Great day to be a Buckeye
I'm still laughing about how cool it is that our QB can stiff arm a defensive lineman to the ground.

Buckeye86;1781471; said:IIRC the grading scale for earning buckeye leaves is explained on Coach Tressel's website (it might be premium). I am not sure if it details what the QB has to do to earn a winning performance, but it covers the units (offense, defense, special teams) and gives a good idea of the kind of things he looks for.

BB73;1781508; said:The player grades have different criteria than the Buckeye leaves.
For a player grade, every play in the game is reviewed by his position coach (for TP, that's Siciliano) for whether or not it was a good performance. IIRC, an 85% is needed in order to receive a passing grade, regardless of position. But each position has different aspects of each play reviewed. I don't know if partial scores are given on individual plays.
Batch mentors Heisman Trophy hopeful Terrelle Pryor

As soon as Terrelle Pryor heard Charlie Batch was getting the starting nod at quarterback for the Steelers, he instantly fired off a text message that read, "I hear a guy named Charlie B. is about to lead the Steelers to another victory."
Batch followed with a short, gracious response.
Over the past seven years, that's about the extent of the football talk that goes back and forth between the Heisman hopeful Ohio State quarterback and his longtime mentor.
When it comes to everything else ? school work, responsibilities, decision-making and life in general ? Batch has plenty of advice for Pryor.
"We all know he can play football, I am not concerned with that," Batch said. "Football is the last thing we talk about. I am worried about him as a person and making sure that he is OK. Everybody else can talk about football with him."
Having a strong personal relationship with a 13-year veteran professional quarterback such as Batch would seemingly be the perfect fit for Pryor to throw football questions at him repeatedly, but the conversation rarely goes down that path.
"I know I am one of the few who he knows that if he asks the tough question, he will get a tough answer," Batch said.
And Pryor doesn't mind at all.
"There are people out there who try to take advantage of you," Pryor said. "There are a lot of these bad people around, and it is just nice to have a good guy in your ear who has been there and done that."
