One can argue that no Ohio State position group is dealing with more 'new' in 2025 than its offensive line. OSU must find a way to replace four Day 1 starters from its 2024 lineup and the man in charge of doing that is new offensive line coach Tyler Bowen. Plus, there are three new freshmen and two new transfers who are both expected to push for starting roles. On this episode of Buckeye Talk, Stephen Means, Stefan Krajisnik and Andrew Gillis preview the offensive line, looking at all the names, goals for the spring and the group's ceiling. Plus, a conversation about a former five-star and whether we think this group will be better, the same or worse than it was in 2024. Thanks for listening to Buckeye Talk.

Keenan Bailey might have his deepest group since becoming Ohio State's tight end coach. He returns three of the top four players in snaps from last season, with the only departure being wide receiver-turned-tight end Gee Scott Jr. He's been replaced by what might be the most talented player OSU's seen at the position in some time thanks to adding Purdue transfer Max Klare. This group has a handful of players coming into a spring where it can accomplish quite a lot. Tight ends haven't often been the headliners of the offense, doing much of the dirty work. But this spring is a chance to become more than just that, even if the talent around them is still high.
