I understand today was the first day of Mat Drills.

The team was broken into six teams. They will compete against each other a couple days a week (Tues/Thurs) doing high intensity drills until spring ball starts.

I think the captains are;

Shrader
Allen
Gadsden
Barron
Johnson
Okechukwu


Hopefully we can see pictures and the social media sites a couple of time a week.

Watch one of Ohio State football's famed "mat drills"

[jwplayer OB6xCIeh-TPCohRft] We keep hearing players, coaches, and bystanders rave about Ohio State’s early morning mat drills. No, it has nothing to do with wrestling, and strength coach Mic…

The annual reminders of how out of shape I am, and how I let it get even worse over the winter.

The most wonderful time of the year...

Hopefully Cruz can make a big jump this season as a full time starter. This coming season as a RS Sophomore first year starter he's not going to be equal to what we had in Bergeron this past year as a 3 1/2 year starter. But hopefully he can be solid. He has gained a lot of good weight since his Senior year of HS and I think he could add another 10-20 lbs of muscle in the next couple of years. I think the future looks really solid for him. He has the tools, just needs some experience.

And we really need him to develop quickly.

Also a good reason the staff had Bergeron opt-out. Cruz started at LT in the bowl game

Crucible Steel still around? I see a great NIL/Advertising opportunity with those T-Shirts in the 4th pic.

I cleaned drainage pits in the rolling steel mills when I was in college.
Great union, great pay. Medieval conditions.
