The Buckeyes were back on the practice field on Thursday morning at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center. Unlike Tuesday, reporters were not allowed in to watch any of the action, but we did get to talk to the players and coaches from the defensive line and wide receiver units after it was over. Tony Gerdeman and Tom Orr…
COLUMBUS — Ohio State held its second football practice of spring camp Thursday morning. Afterward, several members of the defensive line and receiving corps spoke with reporters, as did position coaches Larry Johnson and Zach Smith. There were plenty of topics discussed, including Nick Bosa’s expectations for 2018, Jashon Cornell’s move to defensive end, what it will take for younger receivers to see the field, and plenty, plenty more.
Ohio State kicked off spring practice on Tuesday and the Buckeyes were without a handful of key players due to injury, including four players who started last season. Save for freshman quarterback Matthew Baldwin, none of the injuries are expected to impact the 2018 season. Baldwin’s injury came at the end of his…
Along with the news of the commitment and signing of 5-star offensive tackle Nicholas Petit-Frere on signing day earlier in the month, the news came out that Ohio State defensive coordinator Greg Schiano would be staying at Ohio State. It had begun to seem like a formality that Schiano would be leaving the Buckeyes…
The Buckeyes will take the field with a handful of H-backs in 2018, which sparked some speculation that perhaps K.J. Hill would move outside. As of last week, however, Hill says that he will remain at H-back in 2018, once again pairing with Parris Campbell for a tremendous duo. They will be joined this coming season…
Thanks to some “bonus coverage” from the Ohio State sports information department, the media was able to speak with a number of Buckeyes who chose to return to OSU rather than enter the NFL Draft. We also spoke to running back J.K. Dobbins and safety Jordan Fuller. Some of what everyone had to say can be seen in the videos below.
Today is the final day for college football’s underclassmen to declare for the NFL, and as long as nothing changes, the same group of Buckeye receivers who practiced during bowl prep will also be practicing during spring camp. In other words, the entire band is back together and they’re currently in the studio working on a new album for this fall.
As an Ohio State fan, the 2017 season was rough. The quarterback position was a constantly-negative situation where one side felt very strong about J.T. Barrett’s abilities as a leader and the other side felt very strongly about his lack of abilities throwing the ball. It was a constant debate where neither side was going to be dissuaded…
Every fall, Urban Meyer and his assistant coaches sit with high school football players and their families and explain the benefits of playing their college ball at Ohio State. The chance to be a part of the greatest rivalry in sports and play for championships is part of it. They sell the value of an OSU degree, the “Real Life Wednesdays” program…
After Tuesday night’s practice, Urban Meyer and assistants Kevin Wilson and Larry Johnson met with the media, as did a number of Buckeyes, including quarterback J.T. Barrett and defensive ends Nick Bosa and Jalyn Holmes. Below are videos of much of what was said.
How do you describe a game that exists beyond the accepted bounds of known language? That’s always the problem with writing about a game like Ohio State’s 39-38 come-from-behind win over No. 2 Penn State on Saturday. If a picture is worth a thousand words, then there’s really no way to properly describe the entire scene of last night.
