Monroe was the one that always got me confused. It was a whole other planet for the rest of that area sort of like Ypsilanti. That's a lot of michigan. A lot of parts that don't fit the hole with a lot of true America in between 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sort of has this lower class perception which may be accurate, but that is the sort of label the people in the Detroit burbs would give as that is the kind of people who live in the Detroit burbs. I know a lot of good people from that area actually. I agree with your assessment and could get into why but I don't want to go too deep down the worm hole on that. I will say your observations are pretty crazy with how accurate. I'm glad Michigan won, I don't care for Ohio State or most things to do with the state of Ohio, but I'm not a Michigan fan either. One game a year I like Michigan. If people ask me who my team is it's always the same answer, the Bills. I do think it will start to get pretty crazy once they merge the divisions. I can't imagine B2B games with Ohio State. Just weird. Edited November 26, 2023 by Mikie2times 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine B2B games with Ohio State. Just weird. I'll leave you with this. Drive from Detroit through Toledo and spend some time along the way in each area just a little bit other get to Ft Fun. Seriously, fort Wayne is the most insane city you'll visit in the Midwest. I don't know if it is because it still feels like 1986 or because it's 1986 mixed with fentanyl and soccer moms. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasternOHBillsFan Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 (edited) My thinking is that if the Buckeyes ever fell off, this whole state would implode... there is literally nothing sports wise to look forward to here right now- even the Steelers are a mess despite winning games. This state has gone so far downhill that even in the summer it's miserable. I'm now firmly in the "Ryan Day must go" camp, because if he couldn't beat That Team with Stroud nor this defense, he won't again with Harbaugh there. Many people are quick to hammer on McCord, but it is my contention that Day set him up for failure by rolling out this short yardage offense most of the year. The play calling on offense was not even remotely up to par and didn't take advantage of That Team's weaknesses. It was like watching Dorsey's offense with an 'aight QB.

I'm not ready to discuss that game yet in any detail, but I'm torn about Day and just about done with Knowles. The biggest thing for me was the lack of aggression and creativity last week. No wrinkles, no blitzes, nothing to get the team fired up and put TUN on their heels. They just ran a vanilla offense and sat back on defense. Screw that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know if McCord has the ability to be unleashed.

I was under the impression he didn’t want to be a HC but I guess there’s a possibility he gone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was under the impression he didn’t want to be a HC but I guess there’s a possibility he gone As you well know, this is what happens when you are a fan of a great team. In just a few years years Alabama lost Lane Kiffen, Kirby Smart, and Steve Sarkisian (who I consider to have the best offensive mind in the NCAA if not all of football). What makes things worse is that Smart and Sark have great jobs and are not likely to return when Saban retires. That said, Ohio State will be fine. They are a great organization and have been forever. They will always be in contention. Good to see you back and I hope that all is well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just talking to a buddy yesterday who coaches at one of the area HS snd knows some guys over at the Woody… they told him the coaching staff already made the decision that was no way McCord was starting next year.

In this particular case, I'm guessing Ryan Day isn't willing to risk his job for Kyle. They have to feel good about a one-year transfer and then Lincoln and Air?

He’s used to a different level of QB. Plus I’m sure Hartline is yapping about WRs leaving if they roll with him again. Speaking of that Fleming is in the portal. Isn’t he like 30 by now? He did have a good gane against Michigan but that dude was literally hurt his entire career Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo716 Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 (edited) Day is on the hottest of seats... And if Ryan Day needs a top five quarterback pick to work with well then he's definitely not the answer ... McCord was an elite 11 QB with 20 scholarship offers he molded... Just because you had three straight five-star quarterbacks with immense success doesn't mean it they all will be These are 20 year old kids and they all do not develop the same And on that note McCord has transferred to SU Edited December 17, 2023 by Buffalo716 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they fire him Honestly there is one rule at Ohio State and Michigan .. Ohio state is beat Michigan and Michigan is beat Ohio State Day has not been able to beat Ohio State for 2 years .. another loss or 2 more in a row and boosters get antsy Harbaugh had a super hot seat before he beat Ohio State finally took... Day needs to beat Michigan next year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
