Kiper

[pup]

Just looked over his top 5 seniors and juniors at each position. Call me crazy, but either he missing something or the Buckeyes are in trouble.

Guess how many Top 5 guys they have in the 2 classes, combined, for all posiions.

[furls]

Kiper is an idiot. I havent seen the list, but here are a couple of guys:

DE: Vern Gholston
LT: Alex Boone
LB: Laurinaitis
CB: Malcolm Jenkins

He is an expert only is as much as ESPN says he is. He looks right on draft day because he continously changes his big board based on the information or misinformation of the NFL GMs/scouting department. It generally has very little to do with how good the players actually are, but is more along the lines of who will go where.

Buckeyes defense will be VERY good this year without a lot of hype, reminiscent of 2002.

Shit, Rehring, Chris Wells, and Robert Rose also could be breakthrough guys that play at a very high level this year as well.

I can't wait for the season to start. That Florida loss still stings.

Rehring, Boone and Barton have something to prove as they all got exposed big time by the Florida speed rushers.

If I had to assign blame to any particular players for the "Disaster in the Desert" it would land squarely on the shoulders of the three aforementioned linemen. They really sucked in that game, and they are the reason that the offense never clicked.

I wouldn't be too hard on the players. They played a role, but Meyer's coaching is what really got them. I'd say Tressel bears the most guilt on the Ohio State side for that loss and Meyer deserves a lot of credit for how he used his players. The talent level between the teams was fairly even with Florida being faster. The playcalling, however, was much better on the Florida end. It would have been a better game if Smith had gotten better protection because he wouldn't have been so flustered, but that was far from the only problem.

If you read my wrap, I was brutal on the coaching for failing to adapt. It wasn't so much that Meyer outcoached Tressel and his staff, it was that tressel and his staff failed to coach/adapt at all.

[OSU Bucks Crazy]

We will be fine this year. Kiper is a re re. If he had any knowledge of the game he'd be working for an NFL team. Not ESPN. Cant wait till Wisconson.


GO BUCKS!!
