I will wait cautiously optimistically to end this awesome ride and see a Year 3 before I go kissing butt.

I will wait cautiously optimistically to end this awesome ride and see a Year 3 before I go kissing butt. Hopefully this team will win the East, and the MACC too, but the odds are that next year will be an off year. Almost the entire defense will be gone, and that will be difficult to replace, so keep that in mind. “We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak.” ― Epictetus Back to Top Bobcat Love's Sense of Shame General User Member Since: 7/30/2010 Post Count: 3,427 Status: Online     RE: Official Tim Albin Apology Thread    Posted: 11/9/2022 5:00:28 AM  Much of ire was directed at the AD, who deserves a few apologies, too.

Taking last year's 3-9 season then starting off this season the way we did (not great) and now rattling off 5 straight MAC wins? That's coaching. That's believing in your team and making improvements each week. He's made good staffing hires. Talent acquisition in terms of transfers - this is perhaps the best WR unit I have seen at OHIO (been following since 2010) and that's due to transfers. In game coaching and clock management have improved immensely. Last night against Fiami we took the air out of the ball and handled the clock well. Keep it up, Tim! What a day at the Convo.....Wow!

It is truly amazing the transformation of the team this season for which I am thankful.

I am every bit as thankful that Coach Albin is leading our program now.

I'm impressed with the turnaround and happy for Albin, who genuinely seems like a good guy. I dropped my pitchfork last month and I'm happy to admit I was wrong, but anointing him after five really solid games in a row seems a tad premature.

Sign the guy. He deserves it. What a difference one year makes. Still plenty of ground to cover this season but beating down Buffalo and Fiami is impressive.

It's evident that there has been incredible development in player skills as well as play-calling. Now, the next big improvement needs to be in recruiting.

I have to say the corp we had in 2012, espically if you look at TE to throw to as well, was better. Maybe this team is on par with just WR. In 2012 it didn't stay healthy. But do we have 5 or 6 guys who are going to get NFL chances and 3 or 4 that make rosters on this team? I don't know. Maybe we do.

I was thinking more about this season than beyond. Kurtis got his bell rung at WMU and wasn't himself for the rest of that game and the next against NIU. The team won, but the opponents had their own QB issues. He came up limping a couple times last night but shook it off. Still, the concern is there because the backups have little experience. As for the portal, Kurtis seems to be extremely loyal to Albin and seems to like being at Ohio. If Albin stays, I'm not sure Kurtis would enter the portal unless there was an extremely good chance he would land in a top-10 program. Maybe not even then. No insider info, just a gut feeling. You're right about recruiting. Solich always seemed to have two serviceable QBs, but we really only have one now. We will get by. We will get by. We will get by. We will survive.
