I pity the fools losing the black stripe at the very end of camp!!! Just sayin'...
Better than losing it the following spring like Eli Apple. There is no guarantee that a guy will lose the stripe in camp (most don't). And Apple turned out to be a good player.
The standards are high at Ohio State to become a true Buckeye.

From what I understand, losing the stripe is less about ability and more about work ethic. Most of these kids have been the greatest player, by a wide margin, on their team since they were in pee wee and have never had to work THAT hard.
It's tough for them to come in and grind it out everyday.
