Some actual Husky talk - Next year's OL

Doesn't sound like it based on the glowing assessment of the current dreck you gave us.Dennis_DeYoung said:All my chips are in behind Trey Adams. I fucking love him. My favorite OL recruit from our state since Garnett. DeCastro was similar. The kid is a motherfucking beast. I just hope we can RS him next year.

I don't agree with Roberts. I haven't watched his film and don't know much about him as a player, but he still looks like a kid. @HeretoBeatmyChest has a theory on recruits who look young. I love Robert's offer sheet though and there are outliers to the look test.CokeGreaterThanPepsi said:I think the OL recruiting is one of the things that has me most excited for the future...
Road mentioned McGary (who looks like how you would create an OT in a lab), Sosobee, Adams and Burleson. But then you throw in guys like Henry Roberts and Jared Hilbers, those are some guys that will pass the eye test for you on the lines. It's all about development for the OL, but the starting point for the coaches seems really good. And I know they also apparently really like John Turner. The only guy on the line that they have brought in that I don't get is Matt James, mostly because I don't think he has been able to put on any weight.
The thing about Burleson that does concern me is that he has a Kevin King neck. NOT GOOD!!!11
Regarding James, he was a Sark recruit. Petersen has integrity and signed some guys I doubt he normally would (Lavon Washington). Did James even get a Boise offer? James is a project because he is slight. -

This is a more recent pic of him, I believe with Chris Lee from the set of Dracula Has Risen From the Grave.

If by "passes the eye test" you mean looks like he's 32 years old, then yes, Sosebee passes the eye test. -

Somebody needs to convince him to put the Bozworth vents in his hair.doogsinparadise said:

Washington is back! -
He is an OL now, I have that confirmed by my sources (seriously)!doogsinparadise said:
Still listed as a DL on the official website, fwiw. -
Ditto. Jood reported it about a month ago.CokeGreaterThanPepsi said:

NFL players look like kids to me because I'm old and shit but I understand that theory. I like players who would make me cross the street if I saw them coming, not some soft piece of shit that I want to beat up and probably could. If Petersen can recruit then get them in the weight room and on the field. The O line was young and considered a weakness for Ohio State at the start of the year.
I doubt we have those kind of recruits but still, get Sark's human refuse out of here and get some dirt eating road hogs in play. I don't have any idea of who Petersen recruited last year or this year but Road and Dennis can fill me in -
The radio broadcast guys said that Ohio State had "dirtbags" that "played the game the right way." Whatever that means.RaceBannon said:NFL players look like kids to me because I'm old and shit but I understand that theory.

Last year:
Devin "Kaminoan" Burleson, T — tall, skinny Kaminoan from the planet Kamino. Played Basketball, we said 'F it, we see you as a T'.
Frankenstein's Monster, T — tall, not skinny, tough, probably completely retarded, brute who is stupid enough to think he was going to play DL in college and let Pete sell him on Washington even though he wanted to go somewhere in the country.
Matt James, T — skinny.
John Turner, G — some guy.
Boomer "Keyser" Sosebee, G — 80's Movie Bad Guy, thick. 'Booming' power, if you will.
This year:
Trey Adams, T — naturally powerful, intense, quasi-dirty beast-man from Wetsnatchee (ILTCIT, IWILTD).
Henry Roberts, G/T — quick footed, 6-5, 290 guy from Bellevue who would've gone to Stanford if Sark were here.
Jared "Kaminoan #2" Hilbers, G/T — basically a Kaminoan from the planet Kamino who fits the body type they're looking for of guys who actually look like offensive linemen. Tall, skinny and has extraordinarily long arms.
Again, for reference... a Kaminoan with Christopher Lee: -
Some good stuff on Ohio States O line
What was written after Virginia Tech
No. 8 Ohio State’s offensive line looked like a public safety hazard against Virginia Tech, allowing seven sacks and 11 total tackles for loss in a 35-21 defeat at home — OSU’s first loss to an unranked nonconference opponent in Columbus since 1982.
The after the Oregon game report
grantland.com/the-triangle/college-football-playoff-national-championship-ohio-state-beats-oregon-urban-meyer-ezekiel-elliott-offensive-line/
As the victors basked in a shower of celebratory confetti on Monday night, I couldn’t help but think back to the first Saturday of September, when the same linemen were laid low at home in a 35-21 debacle against Virginia Tech, an unranked team that would go on to finish in a tie for last place in the ACC Coastal. The loss seemed to confirm all of the worst fears about Ohio State that had surfaced in the preseason. At that point, OSU was just another young team that looked young: erratic at quarterback, unsettled at the skill positions, and so overmatched up front that I described the rebuilt line at the time as a public safety hazard. -
Thank you Dennis

I fucking *heart* you.Dennis_DeYoung said:Here's my assessment of what's coming back:
"Frankenstein's Monster" McGary, T — This kid looks like an after picture from a 40 year boxing career with a cowboy hat photoshopped on to him. He'll probably be good.
Dexter "Almost Reggie Cleveland All-Star" Charles, G/T — Overhyped and horrible, Charles has always been bad and the idea of having his uncle "Fudd" play "Welcome to the Jungle" as our entrance song is an equally awful idea as him being the 'leader' of our group next year. Soft, shitty. I wish I could sell his fucking couch for him. SELL YOUR COUCH, DEX!!!
Siosifafifa Tufunguna, G/C — He's round and bad. Has no talent. Never will be any good. Basically the shitty Colin Tanigawa. Allow yourself a second to let that seep in. The shitty Colin Tanigawa.
Dane Crane, C — I will admit that I liked his HS film and thought he would be good. Maybe he will be. I mean, beating out the center-by-committee grouping of Panda Tanigawa and former All Pac-12 HM powerhouse Mike Christ is obviously a tough task. I do like that his name rhymes.
Boomer Boomer, G — My policy is that, until proven otherwise, all Petersen recruits are basically Sidney Jones MMXIV and all Sark recruits are basically Erik Kohler. Jones would make a better lineman than Kohler ever did.
Jake "Mein" Eldrenkampf, T — I liked him coming out of HS, I guess. From his performance so far it looks like he should've stayed there.
Shelton Coleman, T — He was god fucking awful. 'Pencil-armed', 'directionless' and 'worthless' are the first three adjectives that come to mind when I think of his play this year. Maybe he'll get better, but I doubt it.
It wouldn't surprise me to see Kirkland and Fuavai do a little couch market research this off-season. The rest of everyone is either a freshman or sucks so much shit I forgot them.
