May the football be with you? May 04, 2020

Show notes

It is May the 4th, so fill in your Star Wars jokes here. What is not funny is the idea of no football this fall. However, is momentum mounting for football to be played as scheduled this fall? One Ohio lawmaker is adamant there should be football this year and there is currently a 5-page thread on The Front Row mess. Steve Helwagen joins Dave Biddle on today's show to discuss that, plus:

* Ohio State keeps adding commitments during the pandemic, the latest being 2022 athlete C.J. Hicks from Kettering Alter.

* Is Steve surprised the Buckeyes are recruiting at such an elite level?

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

Show notes

What is the latest with high 4-star offensive tackle J.C. Latham? Is he still leaning Ohio State's way, or has his interest in the Buckeyes cooled? Jonah Booker drops by for his usual Friday visit to discuss that, plus:

* What other offensive line recruits for the 2021 class is JBook keeping a close eye on?

* Was the 2016 Ohio State-Michigan game the highlight of the Jim Harbaugh era at UM so far, even though the Buckeyes won? ESPN featured the "Game of Inches" in prime time last night, so once again the '16 game was at the forefront of the sports world.

* How will players being able to profit off their name, image and likeness impact Ohio State?

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

Feeling Foreman? | Dan's Top 10 Buckeyes for 2021 NFL Draft Apr 30, 2020

Show notes

247Sports Director of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong is here in his usual Thursday spot and once again has wisdom to spread.

* The nation's No. 1 overall player - defensive end Korey Foreman - said last night he has interest in Ohio State. Is it mutual? Is this a case of Ohio State just wanting to horde very great player available?

* Is J.C. Latham still leaning towards the Buckeyes? A few weeks ago, this felt like basically a done deal. Now? Not so much.

* Why are Ole Miss and Texas A&M the two program tussling hardest with Ohio State for New Jersey standout Tywone Malone?

Wiltfong clears up all three recruitments.

* Then it is back to projecting riches for your Buckeyes. On Tuesday's show, Duane Long offered up his thoughts on the 2021 NFL Draft and which Buckeyes would be selected (in order). Today, it's Dan's turn to list a top 10. Changes abound.

Head start on '22 | Seven spots left in '21? Apr 23, 2020

Show notes

Ohio State currently has the No. 1 2021 recruiting class ... by a wide margin. Has the staff gotten bored with the competition and moved on to 2022?

Not exactly.

But Ryan Day and Co. did kick off Class of 2022 additions yesterday when New Orleans native Jyaire Brown verbally committed to the Buckeyes.

We break down his commitment with 247Sports Director of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong. But that's not all. We also delve into how 2021 will finish off.

* Three more 5-stars on the way?

* David Davidkov's inspirational journey to ... Columbus?
