Just because they didn't find any other violations doesn't mean they won't increase our sanctions if they think the self imposed ones aren't bad enough.

I'm all for that but you have to have a guy like Corey Brown in their too who can stretch the D. Hopefully he can catch this year too.

Size looks nice, but give me a receiver who (1) runs a precise route and (2) has glue for hands over any size or speed stat out there.

A shame. He showed some potential. But I'm learning you just can't depend on 'ville kids to stick around.

Starting to see why they never win State Titles. It seems like their kids have all the talent in the world but aren't the most reliable to fulfill it.

You know they don't run good routes and don't have good hands?

Tunnel of Pride for football opener


http://www.dispatch.com/live/content/sports/stories/2011/07/28/former-players-to-line-up-in-support.html?sid=101
"Former players feel we still have a tremendous amount of pride and tradition that makes us still feel good about the program," Logan said. "And we want not so much the stadium or the nation to know, but for the players and coaches who are standing on that sideline getting ready to start another season to understand that regardless of what has happened in the last 12 months or so, that we support them wholeheartedly.

My comment was directed at the ooohs and ahhhhs about the size. Tall receivers are great, but if they can't catch or run routes, they really aren't helping. I'm hoping these guys are all the real deal, but I guess we'll see.

I like some of the comments better than the "story" Jackson wrote. It was nothing but a rehash and semi-hatchet job. Much along the same lines that we've seen way too much of the past several months.

There's a ton of totally football-related stuff that COULD be written about Ohio State entering this season, but I've yet to see one article that leaves out any commentary by the writer looking (hoping) for OSU to be punished further.

Journalism has become such a joke these days -- even sports journalism.

Well, let's just hope the Buckeyes make a statement this season even if they are slapped with a post-season suspension (which I doubt).

Under the current circumstances a 10-2 season may not shut-up the media critics, but they'd certainly squirm a little.

Newsome is a douche. Ever read some of his "tweets" on Twitter? THe kid things the world should be handed to him, and if you tell him any different - he lashes out. Serious momma issues or somethin'.
