The last time Ohio State returned a punt for a touchdown was last November against Michigan. Freshman wide receiver Chris Olave blocked a Will Hart punt and it ended up in the arms of freshman cornerback Sevyn Banks, who ran it in the rest of the way for a touchdown. It’s a great way to return punts, but it doesn’t happen nearly often enough to be…
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.
The No. 2 player on this list scored a 47-yard touchdown on the very first touch of his college career and is now just 48 receptions away from breaking David Boston’s career receptions record at Ohio State. Following an official visit to Alabama in January of 2015, KJ Hill decommitted from his home-state Arkansas Razorbacks. He eventually signed with Ohio State…

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.
It’s a common theme for college football fans to be told they are seeing things through “such and such” colored glasses. Sometimes, it is fans of a team that hasn’t been relevant in over 20 years thinking they are National Title contenders. Other times, it is a fan from {insert literally any southern team here} thinking they would be the best team in any other…
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.
As coaches move through their respective careers, most of them continue to keep in touch with their mentors because they are an invaluable resource. Those mentors have generally gone through everything that the younger coach is about to have to deal with. Ryan Day has mentors he can still call up whenever the need arises.
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…
The Ohio State receiver room this year features four seniors, one junior, two sophomores, one redshirt freshman, and two true freshmen. KJ Hill is one of those seniors and the leader of a fairly deep group. Fellow seniors Austin Mack and Binjimen Victor are expected to join Hill in the OSU starting lineup, and the fourth senior — CJ Saunders — will be one…
The NFL will release the full list of players who have been allowed to declare early for the 2019 Draft, but we already know which Buckeyes have made the move. In all, six players — defensive end Nick Bosa, defensive tackle Dre’Mont Jones, cornerback Kendall Sheffield, quarterback Dwayne Haskins, running back Mike Weber, and center…
