It’s been nearly four months since the season ended, which means we’re […]
Ohio State didn’t need another Kayden McDonald. They needed John Walker
Replacing a player like Kayden McDonald is almost impossible. Ohio State isn’t trying to find another defensive tackle who will replicate his production snap for snap or dominate every Saturday in the same fashion. Players like McDonald don’t come around often. Instead, the Buckeyes are taking a different approach. They’re rebuilding the interior through depth, […]

Ohio State continues to impress top prospects in the 2028 class
Ohio State has a lot going for their program when it comes to recruiting, but none may be stronger right now than the NFL success they are seeing with several of their former Buckeyes.

What happens if Ohio State’s young defensive linemen actually hit?

On the Record: Ryan Day will be named Big Ten Coach of the Year
Ohio State fans have had a love/hate relationship with Ryan Day over the years. Day won the first 16 games he coached the Buckeyes in, with the first three coming when he filled in for Urban Meyer when Meyer was suspended for the first three games of the 2018 season. Even though Ohio State lost […]

Don’t sleep on Earl Little Jr. and his All-American potential at Ohio State
