well, there are a lot of Brits enshrined in the RR Hall of Fame in Cleveland, so that's a nice tie-in.

We should start a fundraiser for Gunner Ash, so he can come to America, visit the rock and roll hall of fame on a Wednesday, go to Columbus for a Buckeye game and then back to Cleveland for a Brownies game on Sunday and back to England on Monday. Other than the pale ale I'm sure he'd have a jolly old time.

Welcome to the board, Gunner. Long time Kinks/Beatles/Who fan here.

That sounds brilliant! Much to my shame, I've still never got myself over to the US, much as i'd love to though. Oh well, one day I hope. Thanks for the welcome.

Hello fellow Buckeyes! My name is Brian and I'm 34yrs old and from a small area about 30 minutes south of Terre Haute, Indiana. Been a tOSU fan since around age 12 despite my entire family being diehard Boiler fans. Been married for 8 years and have two great kids. I own a online business and have been a volunteer firefighter for over 13 years now and love it! Besides the Bucks I follow the Colts,Celtics, Indianapolis Indians, Terre Haute Rex (new Prospect League team) and are a avid dirt track racing fan.

Born in 48. My childhood memories are from Loup City and Lincoln Nebraska so I'm lifelong Huaskerfan. My first game at Memorial staduim in Lincoln was way back in the Bill Jennings era before we hired Bob Devaney and rebuilt the dynasty.
I'm a Navy veteran and got in on a unique slice of world history while assigned to the now decommissioned USS Hornet.
We were the recovery ship which picked apollo 11 & 12. Apollo 11 were the first men to walk to face of the moon.

Obvious Nebraska fan that I found via a Buckeye fan that came over to our husker site. Look forward so much to coming to the Big 10. Go Big Red (in this case Nebraska and Ohio State) and here hoping every time we play you, it's a great game. (and we win)

Welcome to all of the Husker fans!

Here's hoping for some great games in the future.

And please, stick around and become an active part in this community. You will find that BuckeyePlanet is one of the best (if not the best) communities on the internet. One of the reasons is because of active participation from fans of other programs across the country.

With the reputation that Nebraska fans have, I (along with many others I am sure) am really looking forward to your contributions here.

Guess I never formally introduced myself. Names Mike, and I am what most call a "traitor."......LOL. Born and raised just outside C-Bus in New Albany. Or as I like to call it "Old Albany," because it doesn't look anything like it did when I grew up there. Married with two kids and one more on the way. Use to be a chef, but now I get to stay at home and raise my kids. It's awesome and I am having the time of my life. My wife is an osu grad, so that's always interesting around the time of The Game.

I love talking all things sports, and especially about the rivalry. The site was suggested by a buckeye fan who posts on a Michigan board. He thought I would like this site over another buckeye site that will remain nameless. He was right, everyone here seems to know their stuff and able to post and be respectful for the most part. Of course I expect the normal trash talk, but there's a difference in trash talking and simply insulting people because of the team the root for.

It's been a rough decade. Definitely payback for our domination in the 90's. But hey, it's cyclical. Hopefully we can right the ship and get back to respectability. Whether it's with RR or someone else, that remains to be seen.

GO BLUE

Nebraska Alum here. Went to school there during the the greatest run in school history (60-3, 3 national championships). Born and raised in Omaha.

I work with tons of Hawkeye fans so I've had friendly run-in's with the Big Ten for years, now it's about to get much more serious. I'm loving this grace period we have and have been more than impressed with how gracious each Big Ten team has been so far.

I'm one of about 11 Husker Basketball fans on the interwebs. Been following them for decades as well. Got a long ways to go, but I'm always up for any bball talk. I know OSU has a solid program so I may check out the bball forum too.

Hey SidehatchHusker, good to see you came over to check it out. This boards mission statement isn't much different than what we're used to at Huskerfanclub. Respectful and mature and no flame bombs. I like it.

We at Buckeye Planet welcome you and welcome the attitude that you bring. We all try to be respect for each other's opinion and no flame throwing here either. I think I can speak for the moderators regarding the latter.

Just wanted to say thanks for the great welcome. I've heard from a few of our members at Huskerfanclub.com that this is a like-minded culture -- friendly, respectful/civil passionate fans. I am the owner/admin of HFC and simply wanted to pass along my appreciation for the warm welcome we've received from you great Ohio State folks.

As you have heard from some of our other folks, I'll be encouraging our membership to come enjoy your hospitality and the great board you've built here. Nice to make new friends, learn about the Big Ten, and invest in the development of healthy, friendly rivals. Likewise, we invite you to come visit our site and share your insights with us, particularly since it seems we share a common desire for a positive, healthy and respectful sports community.

I feel like we are more at home in the Big 10 already than we ever were in the Big 12. This really is a better fit. Your welcome has made it moreso. Thanks.

I have been a lurker for years and decided to finally join in and post here as well. Love the Buckeyes and the fans are usually like family to me.

Ohio State games are the only place where I have hugged a stranger and a man to boot, and I have let another man high five and hug my wife and think nothing of it.....only at a Buckeye game baby!!!
