Old traditions are being wiped out Terry. It does make some sense if you examine the process. NIL is King now.
Yep, they're throwing alot of different things up on the wall to see what sticks. I understand and support the intent, to minimize distractions around the game as historically that week has had a ton heaped on it - senior tackle, band appreciation, etc - all taking some degree of focus off practice and pre-game prep. That said, some of them hopefully won't stick, they did get rid of that silly song by a band nobody ever hear of before the game thankfully and I like the pre-game victory bell honorees. Kudos to Day/Bjork for always seeking ways to improve tho
I tend to agree BuckeyeT, with most of what you said, time will tell, but I anticipate a lot of fans not agreeing with moving seniors day up at the beginning of the season. Old way of doing things is not so easily accepted.
Buckeyes are picked number 1 in AP poll. No great surprise but strange things occur in early games. I do not think we will lose to Ball State, but Texas may be another animal.
Schedule is brutal so I expect them to stumble once or twice along the way. That said, if they manage to find their way into the playoffs, I think those tests and that experience much improves their chances for a deep run. I like this team alot, they could well be 10-2 in late November and the pitchfork crowd is out of control again yet be much better prepared to play for a championship than last year
