Sark has me confident too! I think Sayin is the real crux of this game. Unless he’s a superstar they will have some troubles. 5 star QBs struggle or flat out bust all the time. Starting your first game against a hellacious pass rush and you’re not a natural runner? C’mon, anyone would have trouble let alone a wet behind the ears starter.

Very.

What was the vibe like? Sark seem confident?

Congrats on winning the headgear contest ?

This reads like Mosley is available.

Thanks CJ and Jeff ! Appreciate the work fellas 🤘🏻

I think someone reported that 2027 wr Easton Royal will be there this Saturday

That's it from Sark for today. The next time we'll hear from him will be after Saturday's game.

That is all from Sarkisian today.

Sark said Mason Shipley had "a nice last 2.5 weeks of camp."

Sarkisian says he thinks Mason Shipley really came along strong in the last 2.5 weeks of training camp.

Sark called Max Klare a "dangerous weapon" and a nice compliment to the other Ohio State receiving threats.

Sark has been impressed with Endries' versatility, including his willingness to be a blocker.

"His versatility is something that excites me."

Any recruits planning to be at the game that we should be aware of? Seems like this game should be bringing in some interesting ones for sure (although early start won't help)...

Several years ago a promoter approached Texas and Oklahoma with a proposal to play the game in the infield of the Texas Motor Speedway North of Fort Worth. I saw the artist's conception drawings and it frankly looked ridiculous. But the promoter talked about potentially pulling in 250-300k fans for the game at the NASCAR venue. A different promoter tried selling the two universities on playing the game at Jerrah Jones World after it was completed in 2010. Uh, no. Another guy billing himself as "Eas E. Money" or some such tried to convince the teams to go to a Home and Home version...no thanks, Eas E was told. I've lived in six different states since graduating from UT in 1978 and I made it a point to go to CFB games around the Nation. The Texas -OU game in the old Cotton Bowl Stadium at the State Fair of Texas is THE most unique setting for a big-time college football game in America. Hook 'Em!

Sark: "I love Jack Endries."

He wants them exposed to the travel routine (Texas doesn't have a travel roster limit for non-conference road games).

Sark said all true freshmen will travel to Ohio State.

Sarkisian says he is bringing all of his freshmen to Columbus.

Sark said Cole Huston has the physical ability to match his toughness since he's had a full offseason to work with Torre Becton.

Sarkisian says he has the physicality to match the nastiness he has always had at the position.

Steve Sarkisian on C Cole Hutson: "What I love about Cole Hutson is this guy is blue-collar... He is tough ass, he is smart, he has had to grind throughout his career."

On Cole Hutson: "He's a blue-collar guy. He's a tough ass. He's smart."
