When I was stationed in Oregon fighting forest fires, we had a party at our cabin one night, and I got smacked by a stick. I noticed the smack but not the bleeding. Once someone did notice—the dried blood in my beard came from a small cut but looked like massive head trauma—it took a lonnnng time to get down the mountain to the hospital.

Because we only got to the ER at midnight, the first 2 doctors on call refused to come, assuming someone needing stitches after midnight was a drunk fool. (Opinions still vary.)

Wait. Sorry to get sidetracked by a personal anecdote. What were we talking about?

Oh, yeah. A Bucknuts leader had to go to the hospital because of an accident after midnight. I hope he's okay.

He is damn good at his job there is no doubt. The one thing I will say is that Matt Millen was enamored with WRs. Also OSU hits its peak with WR talent and production and proceeds to lose back to back games to U of M. Its not their fault at all but maybe extreme focus on Wrs and the passing game can be detrimental to ones National Title hopes? Maybe OSU built their program to hang with Bama and Georgia and forgot about the rock part of RPS.

That's not Hartline's call, though. The problem is their defense, and Day just doesn't have the mind for it. He needs someone who's going to actually take the reins and build a real defense. I don't know if I accept the premise of an "extreme focus on WRs". I think it's more likely that they just have a really good WR coach who's developing them well, and they haven't found someone as good at coordinating a defense.

Hopefully he will be fine. It would be a good chance for him to reflect on life and decide he doesn't want to coach anymore.  Time to take it easy and enjoy life.

If fact, he should announce this right away.  The portal is open.  It's only fair to his receivers that they have the opportunity to transfer before the summer.

Atv wrecks and Ohio go hand and hand. This time of year here in southern Ohio it seems like a daily event unfortunately. A kid just 2 weeks ago was on the back of one with his dad, who was drunk or high, hit a guide wire going across a closed road. The boy died, his dad didn't.

Best wishes on a speedy recovery.  We all do things we wish we hadn't.  I hope Brian is back to full health this November when we crush his Bucknuts.
