Jeremiah Smith said what about Legend Bey? That's he's going to win the Heisman Trophy some day? Hey, game knows game and we're here for it. Speaking of Smith, he told reporters Wednesday evening that Ohio State will have a "whole different offense" this season with Arthur Smith as coordinator. What specifically can we expect from the Arthur Smith impact? Jonah Booker and Dave Biddle delve into that and much more on the Friday 5ish. (1:45) - Introduction (2:30) - Legend Bey hype bullet train (12:07) - How good will OSU's DBs be? (14:39) - Brock Boyd expectations (20:14) - Battle to be QB2 (30:15) - Is there a mess in Texas?

In this episode of the Buckeye Weekly Podcast, hosts Tom Orr and Tony Gerdeman discuss the Ohio State defensive tackle position while comparing it to the past two years when the Buckeyes had first- and second-round draft picks on the interior. Does Ohio State have that this year? Does the defense NEED stars at defensive tackle in order to be one of the best defenses in college football? If the Buckeyes are going to contend for a title, do they have what it takes up front? All of these questions are discussed and more.

In this special bonus episode, you'll get a chance to hear directly from Ohio State captain, wide receiver, and Block O jersey recipient Brandon Inniss about why that last honor gave him a momentary pause, why he thinks new offensive coordinator Arthur Smith has a plan to get him the ball, how QB Julian Sayin has taken over the offense, and why true freshmen wide receivers Chris Henry, Jr. and Brock Boyd are poised for big things this fall.

USC Trojans eye a breakthrough 10-win regular season—can Lincoln Riley and quarterback Jaydn Maieva finally deliver playoff contention? Brian Smith and Marc Kulkin break down USC's dynamic offense, spotlighting the high-powered one-two punch of Waymon Jordan and King Miller at running back, plus the rise of true freshman tight end Mark Bowman. They analyze the Trojans' revamped, physically imposing offensive line and evaluate new faces like Tanook Hines and Terrell Anderson in a reloaded wide receiver corps. On defense, edge rushers Kameryn Crawford and Luke Wafle, alongside linebacker Desman Stephens, must become difference-makers to solve USC's road woes and stand tall against Big Ten rivals. With tests looming against Oregon, Washington, Penn State, and Ohio State, can USC win key games at the Coliseum and shake its struggles away from home? Stay tuned for an expert preview of what could be the Trojans' most pivotal season yet. Support us by supporting our sponsors!

With every football season comes renewed opportunity. Just ask Jordan Hall.The Class of 2027 Princeton (Ohio) running back committed to Miami (Ohio) dominated a season-opening win over Cincinnati Moeller. Penn State offered the following day. Ohio State invited him to visit for the season opener against Ball State.If only we had video from that Princeton-Moeller tussle to see what all the fuss is about. Oh, wait ... we do. In fact, both Garrick Hodge and Mark Porter were there. Stick around until the end of the show for the festivities. So we have that for you today.We also get into Garrick's 'State of Ohio State Recruiting' series that will make you a far more informed 'Nutter. Plus, our guys let you know which games and prospects they will see this weekend.

Things Discussed: Online Q&A Tomorrow hosted by U-M Club of Fairfield. Detroit Kickoff Dinner on Monday at Ford's Garage, and the following day I'm in D.C. Pre-show, Sam & Ira were talking NFL doing away with Pro Bowl. Seth suggests they have college alumni games. Certainly there are some NFL players from Ohio State who want to beat Michigan at something once in their lives? Pick different rivalries every year. Best Fred Jacksonism ever: Anton Campbell is Gayle Sayers. Sorting the camp facts from camp lies. Tariq Boney is believable because he's probably getting to the quarterback, could be used in an Uche role this year, but isn't going to be on the field in a run situation. Use what you know and how players develop. Lea'ea has gotten bigger, but can he get so much bigger to be one of the three, or isn't it more likely he's just going to be who he is and what you're hearing about Kanka and Palepale is they're not impact guys right now, and Moten etc. are not playable yet? Linebacker is where this gets scary, because once you start talking about Max Alford: I know what Max Alford looks like. Basketball trip to Lithuania takeaways: Quinn Costello is a movement shooter. Taller Foster Loyer. Brandon McCoy is going to be a problem on both ends of the court. Think his shot is busted; his free throws are not that close. Craig: teach him some midrange. Center: Can't play without Thiam. Estrella looks like a four, Moller is not ready this year. New rules to prevent pros from coming back: schools will punish coaches and schools, hope to muddle things for inevitable lawsuits. Big Ten hasn't promulgated a basketball rule, football rule means no Ernest Hausmann though, because (before they made the rule) his name was in the Draft. Roddy would be ineligible if they extend this to basketball because he played in summer league, which is a pro league. NCAA won some recent cases.

