1:04 and 2:06 are possibly the slowest and least effective spin moves of all time.
October 24th, 2012 at 6:31 AM ^
for pointing that out. I would have never noticed, but now I have had myself a couple of chuckles at Tom's expense.
I would definitely not classify those moves as explosive.
October 24th, 2012 at 7:38 AM ^
You obviously never saw me play defensive end in high school.

true about denard's footwork on the miss to gallon, but you can see that he also throws off his backfoot on the final pass that gets us in field goal range
gotta take the bad with the good
October 24th, 2012 at 8:32 AM ^
On the replay of that, it looks like Denard is fitting in the throw between two defenders and Gallon didn't do a great job of sitting down in the hole. Perhaps that one is not necessarily on Denard.

The Donkey Rodeo and pancake breakfast @ 0:20 is by far my favorite. Gholston is so terrible. It's great.
October 24th, 2012 at 9:17 AM ^
Gholston was completely ineffective the entire game. Either his draft stock is way too high, or Lewan deserves more attention than he's already getting.
October 24th, 2012 at 12:13 AM ^
what?
EDIT: Oh!

My favorite Gholston moment was when he was completely stone walled by AJ Williams.
October 24th, 2012 at 12:40 AM ^
Where's the threat?

You racist bastard.
October 24th, 2012 at 7:04 AM ^
in my opinion.
October 24th, 2012 at 10:07 AM ^
forgave Lewan for calling him names. He didn't even try to break his arm this year.

There are Rotisseries that spin faster than Tom Gholston.
October 24th, 2012 at 3:32 AM ^
By fun, I mean not fun. My dad's rotisserie has some crappy plastic piece in it that always melts after a month or so of usage (obvious design to create the need for further rotisserie purchases). I believe a metal piece was fabricated by my dad/brother to replace it. Not sure what I'm trying to say. I guess Gholston is the plastic piece.
October 24th, 2012 at 7:52 AM ^
That's deep, man.

He had the wind knocked out of his head vs OSU. But other than that I don't know. Maybe an injury during packaging class...

lineman this whole video which i usually dont do (my eyes usually follow the pass/ball carrier) and other than the o-line's excellent play i noticed that denard has really, really improved his footwork in the pocket. he's pretty instinctive at side stepping the rush and sliding in the pocket, etc.
nice to see.
October 24th, 2012 at 6:17 AM ^
Lewan was handling Gholston well all game, and really, the whole offensive line was effective in giving Denard time to work, I thought, as well as opening gaps for a few long runs. As for Gholston, the only sack this year was against CMU and, now and again, I think you actually have to shed a block if you want to actually be effective as an edge rusher. Somewhere around the 4:00 mark, even Elliott Mealer knocks him back a yard or two. Nice to see others get involved in the "Whatever, William" sweepstakes there. Gholston is just not an explosive playmaker, but that's hard when you only sort of have one move.
October 24th, 2012 at 10:22 AM ^
I believe you mean the "Whatever, Tom" sweepstakes
October 24th, 2012 at 6:32 AM ^
You talking about Tom Gholston ?
October 24th, 2012 at 6:33 AM ^
Today's Tom Gholston
Not so much mean mean stride
October 24th, 2012 at 6:54 AM ^
They move Gholston to the other side away from Lewan a lot of the game. Do they do alot or was it to keep him away from Lewan?
October 24th, 2012 at 10:24 AM ^
No, that's just Gholston's position. It has nothing to do with Lewan
October 24th, 2012 at 6:57 AM ^
October 24th, 2012 at 7:05 AM ^
someone should post this over at RCMB and solicit comment. I'd be curious what kind of reaction it drew.
October 24th, 2012 at 7:47 AM ^
There was actually a thread on RCMB on Saturday night after the game bitching about how Gholston is terrible this year and should not even think about going pro. A lot of people in the thread were saying that Worthy was responsible for all of Gholston's success. They even had people acknowledge that he wasn't all that great last year, but had an amazing bowl game which led to the slurp fest this offseason.
Fail!!! Replied without reading the whole thread and the response directly below yours says the same thing as mine. Apologies
October 24th, 2012 at 10:28 AM ^
"there was a thread on RCMB bitching"
October 24th, 2012 at 7:14 AM ^
Even the lunatic homers at RCMB had a thread after the game about Gholston being pwned by Lewan, well except for the few who complain after every game that the refs aren't fair, they hate State, and if they called even half of the obvious holding calls, State would be undefeated and Gholston would be an All American.
(Btw, their is an editing issue in the OP.)

Watch the Omameh block starting at 1:24. He gets tripped from behind and continues blocking and driving Marcus Rush back while he's on his knees.
