Love it. Hope he holds the o line extra accountable. Just what the team needs.

 

[MustafaSTL]

I saw that, but then also saw it came from Buckeye Scoop. Either way, most lines up with what others have said as well.

Do we really think he gained 20lbs of actual muscle or whatever in two weeks tho or is this just water weight + a cpl extra tacos from Local Cantina?

I wish he did more bts or videos of what he's doing to show he's embracing the ever evolving sports science/technology of the world. I wonder if he would be open to bringin' somebody like Schlegs in who Urban took wit him to Jacksonville & is a straight up meathead even at his age lol. I read for the longest, Mick wouldn't even work wit prominent fitness guys in the city who wanted to partner wit him, show him some stuff on the stubborn tip but Idk. Kinda hard to read.

I remember the shyt like (below) but this was almost 10 yrs ago & things have evolved now

I can’t pretend to know what Mick does with his training. And some message board gurus acting like they do kill me. Some want to argue that his methods are outdated. Dudes go to the combine and test off the charts, so don’t see where there’s a deficiency in speed and strength training.

I know that there been grumblings for the last couple of years but I don't think that conditioning has been an issue with the team. It just been either defense, offense or conservation coaching that cost the team key wins in the last few years. We were a missed field goal from beating Georgia last year and both losses this year were not blow outs at all . Most of those folks on 11 warriors or other OSU sites just like to b1tch and blame everything when something goes wrong.

Some on 11W, Buckeye Huddle, etc. are talking up this conjugate training method popularized at Westside Barbell and saying Mick doesn’t focus on this like other programs. At first people blamed the strength and conditioning program for the number of injuries we had the past few years, but last year wasn’t bad regarding injuries, just the same nicks and sprains and bruises every team goes through. I don’t really think it’s an issue, just something for people to bytch about.

@OSUBaneBrowns @MustafaSTL I think people have also let the outside noise about being "soft" or gettin' pushed around (cuz of a few games a cpl years ago) get into their head and think we need to make crazy changes. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying there isn't room to add ish but I also don't know what goes on in their now and they've done a pretty good job of funneling to the NFL where, like you said, niccas do pretty damn good on the tests & ish, but I also don't think Mick has all of a sudden forgot everything he's learned over 2+ decades.

It would be interesting to see what the outside guys who've come in would have to say tho in comparison to where they're coming from.
