any chance you can upload the raw moon shot?  i'd love to play around with what looks like an oustanding photo.

1. Hagelin

2. Hunwick

1 week 4 days ago Was there last night.  He's

Was there last night.  He's probably 6'3" (my height).  They were both totally down to earth, Hunwick's very excited to have gotten the opportunity in Columbus, and Novak's looking forward to Europe.  

Novak thinks that Beilein has done an outstanding job changing his game plan depending on the talent he has, noting Burke in particular (our offense was nothing like a traditional Beilein team this year).  He's incredibly excited to see what he can do with even more talented players, and some extra size in the post.  

11 weeks 6 days ago He may not have participated,

He may not have participated, but he brought in a ton of sponsorship money for the school/team, raised it's already high profile, and helped bring an amazing coach in Bob Bowman.  Not to mention that having the Vanderkay's swimming against him in intra-squad/training meets definitely improved the team itself.

11 weeks 6 days ago Title 9?

I thought the 11.7 scholies was a title 9 limitation? Does title 9 only apply to NCAA sports?

13 weeks 6 days ago Hagerup...

Don't forget the surprised Hagerup snap....

 

15 weeks 8 hours ago Well, I got a different hex from my pantone guide...

Pantone 116 Coated:

 

RGB
255  205  0
   
HTML
FFCD00

Pantone 116 Uncoated:

 

RGB
255  181  17
   
HTML
FFB511

Pantone 282 Coated:

 

RGB
4  30  66
   
HTML
041E42

Uncoated 282 is not right... so I'd go with the first set for maize.

22 weeks 7 hours ago One other possible counterpoint...

USC had documented and confirmed evidence of over $50,000 given to Bush, with allegations of a couple $100k more, from over 3 separate years of play.  OSU had $14,000 documented given in small amounts to several players over one apparent 12 month period, with allegations of possibly $10-30k to Pryor.  USC also had several key witnesses agree to give full cooperation, wheras OSU did not.  I, personally, still think OSU was guilty under the letter and spirit of the law of LOIC, but I do see some non-significant differenes in the meat of the two cases.

35 weeks 6 days ago My several cents

1) Practicing deep throws in practice vs. game is a big deal;  the more accustomed Denard gets to the deep throw in game pressure situations, the better he will get at it.

2) INT to doubled Gallon was a bad read.  However, it was a great play call with the FB McClogan WIDE OPEN on the sidelines.  Again, as Denard gets more experience/comfort in making these reads in game situations, the better he will get at making the right read.

3) MANBALL runs were not working because of the defensive scheme: 8 or 9 (4-3 vs 4-4, generally) in the box every time, LBs selling out to the run, with 1v1 coverage on the outside.  This setup is what made the deep throws more prevelant and necessary (short throws toward the high end of the box are more difficult when you have so many bodies crowding it; you throw over the box or to the outside to counter).  As Denard gets more comfortable making those outside throws, defenses will adjust, taking 1 or 2 out of the box and making the inside runs more successful (i.e. 4-6 yards rather than -1-2). 

4) Denard Waggle Miracles are awesome plays.  However, they are unsustainable (i.e. the reason he was always injured last year was due to the number of times he took shots in similar 1 vs 5 situations... he got yards, but he got tagged).  Just saying that he should always take off in these situations fails to take that into account.

5) RR's offense was prettier, and highly ranked in FEI (certainly higher than we will be this year).  But it wasn't very effective in the Yards-to-Points ratio (9th in total yards, 89th in Yards/Pt @ 15 yds/pt, compared to 69th in total yards, 29th in Yards/Pt @ 10.75). Whether this is a knock just to our defense or to our offense's red zone abilities is unknown (79% last year, currently 100% this year). As the year progresses, we'll see if our hybrid MANBALL offense can keep producing like that.

6) This is a work in progress.  Denard will get better at making reads from under center.  Denard will get better at making the progression of primary covered-->secondary covered--> SCAMBLE! Our team will continue to work on the fundementals.  The defense should get more comfortable as they continue to imploy the SAME SYSTEM WEEK TO WEEK. At the end of the season, or even after a couple games against real B1G opponents, we'll see whether or not this offense works any better.
