Great that the Buckeyes won a 5 versus 7 game against Maryland. Distinctly saw the MD ladies doing full body slams against the Buckeyes. Also saw the refs in cahoots with Md. Some of those non-calls were outrageous, and tOSU ladies handled with dignity, while the Md folk should have gotten at least three technicals for grousing. Do believe that Md outplayed us, and was amazed that everytime looked at scoreboard (not entirely certain that Peacock is for me), we were only 2-4 points down. Give it to the good girls, they hung tough all game. Both wife and I were amazed when the announcer said that those were Jacy's first points of the evening (guess he meant basket). Everyone played a heckuva game, all four starters, and Ricki, Emma, did a good bit as well. Enjoyed Ricki (Rikki?) mixing it up with a couple of Md brutes (all seemed blocky), and Shumates second effort (and a missed follow! and putback was marvelous). Anyone else note that McDuff put Cotie in the high post, in isolation, and let her wheel and deal? Hope we see more of that, as Cotie had her best game in awhile. Also Mika (computer doesn't have all those oomlats etc), showed me some moves in the hole. Hesitate to call that an 'overall team win', but that's exactly what it was. Great job Buckeyes! Keep it rolling. PS, when the announcers put up the WBB standings, can see eight or so B10 teams in the dance. Unless they cannibalize themselves during league play. Keep it rolling against Iowa, please! Go Bucks!

6th in PPG in 2021 and 4th in PPG in 2022 at Alabama. I don't get the hate about this potential hire. Say what you want about his Ped State background, but guy has shown he can be a good college OC. Wasn't my first choice either, but we could do much much worse.

Just sayin': We have done a lot worse in the past too.......:lol:

Speculation that it’s Bill O’Brien.

* Back to point one -- OSU has ponied up $13M to retain/add to this the 2024 football team. And that number will go higher should it get Downs, and possibly another (or two) offensive linemen.

Just sayin': That's sure not "chump change".....:boogie:

Bill O’Brien (HC Boston College, aka BillyBob O’Buttchin et al)

BuckeyeNation27
So, on a whim, I went and found this thread.

New rule......same as the old rule:
BB73 said:
I am creating a rule for this thread: every post with a reference to Billybob O'Buttchin must contain a unique name with the initials B.O'B.

Every time someone posts in this thread without a new B.O'B name, it's a dingable offense.

Hey, it's about time I did something moderator-like.

This applies to any reference of Barnacle O'Bindledick in any thread. Keep it nice and clean in the recruiting forum. Nothing changes, even if his employer does.

Two duals this weekend with Md. on Friday @ home and Wisc. Sunday afternoon @ Wisc.
Only Wilcox (157) and Geog (197) are facing higher seeds vs. Terps.
Against the Badgers the wrestlers vs. higher seeds are McCrone (125) Hepner (165) Welsh (174) and Shumate (184).
Go Bucks..we need these two because the schedule after this weekend is brutal.
Click to expand...
We should handle Maryland with relative ease and Wisky will be a stiffer competition, but we should win that one by 10-15 points imo. This is a good dual team and these should be two fun ones to watch with my dad. We are buried in snow/ice right now, so it is a great weekend to stay warm inside and watch some quality wrestling. Go wrestling Bucks.

"How would you feel if I told you [that] you suck?" Milroe told reporters. "He told me a bunch of positions I could have switched to, but look where I am right now. Who gets the last laugh?"

Sounds like BoB is brutally honest and told/motivated Jalen Milroe what he needed to become a better QB.. I don't know how that will translate to recruiting.

Same here, hell even if it is for one year, next year we need to go all in on beating TCUN first and foremost. Then a Natty run. He could be the best fit for that with his experience. We went all in next year with the portal additions, cutting staff/staff additions, recruiting, etc. and this should be no different. We don't need a long-term hire at OC with Hartline waiting in the wings, so it could be great for both sides.

How is BO'B at recruiting?

And I have no problem with him as OC, not that my opinion matters to Coach Day;-)

It is starting to feel like another year that Harbaugh is not seriously seeking a NFL coaching spot, and NFL not really wanting him.

It feels like he wants to someone to kiss his feet and make him feel like there could be no one other than him. And after a team interviews and finds that out they are like uhh nooo

Exactly, this is really what we needed, someone who's not coming in to let Day ultimately wiggle his way back into play calling. BoB will completely take over and Day can focus on being a HC and yes he will also be a great mentor for Hartline.

I disagree. I think Trevor Lawrence has the athleticism to play quarterback in the NFL, and McCarthy doesn't.
But what do I know? I thought that Saquon Barkley would be a bust, based on his performances against Ohio State.

He is the back he was in college based on what I’ve seen. Big runs or nada. Very little in between
Click to expand...

Agree, Barkley is the same guy he was at PSU.
He will break off the occasional big run for a TD, but after 10-15 carries he's a liability.
And this year he couldn't even do that.
Definitely been a decent player to have for fantasy or as a gadget player, but as the 2nd overall pick... oof.
I hesitate to call him a bust, but #2 overall is a waste. Especially at a position that can get production from mid round dudes.

Unrelated but I know some people aren't happy that the new President doesn't have a PHD. Well even less people have been Admirals in the Navy and I find that highly appealing to be frank.
Click to expand...

And even less of THOSE admirals have been through the Navy’s Strike Fighter Tactics Instructor program. Add in the fact that roughly 1% of Americans serve. He is literally the 1% of the 1% - who cares about a PhD? Not a whole lot of time to work on dissertations when you’re deployed, TDY, or flying - it’s a VERY hard life. His combat hours speak for his time away from school.

For perspective, having been a career AF aviator, I’ve been through Advanced Airlift Tactics training (dogfighting), advanced mountain courses, HALO/HAHO, and plenty of other training, and that’s nothing compared to his accomplishments. I couldn’t even imagine going through TOPGUN and someone saying “yeah well you don’t have a piece of paper from a university acknowledging you did some schoolwork studies.” I’m absolutely over the moon for this hire. He has all the qualifications and qualities you would want in a leader. I would rather he mentor me than half the professors I had with cool LinkedIn acronyms after their last name.

Bama fans misdirect blame at BoB for not winning the title in 2021 and 2022

2021 they just had bad luck down the stretch. They were without their top 2 WRs for most of the title game vs UGA.

John Metchie tore his ACL in the SEC title game, and Jameson Williams was torching UGAs defense before he got hurt in the 2nd quarter.

2022 was on the defense, bad defense was the reason they lost the Tennessee and LSU games, it wasn't the offense.

Also he moved on at his own will from Bama anyway, he was not fired.
