Hot Take On The State of Buckeye Football
Posted: Sun Oct 28, 2018 7:43 pm
This is a shameless reposting of a hot take posted on Eleven Warriors under the screen name IBLEEDSCARLETANDGRAY.
The poster's statement is harsh but well may be accurate about the state of Buckeye football in 2018:
"John Cooper's last team in 2000 lost to Minnesota. That team was talented and had plenty of guys who went on to win a national title in 2002. But that 2000 team got their asses kicked in an eerily similar fashion to the 2018 Purdue game. They were soft and unmotivated and passive. They all knew Cooper was a dead man walking as coach. It is entirely possible Urban has lost the locker room in the same way. Maybe the players all know he's done after this season and are phoning it in, especially the draft-eligible guys looking to preserve their draft status by not getting hurt. They all know in their hearts they are destined for 3-4-5 losses. Why expend the energy and hurt their draft stock? We can thank Nick Bosa for that."
