This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

He’s a wildcard - but 65th now and was 5 star and top 40 by BTD
Before he changed his throwing motion and spooked people. He is between 6’1” and 6’2” - so he lacks elite size. But - at this same point in time Joe B was considered a permanent bench warmer at OSU with zero hope of ever playing. He was 280th ranked with zero p5 offers other than OSU and was clearly recruited to be a low ranked guy that would stick around and maybe be used due to injuries.
His size, arm strength and then coaching changed what happened with him - but let’s not act like coming in he was viewed as anything worth a shit. By comparison, Pyne was much more highly recruited and was 55 spots higher ranked and then this new kid is off the charts more highly regarded coming in.
