Crater fell, but Buford hit 5-star status. Offutt fell a bit, and so did Babbitt (from a high to medium 4 star). Everyone knew Crater was falling, the question was just how much. Falling to a 3 seems a bit drastic, but after the way he played the last month, he didn't deserve to be a 5 star...

He actually reminds me a lot of Troy Smith when he's on the move. He's not lightning quick in the open field (I'd say that 4.6 is probably about right), but he has excellent feet and good elusiveness. He's also very strong like Troy, evidenced by his ability to take tacklers on with a stiff arm...

Just a few observations: Beal, Brendan has an offer. So does Jarboe, Josh (I'm pretty sure).

As a Dublin Coffman ('01) and Miami U. ('05) graduate, I know Trey would have an absolutely fantastic college experience in Oxford, OH. Miami throws the ball around a lot (I was there with Roethlisberger, so I know) and Clay Belton should be a good fit at QB for them. Trey could be used much...

Yes, just one guy over 6'7'', and he plays about 2 minutes per game. Their leading rebounder is 6'4'' (although he's averaging 10.9 a game, must be a wide body, a leaper, or play with great tenacity . . . either that or he plays in the NEC where he's PF-sized). Looks like they don't go more...

It looks like Dielman is going to resign with the Chargers. That should about do it, as far as signing OL in free agency (unless they nab a sleeper). Now, Browns, please, draft a few Olineman. Granted, we have needs everywhere (DE, DT, CB, LB, RB, QB?, and probably even WR come to mind), and I'm...

I started law school in the fall, so not surprisingly I've had less time to post. However, I'm so grateful to BuckeyePlanet because, now that I live in Chicago and not Columbus, it's my best source (along with rivals) for Buckeye info. Just wish more of the games were on out here . . . As for...

The obvious answer is we have to be smarter in defending both the inside and the outside. Oden, like Ken Johnson before him, erases mistakes. He allows our perimeter guys to play tighter because, if they get beat, he's back there to prevent the easy lay-up. So, without Oden, our guys have to...

Oh there's no question about that. And we probably should be ranked as a top ten team, using the criteria tha the average voter uses. There's no shame in losing to arguably the top 3 teams in the country on the road (though Wisconsin sure looks flat against Northwestern today), and, now that we...

I hope that's true. Would you have said that before Martin spurned us for the Vols though? My guess is no.

A few observations: 1. After being pretty great the whole game, the refs completely swallowed their whistles in the last two minutes. I didn't mind the no-calls when Lofton drove twice; calling a charge in that late-game situation is pretty rare. However, on the last play the Tennessee player...

Cheers.

In one sense, you hesitate to say something like this because a) this coaching staff has been great all year and throughout the Tressel era, and b) it's difficult to isolate the effects of coaching in any specific instance. On any given play, we can tell when a football player drops a ball...

No coach worth his salt would let Oden get a dunk in a must-score situation. They'd simply foul and make him shoot left-handed FTs. Of course, Greg is so strong that it's difficult to foul him hard enough to keep him from putting it up and in, but still . . . I'd foul him before he made his move...

Yeah, I agree, it looked like the Florida defender was between the LSU call barrier and the ground, potentially carrying him into the endzone. I don't know if the call was reviewed or not, but it looked questionable... In any case, LSU made HUGE mistakes in that game, and many of them led...

Yeah, it's funny how Florida fans say our win over Texas wasn't very impressive because it was based mostly on two lucky turnovers (one near the goal line). Did they even watch their own LSU game? I'm only halfway through the second quarter of that replay, and already LSU has muffed a punt...

Losing to Florida with Horford (arguably their best player) out of the lineup would be quite a blow; much like it would have been for UNC to lose to us without Oden. Granted, we have to play at UF, but still, I think this game is a little more important now. If we drop this game, we at least...

First, I completely agree with my esteemed colleague (and former co-worker) that the 2002 Bucks aren't much like 2006 Florida. They were both underdogs . . . sure. But in every game a team is favored, so every game has an "underdog." A team that wins every game, though often in an ugly fashion...

I know he suffered a serious injury, but does anyone else know if that's true?

If the Browns take a wide receiver, or really any skill player outside Adrian Peterson, I'll probably kill myself. Even Peterson would be a poor choice considering our wet rag of an offensive line -- he can make plays on his own, but with his injury history and our OLineman Olaying every...
