Ohio State 5-Star QB Recruit Headed to Elite 11 Finals
Yesterday at 5:33 PM

Ohio State and Ryan Day's prized possession in next year's recruiting class has got to be 5-star QB Tavien St. Clair. With last year, and potentially this year, resulting in mediocre QB play from the Buckeyes, it's crucial for Ryan Day to land a home run in this upcoming recruiting class. Will Howard and Devin Brown are clearly not the caliber of players that Buckeye nation is accustomed to at the QB position. Can St. Clair bring Ohio State QB play back to the level of CJ Stroud, Justin Fields, and Dwayne Haskins?

OVE: Will the 2024 Ohio State Defense be the BEST In Program History?
Last Friday at 8:35 PM

The Ohio State defense from last season was one of the best in recent memory. Now, after bringing back multiple starters including Denzel Burke and JT Tuimoloau, and adding an All-American safety from Alabama in Caleb Downs, the expectations for this years Buckeye defense are through the roof. In a season with several question marks regarding the QB situation, perhaps Ryan Day and Ohio State will need to have one of the best defenses in recent college football memory in order to beat Michigan, win the Big Ten conference, and make a run at a national championship.

 


College Football's Biggest PROBLEM Regarding NIL & Transfer Portal
Last Friday at 5:46 PM

In the era of NIL and transfer portal, we're seeing a common problem throughout the sport of college football. Players are committing to and from schools at will throughout the recruitment process and then transferring to and from schools once they are enrolled. Ohio State and coach Ryan Day are familiar with this, as Dylan Raiola de-commit to two different schools, one of them being the Buckeyes, before finally landing with Matt Rhule and Nebraska. Now, Jaden Rashada is transferring from Arizona State after he also de-committed from several schools throughout his recruiting process. Is this problem fixable?

OVE: Has Ryan Day Put an END to the Ohio State QB Competition?
Last Thursday at 8:21 PM

The rumors are swirling around that Ohio State head coach Ryan Day has named a starter for the 2024 college football season after Day was spotted with Will Howard at his country club yesterday. However, with over 4 months to go before the season opener for the Buckeyes, are these reports a bit premature? Devin Brown was rumored to be the best QB multiple times throughout the spring, with Julian Saying providing some quality outing as well. With so much on the line for coach Ryan Day and Ohio State this upcoming season, is this QB battle seemingly over already? Can...


Has Coach Ryan Day Made a DECISION on the Ohio State QB Battle?
Last Thursday at 5:42 PM

Spring practice has come and gone without Ohio State head coach Ryan Day giving any indication on who the starting QB would be for the upcoming season. Devin Brown is the longest tenured guy in the room, and has reportedly been ahead of the pack after a majority of the spring practices. Julian Sayin has shown flashes of brilliance while also reminding everyone that he is only a true freshman at times. Then there's the million dollar man: Will Howard. The transfer from Kansas State who's both won a conference championship, and lost the starting job in the middle...


OVE: Ohio State Coach Jake Diebler Screwed by NEPOTISM LAW
Last Wednesday at 8:06 PM

Jake Diebler has already run into trouble with the law... not really, but Ohio State denied his request to hire his own brother who was a former player for the Buckeyes and holds the school record for most career 3-pointers made. With the new head coach making waves in the transfer portal bringing back former Buckeye star Meechie Johnson and ex-Kentucky 5-star Aaron Bradshaw, it seems like things are trending in the right direction for the men's basketball program. Also - latest updates on the NCAA sanction for the Michigan football program and the end to a terribly disappointing...


CRISIS for the Michigan Football Program Amid NCAA Sanctions
Last Wednesday at 5:59 PM

Breaking news hit yesterday afternoon when the NCAA dropped sanctions on the Michigan football program stemming back to a 2020 violation, referred to as 'Burger Gate', when Michigan coaches, including Jim Harbaugh, illegally met with recruits during what was supposed to be a dead period during the COVID pandemic. Is this the beginning of the end for the Michigan football program? As Ryan Day and Ohio State get set to avenge the last three losses to the Wolverines, it seems as though the folks in Ann Arbor will be preoccupied with the latest drama. Did Jim Harbaugh leave for the...

Ohio State Football UPDATES On Who's Hitting the Transfer Portal
04/16/2024

The spring window of the transfer portal is officially open and we've already seen a couple big names hit the portal around college football, one of them being former Buckeye RB Dallan Hayden who could team up with his former coach in Michigan. With five different QBs vying for snaps in practice, one has to believe that one (if not more) of the Buckeyes QB room will be departing from Columbus. There's also the chance that Ohio State could lose some talent on the defensive side of the ball as well, after returning so many starters from last season...
