Can Ohio State hang on to all of the Class of 2026 prospects currently committed? Is Matt Patricia the most praised man in football?

When Ohio State hosted Ja'Dyn Williams for the Ohio game 10 days ago, many felt the Indiana commitment would receive the coveted Ohio State offer shortly thereafter. Maybe it depends on your definition of 'shortly thereafter' but that offer came yesterday. Our Garrick Hodge had the story you can read HERE. Now what? Will Williams flip? Where would he be utilized as a Buckeye? There's no better source on this than Mark Porter and The Grand Poobah hogs the spotlight all show long ... thankfully. We also dive deep on new commitment Angelo Smith. Accepted because of his older brother (see: Jeremiah)?  No. Angelo Smith earned his spot. We have the video to prove it.

With the season less than a month away, one might think our focus has gone totally away from recruiting. Wrong! We always have recruiting on a front burner here and today is no exception. Bill Kurelic and Mark Porter are here to touch on the following topics: * Three top 60 prospects remain uncommitted in the Class of 2026's Top247. Ohio State is theoretically in the mix for all three. We dive deep on Bralan Womack, Darius Gray and Savion Hiter with their commitments scheduled for later this month. * Ohio State's season opener against visiting Texas is a prime time for the Buckeyes to entertain recruits. We peek at the burgeoning guest list while acknowledging some challenges in building attendance. * There is 300-plus pound prospect from Texas the Buckeyes have offered that boasts Ohio ties. He also lines up as Wildcat quarterback at times. We have video prove it. Meet Jalen Brewster. Spend 5ish with us this a.m., 'Nutters!

If you ever wanted to experience a show symbolic of the new NIL era, you've come to the right place. Show prep included getting ready for two commitments. By the time Bill Kurelic and Mark Porter graced today's BM5 ... things had changed? Or did they? Or did they change and then now could change again? We think Glenville linebacker Cincere Johnson will commit to Ohio State today at noon. We thought New Jersey defensive end Luke Wafle would follow suit about two hours later. 'Thought' is the operative word in the prior sentence. A certain West Coast school that plays B1G football has thrown a really expensive monkey wrench into the situation. It's a hang on kinda day on the Ohio State recruiting front.

What gives? We thought the Glenville Pipeline ran directly to Columbus. But ... Gainesville? Florida? Jamir 'JJ' Perez visited Florida this past weekend and came back a Gator. A big, tough, 340-pound Gator that 'Nutters figured would handle the defensive interior in Columbus for years to come.  This sounds like a case for Bill Kurelic and Mark Porter, Ohio's foremost recruiting info dudes.  Good news: The Dean and Grand Poobah are here ... again.

Ohio State is getting it done in New Jersey. The Garden State used to be Penn State's recruiting playground. No longer.  The Buckeyes will have Jersey natives Davison Igbinosun, Jaylen McClain, De'Zie Jones, Quincy Porter, Deshawn Stewart and Tyrone Malone on the roster.  Another Jersey guy - Class of 2026 defensive back Jordan Thomas - verbally committed to Ohio State on Monday. We break it all down with Bill Kurelic and Mark Porter. We also delve into the offer for Jett Washington, Ohioans that could earn an offer and how QB is looking for the Class of 2026.