Guest host Bobby Bones and The Athletic's CFB Insider Stewart Mandel discuss the mushrooming controversy of former NFL players returning to college football and the long-term impact on the NCAA's viability to enforce its rules, if Bill Belichick can improve in his 4-8 first year record at North Carolina, how the success of Curt Cignetti at Indiana has impacted how schools search for and hire head coaches, the outlook for Ohio State, Oregon, Texas, and debates which schools have the best uniforms and helmets.  (1:35)  Bobby reveals his top 5 list of NFL villains that's sure to raise the ire of Eagles and Chiefs fans.  (26:55) Learn more about your ad choices.

Les Wexner stepped down as chairman of the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center Board amid renewed scrutiny surrounding his decades-old relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, although he did not completely sever his ties with the institution. Wexner remained on the board as chair emeritus, while Robert Schottenstein was positioned to take over as chairman. The change came after months of mounting pressure on Ohio State over Wexner's continued prominence, including protests and calls to remove his name from university buildings as newly released Epstein records and congressional scrutiny again focused attention on their relationship. Wexner has consistently denied knowing about or participating in Epstein's crimes and has said he cut Epstein out of his life after learning he had deceived him. Still, the optics remained difficult for Ohio State, particularly because Wexner had not attended a board meeting since May 2025 and his name remained deeply embedded throughout the medical center and university.At the same time, New York health officials said they were reviewing disturbing allegations involving physicians who had relationships with Epstein, adding another layer of scrutiny to the professional networks that surrounded him. The New York State Department of Health described allegations raised in recent reporting as “deeply troubling” and said they warranted examination, though a review is not itself proof that any doctor committed misconduct. Released records have documented Epstein's relationships with multiple physicians and researchers, including doctors affiliated with Weill Cornell Medicine, where correspondence and social contacts with Epstein extended well beyond purely medical matters. The development has intensified questions about how Epstein maintained access to prestigious medical, scientific and academic circles even after his 2008 conviction, and whether institutions adequately examined those relationships at the time. Taken together with Wexner's retreat from a prominent Ohio State leadership position, the developments showed how the continuing release and examination of Epstein-related material was producing consequences far beyond the criminal cases against Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, forcing universities, medical institutions and regulators to revisit relationships that had gone largely unchallenged for years.to contact me;bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Les Wexner stepping down as chair of Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center Board • Ohio Capital JournalDoctors Linked To Jeffrey Epstein Being Investigated By New York Department of Health

Ohio State gains momentum over Texas as critical injury concerns emerge for the Longhorns. With left tackle Trevor Goosby's knee bruise casting doubt on Texas's offensive line, questions arise about their ability to protect against Ohio State's talented pass rush. Arch Manning faces a formidable Buckeye defense, while Colin Simmons looks to exploit any pass protection vulnerability. Will depth and physicality tip the balance for Ryan Day's squad, or can Hollywood Smothers and Raleek Brown ignite Texas's ground game? LSU prepares to host Clemson in a high-stakes showdown marked by coaching scrutiny and roster uncertainty. Can Dabo Swinney's loyalty to Christopher Vizzina at quarterback translate to early success in Death Valley, or will LSU's talented true freshmen at defensive tackle become a liability? Special teams, injury rumors surrounding key players, and the impact of the SEC and Big Ten's stance on NFL-to-college transfers all add intrigue to these prime matchups.

One of the most consistent things we've heard this preseason about new Ohio State offensive coordinator Arthur Smith is that he does a great job taking simple concepts and building on them to create confusion for opposing defenses. One great example that Buckeyes fans will likely see on the field this fall is Duo, and related concepts that build off it it, like Windback.In this episode of the Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning podcast, Michael Pettit, one of the Scheme Insiders at BuckeyeInsiders.com, joins host Tom Orr to break down how those plays fit together, and why they can be so effective in tandem.Today's episode is presented by Jeff Ruby's Columbus, proudly offering nationally-acclaimed U.S.D.A.
