Comments on: Hartline Leaving, but Coleman’s Sticking Around http://www.elevenwarriors.com/2009/01/hartline-leaving-but-colemans-sticking-around.html You're Stepping into Manhood Right Now Fri, 19 Mar 2010 06:50:45 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Jim http://www.elevenwarriors.com/2009/01/hartline-leaving-but-colemans-sticking-around.html#comment-44551 Jim Thu, 15 Jan 2009 21:40:53 +0000 http://www.elevenwarriors.com/?p=3339#comment-44551 If what has been reported about his negative effect on the locker room is true than it probably is better that he leave. That said, I spent about 5 hours at WHAC around the team in August. Most of the players were pretty cool with the exception of a bonehead or two but Hartline was, by far, the classiest most gracious of the bunch that I observed.

Browning is leading the "odd man out on the line" poll, including a vote from me. Hopefully, he'll improve significantly and earn himself a starting spot again. They need veterans. I just hope they all reduce the number of "gravies" next season. Ouch. Browning is leading the “odd man out on the line” poll, including a vote from me.

I just hope they all reduce the number of “gravies” next season.

I don't have a problem with him leaving, nor do I have a problem with <i>any</i> player leaving. If it's best for them personally, then that's fine with me. I have a problem with his "me first" attitude that most of the OSU players don't have. It was detrimental to the team this season (especially during the starting QB switch), and ultimately, detrimental to Brian Hartline and his reputation (the NFL will notice things like that). That's why I'm not sweating his leaving, which isn't that harsh of a thing to say, actually. Once again, I'll let Hartline's own comments speak for themselves: <i>“Everyone involved within The Ohio State University football program has done a tremendous job <b>for me</b>.”</i> I’m not sure if you’re addressing me, but I’ll explain my comment above a little further.

“Everyone involved within The Ohio State University football program has done a tremendous job for me.”

I can understand Hartline standing up for his best friend, wouldn't you for yours. And besides Hartline was in the very least a beast on special teams. Lets remeber the good.

Lots of you are being real dicks about Hartline. You don't know him. He's not insulting your mother by leaving. His choice, people, show some restraint, or at least some Tress-style class. P.S.

Fans love those Buckeyes that come back for another run (well, most of them). And he should be a monster next year. I'm happy to have been wrong about him leaving early. I agree.

He's a beast, and anytime you can keep an eligible junior who led the team in INTs from bolting then it's a good day. I hope he's right that they "can do anything next year." I'm taking that with a grain of salt, but hope it comes to fruition. I’m glad Coleman is staying.
