Wut? Shocked by this. I had assumed that this post would be about the big recruiting announcements tonight. Nothing happens by accident at WHAC (right?), so this may mean that Tate is being quietly encouraged to consider a different position. That, plus a potential Burrow transfer, could mean the end of the running QB era for a while.

Rich Rod was never really considered a "high character" guy -- questionable circumstances around his departure from WVU and a practice scandal while at Michigan are part of his story -- so I guess I'm not completely shocked by these allegations. AZ seemed like a good change-of-pace landing spot for him; I was pulling for him to succeed out there. Too bad he couldn't get out of his own way. Miles is one of only a few realistic HC options that would be considered an upgrade for Arizona.

Memorable picture from a memorable game.

Six championship games in nine years. Man, what a run.

#78 would look good in the red, white and blue.

Sooners o line looks enormous out there.

Word.

This is so absurd

WHO DEY THINK DEY GON BEAT DEM BENGALS

Hahaha

DALTON

WHO DEY!!

This is unreal.

C’mon, Dalton!

You live with the Bengals; you die with the Bengals.

I need TD from the Bungholes!

My favorite rivalry. Always and forever.

Having more good teams than anyone else should not be disqualifying. The opposite, actually.

B1G is flexing on this bowl season. Kind of a joke that not a single team from the toughest league in college football was even given a chance to compete in the playoff. And I don’t say that as a Buckeye homer because I did not expect them to get in nor do I think they had a championship quality offense this year.

I'd worry about another 2015 Jones\Barrett situation in that scenario. My preference is to keep it simple and let Wilson run his offense through Haskins--and let Martell sit and learn for another year--but we'll have to see how it goes in camp. Martell seems like a pitbull on a chain just begging to be let loose.

Really nothing left to say about 2017. On to the next one. I'm also Team Haskins, but I think it will be an interesting spring/summer in the QB room. There must be a reason why Haskins couldn't beat out Burrow head-to-head last offseason - recall that Haskins didn't get named #2 until Burrow got injured.

Ugh. I’d get it if this was some random bowl game, but USC is a big time matchup and a very important game for Ohio State. Zeke and Bosa playing against ND in 2015 pretty much means that everyone should play in every bowl game. On top of that, Urban has been promising for a month that everyone will go, and earlier this week Billy Price was insulted at the mere suggestion that someone might sit this one out. Weak move if true.

You know I’m with you on JT. I love the kid, and I’m ashamed to admit that I told my college buddies this week that the team should leave JT in Texas where they found him after the game. It’s time to move on.

I can easily envision a scenario where Ward sits down for Jeffrey Okudah tonight.
