Some people found ways to be angry during 2002. There will just always be those types of fans, no matter what team. I tell you one thing about this year...the Big 10 is as even as it has ever been. It seems like each team has been able to play with every other team. These kids give 110%, and I couldn't be happier about the situation at Ohio State today. I like where the football program is going. I like Tressel and I trust in him. I thought Cooper always had a bunch of good players, but when they needed to play like a team, they couldn't do it. Tressel has yet to have as much talent as Cooper had. We did have 14 players go in the draft, but that was because of a huge senior class...the 2002-2003 Buckeyes had a lot less to work with than the Buckeyes of the Mid to late 90s. But they played as a team. No team is perfect. There has never been a team that has been perfect. Even if they win all their games, one could always pull something negative from the team if they wanted to. There is always going to be some negatives for people to talk about if they want.
