Chantable, easy to spell, small enough for hastily scrawled signs, doesn't take up too many letters for the ransom note cut outs
This guy will do

One thing I’m pretty sure about - I’ll never be more favorable of his performance than today.

Any word if he will be the run game coordinator? Hartline and Day are pass centric and hopefully picked up some good stuff from Chip, but another mind for the run would be great.

I've been keeping the baseball bat, duct tape, garbage bags and shovel in the trunk of the car just in case,
Oh wait, did I just say that out loud?

I would presume that will happen given the rushing production in his offenses. We knew we needed that role with Frye and now we especially need it with Kelly gone, and Henderson and Quin off to the NFL.
Good news is we have plenty of great run blocking OL back in the interior and hopefully the portal OTs plug right in. Peoples is going to be an absolute stud and Donaldson was a good pickup in the Portal (lets not expect him to be the next Judkins though). So we need Bowen to come in and make sure the scheme is right for the group we have, which may simply be adopting what Kelly/Frye did in large part. I'm sure Bowen will bring his own flavor to the scheme though at the very least.

From what I've seen, that's the plan. Being a former OC provides a lot of versatility

All well and good, but I think some of the issues that Frye had on the trail was more to do with how OSU spends on NIL and how they prioritize. Bowen can legally adopt a kid, and if another program offers multi millions of dollars, a Lambo and a house, he will ask Uncle Bowen to come and watch him play for X university.

Uh, I think that’s a little revisionist history. The other big problem with Frye in recruiting is his utter lack of offers. That was a MAJOR issue many of us had. He narrowed in on a select few and left himself little room for error. Frye offered 19(2022), 15(2023) and 18(2024), for example. Most teams were offering at least 25-30 OL. I know the man just won an NC, and brought together a great OL. But the depth issues were of his doing. And Bowen was brought in to not continue that issue.
NIL out bidding will continually be a thing, but that’s why you send out more offers and weed out the kids who only care about that. even though OSU won the Natty, it stung a little watching Aamil Wagner, a Columbus kid starting at OT for ND. Or seeing Carter Smith sign with IU when he’s from Cbus as well
