No, I’m saying it’s not real. It’s fake. The website it came from is a satirical site. 

Yes, I know what you’re saying, and I still agree.

Sooo I don’t know if this is a sign of what’s to come...but Buckeye Corner has this jersey as a “new item” and the first jersey listed. Maybe going to the 2014 Playoff look?

Thank goodness we've got our priorities straight at OSU.  Higher education all the way.

Remember, this is not robbing Peter the professor to pay Paul the coach, like in the Mid-American Conference, where student fees and taxpayers subsidize money-losing athletic departments. Ohio State athletics reported $175.9 million in revenue last year, pulling in such a profit that Smith said the department gave $40 million back to the university

Thanks for the update. Watched the game. Entertaining but I don't think too much was settled position wise.

I will always have fond memories of Coach Bruce's tenure at Ohio State.  He was hired when I was 9 years old, so his teams were really the ones I grew up with.  He caught a lot of crap during his tenure for losing 3 games most years ("9-3 Earle") and, I think, because he didn't come across as sophisticated enough for some.  He was a blue collar kind of guy, that's for sure.  But his passion was great.  And true, his teams did get into a 9-3 pattern.  But I didn't really care about that.  He had a winning record against Michigan, he coached some of my all-time favorite Buckeyes, and he seemed like an all-around good man.  RIP Earle.

I had no clue as a fan when Earle was there. But I always thought he was classy and a great Buckeye when I heard him speak. He had great enthusiasmfor Ohio State. RIP Earle

Not a huge shock, and not really a blow to the team, but RB Antonio Williams is transferring to UNC. 

Good get for Fedora and Co in Chapel Hill though. Should be able to produce when he becomes eligible.

Yup, have to agree there. And good on him. I hope he goes somewhere and lights it up. Unless it’s Nebraska lol.

In news that should be a surprise to no one, one of OSU's self-proclaimed super-fans was even more of a POS than usual, showing up to Earle Bruce's memorial ceremony late, in full costume and autographed a poster that was for ex coaches and players to sign for the Bruce family.

Interesting article on ranking the Big 10 qbs. I am surprised how low they project the Buckeyes qbs. Hopefully it should be a better year overall for quarterbacks in the Big 10 this year. Tanner Lee from Nebraska was the only Big 10 quarterback drafted this year and that wasn't until the 6th round. J T Barrett couldn't even get an undrafted free agent offer, only a try out offer.

JT Barrett signed a 3 year deal with the Saints. It wasn’t a tryout offer.

My bad. The last I heard was a tryout with the Colts. Good for him and I wish him luck.
