There are roughly 21 players on the Ohio State roster who can catch or carry the football this year, not including the quarterbacks. Coming up with a list of 20 of them is not difficult. Only two of those players were left off of this list. The first — redshirt freshman receiver Kamryn Babb — isn’t listed because he is returning from a torn ACL. Expect him to…
Back in early December of 2017, Marcus Crowley committed to the University of Miami. As a Jacksonville product from Trinity Christian Academy, it was no surprise that Miami was a lure.

It’s not like Marcus Crowley was an unknown quantity. He was a backup running back on the varsity team as a freshman and sophomore at Trinity Christian Academy in Jacksonville, Florida. Playing that early is no small feat at a place that produces college football players every single year like Trinity Christian does. That lineage also includes…
Running back Marcus Crowley sent in his Letter of Intent to Ohio State on Wednesday, officially making him a member of the Buckeyes’ 2019 recruiting class. Here’s a look at what he could mean for the future of the program…
Urban Meyer will officially announce his retirement as Ohio State football coach on Tuesday. The move ends one of the greatest coaching tenures in college football history, but the Buckeye program will continue.
