Jamel Turner Shot (again)
Sunday, June 20th, 2010Because I mostly ignore the internet on Saturdays (unless I'm playing Modern Warfare 2), I didn't hear about Jamel Turner being shot until late last night when I had been messaged by a friend on Facebook that he had been shot and was in pretty bad shape. It is never ...
Spankings all around
Wednesday, June 9th, 2010This is June, right? Can this many exciting things really be happening in the world of College Football (capitalized for respect, son)? We have something cooking for the Big Ten expansion (hopefully!) forthcoming, but in the meantime, per Bruce Feldman at ESPN, the NCAA is about to get medieval on USC: Wonder ...
Mac-soli is a goner
Wednesday, June 9th, 2010University of Oregon quarterback Jeremiah Masoli has been dismissed from the school’s football program for a failure to adhere to obligations previously outlined by head football coach Chip Kelly. Such a shame. (via Dr. Saturday)
The Rich get Richer
Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010Recruiting is not our shtick around here, but that doesn't mean we won't be found watching high school highlight films of future and former recruits on YouTube on a given Wednesday afternoon. We have what you might call a vested interest. We also know just enough to be dangerous but ...
Moeller’s Attacker to Pay
Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010Via ESPN: The 28-year-old Decker will be sentenced in August. He will pay $11,000 in restitution for Moeller's medical bills. That's a start, but clearly jail time should also in the works. Even still, I don't think jail time will be sufficient punishment to satisfy the demands of the Stiff Arm of ...
You already knew this, but…
Tuesday, April 27th, 2010The Ohio State Defense has been really good lately. So says Phil Steele: Ohio St scoring defense has been dominant over the past 5 years allowing just 13.4 ppg which is more than 1 ppg lower than #2 Virginia Tech. TCU has always fielded good defenses under HC Gary Patterson and ...
A Fresh Start for Mount Vernon
Monday, April 26th, 2010It may seem like I spend an inordinate amount of time obsessing over Vernon Gholston's career but I feel a certain investment in it, especially after prominently (and quite honestly, creepily) featuring his genetically superior physique while he was at Ohio State and possibly over-hyping his performances at any chance. ...
Spring Game
Saturday, April 24th, 2010This year I'm trying not to get caught up in the spring time hype and excitement. I know it's fun to follow the team's practice and preparation, but there's only so much that can really be gained from dissecting a handful of practices and half-speed scrimmages. That's not to say ...
NFL Draft/Cavs v. Bulls/Spring Game Open Thread
Thursday, April 22nd, 2010It's been a while since we've had an open thread around these parts, and with all the sports-related action going on, I thought it would be great to throw up an open thread and hear from you guys. I know most mock drafts don't have Thaddues Maximus going very high ...
In case you missed it
Tuesday, April 20th, 2010You, yes you, can get yourself an Ohio State Wide Receiver for the low-low price of a fifth round draft pick. Here's to hoping Ted Ginn Jr. can get a new lease on life on the Left Coast while Santonio Holmes joins Braylon Edwards in the unholiest of wide receiver ...
In case you missed it
Tuesday, April 13th, 2010The Buckeyes had some "extra help" with stopping the Oregon Ducks' offense when the two teams met in the Rose Bowl. At least some people are convincing themselves that this actually happened. Of course, this is all being embellished (and possibly taken out of context) by John Hunt, of OregonLive.com (h/t ...
Good Luck, The Kid ET
Wednesday, April 7th, 2010Our best wishes go out to Evan Turner as he prepares to make the jump to the next level of basketball competition, declaring himself eligible for the Association. Turner's development has been interesting to watch over the years. Coming in as a highly rated recruit, he reportedly butted heads with teammates ...
Congrats are in order
Tuesday, April 6th, 2010Congratulations to Miller (sorry, don't have a first name) on his 2010 NCAA Tournament Challenge victory. He correctly predicted a championship for the Puke Blue Devilesses. As much as it pains me to say this, good on ya, mate! Due to poor planning, the only prize this year is our undying ...
Was there any doubt?
Sunday, April 4th, 2010Tonight, Evan Turner was crowned King of the World. He announced that he will be back for his senior season. He was also awarded the 2010 Naismith Award after already receiving every other significant Player of the Year Award. (One of those things is true.)
