14 weeks 5 days ago I think it's important to

I think it's important to remember that kids like Clowney don't come around too often, and for players of that level, college is merely a stepping stone. That's not to say that college football doesn't matter to them, but it is merely a stepping stone for these guys.



It's also important to remember that there are 84 other scholarship players and numerous walk-ons on every team and for a majority of these guys, playing for the team and for championships are very important, because come their senior year, it's likely to be the finally time they play the game they love.

Exactly what they wanted to with that commercial I'm guessing. People are no doubt still talking about it this morning.

I'd say pretty slim. I'm reading this piece as a way to take some of the heat off that they are no doubt feeling. By telling the OHIO faithful that they are still in play, they're hoping the fanbase will cool down a bit.

FWIW, I'm not the one who said he was angry...please look three posts above yours for that. My point was that I can't understand how professional athletes can jeopardize their careers with something like smoking pot. It would seem that you would have too much on the line to take a gamble like that.

And as far as your comparison - we're not really comparing students drinking underage to professionals taking illegal drugs are we? I smoked pot in college too...but guess what? As a pilot, I have to submit to random drug tests at my place of employment and therefore, no longer smoke pot.

1 year 7 weeks ago While I can agree that there

While I can agree that there certainly are many worse things they could be doing, the fact remains that these players KNOW that if they are caught doing it, they're going to get into trouble/get fined/face suspensions.  Knowing this, why would you ever put yourself at risk like this?  It simply astonishes me and yet it continues to happen over and over again, and always will.

Case in point - Mikel Leshoure.  If you have to resort to SWALLOWING the pot you possess just to avoid getting into trouble, perhaps maybe you shouldn't be messing around with the stuff...just a thought.

I'm convinced he could pull in 11 MGoBloggers and manage to put out a serviceable defense.

1 year 9 weeks ago I could listen to this man

I could listen to this man talk for hours.

1 year 9 weeks ago Exactly - agreed 100%.

Exactly - agreed 100%.  Assuming this is even true, this would lead me to believe that the coaches have a lot of faith in Bellomy to run the ship in the (likely) event that Denard has to come out for a period of time.  Get Gardner out wide and see what he can do.

1 year 9 weeks ago Did you see something in

Did you see something in Gardner that I didn't see?  He didn't exactly shine while he was in the game last year.  This is by no means a knock against him, and he could actually prove to be very effective if given the keys for an extended period of time - my point is that we haven't seen anything to say that he is a huge improvement over Bellomy, who by all accounts has done a tremendous job in practice.

I could certainly see a situation where although we may take a small step back at QB with Bellomy in there, the team is ultimately more balanced if Gardner is out wide with Bellomy under center.

1 year 9 weeks ago I really don't see the

I really don't see the coaches taking him away from the quarterback position as much as they are simply trying to find a way to get the best athletes on the field. I honestly like this denard devin combo more than what was run last year when we saw both on the field together.

1 year 10 weeks ago BOYNE courses

If you've never golfed the BOYNE courses, I would recommend checking out The Heather and Arthur Hills courses at Boyne Highlands, and The Monument at Boyne Mountain.  Hole 13 on the Arthur Hills course offers one of the most picturesque views of any hole I've ever played.

1 year 12 weeks ago This raises an interesting

This raises an interesting situation for the coaching staff. Assuming they've filled the OL recruiting needs, do you continue recruiting the other top OL on the board? Let's face it, there is still a year until NSD and a couple of these kids may have a change of heart between now and then. If that were to happen, it would be nice to still be in contact with the other guys on their board.



Either way...what a great situation to be in!

LOUD NOISES!!

1 year 16 weeks ago posted from iPhone

Really? It wasn't a good thing that we brought in so many quality recruits early and are going to finish with a top ten class? Id say that's a good problem to have...it certainly sucks that we missed out on some big time recruits but like Hoke says, you're not going to bat a thousand...even if we don't get another commit we still have a heck of a class coming in.
