Thanks for the kind thoughts, Gator.

I have to say that Donavan's pigheaded insistence to keep pressing, even when it became obvious the Buckeyes would break it and get easy points, got me thinking maybe he's not the brightest bulb in the box.

Donovan is planning for a SEC run and believes the press is a key. He's still a very fine coach. He just got beat by a better team. :tongue2:

I don't think he was totally about the "W" at this point in the season. He was trying to find personnel/line ups and to see how they would do against some really talented and physical players.

Billy is not going to abandon the press because you broke it. In a late season bubble game he would do anything to get a win, but not on November 16. We have to do a better job, because ultimately we hope to play folks with your level of skill sets late in the season.

How better to practice that than to keep trying it with your bunch?

I sure hope that you I'm not trying to tell us that little Billy did not want to be the hell out of us because any coach does not like to lose and this loss, at home, will put a big dent in his RPI down the road. I just don't buy what you are trying to sell.

In further news, These are the throwback uni's Nike has redesigned tOSU conf. play unis after. New age materials like synthetic velour, micro polyester and rayon trim have been added to make the uniforms 33% lighter than previous additions. tOSU however has refused comment on the mandatory double socks.
