Columbus is a great town and completely different than the rest of Ohio. Dont use Cleveland and Cincy as a basis for Columbus, those are old would dying manufacturing city while Cbus is a "new money" thriving city.

Oh its not going to happen; my gut feeling is he stays until the Florida job opens up.
I don't know why the ACC wastes any of its time putting anything in Florida at all. It would be better to alternate between Charlotte and Atlanta on the years that the SEC is in New Orleans. Richmond would be a great neutral city too, but they don't have an FBS caliber stadium.
Yup, it's a pretty white collar city and pretty huge in the tech industry right now. I work for Chase and we have a pretty huge presence here. Dallas is also huge for mortgage banking for Chase, but again, I'm comfortable here. It's a pretty nice city and easy to get around. I won't live here forever, I know that, but that's nothing against Columbus.
This is probably where I say that what I say on here does not reflect the views of my company.
Cleveland has Great Lakes Brewing though. That makes up for...well everything.
We can get that everywhere here.. We also get Founders, Dogfish Head, Left Hand, etc.. All the big ones.
I've heard that about PSU before. I wasn't sure how much stock to put into it though.
Iowa however? I got nothing.
Sadly Great Lakes doesn't distribute in Florida yet. Huge bummer as we do get all the ones you mentioned. Founders doesn't do much for me, though, but plenty of local stuff makes up for it.
Out west folks...do you get the following?
Yuengling
Abita
Sweetwater
Magic Hat
Victory
Terrapin
Highland

Abita is probably the most prominent of those out here. I've seen Yuengling and Sweetwater, but they're tough to find. Haven't heard of the other ones.
I wish we could get Terrapin here but they don't have distribution in Ohio yet.
Sweetwater is good too.Cornballer

Any juicy player or former player reactions to the execution? Apparently, UConn players were high fiving in class when PP got whacked.

We get Abita here in Houston, especially at Cajun restaurants and LSU alumni hangouts, but none of the others. You might find them at Spec's (a large liquor store that would make you weep), but in general, most places stock local beer for their "craft" selection. St Arnolds and Karbach are the big winners here in Houston, with 8th Wonder and No Name being the up and coming brewers.
And if they don't have that, there is always Shiner.

But for whatever dumb reason it took the longest time for it to finally arrive in Ohio.

What's up with you people and Yuengling, don't you have your own damn beers?
Does no one in Ohio or Alabama brew a decent beer? You have to get it from Pennsylvania?

Hey I don't drink it often, I just said it's available. And yeah, craft beer made in Ohio is still fairly young I think, aside from Great Lakes. Columbus Brewing Company is around but I honestly haven't had any of their stuff yet. I hear it's okay.

Yeah we didnt get it until what 4-5 years ago? Seems insane for it being made in PA. I will say out of all the giant mass prudced, breweries, Yuengling is the best

All I've heard is former Trojans saying they were "surprised" but nothing more than that. Current players didn't really say anything bad about Kiffin but are clearly wanting to move on.
More importantly, I've seen some comments from recruits saying, "I was never going to play for Kiffin, but now USC looks interesting."

Look, there are two Ohioans here that said "Finally" to Yuengling moving into their market. It's a depressing state of affairs for a depressing state like Ohio.
I couldn't tell you why that is, I'm not an Ohioan. Columbus isn't depressing.
God, I would kill to get Great Lakes here in OK.
We don't even get Dogfish Head, Stone, or New Belgium (although I think NB is overrated). Our liquor laws suck.
Nobody from here has progressed a love for Yuengling, I was just surprised it wasn't available everywhere. Locally, I <3 Good People: http://www.goodpeoplebrewing.com/

It's not like we were rejoicing and singing praises to Heaven when it finally arrived. It's not like we don't have any great beer here already. (Great Lakes is beautiful stuff, obviously.)
We're just saying it was nice to have another decent cheap beer around, and we were confused why it took so long.

Always a case of Dortmunder Gold in my fridge.
I don't understand why people think this. Has Gruden ever shown a desire or ability to recruit? That shit's tough.

Gruden's not happening. Got mentioned last time. Never seen any realistic chance of it happening, he seems happy with MNF.
He's a hit with everyone. Watching his QB school or whatever I think he'd be great. Plus every high school football player in the country knows who he is because of MNF.
But yeah, he seems long in the tooth for MNF.
Mike Bellotti? lol.

I hear Tressel is looking for work, bring his high flying offense in.
Still can't get it in Indiana or Wisconsin.

Tom Herman our OC was getting called last year about HC jobs but promised Urbz 2 years. USC could get on a good young coach.
I don't think you're missing anything you can't get there already. Better than the macrobreweries, but not as good as a decent craft beer.

Yeah, I like it for when im at the bar watching sports all day and dont want to break the bank on craft beers.

I hear that.
The Gruden to USC talk is funny. He's not going anywhere. While USC is a great gig, I don't think that he's interested in coaching right now. He's enjoying his time as an analyst. Being an analyst carries with a lot less stress and hours than being a head coach. Just ask Urban.

Lies. He would have to coach against Oregon and Stanford. He's quite happy only having to coach against Wiscy. And he would obviously live in Malibu. duh.
