In consideration to be the top pick in the draft—a huge contingent from Carolina are coming tomorrow, about 120 NFL representatives in all—-it’s the biggest “job interview” of his life, and he’s hanging out, by himself, watching OSU softball. There’s something awesome about that

It’s really bizarre to me what’s gone on with Justin Fields. From the false narrative about his work ethic to leaked private medical information to bogus character questions, he’s unfairly become a pre-draft punching bag. Here’s hoping the kid makes a lot of people look foolish

If I were on the CFP committee, I would tell the Fiesta Bowl to fix your turf, or you're out of the bowl rotation. Too many guys, on both teams, slipping and sliding all night. Playing such a huge game on a field like that is unacceptable.

Ohio State has not lost more than 2 games in a season for 10 straight years now. Previously, the longest such streak at OSU was 5 years (1972-76.) I get it..In this era, failing to make the playoff is disappointing. At the same time, this current run is unprecedented. Enjoy it.

The last time a Buckeye won the Heisman in 2006, Ohio State, on the first Saturday in November, visited a 2-7 Illinois team, and won an ugly 17-10 game. High winds limited Troy Smith to just 108 passing yards, with 0 TD’s and 1 INT. Maybe history will repeat itself for CJ Stroud

First of all, this is 100 percent incorrect. It's an Ohio State Athletic Department suspension. Second of all, blaming the coach or the school for "crippling the team" because they have standards athletes are expected to meet is kind of misguided, don't you think?
In benching star center Kaleb Wesson for a third straight game, Chris Holtmann has crippled his own team, despite excellent effort from the young Buckeyes.

Urban Meyer finishes his Ohio State career with an 83-9 record. He went 5-2 in bowl/postseason games, with a national title, & victories in the Sugar, Fiesta, Cotton & Rose Bowls. He went 25-5 vs ranked teams, 7-0 vs Michigan & won 3 Big 10 title games. Quite a 7-year run.

It’s amazing how quickly analysts line up to piss on a top 10 win. Was it perfect? No…Do they have weaknesses that must improve? Yes…but my heavens it’s incredible how fast the narrative became “Well…Penn State’s not that good”…instead of—“that’s a big win for Ohio State”

There were a host of calls and/or no calls that I felt, went against Ohio State. The biggest, in my opinion, was the blocking foul on Bruce Thornton with 6:00 left. That’s a charge every day of the week and it would have fouled Shannon out of the game. Game changing call.

Let me take a swing. It’s not intended as a slight. I’ll bet if you time the words, Dwayne got more coverage. Plus, 3 at same time is an unwieldy interview. Two is max. They are playing each other. They’re likely 1-2. Simple as that. Never cease to marvel at what bothers people

It’s OK to critique or even be angry about the Buckeyes loss. What’s not okay is to use social media to post hateful comments to kids who played their ass off all year but happened to make mistakes & miss shots at a bad time. No one is more devastated than they are. It’s pathetic

I'm good with arguing in favor of Coach Holtmann & the state of the program but stop with the "Matta's last 2 years" defense. You know what else Thad did? 5 Big 10 titles, 4 tournament titles, 5 Sweet 16's, 2 Final Four's & 1 national runner-up. None have been done since he left.
I understand Ohio State fans are frustrated with not going past 1st weekend of NCAA tourney under Holtmann, but Thad Matta didn’t even get to the tourney his final 2 years in Columbus.
Holtmann is 117-64, 60-45 and has gone dancing every season.
Don’t be dumb and run him out.
