I loved the public shaming…

I loved the public shaming he gave to his barber. The universal struggle with barbers. 

I saw it...I wouldn't be…

I saw it...I wouldn't be shocked if Michigan backed out. Kid really seems like a wonderful young man though. 

I literally just got back…

I literally just got back from Germany. Literally. 

I echo all the comment about Berlin. It's wonderful and you can easily fill 2 full days without leaving the city center. If you're into history at all, I could recommend 2 tours if you're into that sort of thing. 1- Fat Tire Tours. I did an 8 hour bike tour which allowed me to see all of the major sites with a dose of history. 2- Berlin Underground. We did a 3 hour tour related to the tunnels under the Berlin Wall. 

 

I also spent several days west of Frankfurt drinking wine. If that's of interest to you, just let me know and I'll tell you more. 

 

Lastly, DO NOT TRUST the trains. None. 0. 0% of my long distance trains from DB arrive/departed on time. DB is basically every state's turnpike during the summer. Construction galore. 

For what it's worth, last…

For what it's worth, last year's fastest high school 200m sprinter ended up at Kentucky. He ran a 20.64 (Harbor ran a 20.79 last in '22). Also on the football team.

It's fine. Had a few older buckeyes crack dad jokes ("good luck, you're gonna need it!") while a few of the younger fans hurled profanities but at no point did I feel like I was in danger. Kudos of the fans though, that was the loudest stadium I've ever been in...during the 1st quarter. The energy never returned after halftime, and fans started leaving when we were up 2 scores early in the 4th. 

Random: Ohio Stadium seats are much wider than Big House seats. Concessions moved really quick. Was able to grab a water and pay within 20 seconds. 

 

 

Wouldn't this be a problem…

Wouldn't this be a problem for the safeties, if anyone at all? Finding 1 maize jersey streaking downfield on a green field feels like it wouldn't be a problem. 

Let them wear white shoes…

Let them wear white shoes. They'll look faster. 

Is this real? The official…

Is this real? The official accounts didn't post this. I've only seen it posted from a fan account. 

I mean wear Maize either way though. 

 

Edit: It was confirmed MONTHS AGO. My bad.

You may want to decant (or just pour into a decanter, stopping before the sediment comes out) since there could be some sediment, but generally speaking you're probably good to go. You may want to pop it into the fridge for 15-20 minutes-- in my opinion, red wines are best served sub room temp (just not ice cold!).

Not sure if you've flown at all in the last 4 months, but most clubs aren't permitting, "one time passes". United card loses a lot value when you can't use the perk they give you.

Do we need a MGO churning group on telegram? MGO Award Travel?

Consistently confused by Donovan Jeter, who apparently is still on this team. I searched his name and this interview about the draft was posted during the Spring game. 

No disrespect/disrespekt to Seth or anyone with paid site sources as I hope they're right and he's back this fall.

Another Cool Story bro: I…

Another Cool Story bro: I moved to Cincy from Columbus* last year. I was asked about 4/5 times during the season if my "M" hat was Michigan or Moeller (a high school).... 

 

In addition to being anti-buckeye....Cincinnati has to be the world's biggest "high school town". "Where did you go to school?" means high school not college here. 

 

*Columbus is great. Would move back in a heartbeat. 

I've been as an opposing fan…

I've been as an opposing fan several times (ay-ziggy-zoomba). Parking is easy (dedicated lot) and the upper deck is typically curtained off. They recently renovated the concourse areas: Never lines for bathrooms and the concession lines are short. The ushers are old and take their jobs very seriously (just like the big house). 

Expect the marching band to perform script ohio at halftime. 

 

Off topic, the arena is easily 2x too big for basketball and 4x too big for hockey. The atmosphere is garbage. With another prostyle arena 3 miles down the road (that they share bookings with) I fully expect OSU donors to right-size this facility in the next decade.

They played IMG in 2020 as well, which certainly legitimized and added some nuance to the grift...

I followed Yoder until recently simply to see what happens on his account when he gets in trouble (with the university, or sam webb, etc etc) and makes it private (spoiler: he stops tweeting and licks his wounds). I've been around Mgoblog for a damn decade and remember Ace Williams and his other aliases. It's fascinating how far he goes to be the same dbag he's always been.

It's actually a pretty incredible watch, especially if you recall Will Wade's wiretapped phone call and wonder how the F he still has a job at LSU. 

Christian Dawkins came off as incredibly honest and transparent. Obviously he was dirty....but no dirtier than any other person in that world. 

Later the better, in my…

Later the better, in my opinion. Too many times Michigan has pretended to want to do a spring game in April, only to change it to a practice/whatever when the weather forecast shows snow/rain/wind/cold/general Michiganess. Michigan invites recruits to the games and they're in damn parkas. 

Then you turn on BTN the following week and you see OSU's spring game in tropical Columbus and its 75 and sunny. Same recruits are wearing t-shirts and sunglasses..

For once we've swapped with them (they're 4/11). I don't care about gymnastics, or tailgating. Let's see a real game. Impress the recruits, reinvigorate the fan base.

