Boeckman was never giving a full deck of cards in the first place

You would think Ohio State's depth chart would appeal to him. If they don't pick up a QB in this class, they'll have 2 scholarships QBs for next season.

If anything would happen to Terrelle...the season is in the tank.

They've pretty much put all their efforts towards Boyd, with all the other top QB's (just about) already signing. I hope Tressel's in-home withhim yesterday pulled him back here.

The in-home is/was tonight. If Boyd doesn't pull the trigger for Ohio State, look for them to offer the QB from Kettering Alter (Boucher?). Heprobably will never see the field, but they need more than 2 quarterbacks on the team.

And Jammal Berry is not that good....Don't expect him to come in and have an impact like Herron had this year.

Can anyone say Lawrence Maroney?

Im actually looking forward to seeing Hyde more so than Berry.

bucks obviously need an OC, however Tressel has stated multiple times that his ego would never let him hand over the play calling duties

He doesnt call the plays they are ran thru him though. (w/ him being able to 'veto')

 

[usabasketball08]

I haven't watched tOSU play many times this year..Probably about 3 or 4 times..Jim Tressel seemed too passive..


Why is that?

 

[corwinator3407]

Changed the thread title. But with Beanie's departure BOOM! Here comes the BOOM!. Herron and Saine along with the freshman class will be just fine. ButBeanie will be missed.

This offense doesnt seem to fit him so its going to be interesting to see how he develops in the next couple years.

the reason he got benched in the first place... inconsistency....

He got benched after the second game.... just because they got blown out by a better team in USC doesnt mean he deserved to get benched....the reason why he struggled is because their "great" offensive line didnt play up to the expectations and couldnt protect the guy

Remind you, that was without Beanie. It's almost as if Tressel knew the season was over and needed an excuse to change things.

 

[feelmode]

I cant wait till the game at the shoe next year. I hope you guys are perceived as being good next year, because this year you guys did nothing for our schedulebecause everyone just thinks you suck.

Holding on for a W in the Fiesta bowl would have helped a lot, but of course you guys couldnt do that either.

Bingo....Would have had a 1 loss season(probably) had he just used the 2 QB system all year.

[hampisaboss]

Joe Daniels(QB coach) needs to get with Terelle Pryor Asap! Pryor will be good as soon as his mechanics are on point
Heacock and Bollman has to go we need new schemes on Offense and Defense
Tressell has to play his best players and not be mister nice guy.. There is no way Mo Wells should of recieved 10 carries this season

Boom Herron will be crucial he has to have a great off-season
Posey, Washington, Small and Dane S. will have to emerge to help Hartline
O-Line has to step it up big time.. Alex Boone was way overated.
The senior class should be hungry unlike this years class. Malcolm was probably the only one who brought it week in and week out. Even Nader Abdullah playedhis heart out in some games.
Wheres Bradon Saine?

is he turning into Erik Haw

We have to find a 2nd back that can help out Boom...

Its gonna be a long fight to gain national respect but we have the tools..

 

[hampisaboss]

What's up with all this Boeckman talk??

Dude has been in the program for two presidential terms lol he should of known everything inside out
He looked great vs YSU, Northwestern, and all the other sub-par teams.
I believe Tressel made the right move, but thats my opinion
Boeckman was trash vs Michigan last year, OHIO UNIVERSITY, Illinois, LSU, USC and had many other dull moments..
Dude got outplayed by Boo Jackson vs OU
He was a captain his leadership and class will be missed more than his play on the field

 

[champcruthik]

Next year we go as far as Pryor's off-season development goes to be honest.

Posey and Sabino bout to go off in '09

I would compare Beanie's game to Brandon Jacobs, with more speed but less power.

at our incoming class...J. Green, C.J., Corey Brown, Bell, Clarke,Jamie Wood and Jordan Whiting, just to name a few.

I would say Oregon is still very much in the running for Boyd.

 

[wohcttank]

Anyone know when/how I can get tickets for the Toledo/Buckeyes game in Cleveland on 9/19 at browns stadium?

 

[uter zorker]

O$U sucks

naw boeckman got benched cause he was progressively getting worse from the illinois game to the NC and then the usc debacle was the last straw,honestly i dont think he was that good alot of his deep balls would come up short and under thrown. and every knows the o-line sucks so why would tresselcontinue to start a slow weak armed inconsistent qb. might as well throw your #1 recruit in there and see what he is made of and let him develop early so nextyr he will already have the expirience

Boeckman was just not that good, it's not like he made up for his limited skill set with good game management (a la Craig Krenzel). I do feel kinda badthat this was Boeckman's senior season and dude basically rode the pine despite being one of the team leaders.

I would have liked to seen Pryor earlier/more in the USC game because my rationale is I'd rather take my chances with the young talented freshman againstthat fast USC defense instead of a predictable, mediocre Todd Boeckman. Regardless the end result wasn't pretty in that game, but I would say it's allpart of TP's learning curve....

I hate USC and their fans ALMOST as much as the team up north and their fans.


Anyways, I easily see this team going 11-1 or 10-2 next year. I like the looks of the O-line, WRs, of course QB, and RBs will be fine too. D-line should besolid along with secondary, only question I have is LB core.
