This from 11 Warriors
Ohio State has finally landed a transfer offensive lineman.

Victor Cutler, who made 21 starts on Louisiana-Monroe’s offensive line over the past three seasons, announced his commitment to Ohio State on Wednesday.Cutler was the Warhawks’ starting left tackle in 2022 and also has experience starting at center and right tackle. While Ohio State has a hole to fill at left tackle, Cutler likely projects to playing on the interior offensive line for the Buckeyes at 6-foot-3 and 302 pounds.

With a Pro Football Focus grade of just 42.8 for the 2022 season, Cutler won’t come to Ohio State as a sure bet to earn a starting spot. That said, he earned one of his highest grades of the year last season against Alabama, allowing zero pressures in pass protection. And he gives the Buckeyes another veteran offensive lineman with significant starting experience, which Ohio State lacked outside of returning starters Donovan Jackson and Matt Jones. His experience playing both tackle positions and center could allow him to provide depth at all five offensive line spots.

So healthy and at least serviceable maybe more - good pick up

RE: Mertz

2020 QB Coach - Jon Budmayr
2021 QB Coach - Paul Chryst
2022 QB Coach - Bobby Engram (WTF???)

2020 OC - Joe Rudolph
2021 OC - Paul Chryst
2022 OC - Bobby Engram*
I mean, that’s all structurally one offense overseen by one person. And while it’s not ideal, people have dragged their way to passing competence in worse spots.

Dean couldn't get on the field much last season as a WR, but I thought he should have stayed at corner and not tried WR. Not sure if was his idea or his dad's idea, but it was a bad one.

If he moved back to D, I'd love for him to stay. 

But now that UW just brought in two highly rated 2023 WR kids and four highly rated transfer WR kids, there is no way he sees the field at WR for UW.

CB, for sure he'd play.

He's growing on me quickly.

He was my wish-list coach after the O debacle.  Not that I thought he had any interest, ergo, wish-list.  I'll be very interested to see how he does in Madison.  Out of the guys who were realistic, I wanted to give Napier a shot.

Well it's the new version of "who's the dipshit booster who got us put on probation" and it's turned into "who's the dipshit booster who quoted this kid a (legal) number and didn't produce"

At least y'all are trying.  We are laughably behind the times in the new NIL world.  Literally one lawyer somewhere has inked every single deal in all sports, that I know of.  I mean....he can't have that much $.  And while I don't know the value of any of the deals, I'm lead to believe it's not much.  

General vibe is the local businessmen need to step up BIG.  Not sure how current pitches come off when we're only offering the same thing we could offer 10 years ago, but in a world where some Alabama car dealership will give them a mil.

Georgia TE Arik Gilbert announced his commitment to Nebraska Thursday afternoon.

The 6-foot-5, 250 pounder previously played for LSU, before transferring to the in-state Georgia Bulldogs.

He was ranked as the No. 5 player in the 2020 class. Gilbert also tabbed in as the No.1 tight end and the top player in the state of Georgia.

just cause he's not the number 1 option in Gawja, doesn't mean he can't be the #1 option in Lincoln

I hope Gilbert works out.  He was the highest rated tight end in history comiing out of hs. He left LSU and we had high hopes of a 3 headed tight end monster but he kept having undisclosed personal problems and we couldn't get him on the field.  If he gets it together he is a 1st round draft pick, big, fast and great hands

It was never fully known to the public what his deal was at LSU.  Certainly wasn't a lack of natural talent. 

All we ever heard was it was not disciplinary problems, not bad chemistry with teammates, no personal problems or run-ins with the coaches.  All very mercurial. 

Most of us were left feeling like he just wanted to be closer to home.  Now with the Nebraska xfer, who knows. 

Physical freak, tho.

fingers crossed

Fidone was the country’s top tight end recruit and a top 40 recruit in the 21 class, the highest-rated recruit to sign with NU since 2008

Hasn't don't much besides get injured and ride the bench

just need to get them both going now.
