Will Meyer be left with scraps at OL?

  • ahoyfrmmi said...

    Take your pick! roflmao

    We got Bielema-d!

    Add in Cam Hunt as well, apparently he's down to Oregon & Cal -- he was a long-shot, though. UM got Magnuson last year, OSU got Baugh this year, but doesn't seem like the B1G recruits the West Coast very well. Not making excuses, I would have liked him on the team, Skipper as well. I wouldn't be surprised to see OSU take a minimum of 5 OL in the 2014 class (got Jones, just offered Trout, wouldn't be surprised to see a few mid-range 3* OL in the class next year just to fill things out).

    Did I just witness a Buckeye owning up to Meyer getting scraps at OL? Holy shhhh.... /thread.

    I want to make it known that Steve Lorenz (Tremendous) is the reason my trial month became a permanent membership. Smart move 247.

    BUMP for Dan Skipper going to Arkansas

    Not really a big surprise....The OL coach at Tennessee, where he was committed, went to Arkansas to join BB's staff. So the kid committed to the coach again. Would have liked to have had him at tOSU, but he made his choice, good luck to him, no hard feelings.

    This is why dukeluke is by far the best Bucknut who posts over here. The guy is realistic and never starts shit.

    Dukeluke, please keep returning to this board, we like you.

    Much appreciated! I don't come over here to start things, I just like to come here and talk shop with some rational people. Besides, one of my older brothers is the biggest Michigan fan in the world--we get all of our OSU/Michigan angst out on each other hahah.

    Not to mention, Ann Arbor has my single favorite place to eat in the entire world: Zingerman's. My personal theory is that Michigan brings 2*, 140lb WRs to town, and by the end of their visit they've eaten their way up to a 5* 300lb OL. So I could never hate on the University of Michigan or the Ann Arbor area in general.

    I'm currently eating a Zingerman's sandwich, not to make you jealous or anything.

    Yeah okay, not with scraps on the OL. Stupid bucknuts will be stupid.

    Trust me loosing out on Skipper and most likely Hunt really hurts. It basically means in 2014 we will only have 3 true tackles on the roster who aren't freshman. But the point is still valid just more like Mizzou 1% OSU 30%

    You are saying that OSU has a better than 1 in 4 chance of winning an NC while Elliott is there? Pfffft.

    I am saying over the next 4 years OSU has a 30 percent chance of Winning a NC. Is that really that crazzy?

    Over the next 4 years what would you put UM odds of winning the NC?

    I'm thinking its very high.

    How many NCs have you won in the last 40?

    EDIT: I'd put the odds at 10% and even that is higher than I want to go.

    Ridiculously high.

    I think OSU has the best chance in the big 10, and I would still put their chances at less than 5%. I would Michigan's at maybe 2%.

    Over the last 40 years 1 2002. Since 1960 4.

    When Urban Meyer was at a school he actually had a ligament chance of winning a NC, UF he won 2 from 2005 - 2010.

    30 % chance of winning a NC over 4 years = OSU should win a NC over the next 13 years.

    Factor in consensus back to back top 5 recruiting classes and the fact that in 2014 OSU should see the same with a weak BIG makes OSU and UMs chances of landing in the NCG pretty decent.

    UMs is much higher, 2% over 4 years = 1 in 200 years

  • You do realize we would have probably played in NC game this year if we didn't trade stuff for tats and lie about it. Now obviously we would have gotten ass stomped if we happened to play BAMA but if we played ND we would have had a decent, I would say 45% chance of beating ND.

    Um, no. I think your statistical calculations need some work.

    I am not 100% sure of that. Your schedule was weak enough, with some bad wins, that Bama may have still jumped you. I can't prove that though. There are others who ran the numbers who believe this to be the case.

    I may be wrong but 30% over 4 years = 7.5 % chance of winning a NC a year

    13 years times 7.5 % = 97.5 percent

    2% over 4 years = 0.5 % per year which means to get to 50% that would take 100 years and 100 % 200 years.

    Again I may be using my bad Ohio education to get these number so please double check.

    No I agree with you, It defiantly wasn't a given. The reason I brought it up was to show that 30% over 4 years wasn't that crazzy.

    Don't want to go into a statistic course, but that isn't how it works.

    I think outside of Bama, no team has a 30% chance of winning a championship over the next four years. That is simply because of the competition from so many directions. Furthermore, several SEC teams are probably ahead of OSU on that list...at least LSU is.

    Again, I think OSU has by far the best chance in the Big 10....but if I had to bet today, I would bet zero championships over the next four years...because probability is heavily skewed to that direction.

    The numbers do add up but I understand its hard to apply them directly when you are talking about CFB. I would bet 0 championships over the next 4 years as well but that doesn't mean we have a 0 % chance.
