I know that I'm probably in the minority (and these videos are just for fun), but I can't stand the whole "redemption" and/or "renewal" tone that has been spouted off by the fanbase every single year since 2006. It's unnecessary; stuff like this should be left for the Boise States of the college football world. We're OSU, a blue blood program. Let's let our football do the talking for once (with, finally, a coach who can allow that to happen).
What's with the trend of digs aimed at tress lately? No, the buckeyes didnt win every big game with him at the helm. However, his teams over the last ten years did some serious talking and winning of their own. So please, show some respect.
I know there's a game saturday, and my ass will be there.

He's very good at production, that's for sure. Even got me pumped up.
Figured I'd get some flack if I made this a thread, but a very cool video series has been put out following the Michigan seniors' trip to a leadership training program with the US Navy SEALS. Day 30, 28, 27, 26 are the videos. These aren't shoving Michigan down your throats in anyway. It's more about people and pretty neat to see how the SEALS train and to hear some of their teaching (29 is about a youth camp in Pasadena they put on and 25 is from yesterday's practice).
Kind of find it irnoic that they point out a problem that occurred with the scandal and with Tressel by saying, "no individual is bigger than the institution."
Obviously pointing out not one person should be bigger than OSU.
Well, Buck-I.8, that was a poorly put together list. I'm not sure if #25 was supposed to #1 or what, but they're both top 5 most devastating losses. Half those games nobody even remembers, let alone, is devastated by them. Got to be something better than that out there.
Did you watch the vids?

I forgot what dark, dark years we went through for a decade with Tressel at the helm. Shit man, we had it real rough. Not a decade of consistent excellence that was unparalleled by any more than two or three schools, if that, or anything.
Seriously though, some of us need a reality check or something. We'll be lucky if Urban has close to as successful of a tenure here as Tressel did.
urban has done more with less at other schools. Theres a reason theres saban meyer and everyone else. I dont like the word luck, a coach told me when i was 7 "its crazy the harder i work the luckier i get" I think its safe to say these kids are working harder than ever so i think its safe to say we will be "lucky" enough to have continued if not better success with young urban at the helm
App. State...enough said. Was my favorite part of having to attend a wedding in Evanston with nothing but NW fans and a room full of tTUN fans at the one cool bar we could find. Oh it was fantastic to see their faces as we walked in with 3 minutes to go with Buckeye shirts on.
Appalachian State just beat the M!@#@##N Wolverines!!!!

Standard. Woeful beginning leading to highlight clips with Carmina Burana-esque music.
I was with you until the very last line.

That was sick. He needs to make these videos more often

Now fastward to the end, "The Urban Renewal".
Didn't really follow the yearly themes for '08-'11.
Hail, I'll click your link if you click mine. Fair?

His videos are good, but they are getting old in that they have all been about the same since '09

Yeah, that's what I thought too. If i was a UM fan, App state might be my number 1, so I was confused by the order.
But yeah, I've actually watched those before. I tend to lurk on the 247 UM boards, because fuck bucknuts

Glad you know this based on common propoganda that comes very often at any school that recently hired a new coach, especially one as hyped as Meyer.

Cmon guys he is not God. Or even at the level of what tressel did here. Let him coach before we crown his ass.
