The Front Row

I love Fickel as the guy. He has helped run the most important part of our success, Defense. Great recrutier. If he can get a young aggressive Offensive coordinator in there, I think we can have success for many year under him. The only thing Meyer gets us is ESPN off our back becuase they love him.

LoL Major violations. YOU are a damn idiot. How about his players always getting arrested. JT had a violation and it was not major. And if you think the school didn't know what Tress knew you are a bigger idiot than I thought.

Just my opinion but the NC game we lost to Florida would have been alot more interesting had Ted Ginn not been injured on the opening kickoff (for a TD). When he was lost, Fla. had an extra corner, LB, or safety to blitz on almost every play instead of double teaming Ginn. We still may have lost, but that injury was a game changer.

Would Ted Ginn been able to block Derrick Harvey and Jarvis Moss while also playing defense and stopping the short intermediate passing routes that they completed with ease against Heacocks 3 man front?

No Tedd would not have. And people that say it was the D and not UM's offense, go watch that game. The offense scored at will on us all night. It's like our D wasnt even there.

I want Urban Meyer as the next OSU coach as bad as anyone on this board, but it bugs me when people post Tressel won with Cooper's players. If you say that , then you have to say Urban won with Ron Zook's players because he was only in his second season with UF when he beat OSU.

I agree Alpha. Urban has been one of the most successful coaches in the past 10 years. It just bugs me when people say Tressel won with Cooper's players and other coaches get a pass. Many fans complain about Tressel's boring offense and buddy coaching system, but you can't deny his results. I don't think people truly understand how special the last 10 years have been. The only way I see the success staying the same or better, is if we get a coach like Meyer or Saban. And we have no chance with Saban.

I'd kinda like to see if Luke can coach before I give him a multiyear contract. I mean, I'm pulling for him but so far as I know his major college record is 0 - 0, I'd like to see some digits in the first column before I give him a contract extensiion. Notice I said nothing about the outcome of digits in the second column, he's in a tough situation with a lot of young BUT talented kids, let's see what he does with them, we know that UM is a winner and I would like to see him as a tOSU if Luke cannot do the job. Luke's not coming in with an empty cupboard, give me a break Musexcuse, and he SHOULD do well, let's see if he does and then go from there.
