging -
