Ohio State football camp begins in three days. In fact, 72 hours from now, the first practice will have been over for nearly three hours. But we’ve still got some time to kill. For me, I’ve still got time to write these, and for you, you’ve still got time to read them. Soon, however, we won’t have time. Our hours will be consumed…
As Ohio State fans have learned over the last few years, success can bring almost as much coach and player turnover as failure does. The 2017 season brings more of the same for both in the linebackers room. Luke Fickell took his talents south as he became the head coach at the University of Cincinnati and Raekwon…
Looking forward is the best. It’s fun, it brings about great conversations, and it’s the only way to fly. We are already looking forward to so much this Buckeye football season, but there is still plenty more to come. We haven’t even gotten to the part about Kenny Guiton coming in as a mid-season hire to eventually save…
As I do every Wednesday night, I had the privilege of sitting down with Mark Rogers and discussing the Ohio State Buckeyes. In this episode, we discussed the drama surrounding J.T. Barrett not being selected as a B1G Media Days representative, the 2017 linebackers, and finally we went over my projected stats for the offense.
We are roughly two weeks away from Ohio State football camp opening, if you can believe it. The light at the end of the tunnel is getting brighter by the day, and you can almost make out the desolate Bloomington farmscape taking shape. Yes, that is a Denny’s with a silo. And no, they don’t have pull tabs, that…
The Maxwell Football Club today announced its watch lists for the 81st annual Maxwell Award and the 23rd annual Chuck Bednarik Award, and multiple Ohio State Buckeyes are on the radar for the organization’s respective player of the year and defensive player of the year awards. A pair of fifth-year seniors – quarterback J.T. Barrett and defensive end Tyquan Lewis…
This season the Ohio State Buckeyes will feature a Mike linebacker who used to be a Sam linebacker, a Sam linebacker who used to be a Will linebacker, and a Will linebacker who used to be a Sam linebacker. No, this isn’t three cases of mistaken identity, it’s the Ohio State linebackers in a nutshell. The first start of…
You can’t really take a walk down the internet without running into an NFL mock draft these days. And you almost can’t be a Buckeye without eventually having your name mentioned inside one of those drafts. Even though we’ve just hit our second week of summer, the mock draft season is year round. With that…
Buckeye Nation was formally introduced to linebacker Jerome Baker on September 17 of last year when Ohio State took on the Sooners in Norman, Oklahoma. On a University television show the previous week, OU backup quarterback Austin Kendall proclaimed that starting quarterback Baker Mayfield would “light up”…
Ohio State went into the spring having to replace just one linebacker from last season, but that one was a big one. Middle linebacker Raekwon McMillan is on his way to the NFL and now Chris Worley has stepped in for him. That was just one story of the spring, which featured new positions, injuries, and a good amount of depth.
