Is Terrelle Pryor Anikan or Luke Skywalker?
Both were originally thought to be a savior but only one brought balance to the force. Ohio State has been forming a death star. Motivated by their recent conquests over UM they are irrationally optimistic about everything. I don’t know how else to put it. They (OSU nation) are drunk with their successes (2002 national championship) and they ignore their failures (multiple national championship game embarrassments). Their offensive line is “block O”. Their linebacker corps is the “deepest in college football history”. The vest is a god. The basketball team is…(I don’t know what they are but all of a sudden a bunch of OSU fans that never cared about the sport suddenly do- like they were awarded an expansion franchise or something). They brag about not being U$C but are blind to the fact that they are O$U (don’t deny this; it’s partially, in a big way, responsible for your national championship and Heisman trophy). Every recruit is a guaranteed Buckeye and then when they are wrong (see Cordale Scott for example) they still act like they still have credibility.
I don’t place this blog’s primary post maker in the above category per say (although the above and below taints some of his info). Still, I, who have been admittingly and embarrassingly been a member of a couple of OSU sites this last month, am just shocked at what seems to be an overwhelming need to make exclamatory statements that will mask a deep down insecurity that appears to occupy their very core.
I mean why can’t OSU fan just say that they have had a great run against UM and appear to be in good shape for the future under the tenure of Jim Tressell. Why can’t they say that they have had national success but they are looking to improve on that aspect of their program? Why can’t they say that the basketball team’s “success” is a nice add-on but not anywhere near the equivalent of football gold?
I guess what drives me the craziest is that everything they speak or write is in pure hyperbole and subject to change. OSU’s 2/3-star DT is William Freakin Perry. Block O = 5 guys!, no 4 guys!, no 3 guys guys!, no 4 guys! Ohio is filled with an incredible amount of players that will be stars in college unless they go to Michigan in which case the ’08 Ohio class was really only 6-8 guys deep. AND most of all they say that Terrelle Pryor is 80/90% a Buckeye GUARANTEED. I think that OSU fan is right about where he will ultimately end up but if Buckeye fan is wrong I will NEVER let them hear the end of it.
As for TP, be a wolverine baby or we’ll see you on the field in Ann Arbor in ’09 and we’ll have our combo Steven Threet/’09 5-star recruit to oppose you. May the best team win…(which must be the Buckeyes of course *insert drunkin Buckeye screams here*).
