VISIT TheBuckeyeCast.com https://thebuckeyecast.com/ Ohio State's tight end room is undergoing a major reset in 2026 — and Arthur Smith's arrival as offensive coordinator makes this position more important than ever. In this episode, we break down projected snap counts, targets, and roles for Ohio State's tight ends, including Nate Roberts, Hunter Welcing, Mason Williams, and Bennett Christian. We explain how Smith's pro-style offense will use multiple-tight-end personnel, why tight end production may rise without eye-popping stats, and how this impacts wide receiver rotations and overall offensive structure. Topics covered: Projected snap counts and target share for each Ohio State tight end How Arthur Smith historically uses tight ends in NFL-style offenses Why Nate Roberts has breakout potential How Welcing and Williams fit as reliable, high-snap contributors Why tight ends will matter more in structure than box scores If you want to understand how Ohio State's offense will evolve in 2026 — especially in the run game, play-action, and red zone — this tight end breakdown is essential viewing.

VISIT TheBuckeyeCast.com https://thebuckeyecast.com/ Ohio State's offensive line is the most debated unit of the 2026 Buckeyes roster, and Ryan Day made a bold decision: no high-priced transfer portal starters. In this episode of The Daily Buckeye Blitz, we break down the full Ohio State offensive line roster reset, including snap-count context, returning starters, depth chart battles, and why the Buckeyes chose development and continuity over portal spending after last season's results. We cover: Why Ohio State passed on elite transfer portal offensive linemen Ryan Day's comments on experience, continuity, and OL development What went wrong late in 2025 and why the staff believes it's fixable The right guard battle and why it's the biggest concern Projected 2026 offensive line depth chart and flexibility How this decision impacts Arthur Smith's offense and the run game Ohio State returns four veteran starters, including Carson Hinzman and Luke Montgomery, and is betting that another offseason together will fix the breakdowns that showed up in the Big Ten Championship and College Football Playoff. Is this smart roster management — or a gamble that could define the season?

The Ohio State Buckeyes went into the portal to add a pair of talented wide receivers, as well as two top tight ends, but didn't bring in any offensive linemen. Ross Fulton, the Xs and Os analyst for BuckeyeHuddle.com, joins host Tom Orr to discuss what those additions - and lack of additions - tell him about what to expect from the Ohio State offense under the Buckeyes' new offensive coordinator Arthur Smith.

Ohio State's full schedule was released on Tuesday, complete with specific dates for each game. We already knew the teams the Buckeyes would play in 2026, so we were fully aware this was going to be a daunting slate. How daunting? Three teams that will begin the season likely ranked within the top-5 (at Indiana, at Texas, Oregon), two more that will be ranked within the top-15 (at USC, Michigan) and two more that will be ranked in the top-25 (at Iowa, Illinois). Whew, that's a doozy. However, Buckeye fans should still be confident about their team's chances in the 2026 season, and Dave Biddle and Matt Baxendell explain why on today's show. We also get Steeler-fan-Bax's take on new OSU offensive coordinator Arthur Smith (we know Biddle likes the hire) and more. That is coming your way on the Wednesday 5ish.

The show opens with Taylor breaking down why it is just him on the show as Will is stuck without power and phone service. Josh joins Taylor to breakdown what exactly made Winter Storm Fern so dangerous and catastrophic.

Once the storms pass, it’s time to talk ball. The boys react to the CFP National Championship and give their biggest takeaways from the title game, including what it means for the future of the power balance in college football. They debate whether Indiana’s run is a flash in the pan or a sign of real staying power, and question if Miami is headed for a tougher road than expected next season. To wrap it up, the crew looks ahead at some of the sport’s biggest brands and their outlooks moving forward. Michigan and Alabama both get the microscope as the boys break down expectations, pressure, and what success looks like next year. As well as what it will look like for Ohio State after they hired Arthur Smith and what that move could mean for the Buckeyes offensively. If you are in need of an escape from everything, look no further than here. Come join the boys for a fun hang and fun listen. Please stay safe out there and as always, big hugs tiny kisses.
