Man Crush on Coach Solich. Loved that quote. Maybe his best since he has been in Athens.

VIA Athens Messenger

Ohio coach Frank Solich figured his team would be a target this season after winning the MAC East last fall. Now, the bulls-eye on the Bobcats' back is a little larger. Solich said the 'Cats situation isn't unlike the one of a fictional character in a recent DirecTV commercial.

In the commericial, a man gets an eye-patch and as a result has to prove he's tough enough to wear it.

"You know how (the commercial) goes?" Solich asked. "When you get an eye-patch, people think you're a tough guy. When people think you're a tough guy, they want to see how tough.

"Well, we got the eye patch," he continued. "Now we'll see how tough we really are."

LOL

I love the way Solich used it as well.  I'd like to see OUr guys start the campaign with a nice win at PSU, and then home blowout against NMSU.  That'll get the national attention started.

How long until the green and white eyepatch with the Ohio logo comes out?  Would love to see a "patch out" at Peden - everyone with an eyepatch.

Love the patch-out "eye-dea".

Just hoping the Cats don't end up in a roadside ditch at the end of the season.

Eye gotta have me one of those patches...  

Laughed my butt off when I heard this.


Does anyone have a transcript of Franks media day.  I can't  get my ESPN 3 to work.

Pete,
That's plain, freakin' awesome.  Wasting all these hours on this site does pay off for me.  i found a new desktop.

I can also already see the Rod Gilmour ESPN pre-game feature on the "eyepatch" with Rufus, the OZone and the 110 all wearing their patches, random shots of bar patorns up town enjoying a leisurely beverage - all with eye patches. This is how we roll at ArrrHIO

If you don't enter with the intent of getting an eyepatch, you don't enter.

I know one of the cheerleaders very well.  I'll make sure she is aware of the idea... 

Love it.
