He called a great game and you can tell the players love the guy...but they barely beat an awful suckass 6-6 Sparty team with a ton of their players suspended.... Oh yeah and it was a home game too. Not that impressive IMO

LOL at you guys thinking you could crush Iowa. LSU's offense is God awful. LSU has played some of the worst defenses in college football this year...# 105, # 98, #97, #70, #68, #56, #55, and #2....what have you accomplished? the #100 ranked offense! You couldn't get the ball over the 50 yard line vs. Iowa. :lol: :lol:

College Football Hall of Fame
Charles Wesley "Chic" Harley (September 15, 1894 - April 21, 1974) was one of the outstanding American football players of the first half of the 20th century and the player who first brought the Ohio State University football program to national attention. Harley was Ohio State's first consensus first-team All-America selection and first three-time All-America selection. In 1951 he became a charter inductee in the College Football Hall of Fame.

Chic Harley attended East High School in Columbus, Ohio. In Harley's career at East High School, he lost only one game - his last game. So many people wanted to see Harley play, many times games at (the now) East High "Harley Field" outdrew Ohio State games.

In 1941, James Thurber described Chic Harley's running skills for the defunct New York newspaper PM, "If you never saw him run with a football, we can't describe it to you. It wasn't like Red Grange or Tom Harmon or anybody else. It was kind of a cross between music and cannon fire, and it brought your heart up under your ears."[1]

[edit] College career
Harley began his career with the Ohio State Buckeyes in 1916. He led the team to a 7-0 record and their first Big Ten Conference championship. The team scored 258 points in seven games, giving up only 29. The key games of the season were a 7-6 victory over the University of Illinois and a 14-13 victory over the University of Wisconsin-Madison, teams that were at the time the conference's dominant powers. In both games the margin of victory was a point after touchdown kicked by Harley. Following the season, Harley was named as a consensus first-team All-America selection, including a spot on Walter Camp's authoritative list.

In 1918 Harley left school to be a pilot in the United States Army Air Service during World War I, but he returned the following year. In 1919 the Buckeyes finished 6-1. Harley's only career loss was a heartbreaker; the team lost the game and the conference title to the University of Illinois on the last play of the last game of the season. That season, however, is remembered at Ohio State for the Buckeyes' first victory over the University of Michigan. Following that senior season, Harley was again a consensus first-team All-America selection.

Throughout his Ohio State career, Harley played right halfback on offense and safety on defense, and was also the team's punter and place kicker. He scored 201 points in a 23-game career. This total was the school's individual scoring record until Harley was surpassed by Howard "Hopalong" Cassady in 1955. Harley's 8.74 points per game remains a school record. Harley also holds the team record for interceptions in a game: he picked off four passes in the 1919 game against the University of Michigan.

In 1950 Harley was voted a first-team halfback on the Associated Press college football All-Star team for the first half of the 20th century. The other first-team halfback was Jim Thorpe. Red Grange was voted to the second team. When asked to explain his vote, one writer said, "Red Grange was a great runner, but that's all he was. Chic Harley was a great runner, a great passer, a great kicker and a great defensive back. That's why he's on my first-team."[2] In 1951 Harley was one of 44 players and coaches selected as the charter members of the College Football Hall of Fame.

In Harley's era the Buckeyes had played in Ohio Field, which had a seating capacity of only a few thousand. Harley so excited the fans of Ohio State football that he inspired a $1.3 million funding drive, starting in 1920, to build the massive Ohio Stadium. For this reason Ohio Stadium, where the Buckeyes still play, is sometimes called "The House That Harley Built".[3]

He's good for CFB because he loves it but you're right. He's been ripping tOSU for a year and he said something like " Ohio State is a great program and when they lose it's only to great teams, I'm sick of everyone banging on them--with me leading the way............." :cheers:

couple a darn good players not mentioned...

*Major Wright--hard hitting NFL prospect
*John Clay--prob best back in big 10 next year
*Donovan Warren.--great NFL prospect starter at Mich since fresh.

Kirk Terdstreit is right next to him. He was unbearable today sucking on USC balls. USC deserved much praise today but it really became nausiating...sometimes it's okay to STFU....STFU

Kentucky, South Carolina, Georgia, and Alabama should win their bowl games handily

Handily?? doubtful in my mind. I think Kentucky and South Carolina lose in games not that close...also I think Georgia wins but the game will go into the 4th qtr. :cheers:

He may have heart but his body is not suited for DI football. He had 3 concussions this year...I'm guessing his football career is nearing its end or he'll be eating out a straw the rest of his life.
