Are we not talking enough about Arthur Smith's impact? | Who'll blink first: Petitti or Sankey?
6d ago00:30:24Tap to summarizeAre we not talking enough about the impact first-year offensive coordinator Arthur Smith is going to have at Ohio State this year? That is the main topic of conversation on today's show with Jonah Booker and Dave Biddle. Also on the docket: * Who will blink first in the "CFP standoff" between Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti and SEC commish Greg Sankey? Petitti wants a 24-team field. And if he doesn't get it, he will elect to keep the CFP at 12 teams. A 16-team CFP is off the table as far as the Big Ten is concerned. It's either 24 or 12. * What do we expect from Payton Pierce this season as he takes over as the Buckeyes' starting middle linebacker? How do we feel about the LB room overall? * We get JBook's prediction of who will finish second and third on Ohio State's team in receptions and receiving yards this season. All of that and more is coming your way on the Friday 5ish.

Transcribe →In praise of Ohio (recruiting) | Who's got next? | Latest trail film
1w ago00:41:49Tap to summarizeMark Porter has seen more Ohio prospects than anyone this offseason. It's true. Has it been easy? If you like being away from your family, fast food and motels ... sure. It's certainly been productive. Nobody has the knowledge our guy does. Today's show not only has video from his latest stop but also praise and insight on Tim Hinton, the Ohio State assistant coach out on the road almost as much as Mark. We also pick up where we left off on the recent commitment of Wyatt Smith and soak up the buzz on coveted defensive lineman Marcus Fakatou. Spend 5ish with us this a.m., 'Nutters!

1w ago00:41:27Tap to summarizeWe are happy to welcome in longtime Ohio State beat writer Doug Lesmerises to today's show. Doug and Dave Biddle will discuss the following: * Does the NCAA have any teeth left? We're about to find out due to this Brendan Sorsby situation. How is there any gray area here when discussing someone who bet on his own team? * Ranking the former Ohio State wide receivers who are currently in the NFL. * Speaking of OSU WRs, presuming Brandon Inniss is second on the squad in receptions and yards this year, who will be third in both categories? Could it be a true freshman? Perhaps a senior who transferred in? * How much longer does Doug think Ryan Day will be at Ohio State? (We hope it's a long time.) That and much more is coming your way on the Wednesday 5ish.
