Here’s some of the latest, and best – on winning, and lots of interest on OSU football and what we didn’t say about Urban Meyer in a recent story. Enjoy! (Photos Courtesy of OSU Sports)
Before they kick off on Friday night, let’s try to put some perspective on why area football teams are out there in the first place. And if winning is their focus, why apologize for it? Why play if you don’t intend to win?
As things rev up for the coming sports season, so as well the comments of those reading and responding to the latest topics on Press Pros…specifically, hall of fame coach Al Hetrick (above), baseball in the shadow of New Carlisle’s skyline, and “the man who could be your next coach”, but probably not. Enjoy your latest!
