They have a LB and ST Coord position open. Good for him if he gets the coord position

Just read the same on Yahoo; new sheriff and new rules. Personally, I like it.

Arent there rules on how many recruits you can sign a year? Am I wrong with that? For some reason I thought there was a rule that big ten teams could only sign 25. A buddy of mine said he heard osu could sign possibly 28. That I know isn't going to happen.. But I'm just curious of the rule.

25 is the rule but you can petition the B1G to sign as many as 28 to get to a total of 85. Of course w/sanctions that will be avg of 82 over the next 3 years.

EE's count for the previous year's 25 total. If there are 3 EE's this year, they can sign 28.

Right and I think we only had 79 on scholly last season. It's been hard to keep track of the number we can sign with tranfers, leaves etc.

This. Wish the two previous regimes (Tress and Fickell) would have been more like this.

as frustrating as it was this past season with him at the helm, the ovation Fickell got was pretty cool

I was sitting fairly close to Fickell, his wife and kids. When he got that ovation, his wife started crying. After a tough year and half, hearing that support from the fans, really touched them. It was very cool.

In the video it looked like Vrabel was ready to strap on the pads again...he may have one more down in him. Didnt realize how huge he still looks.
