Downs, Ransom best OSU safety tandem since ...? Aug 21, 2024

Show notes

Caleb Downs and Lathan Ransom are going to form one of the best safety tandems in college football this season. It sparked a question that we have been pondering: When was the last time Ohio State had a safety combination this good?

Also, is the other shoe going to drop at Michigan relatively soon, or should fans not get their hopes up since the NCAA moves at a very slow pace?

Matt Baxendell and Dave Biddle also take a look at biggest developments from the Buckeyes' training camp and more.

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

Biggest storylines from Buckeyes' training camp | OL recruiting strategy needs to change? Aug 19, 2024

Show notes

What have been the biggest storylines during Ohio State's training camp with the season opener just 12 days away? Well, there are the obvious developments such as Will Howard being named the starting quarterback. But what about beyond that? What have been some of the most interesting developments on both sides of the ball for the Buckeyes?

Also, what in the world is going on with offensive line recruiting? Why isn't OSU offering more big guys up front since they cannot close the deal often enough with out-of-state O-linemen?

Dan Rubin and Dave Biddle tackle that and much more on the Monday 5ish.

Now that we know QB1, what do we expect? | JBook sizzles Frye Aug 16, 2024

Show notes

Now that we know Will Howard is Ohio State's starting quarterback, what do we expect from him? Also, how close is the battle for the No. 2 job between Devin Brown and Julian Sayin? Jonah Booker and Dave Biddle discuss that on today's show, plus:

* JBook is not holding back when it comes to his criticism of Justin Frye's recruiting acumen ... and he comes armed with facts.

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

Is today the day? Aug 15, 2024

Show notes

Is today the day that Ryan Day names Ohio State's starting quarterback? The Buckeyes' head coach will meet with the media following Thursday's practice around 11:30 a.m. ET. If he does name QB1, do we expect it will be Will Howard? If it is Howard, what are expectations for him this season from a statistical standpoint? Also, who will end up starting at right guard? What about punter?

Dave Biddle flies solo on today's show to discuss all of that and much more. That is coming your way on the Thursday 5ish.
