Ohio State linebacker Arvell Reese was a dynamic pass rush threat through much of the season, but his role has changed as the Buckeyes have faced quarterbacks like Michigan's Bryce Underwood and Indiana's Fernando Mendoza, who present a run threat in addition to passing. However, with Miami Hurricanes QB Carson Beck on deck in the Cotton Bowl, that could free up Reese to go back to more of an attacking role for OSU defensive coordinator Matt Patricia.In this episode of the Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning podcast, you'll hear from Patricia about that and much more.

Jesse Butler was eighteen years old when he pleaded no contest to eleven felony charges in Stillwater, Oklahoma. The charges included attempted rape, rape by instrumentation, and domestic assault by strangulation against two teenage girls. One victim was choked until she lost consciousness and required emergency surgery on her neck. Her doctor told her she came within thirty seconds of dying. Police recovered video from Butler's phone showing him strangling the other victim. Prosecutors could have pursued a sentence of up to seventy-eight years in prison. Instead, a judge granted Butler youthful offender status. His punishment? Community service, counseling sessions, and supervision until his nineteenth birthday. No prison time. No sex offender registration. If he complies with the terms, his record gets erased completely. The victims' families say they were never consulted about the plea deal. Both girls were prepared to testify. That opportunity was taken from them without explanation. Butler's father previously served as Director of Football Operations at Oklahoma State University. The judge who approved the youthful offender designation holds two degrees from OSU. No direct impropriety has been established, but protesters and families are demanding accountability and transparency. In this episode, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins us to break down the systemic failures that allowed this outcome. We examine the DA's decision to cut a deal without victim notification, the optics of institutional connections, and the message this sends to survivors everywhere who are weighing whether to come forward. State Representative J.J. Humphrey has called for a grand jury investigation. Protesters have gathered outside the courthouse at every hearing. The families have one message they want America to hear: love should not hurt, and justice should not be optional. #JesseButler #Stillwater #Oklahoma #TrueCrime #JusticeForSurvivors #YouthfulOffender #NoJailTime #DomesticViolence #TeenDatingViolence #LoveShouldntHurt #JusticeSystemFailure #RobinDreeke #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #VictimsRights #TrueCrimeAnalysis #OklahomaJustice #AccountabilityNow #SurvivorStories #CourtSystemFailed Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Then we talk SVWVfB and the big Buli match that was ... and how SVW's hair was pretty much all we paid attention to. We chat eight different goal scorers, Deniz, El K, Jamie, Ata, Jeff, Demi, Alex, and, of course ... PodCat.Apologies for the intro and exit ... we ran out of free stuff on this platform!

