    Are the Watt brothers the best group of siblings to ever play in the NFL? The Mannings certainly would be in the discussion. JJ and Peyton are a wash but I. think TJ might surpass Eli when it’s all said and done. Bonus points for the Watts having a 3rd brother who is pretty good as well. If you throw in fathers then it’s probably the Mannings. The Longs would be up there as well. 

    Peyton > JJ. TJ will likely surpass Eli though, but Eli was really good for a bit too.

    Ryan Day brought in a different offense last year, this is their second year in that offense 

    Ok, but it WAS successful for a number of years after Herman left. It's obviously what he's trying to replicate here. He's just finding it harder than he thought to find guys to run all the different parts of the team when previously he only had to concentrate on the offense.

    In the past, one of the biggest issues tOSU fans had with the team was the predictable offense they ran (sound familiar?). Day has made a big difference.

    Just now catching up.... why is that Chris Ash is a no-go on here? Is he a bad defensive coordinator, or is it just because Herman knows him? Scheme fit not there for the Big 12 (well, anywhere these days, really)?

    His Quarters defense was a big part of OSU's dominance in the title year. Fickell and Withers were struggling before then

    Weren’t Ohio state fans happy to see ash leave? Their new guy seems to be better than ash was.

    Nah, Ash has had a good amount of success as a DC. The biggest drawback is his history with Herman. There are also the questions of how much of his success was because of him and is it enough to overcome his below average recruiting.

    Side note: Imagine being so stupid that you watch Justin Fields and Jake Fromm in practice and scrimmages every day, and you go with Fromm as QB1.

    Fields would have been wasted in that system.
