“Just like iron sharpens iron, so does man sharpen other men,” receiver Jehu Chesson said.

 

[MililaniBuckeye]

Pretty much! I didn't knoe that having the most recruits(with 1 max in the 1st round) invited to the combine signified success...
I guess not winning the B1G with one of the most senior heavy teams means little..

Not only failing to win the B1G, but not even winning their division...

Not only failing to win the B1G, but not even winning their division...

Isn't third in the division or worse, for a couple of years running mind you, considered "also ran?"

 

[Buckeyeskickbuttocks]

Back to back to back third place division champs!

I guess it's a good thing he doesn't tweet. Yeesh.

Chesson was apparently quoting the Harbrau.

“Just like iron sharpens iron, so does man sharpen other men,” receiver Jehu Chesson said. “And when [Harbaugh] says that, it really gets you to think what competition really does for a team..."

Most projections would land them here in year 3 as well, assuming Sparty does not rebound

This is needlessly picky, but fuck Michigan and Harbaugh, so:

You make iron with other iron- a hammer and anvil- you sharpen iron with a whetstone.

Who the fuck sharpens iron with iron? Slamming two swords together in a fight actually does the exact opposite and makes the edge duller.

Therefore slamming your brain with harbaugh quotes makes one duller as well?

I don't think the kind of sword crossing you are picturing is the kind of sword crossing they are talking about up there

just a guess

The Chesson was quoting The Harbrau was quoting The Bible: “As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.” Proverbs 27:17

Not a biblical scholar, but I don't think this passage is really about competition.

He's probably mixed it up from Harbaugh quoting a famous line from the book of Judge Judy

 

[Buckeyeskickbuttocks]

Not to quibble with the Bible, but.... if iron doesn't actually sharpen iron as 86 said, then one man does not sharpen another, right?

Actually, considering the results on the field, I'm inclined to say the use of the quote is showing those results on the field. Unsharp men, losing at football. Now, I suspect there are results in the locker room too.... NTTAWWT

don't take this as any kind of endorsement of what those clowns up north said, but files are made of iron and are used to sharpen blades.
