Burrow is never gonna play at OSU. Bummer. My guess is he'll end his career playing one year at someplace like Youngstown State.

It's gotta be Monroe. I heard that Coach Solich wants Monroe in his ear twice daily.

True.

This past year has to me brought more insane and ridiculously stupid posts and threads that I've ever seen. Most are similar to the 3rd grade political situation that OUr country is in....na na a boo boo....stick your head in doo doo.

If you think that this program is in satisfactory shape and has produced acceptable results--espec no MACC--after 12 years under the current staff, then you need to examine the play and game results.

My goodness, we went 8-6 this year (worse than prior year's 8-5) despite a slew of All-MAC. Etc, etc, etc.

Some of us don't like it. We voice our opinion.

What--it's only okay for the sFB and their everything-is-perfect to opine?

8-6 this year is NOT worse than 8-5 last year. We lost games this year by 2, 5,6, 7, 7 and 9 points. Two losses were to teams ranked in top 20 at the time. And the loss to Troy was well .... Troy lost to Clemson by 6. And I suspect even you might acknowledge that Clemson is decent. And to quote your never ending drivel ... we did NOT have any "CRASHING LOSSES" this year.

You're welcome to voice your opinion. But try looking at facts and results of each game as you might realize the record alone is not what one draws a conclusion from.

Good point about Troy, Mid70s. They sure were a better and much tougher opponent against Clemson than Ohio State was.

This reminded me - At the beginning of last year there was also a "mystery transfer QB". What ever happened with this guy. I seem to remember there was a high likelihood he was the mystery QB in question, and a good chance of a transfer to Ohio. He stayed at BYU, but it looks as though he did not play this past season.

My man!

I love this post, this point of view! It allows for us to possibly go 4-8 next year but, if circumstances break our way, argue that 4-8 is better than 8-6 in the same way that 8-6 is better than 8-5.

You have invented a whole new system of logic!

That there is the greatest post ever!!!!!!




And continues to match what I said about the SFB's willingness to love quality losses, to view losses as virtual wins.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for yet again running away from your prior posts (1) lousy schedule (2) crashing losses. I FACTUALLY pointed out 2 losses this year were to top 20 teams (and Troy played Clemson to a 6 point loss) and the losses were all single digits with a 9 pointer being the worst. FACTS Monroe .. deal with them!

And no one said losses are virtual wins ... except you ... due to the fact you have nothing factual to refute my above FACTS. But keep trying ... as futile as it is for you.

I thought a little bit about that myself but the timing of it all didn't add up. The infamous tweets all happened on December 24. The deal with Rourke wrapped up a week and a half prior to that. It's gotta be about something else.

It probably can't be Morris since it was reported on Jan 3 that he hasn't interviewed or visited with programs:

http://www.detroitnews.com/story/sports/college/universit... /

And Zaire isn't deciding until April. So Morris and Zaire are out, then.

We can piece together more clues. If it were Rourke the tweets would have mentioned his name (no reason to be cagey about a guy who has already signed). We also know it's got to be a big name to merit "Christmas came early." Plus, it must be a current junior or senior to make the grad transfer possible. Finally, since it hasn't been made public already, it's likely the QB's team is still playing.

Put all that together and...it can only be Deshaun Watson. When you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.
