For those concerned about McCord

[ihuskcorn]

After reading comments by Buckeye fans questioning McCords abilities, I went on an OSU site and watched a 42 minute video produced by Buckeyes Now called Buckeye Breakdown. It featured an OSU reporter/ insider named Brendan Gulick having an interview with Anthony Moeglin. It’s a youtube video giving their reactions 24 hours after McCord announced his decision to enter the portal. In their words, it was a somber day to be an OSU fan. They were still shook about him leaving Buckeye nation. They said that while McCord wasn’t in the vein of Heisman level QB’s they’ve had in the past he was still a VERY GOOD QB. Contrary to the Buckeye fans on here yesterday throwing dispersions on him, these two OSU insiders said the Buckeye program is worse off without him. Team members loved him and respected him.

If Nebraska gets McCord (which they seemed to think was a good possibility) I think we should consider ourselves fortunate.

The buckeyes posting on this board basically are "sour grapes" fans from OSU.

All I know is we can't afford to miss on a QB this year AND someone to continue to develop him.

Hope the team is still practicing right now. Need to put in more work than ever.

My worry is that we actually don’t get him. Hope we do.
And a LB. Maybe an OT.

This... I don't see how anyone can be concerned about McCord after watching our quarterback play this past season. Add McCord , wide receiver, running back and a linebacker.

Sounds like Miami is trying to be a player for him.

Visit for Miami?

Gosh, it’d be awfully nice if we could, you know, go ahead and close the deal with one of these players we’re hearing so much about. Instead of scheduling meetings for Monday, having dollar amounts for what we’ve offered leak out, and then having other schools swoop in with offers that top ours.

I agree

it's nice to see the staff being outwardly aggressive, but I hope it isn't all for naught (and the 'gram)

I appreciate Rhule calling out the price for these kids publicly. he's gotten a lot of press from it in places that matter to players (McAfee Show, for instance).

hopefully the AD and boosters got the message.
