If Notre Dame can’t recruit 5-Star wide receivers out of high school, they are well on their way to being more than competent of doing out of the transfer portal. After what has been an up and down — cold and hot — recruitment of Ohio State wide receiver, Mylan Graham, he has finally given […]
In the new era of mass exodus in the transfer portal, having a successful transfer class could make or break the season. Ohio State’s 2024 transfer class, which included Caleb Downs, Will Howard, Quinshon Judkins, Julian Sayin, and Seth McLaughlin (among others), propelled that Buckeye team to a national title. Thus far, Ohio State has […]
Each year, it seems like more and more Ohio State players enter the transfer portal, and this year it has seemed particularly bad. It feels like a new graphic pops up on social media every hour on the hour with a new name from Ohio State’s roster entering the transfer portal. Social media is not […]
Here they come now… Notre Dame’s run in the transfer portal is a good one this year, and today most are being made public. Next up is Ohio State wide receiver, Quincy Porter. Porter was a 5-Star prospect in 2025 from Bergen Catholic High School in New Jersey. At 6’4” and 210 pounds, Porter is […]
The two teams Ohio State lost to this season are now playing in the national championship next Monday night. On one hand, it shows that Indiana and Miami are both really good teams. But on the other hand, it shows how far, at least right now, the Buckeyes are away from winning a national championship […]

Eric Mensah is finally home. If you’re a Virginia Tech fan, you remember Mensah’s name. A defensive tackle from Mountain View High School in Stafford, Virginia, initially committed to the Hokies in the 2024 recruiting class. Mensah committed to Virginia Tech on July 17, 2023, and visited Ohio State on September 9, was offered, and […]
After a 72-69 loss to the No. 10 Nebraska Cornhuskers, Ohio State head coach Jake Diebler knew something had to change in regard to the bench production. In the three-point loss, the bench combined for 22 minutes, zero points, zero assists and three rebounds on 0-for-2 shooting, two missed layups by Brandon Noel. “Passing up […]
Racing Louisville have called in more reinforcements to their roster after making their first postseason appearance in 2025.

The contract is for two years with 2027 being a mutual option. “I am deeply honored to be joining Racing Louisville FC! Playing […]
The Wisconsin Badgers have added quite a bit in their cornerback room, but they got an interesting name on campus on Thursday night: former five-star defensive back Aaron Scott, according to 247Sports’s Allen Trieu. Scott, a sophomore at Ohio State in 2025, was one of two key defensive backs who transferred out of the program […]

The beat rolls on as the past few days continues to be some of the busiest times for Ohio State’s program. Changes aplenty to their current roster in the works, the coaching staff found Thursday to be much of the same, but good news led the way seeing the Buckeyes land another player via the […]
As Ohio State begins reshaping its roster through the transfer portal, one under‑the‑radar but increasingly important area of need has emerged: linebacker. The Buckeyes face significant turnover at a position that has been a defensive anchor the past few seasons, with stars Sonny Styles and Arvell Reese expected to depart for the NFL. With both […]

Penn State continued its roster rebuild on Tuesday evening, landing former Ohio State running back James Peoples. Peoples is a 5-foot-10, 206-pound running back that was a consensus Top 150 prospect in the 2024 recruiting class. He enrolled early at Ohio State and skipped a redshirt season, seeing time in eight games in mostly mop […]
Ohio State’s football season was eventually going to end. Unfortunately, the 2025 season ended about three weeks earlier than Buckeye Nation would have preferred it to. Last season, Ohio State won the national championship in the middle of January, and with the title celebration coming about a week later, Buckeye fans didn’t have to find […]
It took me longer than a lot of Buckeye fans to get on the “Ohio State is going to repeat because almost everyone else is mediocre” train this season, not because I disagreed that most teams in the pool were mediocre this year (aside from Indiana, I still feel that to be true), but because […]
The transfer portal has become less about patching holes and more about taking calculated swings that can alter a program’s trajectory. Ohio State has never been shy about recruiting at an elite level, but in the modern era, championship margins are often decided by a handful of portal additions who fit both scheme and culture. […]
Tonight is the 23rd anniversary of the most controversial call in college football history, and three nights ago Miami finally got its revenge. No. 10 Miami shocked No. 2 Ohio State 24-14 in the Cotton Bowl, ending the Buckeyes’ quest to become the first repeat national champion in the 12-team playoff era, and the first […]
Happy New Year, Canes fans! While your Miami Hurricanes beat Ohio State 24-14 yesterday to advance to Fiesta Bowl in the CFP Semifinals, they don’t have an opponent yet. They will after this last game of the night. This is a rematch from the epic 43-35 game between these teams played in October. Georgia won that game, […]
If you had Ohio State tabbed as your College Football Playoff winner please accept my sympathies. One thing we’re learning here in the new, expanded playoff era is that when you have to run a gauntlet of some of the best teams in America you can take nothing for granted. Today brings three more contests […]
The first of the quarterfinal games finished up with Miami landing a resounding win over the heavily favored Ohio State last night. Who could have ever seen that one coming?? (Hint… that’s me!) But the real festivities begin today, with Oregon and Texas Tech squaring off in the Orange Bowl at 11:00 CT. Or, if […]

Ohio State didn’t take the field this past weekend, but the playoff picture sharpened anyway. Bowl season churned on, narratives shifted, and the College Football Playoff quarterfinals came into full focus. For the Buckeyes, the pause served less as a break and more as a final recalibration point before New Year’s Eve, when Ohio State […]
