#4 Buckeyes Add #2 Rated Center to Top 10 Recruiting Class

By

After his dominating performance at #11 Florida yesterday, there's been a lot of buzz about Buckeyes big man frosh Jared Sullinger, not to be confused with his older brother J.J. Sullinger who also played for tOSU. And neither is to be confused with J.D. Salinger, author of "Catcher in the Rye," although I have made that mistake on occasion. But as big as this year's Ohio … [Read more...] about #4 Buckeyes Add #2 Rated Center to Top 10 Recruiting Class

Buckeyes Jermale Hines Gives Ohio St. a Coach on the Field

By

Chicago may be nicknamed "the windy city," but there's another place in Illinois, about three hours south, reknown for powerful wind. (The "Windy City" moniker actually has nothing to do with wind. It actually originated with New York City politicians condescending to Chicago city officials who talked a big game about the 1893 World's Fair). Zuppke Field, at University of … [Read more...] about Buckeyes Jermale Hines Gives Ohio St. a Coach on the Field

Ohio Bobcat Mascot Attacks Brutus the Buckeye, Gets Dismissed from the Program (Video)

By

If Ace Ventura: Pet Detective taught us anything, it's that violence against mascots is hilarious! I did a lot of tweeting last year during the Big Ten Tournament last March, and people seemed to enjoy the idea of punching Goldy the Gopher in the head. But sometimes it's not a laughing matter, and people get hurt. This is not one of those times, but this situation is a … [Read more...] about Ohio Bobcat Mascot Attacks Brutus the Buckeye, Gets Dismissed from the Program (Video)

Mike Brewster: Ohio State’s Leader Up Front

Ohio State Looking like National Title Contender

By

When the college football season begins in September, there is (if I may quote the Earth, Wind and Fire tune named after the current month) "never a cloudy day," at least when it comes to the expectations of players and coaches. The forecast for the upcoming season is always sunny; everyone you interview at every media day will pretty much tell say his team is going 12-0 and … [Read more...] about Ohio State Looking like National Title Contender

2010 Big Ten Power Rankings
