The Front Row

Typical awesome Boarding House. Great info...I've got my "fix" for today. thanks guys!

How I lived with the Boarding House only once a week I have no idea.

Great boarding house.

FWIW I was listening to the local sports radio here in Baton Rouge and the Saints writer for the NO Times-Picayune was being interviewed. The question was asked of him which of the 20 undrafted free agents the saints brought in had the best chance of catching on. He said Dexter Larimore. The reason he gave was they are thin on the line and Will Smith has a 4 game suspension (which was news to me) and he is the only D-lineman they have brought into training camp.

Here's to hoping Big Dex shows them what another former Buckeye D Lineman can do for them. Again FWIW.

Despite being abhorred by our OL recruiting strategy, I remain optimistic (have always been even when things looked bad) that TOSU would pull a solid to great 2012 recruiting class.

Coach Fickell's emphasis on 2013 recruiting is masterful move. Boarding House speculated the number of wins to seal the deal is 11. I think 10 wins is enough for Coach Fickell to earn the job. However, if TOSU should only get to nine wins, the fact that Coach Fickell has already put together a good 2013 recruiting effort would lend him more credibility to keeping the job. Any coach has to prove themselves on the field, but recruiting is a big litmus test for a new coach to show if he is ready for prime time.

Yes it's Bolls territory. Duane told me long ago that Bolls was up there to visit Zach Higgins OL and didn't know who Dymonte even was. Bolls is terrible al looking beyond the current years recruits. It's obvious when you look at our depth chart.

Alliance, Ohio----Just NE of Canton-----Home of Lenny Dawson

Marlington is east of Hartsville, south of Randolph, north of Harrisburg and east of Sebring. Now there, wasn't that easy?

So, its the center of the universe?

Perhaps you have heard of a fullback named William Houston? Well, Junior’s dad played fullback from 1989-93 for the Buckeyes. And you might be able to guess who first season at Ohio State was ’93 (hint: sounds like ‘Duke Trickle’).

OK, I give up ....Who?

Also, Normally, the assistant coach assigned to a kid’s region handles the first communication with a prospect. You can guess whose territory Marlington resides in. Could this person's name be: (hint; sounds like Trollman )

No, that honor would belong to Newell Run on the Ohio River is SE Ohio.

So our OL recruiting strategy finds you abhorrent? Perhaps you meant that you are appallled by our OL recruiting strategy. All the best.
