    • Cotton Bowl Rewind and Ohio State Transfer Portal News

      Cotton Bowl Rewind and Ohio State Transfer Portal News
      Jan 6 2026
      What began as a promising 2025 Ohio State football season and morphed into an apparent historic one came crashing to earth with back-to-back losses and a suddently completely overmatched offensive line. Julian Sayin spent his second straight game spending more time looking at guys trying to sack him than his options downfield. The Buckeyes started slowly, seemed to recover in the third quarter, and then faded again at the end, just when things were looking up.

      We break down a disappointing Cotton Bowl performance that added another layer to our lack of enthusiasm for New Year’s Eve games. We looked back at the key moments in Ohio State’s 24-14 loss to the Miami Hurricanes, checked in on our picks to click, and didn’t even bother to entertain who “won” in our game predictions.

      After our Cotton Bowl rewind, we looked at one former OSU offensive coordinator returning to the Big Ten — but not to Columbus — and Brian Hartline’s successor as the receivers coach for Ohio State. Where does the best school at producing NFL wide receivers turn? To the second-best school at producing wide receivers, naturally. But who is going to call the plays for those receivers? [thinking face emoji goes here]

      Finally, we looked at the insanity that is the transfer window. Seemingly everyone who didn’t start for Ohio State in 2025 is going in, which is weird when you consider how many starters are leaving, but who knows how it will all work out. There are some successful OSU transfer stories, and a bunch of not-so-good ones. But there aren’t just players leaving. Some are already arriving as well, and we discuss what is almost certainly an out-of-date list by the time you hear this podcast.

      NOTE: We are in our offseason schedule, so we will be back at least monthly, with the understanding that we may convene if we line up a guest, get some unexpectely big news, or just get a whole lot of noteworthy things to talk about. If not, we’ll see you next month.

    • Michigan's New Coach and Ohio State-Miami Preview

      Michigan's New Coach and Ohio State-Miami Preview
      Dec 30 2025
      We’re back from our one-week hiatus to get you ready for Ohio State against Miami in the Cotton Bowl Classic. The Buckeyes and Hurricanes figure to be one of the better matchups in the quarterfinals, and it should be an interesting game.

      Before we get into our preview, we discuss the latest Ohio State players to have their black helmet stripes removed. Practices between the end of the regular season and the bowls is always vital, and so it was for linebacker Eli Lee and tight end Brody Lennon, who both became “official” Buckeyes just two days before Christmas. That’s a pretty cool gift from Santa.

      Following our OSU camp news, we dive into Michigan’s hiring of former Utah coach Kyle Whittingham. As far as trying to erase the stench of the scandal-filled Jim Harbaugh and Sherrone Moore years, that school up north could hardly have found a better candidate to lead the football team in the right way. Whittingham’s teams are always hard-nosed, physical teams that run the ball and play sound defense. That said, will he be a good fit in the midwest? He hasn’t exactly moved around as a head coach, so it will be interesting to see how he adapts to Ann Arbor (and how the Wolverines adapt to him). Urban Meyer now has branches of his coaching tree on both sides of the greatest rivalry in college football.

      Finally, we go into a lengthy discussion of the Miami Hurricanes, who will present some challenges for Ohio State, especially when the Buckeyes have the ball. Indiana sacked Julian Sayin five times, and the Hurricanes’ strength is on the defensive line, so the slobs up front for Ohio State will have their work cut out for them.

      We talked briefly about Miami’s win at Texas A&M, broke down many of the key players Buckeye fans should watch out for, and discussed the critical matchups. We also provide our Ohio State player picks to click and tried our hand at predicting the final score of the Cotton Bowl.

      We’ll be back next week to see how we — and the Buckeyes — made out.

    • Buckeye Awards Season and the Coaching Carousel

      Buckeye Awards Season and the Coaching Carousel
      Dec 16 2025
      With a lull between Ohio State games, we look at all the various trophies and awards Buckeye players piled up with their performances throughout the 2025 season. We dive into the various All-Big Ten teams as well. Who was deserving? Who got snubbed? How the hell did Julian Sayin end up fourth on the Heisman list with numbers comparable to or better than the winner (even in the head-to-head meeting)? And furthermore, how did a receiver win the Biletnikoff Award without even winning the award for being the best receiver in his conference? That’s another snub for Jeremiah Smith (and an egregious one — I didn’t see Makai Lemon’s name in the top 10 in Heisman Trophy voting).

      Following our walk through the postseason awards, we turned our attention to the coaching carousel. Former Ohio State defensive coordinator Jim Knowles only worked at Penn State for one season and is now headed to Tennessee. It’s a bit ironic that his last outing before being hired by Tennessee was to give up 500+ yards to Greg Schiano’s Rutgers Scarlet Knights. After all, Schiano was supposed to become the Vols’ head coach until the fanbase pushed back hard against the choice.

      Mike Jacobs, who played for Ohio State on the offensive line in the late 1990s and early 2000s is the new head coach at Toledo. I can honestly say I don’t remember him as a Buckeye, but now he’s back in the Buckeye State and has a solid job in the MAC.

      Finally, we discussed the bizarre case of Sherrone Moore and the ongoing issues at Michigan. While Moore’s wife and kids never asked to be put in this position, here they are. It may not be fair to them, but it will probably be some time before this matter is put to rest. The University of Michigan is investigating its athletic department’s response to previous school scandals, and there doesn’t seem to be a way for Warde Manuel to keep his job (nor should there be). We discuss the matter without getting into the salacious details or diving into reports and speculation, and perhaps the best plan forward for Ohio State’s rival is to cut all ties with the Jim Harbaugh era and start fresh.

      We’re taking next week off, but we’ll be back on Dec. 30 to preview Ohio State’s next opponent in the College Football Playoff. We’ll be watching the Miami-Texas A&M game with great interest.

      0:20 - Some Buckeyes won some awards, but some of those Buckeyes didn’t win some of the awards that they should have. Also, some Buckeyes may have been honored in ways that didn’t quite make sense.

      20:26 - Knowles moves on to Rocky Top and Mike Jacobs returns home to northwest Ohio.

      28:05 - The Sherrone Moore saga is odd and fascinating and sad. Michigan needs a reset.