He tweeted that he had a scholarship offer about 24 minutes after Stroud picked OSU. Assuming he's a regular recruit.

Looking forward to TTB's rating because he looks like a white Joe Milton in the exactly 1min49sec of film I watched. Excited to have him on scout team next fall and hope he can contribute after that.

They're all huge f'ing nerds. I say this once a week. It's not a positive, but it's not a negative either. It just is. --That said, I prefer Ace as the witty banter/rapport he has with brian is more important than anything else, in my opinion. To each his own though.

It's unnecessary because...it's dri-fit? Dri-fit's whole thing is that it wicks moisture. Who can sweat this much to keep the shirt wet long enough to achieve the shirt's graphic effect? 

You'd need to jump into a pool fully clothed.

Oh my young man! 

I pray Michigan can find a way to utilize his talents as he seems like a kid that would do really, really well playing against Big12 defenses or in the MAC. Really impressive film (nice speed) considering the level of competition. Ed's went through murderers row to win the state title this season. 

Edit: He reminds me of Tyrell Sutton a bit. Undersized kid that did really well at Northwestern.

DeSales plays a very good schedule, and his tape was VERY encouraging. You cannot teach mentality. I'm looking forward reading/seeing clips about him on the news this fall.

Damn. Thanks for the heads up. Any idea how to edit a post on this crazy website?

Brother of 2019 Prospect John Branham 

Same high school as Trey Burke & former OSU F Jared Sullinger. They play in the Columbus City League which is meh. Not the same level of competition that Taco/Butt or 2019 Zach Harrison will face. Northland is very close to Columbus St Francis DeSales (Prospects Johnson & Velasquez) so it's good to see the block M invading Columbus again. 

Whoa there message board guy,

Whoa there message board guy, no need to get casually defensive. Your passive agressiveness was enough, really. 

You didnt even wait 10

You didnt even wait 10 minutes before taking paywalled info and posting it here. Just an observation. 

Thinking out loud: He early

Thinking out loud: He early enrolled. Assuming he took atleast 12 credit hours this summer, he'll be a sophomore academically after this current semester. Do you think he consulted with an academic advisor/Mama Gwen/coach and realized that he's on pace to graduate after the 2019 Season with an additional 2 years to play should he transfer? A Michigan degree is nothing to sneeze at, and he probably still needs to refine his body before he'd be ready to play at any FBS school. 

What's the actual sticker

What's the actual sticker price of the suit? They run the BUY 1 GET 2 FREE sale all the time...becuase the original prices are outrageous. $850 for a suit? Those are J.Crew prices. $850 for 3 suits? Something doesn't jive... 

 

Nope, I meant me. If we're

Nope, I meant me. If we're forced (by my now wife) to wear the same thing, I'd rather pay $200 for something I could wear again, and again, and again. Renting a tux or suit made no sense for me. --In this instance, I couldn't care less about what my groomsmen want or do. This was literally the only thing I truly had decision making ability on for the wedding. And even then, her wedding colors dictated what I'd be wearing. 

 

My Wheelhouse

It's all based on budget. I wear suits for work, so I opted to have my groomsen buy something rather than rent. 

 

Lowest Cost: Combatent Gent. Just order WELL IN ADVANCE. Suits can take about a month, but I own other items from them that are great. 

 

Midcost: J.Crew Factory. If you catch a sale, you can get suits for $175-215, depending on what color and fabric you're looking at. Ships fast, and if you're in a populated area you can probably drive to one of their outlet mall locations. 

 

Higher cost: Suit Supply. Great suits, but not great for every body type. Not sure how you feel about tight pants or pants with no break. 

 

Macy's: You're basically just shopping off the rack and taking advantage of their sales and promo codes. 

 

Nordstrom: They have a great in house brand. They tailor on site as well. Could end up costing about $400 though. 

 

If you're desperate: Men's Wearhouse or Jos A Bank. Not sure how old you are or what your style is like, but I hate these places. Overpriced, poor quality shit. Huge range of sizes though. If anyone in your party needs a 50 jacket or larger they're probably the best place to accomodate you. 

Air it Out

Syracuse runs the Dino Babers, "FUCK IT GO DEEP" offense. Lots of no huddle 5 wide ball. Not the ideal place for a RB coach looking to move up the ranks. Syracuse was probably more of a personal fit (isnt he from Central NY?) than a professional fit. 

I love how commenters shoot

I love how commenters shoot ideas like these down because there's too much money involved with the current setup (like they ever see a dime of it..) etc etc etc. Right now we have 2-14 team conferences. Frickin' Rutgers is in the Big Ten. West Virginia is in the same conference as Texas Tech. 

Let's embrace things that make sense because I guarantee the money will follow.

Looks like the let the students in systematically. Probably contributing to the problem. The said, there were probably 5500 students drunk on campus saying "omg is it 6 already?" Life comes at you fast.

Unfortunate attempt at humor by 14-18 year old girls, and big fail by any adult who saw the sign before it hit the field.
