The difference between Will Howard and Kyle McCord is both have pretty equal arm talent and maybe McCord is even slightly better but McCord was not the leader that Howard has been and McCord lacks the ability and intention to run out of the pocket that Howard has. Howard is slightly bigger and can be used on QB power runs and read options in short-yardage situations and the red zone, also. Will Howard was going to be a 4th round NFL grade pick and had a Senior Bowl invite but wants to improve his NFL draft stock.
OSU just got a new AD and President. Thats the reason in the change of philosophy on NIL. They gave Ryan Day the reigns to build the team back while they made the new hires.

Opposing fans and media act as if OSU is going crazy using money to totally make up a team. They have 6 transfers this year. One is a transfer from Ohio University, so hardly surprising he became a Buckeye with the opportunity. Three are from Alabama after Saban left, and Caleb Downs and the QB Sayin, had OSU as a top choice if not second overall to Alabama when they committed. In addition, OSU's new OC, O'Brien, is who recruited Sayin to the Tide. None are unreasonable gets when you look at the facts.
That Michigan game is going to become less and less important with the expanded playoffs. If Ohio State goes 12-1 and loses to Michigan but still makes the playoffs and makes run at a championship people won't care much about that one loss. The rivalry was built largely on the importance to win the Big Ten, make the rise bowl, make the playoffs and win a championship. Do you remember how important it was to appear in a rose bowl? When was the last time Ohio State even appeared in the rose bowl. Often times the rose bowl is a consolation prize to whomever doesn't win the big ten and the playoffs.
@@a2made280 That would be a big mistake. That'll set the program back five years and there's no guarantee they'd replace him with anyone better. The Michigan game won't be that important anymore. We can't afford to be overly emotional.
Buck’s fan here. Nothing is a lock, when it comes to this game…either the game of college football itself or the much more recent game of the transfer portal and NIL. But you wouldn’t be out of bounds or guilty of overreach if you projected a championship season in 2024 for the Buckeyes. While there are a few areas that admittedly warrant additional attention…like the O-line and the kicking game…and special teams play…in all other aspects the amazing level of talent now on display is unlike anything this team or this fan base has ever seen. But implicit within that context the imperatives are the same as they have always been: Success at Ohio State for any coach is spelled “Beat TTUN”, “Win the B1G” and “Bring home a national championship”. The future of our current head coach is always going to be dependent on how well he delivers on those three interdependent requirements. The fact that none of those requirements has yet been met over multiple consecutive seasons greatly adds to the sense of immediacy affecting the coming season. At the very least you have to expect that a win over their rival is an absolute in 2024…for all of the aforementioned reasons and especially now that TTUN must replace not only their head coach, but a host of other key personnel on and off the field. The sense is that if he (Day) and they (the Buck’s) can’t get it done this time around, the former is going to have to roll on out of Columbus and seek his next challenge elsewhere. And I’m sure he’s aware of where things stand…in that regard. The recent unprecedented moves in the portal are sufficient tacit proof of that. But it doesn’t stop there…not for the man in charge of the Ohio State Buckeyes, and especially for the man in charge of a team as overwhelmingly laden with talent…as _this_ one.
And I love how ESPN heaps all of this external pressure on Ryan Day. They never put pressure on Saban or Sweeney when Clemson was really good. They just always talked about how good they were. They would have NEVER said Saban or Dabo was in jeopardy of losing their job if the don’t win every game. Even the kindest at ESPN hates Ohio State.
Will Howard out ran corners and safeties. Kyle could even step up in a pocket. It’s a drastic difference. Kyle was bad . Wrs this year played lazy which didn’t help, but Kyle was bad at Ohio state.
Boatload of portal additions? It's such a false narrative. OSU brought in 4 transfers that no one cared about, then Saban retires and they hit on two Alabama guys that you have to go after if they're available. That's 6 total. Meanwhile, A&M is over 20, Ole Miss at 16, and Oregon, FSU, Texas, Miami, etc, are all in double digits.
OSU picks up #1 QB 2024 #1 RB in SEC #1 FS in the country Alabama’s center Best QB in the Big 12 You can have 20 decent players but they don’t equal 6 elite studs. 4 quarters don’t equal a dollar my guy.
@@takforce06 sayin won’t play this year . And these days an unhappy guy can easily enter the portal again next year . Howard was not nearly the best qb in the big 12 lol. I’ll give you the rb/safety but he’s right in the portal additions are overhyped for what a 85 player roster is. They have hole’s especially at wideout which is not normal for Ohio State.
@@NoaaahoriginalThey have holes but it's not at WR. They still have the best WR room in College football. Egbuka will be the first or second receiver taken in the 2025 draft, Innis is much farther along than MHJ was at that time (Said MHJ), Ballard has elite speed and Jeremiah Smith is a freak. I didn't even mention a couple of the backups who were 4 and 5 star players coming out of high school.
