In this episode of the Buckeye Weekly Podcast, Tony Gerdeman and Tom Orr discuss Ohio State’s football commits over the past week. They look at the loaded 2021 Ohio class as well. Listener questions are also involved, including a discussion about the most rewatchable games of the Jim Tressel era. All of this and much, much more.
