Another day closer to Buckeye football.

I'm not saying Clemson's going to get dumped this weekend, but I'm certainly not not saying it, either.

Word of the Day: Farceur.

 IF YOU CAN DODGE PRACTICE... I remember how hype we used to get when we walked into elementary school gym class and saw dodgeballs.

This video is basically the Division I athlete version of that.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Players 4 - Coaches 3

Funny how we have video before the match, but not during. Perhaps Holtmann simply doesn't want us all to see him getting domed with a ball courtesy of Duane Washingon.

 THE FRIENDLY BUSH. Back in my day, The Oval was the stomping grounds of campus legend Bagpipe Guy, but it seems he's passed the torch to a new hero – a kind bush.

 

I'm not going to pretend to understand, because that's the beauty of it – there is nothing to understand. He is simply a kind bush.

 WELL EQUIPPED. I think it's safe to say that officer CJ Barnett has had himself an absolutely wild past few months, but after his time as a Buckeye, he says he was well prepared to handle whatever was thrown at him.

“Ohio State prepared me in several ways. The first being, how to handle adversity. I learned that things will not always be easy and there are definitely times of turmoil or despair, but this is when it is most important to stick to your strengths. Secondly, Ohio State instilled that ‘team’ is most important and to simply do your job. In this situation we are all dealing with, we have to do our jobs and control what we can control.”

"Control what you can control."

That seems familiar. I guess you can take the player out of the program, but you can't take the program out of the player.

 JAMO MAKES HOUSE CALLS. It seems real life Jameson Williams is quite a bit unimpressed with video game Jameson Williams.

I'm gonna be honest, nothing about that clip screams "I absolutely would have scored in real life," but I also don't think I'm in a position to doubt a dude who has done this:

He Gone

Jameson Williams – too fast to accurately recreate in a video game.

 SONG OF THE DAY. "Silhouettes" by Colony House.

 NOT STICKING TO SPORTS. How a woman's interest in her family’s DNA led to a shocking arrest in a cold case double murder... A pregnant woman takes the bar exam while In labor then finishes the test from the hospital after giving birth... A Nazi shipwreck discovery could solve a World War II mystery... Doctors say you actually shouldn't wash your face in the shower... An unknown spyboat washes up in Scotland...
