TreVeyon Henderson doesn't get enough pub | Evan Pryor too Jun 24, 2020

Show notes

Ohio State has a commitment from the No. 1 running back in the country in the 2021 class, TreVeyon Henderson. You already know that, but we probably don't talk about it enough. That changes on today's show as Matt Baxendell joins Dave Biddle. Also, we also probably don't talk about the Buckeyes having the No. 2 all-purpose back in the country in Evan Pryor. That will also change today.

Also, Bax is very confident we will have a college football season in 2020. Do you share his extreme confidence?

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

'Gabe Powers is special' Jun 23, 2020

Show notes

Recruiting may technically be dealing with a pandemic-inspired dead period but the talent acquisition game never ends. Ohio State remains steadfast in crafting the nation's top Class of 2021 haul while also making waves in 2022. Case in point: Gabs Powers. The in-state standout from Marysville tops the wish list for some and Duane Long shares his vibe on the highly-regarded defender.

Also:

* What's up with Jager Burton?

* Is the 2020 secondary natty champ good?

All that and more coming at you. Spend 5ish with us today, 'Nutters!

'Ohio State wants the smoke from anyone' Jun 19, 2020

Show notes

Ohio State has been loading up its future football schedule with home/home series against some of the top programs in the country. On Thursday, word broke that the Buckeyes have scheduled a home/home series with Alabama that will take place in 2027 (Columbus) and 2028 (Tuscaloosa). Jonah Booker drops by for his usual visit to join Dave Biddle to talk about that, plus:

* Which uncommitted 2021 recruit does JBook want the Buckeyes to land the most?

* Which true freshman will have the biggest impact for OSU this fall?

* What are we hearing about quarterback Justin Fields?

Who will be the four CFP teams this year? No fake outrage from Bax Jun 17, 2020

Show notes

Who will be the four College Football Playoff teams in 2020? That is one of the many questions Matt Baxendell and Dave Biddle answer on today's show. Also on the agenda is discussing the "fake outrage" from some national media members regarding Ohio State's players signing the "Buckeye pledge." Furthermore, other than Justin Fields and Shaun Wade, who is the most important returning starter for OSU this year? And even more topics include whether there is a trap game on the Buckeyes' schedule this fall, the latest news from OSU's voluntary workouts and more.

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

Duane's deal: Tristan Leigh, Jager Burton, Rocco Spindler, Harry Miller, Matt Jones Jun 16, 2020

Show notes

All the recruiting chatter in the last 48 hours has been offensive line focused. Which is great for this show considering Duane Long's usual appearance on Tuesdays. Duane goes into detail on Ohio State's burgeoning relationship with Virginia standout Tristan Leigh. How does he compare to other targets like Jager Burton and Rocco Spindler? Then we move to the current offensive line and review Dave Biddle's story yesterday about Harry Miller and Matt Jones fortifying Ohio State's middle. Spend 5ish with us today, 'Nutters!

Who will fill remaining O-line spots for Buckeyes in 2021 class? Jun 15, 2020

Has 2021 recruiting momentum slowed down for Ohio State? The Dean of OSU Football Recruiting, Bill Kurelic, joins Dave Biddle on today's show to give his detailed answer on that, plus:

* What is the latest with offensive line recruiting for the Buckeyes in the 2021 class? They want to fill four spots, but only have two OL commits. Who might fill the other two spots?

* What happened with the recruitment of JC Latham?

* We've known about this for a month, but somehow Ohio State players signing waivers (releasing the university from any liability regarding COVID-19) made national headlines last night.

All of that and more is in store for you on the Monday 5ish.

Ohio State chasing Frank Thomas, Big Daddy ... or both? Jun 11, 2020

Show notes

Ohio State has the current No. 1 recruiting class in 2021 for a reason. It's already an excellent array of talent loaded, especially at key positions like quarterback and defensive line. But there are other schools that can apparently still stand in the ring with the Buckeyes and Alabama is one of them. See Latham, J.C. 247Sports Director of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong is here to discuss J.C. Latham, Hudson Wolfe, J.T. Tuimoloau, Emeka Egbuka and Tywone Malone.
