Jon Joseph Moderator No. 2 Share Posted August 15 Thanks, Steven. OBDers, if you can, check out the Big Ten Network's visit to the Ohio State Fall Camp to see a determined Day, Chip, and a lot of quality athletes with experience. 19 million folks watched the Ohio State at Michigan game last season. OBD and the Buckeyes are both 5-0 coming into the game on 10/12 and it won't be 19 million but it could be Oegon's most-watched game in the history of Oregon football. 10/12 should be an amazing Saturday. In addition to Buckeyes vs Ducks, there is The Red River Rivalry, Ole Miss at LSU, Penn State at USC, and U Who at Iowa.

Two keys for Ohio State to meet preseason expectations WWW.YARDBARKER.COM Coming into the season as the No. 2 team in the nation behind Georgia, and the top program in the Big Ten Conference, Ohio State football is projected to be one of the best teams on the field... Will Howard be better than McCord at QB? I agree this is question No. 1 for the Buckeyes. Injuries as question No. 2? This is endemic to every team. IMO No. 2 question is: Will the O line improve?

NJDuck Moderator No. 12 Share Posted August 16 It will be strange seeing Chip Kelly as Ohio State's OC. Chip Kelly was not very successful at UCLA, but then again comparing the wealth of players he has now compare to UCLA... No matter how you shake it out, OSU's most weaknesses on their team are there QB and OL. Oregon will try and capitalize on. Urban Meyer explains impact of new Ohio State OC Chip Kelly Howard may not be the athlete that Marcus Mariotta was when he operated Kelly's system at Oregon, but per Meyer, the scheme no longer requires a super-athlete at quarterback. "I've known Chip forever. We’re very close, we’ve spent a lot of time together going over the spread offense. And his philosophy back in the day at Oregon as a head coach and a coordinator was go as fast as you can. That evolved when he went to the NFL and it’s really evolved when he went to UCLA," Meyer explained. “He is now the perfect play guy. He is the guy that is going to huddle, take your time and get the perfect play on. That is drastically different than what he was as a head coach at Oregon. I’m anxious to see it.” If Kelly is now looking for the "perfect play" rather than speed, then Howard, with his wealth of experience, is absolutely the perfect fit for Ohio State in 2024 Urban Meyer explains impact of new Ohio State OC Chip Kelly WWW.YARDBARKER.COM Chip Kelly and Ohio State could be a perfect fit together.

NJDuck Moderator No. 21 Share Posted August 25 Around the Big Ten: Ohio State talks revenue sharing, Iowa suspends coach, ‘GameDay’ panelists pick Oregon Last Wednesday, Ohio State athletic director Ross Bjork spoke to the athletics committee for the university’s board of trustees. He discussed a range of topics from NIL — which Bjork previously said the No. 2 Buckeyes spent $20 million on for this football roster alone — to the forthcoming revenue sharing model stemming from antitrust lawsuits by athletes against the NCAA. Bjork said that as a result of revenue sharing — which would allow schools to share up to 22% of revenue with athletes, with most of that money expected to be distributed to revenue sports such as football and men’s basketball — Ohio State expects to lose about 150 athletes with a goal of maintaining all 36 of its varsity sports. This new reality is most likely to impact smaller sports that don’t generate nearly as much revenue as football and men’s basketball, and possibly put some teams’ existence in jeopardy. Around the Big Ten: Ohio State talks revenue sharing, Iowa suspends coach, ‘GameDay’ panelists pick Oregon WWW.OREGONLIVE.COM The Ducks might be focused on Idaho, but the rest of the conference has its own position battles, off-field storylines and challenging non-conference matchups to attend to. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
