Good thing Ohio State’s basketball team beat UT on Saturday, or these fans might be put on suicide watch. I can’t remember a one week period that has gone quite so badly for a single team. First, they get their asses handed to them in the National Championship game. Then, Anthony Gonzalez, who was thought to hang around for his senior season, leaves early. Now it’s Ted Ginn, Jr. And also Antonio Pittman, which really comes as a surprise.

That means that this team’s best wide receiver, tight end, running back and quarterback will all be gone next year, and there’s not even a national title to show for it. I know people will say they’re better off with Chris Wells at running back, but that’s a load of hog-wash.

In better news around the nation, Brian Brohm has decided he’ll return for his senior season. I don’t think he made this decision because he wants to come back, but rather because he’ll be a lock to be the first pick in next year’s draft. This year he would’ve had to compete with JaMarcus Russell (who’s becoming everyone’s popular first choice this year), and the Golden Boy from Notre Dame (who’s been everyone’s popular choice for a long time now).

Not only will Brohm be first pick, but he’ll probably get the Heisman, too, unless Arkansas’ Darren McFadden can really do something. Those are, like, the two players left in college whose names I know. Really.
