What about Mariota's penchant for getting banged up? He's not well-built so what happens when someone like Suh or Vince Wilfork falls on him?
At least the Dook Hype Machine was thrown back from the ramparts, kind of like the Muzzies at Vienna.

His best attribute is finding open receivers on the run. If he can find a way to remain mobile without getting banged up everytime an NFL lineman drives his shoulder into the ground (lol) he could be a decent QB. All stars point to him flaming out though - He'll be drafted in the top 2 which means he will be going to a shit organization with no offensive line to give him time in the pocket.

I fucking hate those stupid share buttons -
He could easily fail... But he will still go high 1st round in the NFL draft. For some reason teams still gamble high draft picks on QB's... LRR

Too bad it wasnt a lemon party link

He seems like a great kid, humble and competitive. I'm glad he won the Heisman, but the truth is he's a system quarterback playing in a league that doesn't play competitive defense. He'll get destroyed in the NFL.SteveInShelton said:His best attribute is finding open receivers on the run.

I'm 81% sure that Matt Leinart stayed for his 5th year because he was able to conveniently mask the fact that he needed some sort of surgery (knee I think) which would have been discovered at combine physicals and affected his draft status with a bunch of "rah, rah, staying in skool is awesome!" crap. Just ask Matt Barkley or Jake Lockner about the financial wisdom of waiting an extra year to enter the draft when perfectly healthy.bananasnblondes said:Peoplein the sports world are starting to ponder if Mariota take the Matt Leinart route. (reasons, reasons, reasons) We shall see.
It turns out that the "hang out a year and fuck coeds" part of Matt's plan ended up working out a little too well, just ask Blake Griffin

Yeah it was easy to hate Mastoli and D. Thomas but Mariota is a good kid.
I'm sure Kawasaki, Chode, and Jimmy Lake were watching tOSU for keys on how to pummel the Dook System in the future. Gotta get more and better horses though, 2 to 3 deep at each level of the D.
It's too bad the strength of our D will probably be the secondary first and then the LB corp since the DL is being entirely rebuilt. I like Qualls at NT and Mathis at DE but the DT position could be a problem (Dissly or Tupou) and the depth is unknown.Southerndawg said:
