Ohio State Coaches Still Have Plans for Demario McCall
Demario McCall has provided glimpses. Ninety yards of total offense and a pair of scores in his first collegiate game back in 2016. Eighty-five yards rushing in his third career game. He didn’t play a lot as a true freshman, but when he was on the field, he was effective. McCall rushed for 73 yards against Nebraska, then posted 101 all-purpose yards the following week at Maryland.
Ohio State Freshman Receivers ‘Better Than Expected’
Things went so well for Ohio State on the recruiting trail at receiver this past year that there are rumors they even had to tell one 5-star pass catcher who wanted to come aboard that the ship was full. Of the seven highest-rated signees for the Buckeyes in their 2020 recruiting class, four of them were receivers. Julian Fleming, the 5-star receiver who played less than…
Buckeyes Choosing From Experienced DBs in Search for New Starters
Ohio State has major question marks surrounding its secondary this season. As the Buckeyes enter spring ball, they now have to figure out how to maintain the level of excellence that the defensive backs have had over the years, but with new faces and new numbers out on the field instead.

What Made Cade Stover, Cormontae Hamilton Position Movers?
Late last season, freshman linebacker Cade Stover moved to defensive end. It was written about, in case you missed it. This winter, Stover — who played in four games last year and redshirted — was moved from the defensive line to tight end.

Who Will Call Plays on Defense for the Buckeyes This Year?
“Who’s calling plays?” There may be no more time-honored tradition around the Ohio State football program than asking who’s calling the plays. Why? Because if people don’t know who’s calling plays, they won’t know who to blame when something goes wrong. Seemingly, that has been one reason why it has been difficult at times in having Buckeye coaches tell us…

Recruiting Pitches at Ohio State are Iron-Clad
The ability to recruit the nation’s best players obviously leads to a more productive program in any sport and is the lifeblood of every collegiate sport. The math is simple — the more talent you have, the better your team will be. For the players, however, there are also positives. While some players might see a roster full…
No Sense In Rushing a Recruit in the Age of the Portal
The early December signing period was not without its drama for Ohio State. With secondary coach Jeff Hafley leaving, that left the Buckeyes without a guy in charge of the defensive backs. More timely, however, it left OSU’s defensive back recruits with plenty of questions. For Lejond Cavazos, Lathan Ransom, and Ryan Watts, they were given answers that proved…
Recruiting Stars Gone, Julian Fleming Looking to Earn a Spot
Ohio State freshman receiver Julian Fleming was the nation’s top receiver prospect by every recruiting service in the 2020 recruiting cycle. In fact, ESPN even had him as their top prospect overall. Any time a player is the tops at his position, the expectations are raised in a commensurate manner. While there are no “sure things,” signing the nation’s top wide receiver would seem…
