Jonas Mouton with an Attitude:
Jonas is a linebacker. He's got a badass beard. He hits people. We sit outside Schembechler Hall, me with my pen and my notebook, the light of my recorder burning OSU red. I catch him staring at it a few times. Jonas is tired from his workout. He missed his ride home with teammate and fellow linebacker Obi Ezeh. He hasn't even had time to take the tape off his wrists. Because of me, he's now going to have to ride Obi's bike home. Jonas has gone from being less than excited to being a little pissed.

He's really lucky that Jonas didn't plex him IME. We need more linebackers with that kind of attitude. Thanks for posting this, love that our team doesn't like doing interviews and would rather fly under the radar. Big things for this team going forward.

Really though, sign out while you're ahead.
September 16th, 2010 at 7:19 PM ^
Ahead of what? -200 points?
September 16th, 2010 at 4:12 PM ^
Is this... sarcasm?

Reminds me of David Harris, I won't get ahead of myself, that's just who it reminds me of. Who's the best player on the Jets defense (not named Revis) that you actually didn't hear a river of shit talk coming from in every episode of Hard Knocks?

Beards get chicks

Damn Right They Do.

Just a great article. Jonas always showed signs of "getting it", and early returns point to a guy who has finally begun to perform up to expectations. I do like the fact that everyone on the team seems to understand that they just need to keep their heads down, keep working, and leave the frothing to the media.

When he hits people, it sounds different than other hits. It's impressive.

Crappy backup QB or not, that INT on the flea flicker was one heck of a play. That was absolutely textbook LB play in coverage.
September 16th, 2010 at 3:08 PM ^
Important line in there is him talking about the importance of Greg Robinson. As many of us suspected having Robinson take over the ILBs from Hopson has been huge.

That would probably have something to do with Ron not working here since 2007.
