That is the main topic of conversation on today's show with Jonah Booker and Dave Biddle, but many other OSU football topics are broached, including the Buckeyes wearing a jersey patch this season.

After months (years?) of speculation, 5-star running back David Gabriel Georges will announce his decision today. Most insiders feel that Tennessee will be his choice, but could DGG pull a surprise announcement and select Ohio State?Also, The Athletic did its yearly college football quarterback rankings, and OSU's Julian Sayin came in at No. 5. Does that sound about right? Who were the four QBs ranked ahead of him?

On The Money!

Well, that didn't take long. An Ohio judge gave an injunction to 15 Division I college basketball players on Thursday who are challenging the new "5-to-play-5 rule" in college athletics.

On today's show, Jonah Booker and Dave Biddle discuss that development, plus:* Who is the best defensive tackle on this year's Ohio State team?* Who will replace Caleb Downs this year for the Buckeyes?* What are the vibes regarding 5-star running back recruit David Gabriel Georges?That and much more is coming your way on the Friday 5ish.

Ohio State's 2027 recruiting class is cleared for takeoff. The latest commitment for the Buckeyes came in the form of 5-star wide receiver Jett Harrison on Friday.

Is a "Big 5" emerging in terms of the college football teams that spend the most on NIL? It sure looks like it. And yes, Ohio State is one of the five. Who are the others? And where is this information coming from?That is the main topic of discussion on the Wednesday 5ish with Dave Biddle and Patrick Murphy, who also discuss Ohio State's recruiting heater and more.

Is playing an extremely tough regular-season schedule a good idea in the era of a 12-team College Football Playoff, or is it akin to shooting yourself in the foot? Well, we are about to find out this year given Ohio State's brutal slate that includes three teams widely ranked within the top-5 nationally (Texas, Indiana, Oregon), plus three other squads that are expected to be ranked (USC, Michigan, Iowa). The season will serve as a referendum of sorts on tough schedules, at least from the Buckeyes' point of view.Also, Dave Biddle and Dan Rubin react to Phil Steele's Big Ten standings predictions, and talk about the recruiting hot streak the Buckeyes are on.That and much more is coming your way on the Monday 5ish.

Redshirts and sixth-year seniors will no longer be a thing in college sports as the Division I Council voted unanimously to pass the "5-to-play-5" rule on Tuesday, meaning athletes will have five years to play five seasons. The clock begins when they enroll as a freshman or when they turn 19, whichever comes first.How might this impact Ohio State? And what do we think about the rule overall? Dave Biddle and Steve Helwagen delve into that and much more on the Wednesday 5ish.

If you could add any former Ohio State player to the 2026 roster, who would it be? You can only choose one.That is one of the topics of today's show with Dave Biddle and Dan Rubin. Also, why is no one talking about the fact that Oregon is replacing both coordinators this year? Well, we're going to talk about it.That and much more is coming your way on the Monday 5ish.

For a while, it seemed as if the long-standing relationship between 2027 quarterback Brady Edmunds and Ohio State was headed for a breakup. Edmonds has been verbally committed to Ohio State for over a year-and-a-half (Dec. 2, 2024, to be exact). However, when the Buckeyes started looking at other QBs in the 2027 class, and when Edmunds started considering other programs like UCLA, it appeared as though the relationship has soured.However, Edmunds is currently on his official visit to Ohio State, and has been in town since Tuesday. And from talking to him, everything is going extremely well thus far.Will Edmunds eventually be a Buckeye? That is one of the questions Jonah Booker and Dave Biddle will answer on the Friday 5ish.

JBook and Dave will each end up with one quarterback, two running backs, three wide receivers and one tight end.Also, continuing a topic from The Front Row message board from yesterday, what was the best move of the offseason for the Buckeyes? And this includes players landed via the transfer portal, recruits in the 2026 class, coaching hires and player retention.Also, go USA in the World Cup!That and more is coming your way on the Friday 5ish.

Welcome to June, 'Nutters!There's plenty to discuss and we are fortunate to have Steve Helwagen here to wax poetic as Dave Biddle vacations, sunning himself in a discreet Caribbean locale.No beach time for the Buckeyes, however. We dive deep on a few overarching topics:* Was there a Michigan win hangover last season?* Is Ohio State's vaunted '26 schedule actually a bit overrated?* Julian Sayin - he good?Then it's quality basketball chatter - yes, basketball - taking stock of where the program sits as practice begins later today.Spent 5ish with us this a.m., 'Nutters!

The categories are: * Rushing yards. * Receptions. * Receiving yards. * Total touchdowns. * Sacks. * Tackles-for-loss. * Tackles. * Interceptions. Again, we're not just picking who will finish first on the Buckeyes in these categories. We're going 1-2-3-4 in all of them. That is coming your way on the Friday 5ish.

(Five years for athletes to play five seasons.) * Who will be second on the Buckeyes in receiving yards and receptions this season?

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.

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?

The College Football Playoff expanding from 12 teams seems inevitable. When the CFP does expand, what's the right amount of teams? Fourteen? What about 16?

The media chatted with Ohio State head coach Ryan Day via Zoom Friday afternoon from his home state of New Hampshire and Bucknuts was curious about the status of all of the players who missed all or part of spring ball. Are they are expected to be fully cleared for the start of summer conditioning in two weeks? Day gave a resounding yes, which was obviously music to our ears. Also, Dan Rubin's draft dream came true when his Dallas Cowboys traded up to land Caleb Downs with the No. 11 pick. Some NFL teams might eventually look very foolish for passing on Downs, but Dan is extremely pleased that they did. Dan and Dave Biddle also take a look at the rest of the draft from OSU's perspective (Buckeyes led everyone with 11 picks), take a gander at next year's draft class for the Buckeyes (could JJ go No. 1 overall?) and much more.
