Don’t be discouraged

It sucks that we lost that game Hoover missed many open throws, marsh could’ve toe tapped victory. But Cig is obviously the coaching beast and it sucks our streak is over but we did all this without ever having a five star high school recruit which Ohio State has overflowing (people are quick to forget where they came from)

Marsh could have been an Indiana legend on that play but he flat footed it. Youre allowed to be upset. That was a slam dunk play. Ball was right where it needed to be. He forgot about his feet.

That was a game winner and even though we sucked on offense all game still had a chance to win. Those 2 inches keep OSU in the top 5 and kick us out to a 9 or 10.

How do you say its right were it needed to be when he had so much open space to the right. Sure receivers have adjusted before, but its completely on Hoover’s inaccuracy, see all other incompletion from today.

Marsh was projected as a top 25 pick in the draft as of Friday. Hoover is a 3-5th rounder. He could have gotten his foot in bounds. When he grabbed his helmet he knew he blew it, not the QB

Hoover had at least 7 overthrows. Marsh didn’t toe tap, fine, but Hoover doesn’t heave that ball into the boundary then we win. Period.

You can’t run a successful offense on the basis of bailing the QB out.

Yes sure, but you would never deaign an offense to be like that going into season. Because you would now that is a losing strategy. The expectation should always be every one is great. Not a just better than good QB and phenomenal receiver. Josh failed to step up when it was his to deliver. Marsh was mislead and didn’t make a phenomal catch. Hoover is farther off expectations.
