Ohio State has an interesting plan for veteran defensive players Malik Hartford and C.J. Hicks. They are going to try and redshirt both of them, but they will both be ready to play if needed. We think this is a very wise move and it's one of the main topics on today's show. Also discussed is why so much attention is paid to the transfer portal when it really doesn't matter to a program like Ohio State. We explain what we mean. And the Bucknuts Gang looks ahead to Saturday's OSU at Illinois game and how much of a test this will be for the Buckeyes. That and more is coming your way on the Wednesday 5ish.