Despite what the haters say in the comment section. Ohio State has lost to Michigan 3 years in a row and lost 2 bowl games back to back years. The first half of the season and the second half for Ohio State has been solid. But losing TTUN and a rough post OHIO STATE IS DOING something about it! Ryan Day is tired of hearing his seat getting hot by the fans, ulmni, boosters ,players parents of players entire Buckeye Nation. So we must change and people are getting bugged by it
Whoever it is they better lock them down quick. Michigan is a dumpster 🔥 not even 3 myths, after winning a fake Natty 😂 I wonder how many of Michigans players like Bamma players will run to Ohio State to play on a true championship contender ? I hear rumblings that Colston Loveland, & Will Johnson are inquiring if OSU would have them. Buh bye Jimmy
The Buckeyes are getting a ‘boat load’ of transfers? They got a total of 5-6 transfers. That seems like a raft vs boat load. 1 of the 5 transfers is the tight end from Ohio University. Sayin is a considered a 2023 recruit b/c he just started 1-2 days of classes before Saban retired. Lastly, these players didn’t come to Ohio State just for the NIL - regardless of what Michigan & Georgia are complaining about.
If signal stealing is legal now, then so is stacking your team with talent. Go Buckeyes. I hope this pisses off Xigan. Ironic after all the BS the Buckeyes have incurred from Xigan fans especially their 3 in a row wins, the present preseason rankings have Xigan at #7 and the Buckeyes at #2. Looking forward to seeing Xigan in Columbus this year.
Can someone tell the NCAA to have a better schedule. They should start season Aug. 10, have 12 game reg season with 2 bye weeks (regular season end Nov 9). then Conf championship Nov 16 (playoffs determined Nov 17). playoffs start Nov 29-30 (Thanksgiving weekend). 2nd round/Elite 8 Dec 7, final 4 Dec 21, Championship Jan 1. It keeps it away from competing with NFL playoffs and kids a few extra bye weeks to heal so we see star players competing. OSU vs Michigan. have Halloween night Thursday night.
Love the show. Go Bucks. Love there additions and aggressiveness in the portal. Kiffin is mad yet ole miss has the most transfers. No double standards Lane just cuz ole miss cant recruit like OSU.
Will Howard adds a dynamic in the run game that Kyle didn’t. You are also gonna see will Howard go from WR talent from KSU to OSU. It’s going to be a drastic upgrade in weapons from there
I think too many people make too much out of a QBs mobility. The biggest difference we're going to so going from McCord to Howard is his mobility but his ability to find receivers. McCord could physically make every pass on the field but had difficulties finding the open receivers. He didn't make quick recognitions and go through his progression. Howard's mobility will certainly be a great asset at times but Howard won't need to check down to the safe routs as often.
I feel about Devin Brown what most people thought about Kyle McCord. Not that I think McCord was the man it’s just Quinn Ewers and Dylan Riola left the Bucks with there pants down.
Reports coming out of Columbus indicate that Ohio State spent $15.5M to retain current players & add new ones via portal. Coffers now being refilled as fans and alums support the recent moves. If they can do it, why wouldn’t they?
Day said $13 million was needed to retain the current players. Consider the number that might consider going pro as 2nd or 3rd day picks, that's reasonable. The NIL$'s may make first or second round picks stay but in most years NIL wouldn't be enough. Some are staying however because they want to win a championship. They were already getting NIL.
Red shirt Nolan give Sayin the job he goes pro Nolan gets a year and he goes pro, any QB at Ohio state with the receivers needs 1 year to play go pro and probably 1st rd pick. Look at Williams receiver left Ohio State went to Alabama was a first round pick with 1 year of work. So kick back make your money get in a year go pro.
I know tOSU has a 9-1 record vs Oregon but the last time they met in 2018 @the Shoe Oregon got it done - but both teams are vastly different and stacked on both sides of the ball (Oregon's HC then was the worst in game coach in program history) - this game's @Autzen that will be rockin' - going to be a great game...like Oregon in a close one...
Ohio state has had 4 first round WR on their team . A guy in stroud who just had arguably the greatest rookie season ever and still couldn’t crack the playoffs it’s crazy how yall exaggerate the portal
I'm really trying to understand the point you're making here or the logic behind it. I don't understand what Stroud and the WRs have to do with portal.
@@ScottCleve33 it’s an obvious point SCOTT. People saying this team should make it to the national championship with the 12 team playoff and the big ten expanding this is the weakest I’ve seen Ohio states offense in years . Defensively they well suited but Ohio state got a lot of holes. I see though the “portal” seems to have blinded yall. They got 2 guys tbh that are pretty good. Ummm Seth McLaughlin was trash for Bama he’s rated a 4 star rated transfer. I don’t believe 2 guys on opposite sides of the ball turns a team into title contention. Logic .
