When he committed to tOSU over Missouri, his Mother used to troll Tigerboard, looking for comments about her son.

Then she would tweet them and try to make the person look like a fool. Problem was, she was loooking like the bigger fool, for actually taking time to search for comments about her son.

It was lame, she would take shots at MU, all the while, claiming they loved their alma mater and the such.(she and her husband graduated from MU)

I didn't blame him for going to tOSU, MIssouri isn't the place to go, if your a rb. They like to throw and position is shared, u wont get all the touches.

Same reason Montee Ball, ronnie wingo, etc didnt go to Missouri. They wanted to be the man at RB, not be in a pass happy offense(which really isn't 100% true).

Sounds about right considering how her son acted on Saturday night.

Or he's pissed that his team lost and he wasn't put in a position to do more to help them.

I don't think running backs have accepted how little value and effect on an outcome of a game they have by nature of their position. Hardly surprising.

It seems weird to me that you said that.

Do you have a specific point you want to make?

I think the point is that you're taking offense to patently obvious facts. It's weird.

Mizzou ain't the place to go if you're anything, not just a RB.

You think wrong. I haven't taken offense (nice addition of another right-wing hack buzzword) to anything.

If you want to talk about facts (without the hackish weirdness), go ahead and explain what you're talking about, but I really think this is done. Plus, I've seen your right-wing shtick before. Dull and predictable.

Nice emoticon.

Do you have a substantive disagreement? Can you put it into words?

I'm sure you saw that Meyer said that he agreed that Elliott should have got more carries.

only threw the ball 16 times.

We were running QB draw. Actually both teams were. It was a torrential monsoon with horizontal rain in the first half. Ohio State tried to play a conservative game, and they were abysmal at it. This isn't on Zeke. The guy only had 2 carries in the second half. That's inexcusable.


Michigan State had the ball for 39 minutes. That was another issue for OSU.

Yep. Michigan State's defense dominated them in every facet. OSU couldn't do anything.

124 total yards and 45 plays.

Things didn't go their way for once, and Zeke got upset about it.

If that had have been an Alabama player, I would feel the same way.

Sure, the loss itself is troubling, but the LOSS and the inexcusably poor game plan and play calling makes it worse.

At over 7.6 YPC, Zeke averages nearly 3 yards more per carry in the second half than the first. Since they were committed to running the ball, it's inexcusable to only give Zeke 2 carries.

So again, the time and place may have been suspect, BUT the evidence clearly supports Zeke.

Not sure that's the point. The point is that he's an immature, self-centered player that wasn't man enough to resolve this with the coaching staff behind closed doors. And, with Urban's track record of enabling star players - ultimately letting the inmates run the asylum - this has to be concerning to even the most biased scarlet colored eyeglass wearing Buckeye fan.

You make some string generalization based on a person speaking honestly and truthfully, while also ignoring all of the past behavior counter to your assessment.

Why? He spoke honestly and truthfully. It may have been the wrong venue, but given the honesty of his statements, it's not that concerning.