Two teenage boys in Stillwater, Oklahoma. Both charged with first-degree rape. Both charged with strangulation. Both were 17 at the time of the alleged crimes. Both attacked teenage girls they were dating. One of them walked out of court with community service. The other is sitting in jail on $30,000 bond, facing five years to life. What's the difference? Jesse Mack Butler was convicted on ten rape-related charges in 2025. One of his victims nearly died—her doctor testified she was thirty seconds from death during a strangulation attack. Police found videos on his phone of the assaults. He faced 78 years in prison. He got 150 hours of community service. Butler's father is the former Director of Operations for Oklahoma State football. The judge who granted him youthful offender status holds two degrees from OSU. A state lawmaker has called for a grand jury investigation, saying the deal "smacks of political favor." Now there's a second case. Canyn Rion Porter was charged in December 2025 with first-degree rape and strangulation. The allegations are strikingly similar. But Porter doesn't have family connections to OSU. He doesn't have a private attorney. He applied for a public defender. So what happens now? Does Porter get the same deal Butler got? Or does he go to prison while Butler stays home under a curfew? Either answer raises serious questions about how justice works in Payne County—and who it works for. In this video, I break down both cases, the controversial youthful offender statute, the family connections that have people asking questions, and what these cases tell us about accountability in America. The question isn't just what happens to Jesse Butler or Canyn Porter. It's what happens to the next girl. #JesseButler #CanynPorter #Stillwater #StillwaterOklahoma #OklahomaState #OSU #PayneCounty #YouthfulOffender #JusticeSystem #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeNews #CriminalJustice #JJHumphrey #CommunityService #TwoTierJustice Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The parents of Jesse Butler's victims are breaking their silence — and what they're revealing is devastating. Jesse Mack Butler, 18, of Stillwater, Oklahoma, pleaded no contest to 11 felony charges including attempted rape, rape by instrumentation, and domestic assault by strangulation against two teenage girls. One victim was strangled until she lost consciousness and required surgery on her neck. Her doctor told her she was 30 seconds away from dying. Police found video on Butler's phone of him strangling the other victim. He faced 78 years in prison. Instead, a judge granted him "youthful offender" status — and he received community service, counseling, and supervision until his 19th birthday. No prison. No sex offender registry. If he complies, his record gets wiped clean. The victims' families say they were never consulted about the plea deal. Both girls were willing to testify. That choice was taken from them. Butler's father is the former Director of Football Operations at Oklahoma State University. The judge who granted youthful offender status holds two degrees from OSU. No direct impropriety has been proven — but the families and protesters are demanding answers. "Community service for this type of crime, that's nothing," one victim's father told Nightline. "People get that for minor crimes." State Rep. J.J. Humphrey is calling for a grand jury investigation. Protesters have surrounded the courthouse at every hearing. And the parents have one message for America: "Love shouldn't hurt." #JesseButler #Stillwater #Oklahoma #TrueCrime #JusticeForSurvivors #YouthfulOffender #NoJailTime #DomesticViolence #TeenDatingViolence #LoveShouldntHurt Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The judge who granted him youthful offender status holds two degrees from OSU. A state lawmaker has called for a grand jury investigation, saying the deal "smacks of political favor." Now there's a second case. Canyn Rion Porter was charged in December 2025 with first-degree rape and strangulation. The allegations are strikingly similar. But Porter doesn't have family connections to OSU. He doesn't have a private attorney. He applied for a public defender. So what happens now? Does Porter get the same deal Butler got? Or does he go to prison while Butler stays home under a curfew? Either answer raises serious questions about how justice works in Payne County—and who it works for. In this video, I break down both cases, the controversial youthful offender statute, the family connections that have people asking questions, and what these cases tell us about accountability in America. The question isn't just what happens to Jesse Butler or Canyn Porter. It's what happens to the next girl. #JesseButler #CanynPorter #Stillwater #StillwaterOklahoma #OklahomaState #OSU #PayneCounty #YouthfulOffender #JusticeSystem #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeNews #CriminalJustice #JJHumphrey #CommunityService #TwoTierJustice Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Oregon is the leading producer of Christmas trees in the nation, accounting for about a third of all real Christmas trees sold in the U.S. Christmas tree farmers in Oregon grew more than 3 million Noble fir, Douglas fir and other Christmas tree varieties in 2023, the most recent year for which statistics are available. Priya Rajarapu is an assistant professor in the college of forestry at OSU and the Christmas tree specialist at OSU Extension Service. In the past year, she has visited 20 Christmas tree farms in Oregon where she has offered advice, diagnosed diseased trees and confirmed infestations of bark beetles and other pests. But the biggest threat Oregon’s roughly $120 million Christmas tree industry faces is climate change, according to Rajarapu. Extreme heat and drought can imperil the survival of Christmas trees, especially seedlings. Rajarapu has been studying mulch alternatives like compost that has been shown to boost the survival of seedlings during their first year. Rajarapu joins us for more details about her work and why non-native varieties such as Nordmann and Turkish firs are gaining in popularity among both farmers and consumers.

CFB Championship Week + Best Bets In this championship-week episode of the College Football Podcast, Griffin Warner and Lonte Smith break down four major conference title games and how each may influence the College Football Playoff CFB Championship Week + Best Be… . They open with Texas Tech as a 13-point favorite over BYU, noting BYU's coaching distraction and one-dimensional offense, while Texas Tech's stronger trenches, multidimensional attack, and defensive advantages make them the superior version of BYU. Next, they turn to Georgia-Alabama, with Georgia laying 2.5. Lonte initially leaned heavily to Georgia but hesitated after Georgia's sloppy showing vs Georgia Tech and Alabama's uneven play at Auburn. He cites Kirby Smart's elite in-game adjustments, Georgia's ability to take over late, Alabama's struggles with pressure and running QBs, and assigns only a slight home-field bump for Georgia in Atlanta. They then dive into the ACC chaos of Duke vs Virginia, with UVA favored by 3.5, and the wild possibility that a 7-5 Duke win could leave the ACC without a playoff representative, potentially opening two Group-of-5 bids. Lonte likes the over due to both teams' volatility and Duke's high variance, though Virginia's multidimensional offense is a matchup advantage. Finally, they break down Indiana vs Ohio State, OSU -4.5 and total 48, a game both teams may treat cautiously since both are likely playoff-bound regardless of result. Lonte expects vanilla game plans, ball control, and elite OSU defense limiting explosiveness, making first-half and full-game unders appealing. Indiana has more emotional motivation and program history incentive, while OSU has the superior trenches and proven ability to hold plays back for the postseason. Griffin leans to Indiana plus the points given low urgency for OSU and Indiana's higher motivational ceiling. Best bets: Lonte takes under 23.5 first half in Indiana-OSU, expecting a slow, conservative script; Griffin takes Indiana +4.5.
