I am not asking for 14 five stars, let's not take other team's that we beat 10th man and spin it like it is a wonderful pickup. It was a rushed, easy pickup, hopefully it works out. We lost Tone and Jaaron and that's what we come up with. I hope he does well, sorry that I am somewhat skeptical
But you go beat off when the third string TE from Michigan comes to OHIO? There is a lot of consistency in that line of thought.
First of all, Bcat 2 was the one that fell in love with the U of Mich TE. Me and you were in agreement, the post is below. Where me and you disagreed was whether Basham was versatile or not, in which case you cited a fake agent and told a huge lie. After being exposed, you made up some more lies, like me threatening you, when I would never threaten an inferior man or woman. I have and will continue to extend the hand of peace to you. The only way that we can have it is if you stop lying, or stop including me in your lies. It is a good thing that you don't really have a best friend agent that represents Tarell Basham because that could be a violation. It is great that TB proved that he was athletic and smart enough to play multiple positions, that made him more marketable and he should reap the reward of that tonight. We can't claim to be experts and hold our players to unlofty or mediocre expectations and then qualify it with opinions of fake or imaginary subject matter experts, the truth will come out. You are not the only fake expert, who has made false claims. As men and women, we don't like to be wrong and our pride will cause us to hold a position and even back it up with lies if we feel threatened. That sometimes natural defense machanism is our sin nature that we must fight. Some of us don't grow out of the imaginary friends stage, if if it makes you feel better, read Paul Lawrence Dunbar, we wear the mask.

I don't know if he will be a locker room leader since he will only have been here for one year. He could probably be a third down tight end or a backer. Poling is not going to say, you come from Michigan so you can lead our locker room.

The young man graduated Michigan in four years as a student/athlete. He wants to continue his athletic endeavors as a graduate student at Ohio. He is following in the wake of Heitzman and Strobel. Me, I am willing to go way out on that limb and project him as one who will join with Poling as a team leader. No one, well maybe allen, expects Poling to handle the leadership of 100+ 18-23 year olds all by his lonesome. The more leader types in the locker room the better. The more old guys around who are where they are supposed to be, when they are supposed to be, doing what they are supposed to, the better. All those freshmen need to see their example. Better that than relying on coaches to chase them all down. I bet Poling is already missing Reid, Basham, Laseak, Sayles, Brown, Davis, Watson, Cooper, Smith and Strobel, to name only a few.
Stop crowning people because they went to a big school. He needs to come and fit in. We have 15 seniors leading winter practices and spring practice. You are already lining up for car washes and we don't know what kind of skill he has. If he went to Grand Valley State and started, we would not be having this conversation.

I'd actually be more excited if he started and contributed on Grand Valley States roster than his role at Michigan
