    Tim Beckman gave a very nice shout-out to the Toledo Rockets football program and their history/tradition of putting out some very good coaches. Loved hearing that.

    Being from Toledo and a UT season ticket holder, and watching what he did here not only in recruiting and with x's and o's, but in changing the attitude and climate of the program, I tend to agree with you--big time!!!

    When asked about how the team was bonding this offseason, he responded by saying that this is probably the first year that there haven't been cliques and everyone has been hanging out more as a team.
    He elaborated that they've been having more cookouts and poker nights as a team, to which Simon interjected that he usually wins. I don't think anyone would dare say otherwise.
    While it's good to hear that the team is bonding more this year, what sticks out to me is that there were locker room "cliques" in previous years. Ohio State teams have never been known for having locker room chemistry issues (that we know about), but the prospect of more team unity is cause for excitement.

    I like those Northwestern Uni's

    Only if he can recruit in the Chicago suburbs. That's been Death Valley for Illinois coaches for a long time. Zook cracked it when he got Juice Williams but he couldn't sustain it.

    I like Beckman a lot. Another good old Ohio coach in the heart of the Midwest is always a good thing.

    Zook recruited pretty well at Illinois, just couldnt win games.
  • Classyposter58
    Jerry Kill looks like he bought that suit on the clearance rack at Mens Warehouse. I mean really Minnesota?
  • vball10set
    figured this was as good a place as any...
