Probably? I have seen LBJ at a dozen Zips games at the JAR and at the Q during the MAC tourney, I have never seen him at two OSU games.

They may have crummy Bud Light, but it won't be cheap.

I was pretty sure this would happen eventually, I think they just didn't want any "heat" when opening it up new. From now on, I'm just getting dropped off at Lot 9, and using the designated driver program. Is Keener giving the alcohol training class to employees? Source: here. • Wristbands will be required to purchase, and will be distributed at a separate identification stand. • IDs still will be checked at the concessions stands with every purchase, and a wristband must be shown. • A maximum of two beers will be sold per transaction. • Beer sales will conclude at the end of the third quarter. • Beer will be sold only at stands around the concourse. • The same employee will check identification, collect money and then serve the customer, in that order. • All employees who serve will have completed an alcohol training class. • An alcohol-free section of the stadium will be established. • Responsible drinking will continue to be promoted. • Designated driver programs will be established and promoted. • Additional staffing, including security and clean up, will be hired as necessary.

We are getting worse!?!?

Come on, BG is beating us...seriously ZN. Step it up.

Consider what Hugo mentioned. In this offense, a lot of times picks are not the fault of the QB, the receiver doesn't make the proper read, the QB does. He throws it right to a defender where the WR should have been. Think Neil O'Donnell to Larry Brown.

This is good info to know. I remember when Kevin Gilbride come to Pittsburgh under Cowher to coach Kordell and the offense. Gilbride run an offense where the WR and QB had to read the same thing at the line. It requires a great understanding of the offense (and opposing defense) by both. Bad fit for the Steelers fans/Cowher/Kordell. Apples and oranges to what is going on at Akron, but I now understand why coach Bowden brought in a QB that understands the offense. Thanks Hugo. PS I would LOVE to see the playbook. That would make it really fun to watch games for me.

Congrats to Janoris, playing for Jeff Fisher is a good fit for him. Funny story. I'm driving to my softball game last night listening to NFL radio. Adam Shine, Pat Kirwan and Gil Brandt are interviewing Janoris. Jenkins was asked of the popular comparison between him and troubled cornerback Pacman Jones, a draft choice of Rams coach Jeff Fisher when he coached the Titans. When it was suggested that Fisher liked Jenkins because of his similarity to Jones, Jenkins told SIRIUS XM NFL Radio, "I mean, no, because I never shot up a strip club or nothing like that." Even after they come back from a commercial the crew repeated his quote and laughted. Funny that the USA today picked up on the comment. I laughed all night about it. "I ain't got nothing to prove"

That's the longest article I ever read to find out he had rotator cuff and tendonitis issues in the minors. Not a good thing for a 30 year old. That's right when I started have issues, and T-Sizzle never drilled me under my arm.

Colt to GB for 6th rounder

McCoy's Days as Brown Seem Numbered

I heard he has a hi-top fade now.

MP3 found here Highlights: Good time to step in. We realize we are the bottom dwellers of the conference. Have to start from scratch, I have never done that. Great acceptance by the players. They are buying into system. Committed to following through. Bad wrap of not recruiting locally, kids want to win. We sell hope and excitement. We need to get kids on campus to show them the wow factor. 100 yard practice field is invaluable for many reasons. Not much we haven't heard before, but it is still fun to hear someone speak intelligently about the team I root for.

Peter King Tweet I know it's bizarro world, but I'm hearing some noise about Janoris Jenkins at the bottom of round one. This draft can't come soon enough.

Sports Illustrated interviewed the CEO Brian Grey on that very topic in 2011

I'll be back, but is "back" the right word? I'm not sure I left? I'm hoping that Bobby Bowden will be there as well since he is a big golfer. For those that enjoy playing different golf courses and haven't played The Quarry Golf Club, I think you will enjoy it.

Did Tressel get a survey?

Thomas Plummer, Nate Robinson, and Ryan Bain were all four star recruits that played for the Zips. Starting to see the point of Andy's article?

Article by Andy Staples of SI If Peter King picked the first round correctly in his Mock Draft last week, nearly half of this year's newest crop of millionaires will have played high above recruitniks' predictions. Fifteen of the 32 players in King's Mock rated three stars or fewer out of high school, meaning evaluators felt they would, at best, be solid contributors at the FBS level. So how did the recruitniks misjudge so many players so badly? They didn't. They misjudged a few players, which is to be expected when trying to project how 17-year-olds will fare as 20-year-olds. After last year's draft, writer Matt Hinton broke down the numbers, and they backed up the star ranking system's relative reliability as a predictor of success in college and beyond. If 15 of 32 earning three stars or fewer sounds like a lot, consider the fact that from 2003-08, Rivals.com ranked 208 players as five-stars, 1,807 players as four-stars and 13,862 as a three-star or lower. In other words, two- and three-star players made up 87.3 percent of the players Rivals ranked during that period. Meanwhile, four- and five-stars -- of which King's Mock included 17 -- made up only 12.7 percent of the players ranked during that period. So, if the numbers hold, 53 percent of the first-rounders will come from the top eighth of the recruits.

Coach Bowden addresses as much as can be expected at this time of year in this interview about halfway through.

Second best thing I have read in this thread. I mentioned last year in my criticism of the QB play, that if I were QB, I would throw the ball to Suel 14 times a game. Somebody might think the same this year.

Thank you Paul (4 of 9).
