M-Borg vs. THE Flavortown U Thread, Orig. by Buckeye Paul, absconded w/by talent.

Watch it Strangelove.

I know a few things about predictions, even when made in jest.

[iam416]

M isn't quite where they need to be in terms of all B10, NFL caliber talent

It's a little surprising their aren't more contributors in those classes. When I look at OSU's upperclassmen, I don't see gads of highly regarded recruits. Braxton Miller and Curtis Grant (incidentally, the second highest rated player OSU has signed this century--lol). But guys like Roby and Shazier (who was recruited hard by, heh, UFM) worked out. As did Mewhort and Norwell (he was top 100 kid, I guess).

Rather underscores just how f'n awful RichGod was.

Anywho, the talent gap between OSU/M and the rest of the B10 is just getting larger. Now it's a purely a question of developing that talent and coaching it up.

The "wall of flame."

Sweet.

talent, you know this, you troll, you know this .........

The wall of flame, it gets under your skin. If it didn't you'd just ignore it. You don't. You take every hook that's cast out there with some wussified response defending that trash that is osu football.

We haven't had any semblance of the Ten Year War since, well, there actually was a ten year war. That was fun. osu football under coop had Lloyd in its head for the better part of a decade. It was nice for M fans but not a lot of fun. Since 2000 or so, M football has been shit. Osu has feasted.

Maybe give it a year or two but no more, after that, it's gonna be a battle every November. Good times.

Man, I hope so!

The Five-Year War's gonna be awesome.

Isn't this what finally got Jim Tressel banned form the college game for essentially the rest of his productive life? Oh the irony.

"This tattoo was sent out by Maurice Clarett on his Instagram account. Clarett followed up with ElevenWarriors.com by saying it was on some guy he met. If you happen to be that guy, or you know that guy, or you have another portrait of an Ohio State coach tattooed on your body, let us know."

[madootra]

That is fucking creepy.

[Optimus Prime]

No question about it -- OP's great at that. He works it his own style as well as anyone does. I would rather deal with him too, were I you. It's a Wall of Flame to you, but outside Ohio it's a Wall of Truth. There's nothing you can do about it; you're right.

"Son, we live in a world that has walls of flame. And those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? You? You, DSL, you Talent? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Urban Meyer and you curse Michigan. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know: that Jim Tressel's downfall, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives...You don't want the truth. Because deep down, in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall of flame. You need me on that wall of flame."

[Optimus Prime]

That is fucking creepy.

I'm gonna try to look on the brightside, when that 300+ lb endomorph takes his daily constitution, guess who gets to sit in steamy pile of you know what?

This is all-timer stuff, right here. Excellent work.
