Ohio State gaining ground with multiple recruits following spring visits
Midway through March and much of the talk around Columbus rightfully is focused on the Ohio State men’s basketball Buckeyes making the NCAA Tournament for the first time in years. The appearance is the first for both Ohio State head coach Jake Diebler and Ohio State new-leading scoring Bruce Thornton, and the Buckeyes drew TCU […]
Join the Land-Grant Basketball Land women’s basketball bracket challenge
Welcome to March, which means corned beef, a handful of fake springs in Central Ohio and the NCAA Tournament. Ohio State women’s basketball is back in the annual tournament for the fifth season in a row, and the fourth time hosting the first two rounds of tournament. The Buckeyes host the Howard Bison on Saturday, […]

Amare Bynum providing joy, energy, and big buckets for tourney-bound Buckeyes
Ohio State’s freshman forward Amare Bynum loves to show up to practice every day. If you spot the 6-foot-8, 240-pound forward during practice, pre-game shoot around, or on the bench during a game, odds are he’s smiling. Even when getting chewed out at practice for a misstep, it’s impossible to dampen the enthusiasm Bynum brings […]
Replacing Kayden McDonald may require a group effort
Ohio State must reload defensively for the second consecutive year. With several special players departing — safety Caleb Downs and linebackers Arvell Reese and Sonny Styles chief among them — perhaps the most difficult player to find a like-for-like replacement will be nose tackle Kayden McDonald. The big man in the middle was not your […]
Ohio State Buckeyes who have had a notable March so far
Shakespeare once said “beware the Ides of March.” Instead of warning about impending misfortune and political betrayal, today we are shouting “beware the (Buck)Eyes of March.” It has already been a notable month already for a number of Ohio Staters and we are only halfway through March. Just imagine what we might see from those […]

Off-Script Ohio: Buckeyes are dancing and spring football storylines
Ohio State men’s basketball spent most of February living on the bubble. Now the Buckeyes are dancing. After a late-season push that included wins over Purdue, Penn State, Indiana, and Iowa, Ohio State secured an 8-seed in the NCAA Tournament and will open March Madness against No. 9 TCU in Greenville, South Carolina. The turnaround […]
Ohio State’s three most exciting matchups in 2026
For the longest time, the Ohio State football schedule had only two or three notable matchups each year. The Buckeyes typically played at least one marquee game in the non-conference slate, and the only two losable (on paper) Big Ten games outside of that had been Penn State and Michigan. That is no longer the […]
No. 3 Ohio State women to host Howard in NCAA Tournament first round

NCAA Tournament Opening Odds: No. 8 Ohio State vs. No. 9 TCU
Ohio State men’s basketball spent most of this season on the bubble, but a hot stretch at the end that saw the Buckeyes win their final three games — including a win over No. 8 Purdue, the eventual Big Ten champs — plus a victory over Iowa in the B1G Tournament had them entering Selection […]

Our streaming expert explains how to watch NCAA Men’s and Women’s Selection Shows
It has been four years since both the Ohio State men’s and women’s basketball teams have made the NCAA Tournament. But, my friends, that drought (all of the men’s team’s doing) ends today, as we already know that Kevin McGuff’s women’s squad will host the first two rounds by virtue of being one of the […]
Ohio State’s women’s ice hockey team hosts Yale in NCAA Tournament

Who will emerge as Ohio State’s WR2 behind Jeremiah Smith?
Ohio State rarely lacks talent at wide receiver. For nearly a decade the Buckeyes have operated with one of the deepest receiver rooms in college football, producing a steady stream of NFL talent while reloading with elite recruits and transfers. But even in a room full of playmakers, roles still matter. Heading into the 2026 […]

No need to stress, here’s why Ohio State is (un)officially in the NCAA Tournament
With their nail-biting 72-69 win over Iowa in the third round of the Big Ten Tournament on Thursday, the Ohio State Buckeyes removed even the slimmest sliver of doubt about their spot in the Big Dance.

Nate Roberts could be one of Ohio State’s most underrated offensive pieces heading into next season
Ohio State’s tight end room has quietly become one of the deepest position groups on the roster. In recent seasons the Buckeyes have used a rotation of tight ends to balance blocking responsibilities, play-action threats, and situational versatility. That depth often means some players contribute without drawing much attention. One of those players is Nate […]
