Slow Down My Friends

Not so fast, My Friend. Everyone is talking about Coach Jim Tressel and the future of Ohio State QB Terrelle Pryor and rightfully so. But lets talk about the interim Head Coach of The Ohio State Buckeyes Coach Luke Fickell. I have gotten to know Coach Luke Fickell over the past few years due to the fact that he recruited the Western Pennsylvania region for the Buckeyes. Luke Fickell is an excellent person with a solid personality. The media needs to give relax and let the 2011 season play out. The media is already talking about Jim Tressel's replacement with out giving Luke Fickell a chance. Some internet outlets have Jon Gruden as the next Ohio State Coach in 2012 or Urban Meyer filling Jim Tressel shoes. But what about Coach Fickell. With a depleted roster the first 5 games, anything can happen for Ohio State especially in the away Miami game. Once all the players return for game 6, then who knows how effective the Buckeyes will be. What if Ohio State has a 10 and 2 season under Luke Fickell. Do you let the former Buckeye go and bring in an outsider? Let's not put the cart before the horse. The media should give Luke Fickell a chance before they start figuring out who the next Ohio State Head Coach will be. Slow down my friends.
