'It's the biggest question on the Buckeyes' defense' May 08, 2019

Show notes

What is the biggest question on Ohio State's defense?

Middle linebacker. At least, according to The People's Champ, Matt Baxendell, who joins Dave Biddle for today's show.

But Bax likely isn't alone. Almost every OSU fan would say the same thing when asked about the defense.

Will the starter be Tuf Borland, Teradja Mitchell or Baron Browning? Will there be a rotation?

Also on the docket:

* A look at the Buckeyes' depth and projected starters on the offensive line.

* Thoughts on Matthew Baldwin deciding to join TCU's program.

All of that and more on the Wednesday extravaganza.

No defense for Class of 2020? May 07, 2019

Show notes

We all knew Ryan Day wouldn't be just like Urban Meyer. But is the new boss taking things to the extreme? Yes, Day is known for his offensive wizardry. But he is aware there is another side of the ball ... right?

Right?

Ohio State's current Class of 2020 haul has eight members - seven on offense, one on defense. And the defensive player? He's basically and Urban Meyer holdover recruit.

What gives?

We delve into that and other recruiting intrigue with the Dean of Ohio State Recruiting Bill Kurelic, who steps in for the otherwise disposed Duane Long.

The Joshua Perry Show: Young Buckeyes who are on the rise May 06, 2019

Show notes

Who is a young, inexperienced player on each side of the ball that Ohio State fans should keep a close eye on this year?

That is one of the topics of conversation on The Joshua Perry Show today. Also on the docket:

* What are the Buckeyes doing during this time of the year?

* Why is Mickey Marotti so good at his craft?

* Will Urban Meyer coach again?

All of that and more is coming at you on The Joshua Perry Show.

Will Urban Meyer coach again? May 06, 2019

Show notes

You know it is the offseason when this is the main topic of conversation on the show, but let's have at it: Will Urban Meyer coach again?

It seems to be a relatively hot topic not just in Buckeye circles, but among college football fans in general.

Would Meyer coach at USC? Or another program? And why should you care? Because he would likely take a couple of very important men with him: Mickey Marotti (who just signed a new contract at Ohio State, but there would be ways to get out of it) and Mark Pantoni.

What if Ryan Day becomes a megastar at Ohio State, and then leaves to be an NFL head coach in a few years? Could Meyer actually return to OSU to be the Buckeyes' coach one day?

[This is where we remind you again it's the offseason.]

Also, what are thoughts on the job Day is doing thus far? We won't really know how to grade him until the 2019 season plays out, but what do we think thus far?

And what is the latest on Ohio State basketball recruiting for the 2020 class?

Steve Helwagen joins Dave Biddle for all of that and more on the Wednesday extravaganza.

Predicting the Buckeyes' 12-game regular-season record May 03, 2019

Show notes

What will Ohio State's 12-game regular-season record be in 2019 in Ryan Day's first full season as head coach?

Jonah Booker joins Dave Biddle on today's show to answer that question, plus:

* What are JBook's biggest concerns offensively and defensively for the Buckeyes this year?

* What does he feel best about as he analyzes this roster on both sides of the ball?

* JBook played college football at Ohio University, the type of school that does not make much money off its football program (some schools even lose money on football). Does JBook agree with Joshua Perry that all FBS college football players should get paid?

All of that and more is coming at you on the Friday extravaganza.

Is Ryan Day the new quarterback whisperer? May 02, 2019

Show notes

Ryan Day has yet to lead the Buckeyes into Ohio Stadium as the 'real' head coach. A three-game interim showing when you know the incumbent Rock Star is coming back to the stage is one thing.

Now it's Day's show.

This much Day has already proven beyond the shadow of a doubt: The guy can coach and RECRUIT quarterbacks. Does this give Ohio State a real advantage going forward as the recruiting scene for quarterbacks is more chaotic now than it has ever been?

We bring in 247Sports Director of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong to discuss that and much more. Including: Who is really Ohio State's recruiting rival out on the trail?

Spend 5ish with us today, 'Nutters!

'Penn State fans should be grumpy about it' May 01, 2019

Show notes

Ohio State landed four-star quarterback Kyle McCord on Tuesday, and he hails from Philadelphia.

The People's Champ, Matt Baxendell, joins Dave Biddle for today's show to discuss McCord's decision to become a Buckeye. And Bax thinks Penn State fans should be salty about losing out on McCord.

It is a quarterback-themed show as we also delve into what to expect from Gunnar Hoak, Justin Fields and more.

All of that and more is coming at you on the Wednesday extravaganza,

Did Buckeyes win QB shuffle? | Weber nails landing spot Apr 30, 2019

Show notes

Yes, it is technically the offseason. But this is Ohio State football. Is there really an offseason?

Judging by the news generated in the last seven days since Duane Long was here on the BM5, there is nothing 'off' about it.

The Buckeyes quarterback carousel has spun itself into a new rotation. Gunnar Hoak is back home after three years in Kentucky. What type of role will he have?

There was also this little talent acquisition event called the NFL Draft. Think New Year's Eve in NYC meets Nashville.

Nine Buckeyes were selected.

Who landed in the best spot?

All that and more with Duane today so spend 5ish with us!

The Joshua Perry Show: Should college football players get paid? Apr 29, 2019

Show notes

It is a divisive topic, but one we are going to delve deep into on The Joshua Perry Show today.

Should college football players get paid?

And before you say, "They already get paid. They get a full-ride scholarship, plus a cost-of-attendance stipend on top of that." Yes, everyone knows that. The question is should get they paid a lot more than they currently do, considering the money that college football generates?

If they did get paid a lot more, how would it work? Would starters get paid more than fourth-teamers? Would everyone get paid equally?

What about the non-revenue sports? How would paying the football players be in line with Title IX regulations if you didn't pay the non-revenue athletes?

Joshua and Dave Biddle have about a 24-minute discussion on the topic, so strap yourself in for a lively edition of the JP show!
