Two Weeks That Could Change The Future Of Ohio State Football Jan 14, 2024

Show notes

When the Ohio State football team walked off the field at the end of the Cotton Bowl, the program was in one of the lowest points it had been in years. They ended the 2023 season with two consecutive losses, missed the College Football Playoff for the second time in three seasons, and were at risk of losing close to a dozen underclassmen to the NFL Draft.
Just over two weeks later, things look very different around the program. All but two of those underclassmen decided to return for 2024, the Buckeye offense has added four key pieces in the Transfer Portal, recruiting is on a roll, and an overhaul of the assistant coaching staff is underway.
Kevin Noon of BuckeyeHuddle.com joins host Tom Orr to discuss the dramatic swing in momentum for Ryan Day's program, and what it could mean for 2024.

For the first time in the Brian Hartline era, the Ohio State football team brought in a wide receiver who was in the Transfer Portal.

Tony Gerdeman of BuckeyeHuddle.com joins host Tom Orr to discuss the impact of Rodgers' return and more.
Dominic Kirks, a 2024 defensive end from northeast Ohio, just decommitted from Washington and is visiting Columbus this weekend. Will the Buckeyes add him to their recruiting class?
And with rumors flying, how likely is it that Alabama safety Caleb Downs jumps in the Transfer Portal after the retirement of Nick Saban, and is it realistic to think that he could end up a Buckeye?
