People have been screaming for years for Tress to finally give up his OC duties. I love Tress but I am in 100% agreement. He went from a guy who can't lose the big game, to a guy that can't win the big game. I have season tickets and I know what they are going to call, and what is going to happen on 66% of the plays. What do you think coaches and players on the opposing team know? It's a pathetic joke.

I saw a few posts from "insiders" stating that Tress will be forced to hire a OC in the off-season or he won't be back. Not sure if there is any truth to it or not.

Didn't read it all...no need to be sick again.

But obviously there needs to be changes.

I think it might be a good thing that they have had so many big losses like this that now you have to question Tressel and his offensive play calling. Tressel has never been questiones(or at least I didn't) until the big losses started piling up. To me he could do no wrong and was a big game coach through the Michigan game in 06. I still want to see what he can do for the rest of this season. I think you will see the offense open more with Pryor at QB. It has to in order to utilize Pryor and some of the other players on offense. The Buckeyes have a lot of talent and speed and it can't be wasted.

Tressel needs to open it up with Pryor...I'm sick of babying his ***.

Also...Pryor needs to get off this crap about I'm going to show everyone I'm a QB...not a runner who throws the ball.

Run if you have to...throw it if you have to...but just win the damn game.

Also...Pryor needs to make some better desicions...that air mailed INT against Toledo is one thing...that crap gets you beat against good teams.

Pryor doesn't seem to be too interested in contact.

Prior is elite level talent, its a shame that Tressel treats him more like Krenzel than Smith.

It's PRYOR. Forcier looks good but let's not start crowning him just yet. A legend?:lmao2: Don't doubt Rich Rodriguez.... except when he has the chance to play for a national championship and all he has to do is beat under .500 Pittsburgh at home...wait.. what?

Please....can we say hyperbole?

I find it hilarious when a fan has no real reason to talk smack but they do.
