'It's a big risk for Ryan Day' Feb 05, 2021

Show notes

What does Jonah Booker think of the recent staff moves at Ohio State? Well, he's in a wait-and-see mode, but he makes no bones that it's a "big risk" for head coach Ryan Day. What can be expected from Matt Barnes and Parker Fleming? Also, how will things shake out at running back for the Buckeyes in 2021?

JBook joins Dave Biddle to discuss all of that and much more on the Friday 5ish.

Sitting on '21 | Hitting on '22 Feb 04, 2021

Show notes

Ohio State exited National Signing Day with the nation's No. 2 class and the cycle's top target still in reach.

That means today we turn our focus towards the Class of 2022. We do so with great joy. The Buckeyes are off to a tremendous start.

What does it all mean? How do we put in '21 in context as we shift to '22?

247Sports Director of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong is here to bring the goods.

'He blew me away' Jan 28, 2021

Show notes

National Signing Day is six days away. But Ohio State is not close to putting the finishing touches on the Class of 2021?

Why?

Good question and thankfully, we have the answer man. 247Sports Director of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong is here to handle the following queries.

* When will wire-to-wire No. 1 prospect J.T. Tuimolaou commit?

* Did the visit to Columbus last week tip the scale for Raesjon Davis?

* Kyion Grayes loves Ohio State. If so ... why no commitment as yet?

* Could a move to Ohio following a Buckeye commitment not end with attending college in Columbus? We talk Jyaire Brown.

* Khakis vs. Common Sense: Who leads for Will Johnson?

* Which Florida defensive back and future Buckeye caused Wiltfong to heap on the praise? (Hint: Jaheim Singletary)

Raesjon, Ricks & Rookies Jan 26, 2021

Show notes

Ohio State's roster is going to be impressive next season. The exact makeup of said roster is still in flux. Given the new transfer rules we have entered uncharted waters. Will the Buckeyes take advantage?

Duane Long is here to break it all down. We discuss California linebacker Raesjon Davis and his family's visit to Columbus this weekend. Are the Buckeyes really in the mix?

There are several high-profile 'possible' transfers looking for a new home. Will that home be Columbus? Duane has two names he's ready to pencil in.

We finish with a look at the freshmen in the mix and who will see the field first.

Replacing Mattison | What are Buckeyes doing now? Jan 25, 2021

Show notes

What is Ryan Day looking for as he searches for Greg Mattison's replacement? Will it be someone who will have a lot of say in how Ohio State operates its defense?

* How much do we know about Kerry Coombs as defensive coordinator after just eight games?

* Who will be Ohio State's starting linebackers in 2021?

* What are the Buckeyes doing now in terms of their workouts with Mickey Marotti and his staff?

* Which players that returned to OSU for another season surprised Patrick the most?

All of that and more is coming your way on the Monday 5ish.
