Catching Up with Jaleel Fields: The Game Visit

2014 Aliquippa (PA) Senior High School DT Jaleel Fields is a prospect that the OSU staff has been in constant contact with.

Looking Ahead to 2013

Typically after polishing off a 12-0 regular season capped by taking some revenge out on your archrival, fans would be lining up for a conference title game with national championship hopes on the line.  Not this year.  Not for this team.  We're perhaps still a bit hungover from w...

12-OH: Thoughts on 'The Game'

Drama before the game Didn't like #26, Michigan FR Dennis Norfleet, getting in the face of Bradley Roby. Norfleet isn't even a starter (unless you count starting kick returner) and he's INITIATING butting heads with one of our star defensive players.  He was looking to cause...

The Dying Throes of BCS Chaos

I write this early Sunday morning, which is probably a bad time because about nine hours or so would allow greater certainty of what is to come.  However, I want to look at possibilities, so allow me the room that I might put on some rose-colored glasses.  We can all laugh at me later. At...

Is Post-Season Ban Beneficial to 2013 Buckeyes?

It's in the books. The 2012 Season for The Ohio State University is over; unblemished, unscathed. Our Buckeyes wont see live football action for 9 months. Go ahead, get your old lady pregnant now, by the time she is screaming out that puppy, the last time we saw the field will still be that wond...

The Game

My father is the reason I went to Ohio State.  He graduated from Ohio State in 1969.  When I was 8, he started taking me to the local alumni club in Houston, TX to watch the games.  By the time I was 18, I was brainwashed.  Like many father/sons, we didn't communicate well....
