    Should have kept it in house, but he's right.

    I hate the argument he only had 33 yards on his 12 carries. He also had a TD.

    How many times has he busted big runs his entire career? They have the athletes up front to spring him loose. Stick to it and give him a chance.

    It's better than taking to the air in shitty weather.

    2 time national coach of the year Chris Petersen disagrees.

    You don't bitch about it through the media. I know pros can get it away with it, but college kids need to STFU and respectfully address the coaches about it privately.

    Some of you probably haven't coached.

    Joey Galloway got this right: You can live with frustrated comments about not-enough-touches following a loss. But the moment EE veered into "no chance I'm coming back next year," he just won himself a seat on the bench.

    Or played any sort of actually competitive team athletics

    Yeah...

    I get his frustration, and he's probably right, but he clearly entered insubordination territory. Rural Meyer should bench his ass, at least for a few series to send a message, but he probably won't.

    He's right. He's arguably the best RB in the country and he got 12 carries. It's a mindset thing. Michigan State beat the shit out of them because they got cute. Maybe Elliot should keep his frustration in house, but he's right. Urban Meyer knows it. I'm not surprised Cuntwaffle thinks he's a cry baby bitch.

    Elliot is kind of an idiot because he will have to answer a lot of questions about these comments before the draft, but what he is saying has merit. Even the best coaches fuck up. I bet you Elliot gets a lot more than 12 carries next week against Michigan.

    He also only had 33 yards. He didn't bust off 130 off those 12 carries.

    They lost 1 game after winning what seemed like 200 in a row. Boo fucking hoo. Meyer has done incredible things for OSU so far. If this was their 4 straight loss and he had been averaging 80 yards off 9 carries a game then I could understand the public whine fest.
    The rest of the offense did terrible too. It was the biggest game of their season. He carried them to a title last year and was a likely Heisman finalist. He deserves more than 12 carries. He's right.

    I bet you him and Meyer cuss each other out followed by Elliot getting a lot of carries against Michigan. I could be wrong, but Ohio State cares about winning.

    The point isnt whether hes right or not, its completely inconsequential. He probably is. As an amateur player you do not publicly call out the coaches. The pros can get away with it, college kids absolutely not. Period.

    For those who dont understand the problems with that going on definitely havent coached at a remotely elevated level.

    He's a good RB and a cry baby. Man up and realize that your coaches may have made a mistake, but you're in a team game.

    That kind of behavior won't play well in other organizations that Turner might be a part of down the road.
