Daily Nugs 2.2.2010
While there is preliminary speculation that Seantrel Henderson will commit to Ohio State on Wednesday, other schools are still speculating that they could still be in the race. I'll put my money on the red and gray sweater vest. The headline could read something like "Terrelle Pryor Elated to be Protected by Highly Rated Tackles Andrew Norwell and Seantrel Henderson for the Next Two Years."
Buckeye fans are still nervous about Tressel and some unanswered questions regarding his tenure:
This is, however, a crucial year for Tressel. Not in regards to job security, but in three key areas: Can he develop Pryor? Will the Buckeyes live up to lofty (preseason Top 3) expectations? Can he win a pivotal game against a Top 5 team?
Wide Receiver Bryant Allen is now moonlighting as a point guard for the Gopher basketball team. Although the Gophers lost, Allen appears to be a solid addition to the team:
The 6-foot, 160-pound Maplewood, Mo. native was a pretty accomplished high school player while averaging 25 points, four assists and four steals a game for Richmond Heights as a senior. He shot 51 percent from three-point range and ESPN.com actually ranked him as the No. 37 point guard in the nation. Allen also finished his career with 2,632 points, fourth in St. Louis-area history behind basketball legend Bill Bradley He has the state record for career steals (527).
Royce White is quitting again...this time for good. Perhaps a stint playing in Europe with some of the stereotypical rough-and-gritty Eastern Block players who freely swing their elbows could be his next stop.

Did I just miss
Ohio State winning the Rose Bowl for the first time since Bill Clinton’s first term?
Didn’t they just go 11-2?
Haven’t they played in BCS bowls the past 4 years?
Didn’t Pryor just pick apart Oregon with a bum knee?
What an insufferable fanbase.

For the record
We Buckeye fans who have been around the scarlet/gray for our whole lives do NOT have fears and concerns like that.
The ones who whine and bitch about Tressel and Pryor are the ones who do not understand football, and most likely only watch the games 2-3 times a year.
We are embarrassed by those fans, especially when they spout their doomsday nonsense all over the internets.
Also, we do not consider those types to be fans of Ohio State….they’re just idiots who run towards the light at the first sign of success, and run towards their computers at the first sign of trouble.

I would be happy with winning seasons, bowl victories and occasional rivalry wins.
These Buckeye fans are just insane.

minimum
I expect at least one rivalry win every year, a bowl game 4 out of 5 years with one out of the 4 a great bowl game.

whoa, whoa whoa
slow down there. How about a winning record 4 out of 5 years and the bowl that isn’t the worst Big Ten eligible bowl. :)
what you say here can, and will, be used against you

I did say that what I wanted was the MINIMUM.
I’m thinking we have to win the Big Ten in order to start getting a better bowl bid when we go 8-4 or 7-5
