Today, I'm beyond excited to announce that Vico and Michael Citro of Our Honor Defend have joined the staff at Eleven Warriors.
If you're familiar with their work, you know that we just got better, instantly. This isn't Rutgers and Maryland. This is Notre Dame and Texas.
Vico and Michael will introduce some of you to the wonders of Better Knowing a Buckeye, the richest library of Ohio State football video on the web, and some of the best writing on Ohio State athletics that you will read anywhere.
We're committed to being the internet's best Buckeye sports bar and the addition of Vico and Michael is nothing short of pulling out stools for Norm and Cliff.
Please join us in welcoming them.

Welcome!!! This site just gets better and better!
"Anything less than flagrant is just playing grab ass!"
Good to have you, gentlemen.
That sounds great!!!! YOU GUYS ARE ALREADY THE BEST !!!!!
Nice additions! Our Honor Defend is a quality website.
Agree 100% WElCOME WELCOME WELCOME!!!
This site is becoming like having Netflix and Hulu streaming capabilities, but for free. I'm like a giddy little kid on Christmas!
Whoa, and the rich get richer haha.
Seriously, that cache of vintage Buckeye footage is absolutely insane.
With Ramzy's bourbon expertise and Vico's sandwich savvy I expect (and hope) the next 11W development to be a food and drink blog. Welcome gents.
Don't forget Elika's contributions. F-O-O-D P-O-R-N.

Welcome aboard. 11W has already answered the question, 'What have you done to beat Mighigan (blogs) today?'
Welcome fellas!
I already thought it was unnecessary to go to any other sites for all things Buckeye related. You've just made it even more unnecessary!

So is OHD shutting down?

Vico said earlier that he would keep it open for the archives.
Will the video content be available on 11W now?
Great addition! Welcome Gents!
Eeeeeeeeeexxcellent.
If you've never met me or Vico, then know that I'm Norm and he is Cliff.
Very excited to be a part of the 11W team.
Which one is ND (the one with the annoying national network) and which one is Texas (the one with the annoying network no one cares about or has)?
Just read Vico's farewell (Jason linked below). You guys did great work on OHD. Just wanted to acknowledge your contributions there.
Like everyone else, I'm looking forward to more of your thoughtful and amusing prose here on 11W. Welcome Vico and Michael.
#fistpumpgobuckeyes
Hope you never end up wearing milkbone underpants!
Ha! By my remark, I meant of course that I am the fat one who drinks a lot of beer and cracks wise, while Vico is the thin one who drinks a lot of beer and drops knowledge on you while he does it.
Vico and Michael just made my work productivity plummet.... I welcome you with open arms and can't wait to read to pieces.
Great additions. Follow both of these guys on twitter.
Holy shit. You got Vico?! My God.
How soon until the Justice breaks up your little Buckeye monopoly into bite-sized pieces? The competition has zero chance.
I was thinking the same thing. Just be glad that Teddy R. and the TrustBusters aren't around anymore, this site is getting ridiculous.
Hi guys
Taquitos.
Very nice! I enjoy watching their YouTube videos of classic Buckeye triumphs. Sandwich tips will be nice, too.
Class of 2010.
The next step toward world domination by 11W. Look out, Amazon/Google!
Welcome aboard, fellas.
O-H...!
Hope there's no battle over who inked the longest contract or scored the most millions. There's room for eveyone. Welcome gents.
Awesome pickup! Will OHD be merging with Eleven Warriors or will OHD still be operating?
OHD will remain as a museum of sorts, but will not be updated. Here's Vico's farewell message.
2013 just keeps looking better and better. Welcome to the best media site for tOSU football!

