URBAN MEYER WARNS NEW TEAMS
Former Ohio State football coach Urban Meyer warns new Big Ten teams they better be ready for the rigors of a college football schedule full of physical teams every single week. That is life in the Big Ten and it might be different from what they are used to in the defunct PAC-12. We agree with Meyer and his assessment but we make a pretty good case that several of the new west coast teams are built for Big Ten play. In fact, a couple teams may surprise some people this college football season with their ability to play a physical style of football!
BAD NEWS FOR RUTGERS
Post this one to bad timing and tough luck. Rutgers 64-year-old athletic director Pat Hobbs is stepping down after 9 years on the job. He hinted at health issues in his resignation letters. The Rutgers football program is coming off a 7 win season and its men’s basketball team has made the NCAA Tournament a couple of times on his watch. He was good at hiring good coaches who bought into the Rutgers culture. He was the longest tenured athletic director in the Big Ten. Stepping down just days before the start of the college football season is not ideal for anyone.
NOW WHAT AT OHIO STATE?
Now that Ryan Day has named Will Howard as the Ohio State starting quarterback, what about the future of Devin Brown who has been edged out by two different quarterbacks two seasons in a row? Plus 5-star freshman Julian Sayin is nipping at his heals. It is a fair question. We may have an answer.
13 of the Big Ten’s 18 starting quarterbacks are on the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award watch list. Tune in to find out who is on the list and who is not!
INJURIES AND RECRUITING
Plus we have the latest injury news out of the Nebraska football and Illinois football camps and recruiting news all around.
And finally, we post out Top Ten Big Ten observations from the weekend. You will not want to miss this list! It is all here on Locked on Big 10 with Craig Shemon!
