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 […]

The quiet development of Colin White and Ivan Njegovan has strengthened Ohio State’s depth

Ohio State’s basketball season has largely been defined by its core rotation.

Amare Bynum’s breakout may be the key to Ohio State’s ceiling

Ohio State’s basketball season has largely revolved around its backcourt. Bruce Thornton’s scoring and leadership, along with John Mobley Jr.’s perimeter shooting, have shaped much of the Buckeyes’ offensive identity. But as the season has moved toward March, another storyline has started to take shape. Freshman forward Amare Bynum has quietly evolved from a developmental […]

Remember When: Devin Smith was Ohio State’s deep ball demon

Devin Smith was never destined to rack up receptions at Ohio State. The track star specializing in sprints and the long jump out of Massillon High was a three-star recruit and his specialty was always going to be taking the top off the defense. That’s exactly what he did during his time at Ohio State. […]

What are the Ohio men’s odds to win the Big Ten and NCAA Tournaments?

You would be forgiven for checking out on the Ohio State men’s basketball team following a demoralizing 74-57 loss to Iowa on Feb. 25.