It is hard to play dirty against a man who picks you up.
Welcome Vico and Michael!
This is, how you say, a good get.
Wow, welcome guys! I loved reading BKAB on OHD and am excited to see it live on at 11W!
Gray Box worthy stuff. Well done and welcome Gentlemen.
Nothing like dancing on the field in 02...
Welcome!
grey box worthy additions!!
I believe it's called cornering the market. Now essentially all of my twitter follows are 11dubsters.
vacuuming sucks
LOL me too. It's a wonderful problem to have however.
~Because we couldn't go for three~
Welcome Michael & Vico. Glad to have you!
I wanted to be the Rutgers of 11W Expansion. When do I get my 11W Network money? It's my money and I need it now. :-(
I can't believe I ate the whole thing.
I'm upvoting you while I still can. Welcome sir. Sandwhich for the occasion?

Good catch!
What upvotes? :) Thanks for catching that, btw.
AAAAAAAND THEY'RE GONE
Welcome, guys. Look forward to reading things you type on the internet.

Welcome gentlemen. Loved your videos for some time now!
The empire grows.
Welcome boys! OHD and 11W together = Buckeye coverage dominance!
Welcome to the family. Looking forward to your articles and videos. I'm a huge follower of OHD videos on youtube.
You tell the SEC when they can learn to read and write, then they can figure out what we're doing. - Gordon Gee
Hot damn that's great news. I've always loved Vico's take on things; his BKAB and video library are just several inches of icing on a delcious cake.
Truly, there is no need to look any further than 11W for your Buckeye news and fix.

This is so umm what word am i searching for...
~Because we couldn't go for three~
Welcome, Vico and Michael!
I'd congratulate the 11W staff on landing yet another pair of 5-star recruits, except that if you two were really 5-star recruits, you'd probably have ended up at Conquest Chronicles (or some other USC blog), after a late night visit from Lane Kiffin's bagman.
Suffice it to say that the additions of Vico and Michael have valuted 11W to the top of Rivals all-time recruiting rankings!
11W and Urban's football team....the best keep getting better!
JUICE!!
Wow! This is great news. I used to spend a lot of time on Our Honor Defend.
I love the Drive-Thru's. Will we by chance be seeing any more of those in the near future? They are awesome.
That's the goal. I can't do them every week, but I plan to do more. If I recall correctly, I did one a week for each opponent in the 2009 season. That might be something worth pursuing as much as our schedule will allow. I'll obviously have nothing for Florida A&M.
I can't believe I ate the whole thing.
I will just be glad to see those returning. Thank you for your efforts. Its great to be able to relive some of those classic games or to experience some that I never got to see.
Welcome Gents! I'm looking forward to your input.
i enjoy vico's twitter and im excited to see what he does with more than 160 characters. welcome to the party and thank you
I like football

Welcome you guys! Nice to see you on 11W now, too!
@Vico: Does this mean no more tBBC basketball game chats?
Welcome! Just so you know, I like plenty of fresh fruit around the house and chocolate chips in my pancakes. Write it down so you don't forget
Love your work
This is a great addition. Definitely enjoyed OHD.
11W was already at the top of the heap... this lifts them even further off the ground.
Welcome to TBDBSOTW Gentlemen!
I love the TBKAB series. Hopefully it continues here at 11W. Welcome guys!
Things to know about Vico
- He never says basketball. It's always "shooty hoops"
- His favorite all time Buckeyes are, in order, Donnie Evenge, Brian Baschnagel's Buckstache, and Aaron Craft.
- He starts every game, regardless of sport or opponent, with a healthy "DIE, MICHIGAN, DIE"
- Think about how much you dislike Alabama. Imagine living there.
- Old TV Guide covers = Money
- Seriously, do NOT disrespect the Donnie in his presence.
Welcome!
So are they, umm, over achieving 3*'s or pure 5*'s?
welcome!

Welcome aboard gents!!! It feels like something epic is brewing for the Buckeyes and us faithful. The football team and 11W are good now but hopefully soon will be quite epic. Make yourselves at home and look forward to your new work here at 11W!!!
OHD will be missed.
Welcome aboard fellas! Vico and Citro....yous guys ain't in the mob, are you?
