Well, the old NFL combine (not unlike the “old fashioned 3 point play” that Steve Lavin mentioned on more than one occasion during last night’s hoops game) has come to an end.
Todd McShay of ESPN says some stuff, jumps on the Vern bandwagon and then talks about some other stuff.
The big news, as far as [...]

Gholston creating a buzz at combine
Hey, Vern!
The recently departed Vernon Gholston (not to be confused with Ernest’s omnipresent off-camera comrade) seems to be making an impression at the NFL combine.
ESPN is impressed with his meteoric rise to success and humble demeanor. Other than the intangibles, Vern is also the new prototype for NFL defensive ends.
Gholston had to be versatile enough [...]
What game?
Scout.com has posted a few photos from this afternoon’s cameo. Here, with Dublin Coffman’s Mike Adams:
Per traveling reporter Paul Germain and the Newark Advocate, the previously mentioned commits that Pryor was with were J.B. Shugarts, Mike Adams, Michael Brewster and Jake Stoneburner.
Pryor and the gang evidently vacated their premium seats before things got ugly on [...]
Pryor back in the 614
UPDATE: Elvis has entered the building. According to Paul, Pryor made a brief, if not premature, entrance as the Buckeyes headed to the locker room for half-time. He exchanged greetings with the Brew Crew before ducking out of view with Tressel.
Doug Lesmerises of the Plain Dealer reports that Terrelle Pryor is in fact in [...]
Schott off the mark again
In an interview with The Dispatch, Bill Jones of the OSU Athletic Dept. says he will be considering a change of policy for seating/tickets for men’s basketball games.According to Jones, 4,000 student tickets–of about 19,000 total–were alloted this season. Half in the, ahem, “Nut House” behind each basket and half in the upper bowl. The [...]
Mullens, Buford named McD’s All-Americans
B-ball class of ‘09 commits B.J. Mullens and William Buford (right) have been named to the McDonald’s All-American squad. Only 24 high school players in the country are bestowed with this honor.
Though both future-Buckeyes are local (Mullens plays for Canal Winchester and Buford is a Toledo boy), they will be on opposing rosters. Big man [...]
Pryor: "I don’t want anymore attention"
At least that’s what the mystery recruit told his gal-pal Mike Farrell in this “hot off the press” interview from Buckeye Grove.
So, it only seems fitting to post about his request.
The article, as far as I’m concerned, could be a composite of several “updates” that Farrell has published since no new information has surfaced. If [...]
Terrelle talks the talk
The PSU blog, Run Up the Score! (as well as Eleven Warriors,) has posted a hilarious photo with accompanying Terrelle Pryor story du jour.I don’t want to steal any of their thunder, but, to summarize, the Boy Wonder got his balls busted during a basketball play-off game by what looked to be a bunch [...]
About that halftime "speech"
Maybe I’m still sore about OSU’s poor defensive showing this afternoon but, with the prompting of this bit in The Advocate a friend forwarded, I feel like some lingering should be done on RichRod’s halftime address.
Firstly, Rich all but publicly acknowledged that his appearance was a direct, albeit long delayed, retort to Tressel’s introduction back [...]
Michigan posts first win over OSU since Feb. ‘04
After 4 meetings on the football field and 3 1/2 basketball seasons, the Wolverines finally got one. The last ‘L’ to Michigan came in the Crisler Arena on Feb. 29, 2004. The leading scorer for the Bucks? Tony Stockman.
Suffice it to say the victory was a big deal in Ann Arbor, with RichRod in attendance [...]
