RB Maurice Hall (National Champion)

Good for him. Nice kid and a good citizen of OSU but never did what we all thought at RB...

How about the nice run against Michigan in 2002. And the one run up the middle against Illinois in O/T. Isn't that doing enough? or maybe we did not consider the fact that he has been playing hurt in the past 2 years.

Not putting the kid down and maybe I had too high expectations from what he did in HS. He was an animal in HS but I do appreciate all he has done for this university in the classroom, community, and the field. Heck, I am happy that he is getting his name in the record books...

He will become OSU's all-time kickoff return yardage leader this weekend. He needs 5 yards to pass Garcia Lane.

Wow! That is a bit of a shock, but I'm really happy for him and hope he breaks the record on the first play of the game, a 101 yard TD return.

Go Mo!

Yeah me too Bluff and 2003 was going to be the year he would shine but I thought to myself that without Clarett in there, this would be the year for Hall to step up, but injuries got in the way and our offensive line was in such disarray at the beginning of 2003. It sure must be very frustrating to him to not be able to convince alot of people of his real sense of athleticism but maybe we will be in for a surprise the remainder of the season. Lets hope so anyway huh?

From all we have heard, his knee problems were degenerative as well... so while he may be better after his surgery, it'll only continue to get worse. It's to bad he could not have been provided with an ability to shine here at RB this season. He definately is so much better than Ross when completely healthy.

He had surgery on both knees this past off season and was in alot of pain all last year while playing. He kept his mouth shut and kept playing while injured. He is a great kid and deserves all the credits he gets. Yes he may not of been the best RB at OSU but he's a class act and a great example of a Buckeye. His father works for a freind of mine. Plus any kid who gets the winning run against M#chigan is alright in my book.

I think it would be awesome if he ran the opening kickoff for a TD. Ialways liked Mo because he was a situational player that would always seem to have big plays in pressure situations. The Michigan and Illinois games come to mind.

Absolutely right. I regret that he has been hampered by injuries, but he does have two of the most important touchdowns for OSU in my lifetime, and for that he'll always be celebrated. Add the impending record to that, and the fact that he's been such a great citizen despite all the obstacles he's faced, and despite always looking up to others on the depth chart. I really appreciate what he's accomplished at OSU.

Exactly why I root for him every time he has the ball. He has never complained or quit.
