About Eleven Warriors
What’s this site about?
This site is the byproduct of two three grown-ass men that put way too much emphasis on college athletics — particularly Ohio State athletics. We hope to be insightful and funny the whole while covering an angle of Buckeye sports that you won’t find in any of the rah-rah traditional press outfits. We’re looking at you Jimmy Crum!
That name sounds kind of cheesy or pompous. What’s up with that?
The name comes from the Buckeye Battle Cry:
In old Ohio there’s a team
That’s known thru-out the land;
Eleven warriors, brave and bold,
Whose fame will ever stand.
What makes you guys qualified to cover the Buckeyes?
Nothing actually. We do eat, breathe and sleep Buckeye football and basketball and have high speed internet connections, so that’s a start. Some of the older Buckeye netizens may remember a site from the mid to late nineties called Chris Spielman’s Dirty Socks. That was our first foray into this realm, but internet publishing capabilities were awkward at best and that site was discontinued. With the advent of blog engines and easier publishing mechanisms, like a phoenix wearing an Archie throwback jersey, we were reborn on August 20th, 2006 as Eleven Warriors.
What if I have a hot tip, will you guys publish it?
We’ll do our best! We’re always on the lookout for breaking Buckeye news or rumors, so follow the link at the top right to tip us off.
