You're not surprised by this are you?

 

[ShowMeBuck]

Not at all. Just trying to get all my depression out in a compact, short few days. Anyone want to talk about our porous secondary or Mavety's recruitment?

also doesn't sound like he really wants to come back next year. he is "tired of taking so many hits" and "running backs are on scholarship too"

interesting comments

He said he’s “getting tired” of the pounding and is well aware that Ohio State will lose four senior starters on its offensive line.
He wants to develop as more of a traditional, pro-style quarterback, saying: “We recruit running backs. They’re on scholarship, too.”

he is "tired of taking so many hits" and "running backs are on scholarship too"

Not to be too snarky about it, but, he wasn't running the ball a whole lot when he was throwing the ball well. It's only when his passing went to pot that we want back to the "get Brax killed" offense.

On side of that fence, the receivers dropped some great passes in the BIG and on the other side of that I think you have to give him the comment about the RB. We could have definitely run Hyde, Hall, Smith, Zeke, Wilson, etc. His passing would certainly have benefited from some in between routes and utilizing the TE.

All that being said, congrats to Braxton as that is an elite accomplishment! Please come back!!!!!

Ohio State QB Braxton Miller wins Silver Football as Big Ten's best, says he'll think about leaving for NFL

Getting tired of taking all the hits as a QB and is aware of the fact that only 4 OL are coming back. I wonder if Braxton knows that he will take some harder hits in the NFL and he played with 2 underclassmen against MSU. If you do not run the ball so much, you will not be taking those hits Braxton. Do not go!

Hopefully this just means during bowl practice and during the offseason, we'll develop a three step drop gameplan

Jones, Barrett, or Collier....who wins the starting job next year?

 

[Coqui]

Miller

Taking Miller out of the equation though, I haven't seen Barrett or Collier at all, but I would have to assume Barrett from what I've heard (I assumed he redshirted while Jones had already used his redshirt)

Not to be too snarky about it, but, he wasn't running the ball a whole lot when he was throwing the ball well. It's only when his passing went to pot Corey Brown suffered a stress fracture in his leg that we want back to the "get Brax killed" offense.

FTFY.

FTFY.

Don't agree. Millers issues are more than a receiver getting injured. Far more.

hands got cold too?

Interesting comments from Brax. Sounds like if he could sign today for a mid second to mid third round contract he would take it. I found his comments about wanting to play well against Clemson to say one thing: "I want to look good to the scouts."
