This Offseason Has Sucked: 2016 Edition

[Wild Turkey]

What about Urban Meyers assistant coach who was a legitimate sex offender and was taking high school kids on campus tours?

Say what? Urban hired Sandusky?

I just don't think Howard will ever be hotter than right now and risks injury. Some guys it's just time to go, some guys can really use the extra year and sme guys are just great college players and that's it.

Howard is ready and I don't see his stock rising that much and the NFL needs quality TEs that can block and catch.

Ask Cardale Jones how good of a rescission it is to stay in college for another year.

He had to do something after seeing how many recruits Harbaugh's sleepovers are raking in.

Apparently sleeping with recruits works better than shirtless, tickle fights at summer camps he is a "special guest" at.

Dude has dominated the off season so far and not in a good way.

Depends on who you ask. Michigan fans seem like that had the Sandusky incident happen to them, they would spin it as a positive because talking about them is awesome. No attention is bad attention.

Who?

I was talking out of my ass, remembered the story wrong. It isn't even remotely close to what I thought happened. Some recruit met a random fan or something like that who took a picture with him and posted it online, the kid ended up not going to OSU. The SportsHoopla made over it I thought it was someone with the program, not some random fan. So I admit I was wrong. Here is the story I was thinking of.

Ohio State loses top recruit due to sex offender

I dont see anything that says he was an assistant coach. The article states no coaches were around when he took pictures and it was at night on campus. Am I missing something?

Cut him some slack he came clean and admitted his misspoke. That is more than 90% of the posters on this bd would do BTW. Made mistakes myself and respect those that admit them.

Isn't that what he was referring to in his post? Said he screwed up.

I didnt read back where he said that. I only read my post and replies.

I've been saying this for years, glad someone else has finally caught on.

First-year starting quarterbacks who can win it all

Ummm no. No Michigan State does not have a first year starting QB that can win it all. The defense will not be there. I would prefer to red-shirt DeWeaver, let him get his feet wet before throwing him out there. I think the 2017 or 18 will be a more likely year for Michigan State to make a run with junior/senior running backs of London and Scott.

As we've seen with Dantonio's teams, first year QB's tend to struggle but they usually start for 3-4 years and by the end of it are developed into something significant. I didn't see any QB play that made me think MSU could win it all next year during that OSU game. They basically just tried not to make a mistake and hoped that the defense could win the game, and that's what happened.

Cook's first season as starting quarterback he went 13-1, went undefeated in conference, beat number 2 Ohio State in the conference championship game, and won the Rose Bowl. Finished #3 in the country.

Cook split time his first year and they only won 7 games...or am I remembering that wrong? It wasn't until year two that he was named the full starter and won 13 games.
