Jonathon Cooper, CJ Saunders, Rashod Berry, Taron Vincent Ruled Out for FAU
Ohio State has implemented a new procedure regarding injuries. They will no longer talk about specific players and injuries, but every Friday they will release…
Ohio State DE Tyler Friday More Ready Than Ever For Saturdays
Fall camp for freshmen football players often ends up in an everlasting search for mental and physical reassurance. They listen to coaches, listen to teammates, and try to tell themselves that this is all completely normal. Such was the case for sophomore defensive end Tyler Friday a year ago. Friday came to Ohio State as one of the top defensive…
100 Ohio State Matchups To Watch In 2019: 80-61
Everybody loves college football. If somebody tells you they don’t love it, they’re wrong. We look forward to particular games and watching certain players. Each week we get to see something new. That is especially true if you think about the sheer number of individual matchups there are to watch this season. And that’s just the Ohio State games.
Fall Camp 2019 To Do List: DL Coach Larry Johnson
Fall camp got underway for the Buckeyes this past Friday and every single Ohio State position coach has a mental list of things that they need to get done. In fact, they may actually have a physical list as well. Speculating as to what might be on each assistant coach’s list is always a fun exercise, and there are no shortages of items that will need to be addressed.
Jonathon Cooper Sees a Starter In Nicholas Petit-Frere
Ohio State needs to find four new starters on the offensive line this season, and of the likely new starters, nobody has less experience than redshirt freshman tackle Nicholas Petit-Frere. Petit-Frere was a 5-star signee in the 2018 class as a top 10 prospect and came to Columbus with very high expectations. Those expectations weren’t to the point…
Ohio State Football Notebook: ‘He takes criticism better than he used to’
Justin Fields is the highest-ranked quarterback recruit at Ohio State since Terrelle Pryor in 2008. As such, he carries with him immense expectations. To “make matters worse,” Dwayne Haskins had the greatest season for a quarterback in Ohio State history last year, which means if Fields falls short of Haskins in any area this season, there will be critics.
Will Ryan Day Be Changing Buckeyes’ Approach to Michigan Game?
At Ohio State, preparation for the Michigan game has become as much a part of the football program as the buckeye leaf stickers applied to the players’ helmets. Workouts and practices both have periods named after the team up north. The word “Michigan” is not permitted to be spoken, and it’s best not to show up to the football facilities decked out in blue.
Ohio State Freshman DE Zach Harrison Continuing to Grow (Figuratively)
Aside from the transfer of quarterback Justin Fields, freshman defensive end Zach Harrison was Ohio State head coach Ryan Day’s prize recruit in the 2019 signing class. Harrison was a 5-star prospect from Central Ohio who was torn between the Buckeyes, Michigan, and Penn State. Eventually, he signed with Ohio State, and the rest is history.
Ohio State Football Notebook: ‘BB will have to get his own gig’
Just so you’re aware, Ryan Day is not Urban Meyer. Now that you know that, we can begin discussing how the two are different. Just don’t expect Day to be participating in that conversation. He’s too busy being Ryan Day. “I think the easy thing to do is to ask how are you different than Urban Meyer, and that’s not something I really like to answer because…
No More Bosas No Problem for Buckeyes?
For the first time since Urban Meyer’s first season at Ohio State in 2012, there isn’t a Bosa listed on the Buckeyes’ official football roster. The OSU defense obviously got accustomed to the absence a year early, of course, following Nick Bosa’s season-ending injury last year in the third game of the season. The Buckeyes never really recovered from the loss.
WATCH: Ryan Day, Buckeye Players At Big Ten Media Days
The 2019 Big Ten football season is now – at least unofficially – underway. The conference opened its annual Media Days on Thursday in Chicago, marking the start of preseason schedule of events.
