Tuesday's Buckeye Bits
Good morning fellow Buckeye's and welcome to your Tuesday Buckeye Bits.
Super Bowl!!- This past weekend was a sad one as it marked the final football being played until the spring game in April. The Super Bowl lived up to the hype as the game in Indianapolis turned into a thriller at the end. Watching Tom Brady and company lose was pretty satisfying to me. As a Browns fan...

NFL Draft Scouting Report: Brandon Weeden, QB, Oklahoma State
"The biggest concern that will build momentum leading into the 2012 NFL Draft for Brandon Weeden, undoubtedly will be his age. As a 28 year old, a perceived inability to develop, and limited upside bring reason to doubt Weeden's long term success. Some have even gone as far to say he can only be a one-contract player. With a relatively poor track record of minor league...

It’s a small world when you love baseball
I’m in Fort Wayne, Indiana visiting a client for my real job. While walking through the office today, I looked into one of the open offices and saw the jersey above. I knew right away I was onto something.
One of the employees of the company was former Red Brian Reith’s father. Instantly, I began chatting him up.
We talked about his disdain as a parent for Bob Boone....

ESPN is on a bit of a Michigan kick lately. Last month it was the "Fab 5" 30-for-30 special that aired before the start of the NCAA tournament. This month, it's "The Brady 6" that will air tonight at 8PM eastern.

The Process
Close enough. Funny, there are only a few decent Hoke pics to choose from but that’s about to change.
Sure, I wanted a bigger name coach and I wanted Harbaugh to be here (and Harbaugh was certainly offered). I’m anxious about how this is going to go but I’m excited to watch it play out.
Dave Brandon had a process to get us here. While my support is unwavering, I, too...

As many may recall, Quincy Carter was cut during the pre-season which vaulted Vinnie Testeverde into the starting lineup. Tony Romo was in his rookie season behind Drew Henson. Roy Williams (safety) was breaking legs with his patented horse collar...

Who Were The Worst Cowboys Ever?
Tuesday, my friend and colleague Jeff Pearlman posted his definitive list of the 100 worst players in the history of the NFL over at Deadspin. Now, while your Dallas Cowboys have done you proud and won five Super Bowls, you and I both know the Cowboys have had many a player pass by who deserved mention on this list. Horrible players. Awful players. I went through Pearlman’s...

You Don't Need to Be Drafted to Make the Cowboys
The Cowboys aren't averse to pursuing nontraditional ways of finding players who can help the team. They used a reality show to find Jesse Holley, they turned to baseball for Drew Henson and Chad Hutchinson and they dragged Nate Newton out of the world of competitive pie eating.We're kidding about the last one but history has shown that you don't need to be a blue-chipper...

No News is Good News: Training Camp Edition
Thank God football returns. Dallas @ Minnesota left a bad taste in the mouth of Cowboys fans across the world. It has been a productive 6 months for the Cowboys. They drafted a WR and LB of the future and they cut “dead weight” in Flozell Adams and Ken Hamlin. Otherwise it was a rather quiet off-season.

Tom Brady Too Hollywood For Patriot Fans?
Tom Brady's rags-to-riches story has been inspiring to many in the New England area, he was Drew Henson's backup at Michigan, he was drafted in the sixth-round of the 2000 NFL draft and served as Drew Bledsoe's backup and when Bledsoe was injured in week 2 of the 2001 season, Brady took over and hasn't looked back delivering 3 Super Bowls in four years for the Patriots.

Flozell Adams Holding Cowboys Back
Written by theMBIIIeffect
Having a good left tackle is a necessity in the NFL. Ever since the Cowboys drafted Flozell Adams in the second round of the 1998 draft, Cowboys quarterbacks from Troy Aikman to Drew Henson and Quincy Carter have been fairly safe from their blind side.
But the first few weeks of the 2009 season [...]

Wolverine Wednesday: Notes from Practice This Week
• Denard accounted for four touchdowns on Monday: two running and two throwing. One of his tosses was a 78-yarder to tight end Brandon Moore. On Tuesday he ran for 68 yards on a broken play.