@@Noaaahoriginal Well logic should tell you that Ohio State was a good team and only really lost one game all season and that was by only 6 points. Logic should also tell you that they had a few holes and areas to improve upon. This is where the portal comes in the filled some areas of need. They upgraded the QB position and the filled the safety position that was opened up by a player going into the draft. By all accounts Mclaughlin was considered a good center, good enough to start for Alabama, but had problems with snap. Ohio State believes they can fix that. Again, objectively speaking Ohio State had one of the top six teams in college football and their biggest issue/weakness was at QB and that's been upgraded. Through the portal by the way. And meanwhile they upgraded areas like RB and solidified their future at QB.
@@ScottCleve33 huhhhh??? The dude in this video is right Will Howard is not much of an upgrade McCord by the numbers was better than him. How you gone say Ryan day who’s not nearly as good as a coach as Nick Saban and a guy who bama fired in bill o Brien will fix a dude who can’t snap 😂😂😂😂. Y’all crazy man. The big ten got harder . The playoffs got harder you are wrong by all accounts . But hey you got your beliefs can’t argue that.
And it’s very hard to believe ole miss has a better roster or even Texas than bama they got 4 and 5 stars all over the roster and have had 6 commits following the 8 players leaving in a week
Saying Devin brown is a nfl quarterback is pretty premature. He hasn’t played much and the bowl game was a let down. However, in his defense.. the O line was awful. So it’s not a really fair judgment.
Ohio state is trying to buy a championship and politically by forcing Jim Harbaugh out of Michigan and maybe Nick Sabin out of Alabama, but I don’t know if this is what the NCAA had in mind with Colorado students buying a house for their dad or the majority of draft eligible went back to college where they will make more money
This is completely over blown. Ohio St has 6 transfers. That’s it. It would be 5 transfers, if the new Bama coach wasn’t a slimeball and he just release the LOI of the QB Sayin. Dudes been on campus for like 2 weeks. But the coach made him transfer.
The athletic director of Ohio State announces his retirement before all of this most likely the unethical and may be illegal steps in case of a big scandal break out which most these athletes have not attended a single class
The last part about coach perception is why it should be a 32 team playoff. Going 9-3 in the ACC, B10, B12, SEC should be enough to give you the CHANCE of having a postseason run. Current system has good coaches being called terrible or having job security questioned regularly (Franklin, Ferentz, Gundy, Kelly come to mind)
@@RyanKilgore2these sec folks are hilarious. where was Joe Burrow from? You know the qb who had arguably the greatest season in cfb history? Torched every sec team? Sec homers didnt say shi* then. I guess all these 4-5 stars (didnt bama have like 74 pre Saban retirement?) go to sec for fruit baskets and target gift cards because “it means more.”😂😂
Nobody "pays" for a natti. It's never worked in any sport. Sure teams who pay out lots of money to put together talent can win but it's never a guarantee. You pay to get the best talent on the field you can then you need to go out and earn it. Lots of things can go wrong on the way though. This is why I hate these Ohio State fans who say that Day needs to win it all (or at least beat Michigan) or be fired. The football landscape is too volatile right now. If they fire Day the program may take another 5 years to recover.
What a bunch of horse hockey! 3rd generation graduate here. Ryan Day is John loser Cooper 2.0. Day needs to be fired NOW. Why do you think his starting QB transferred? I don't want to hear some talking head saying Day is a great coach ....yea, Loser Cooper won about 85% of his games but was terrible in THE GAME and in bowl games. New AD, we need a new football coach too.
B1G homers. You guys are tired of holding one loss or even undefeated SEC teams away from playoff contention when the votes matter, most of the voters being home in the Northeast. Kept Alabama (who took Michigan into overtime by the way) out of playoff contention until they had no choice but to put them there. Yes, they made the 3rd place round (non existent) but if they took Michigan into overtime then they could have probably beaten Tex/Wa..
Truth be told Georgia probably would have beaten all of them. The reality though is that this NIL deal benefits the Big Ten greatly. NIL deals are paid by the university. They're all paid (or are supposed to be) by third party individuals. Of the top 10 college football fan bases 6 are in the Big Ten. That's counting the new additions of USC and Oregon. The SEC only has three and that counts the new addition of Texas. This will make it difficult for SEC teams to compete for talent with the Big Ten schools.
UGA fan… idgaf who the sucknuts picked up. We brought back good talent just like them and brought in the #1 class on top of a good portal haul. Haven’t been this confident since stet came back for his final ride. Thought we had a good chance last season but knew injury’s were going to be a problem from day 1. We started the season the most injured we’ve been since Kirby got there. If we can escape that fate again this season I love where we are. Go dawgs
Ryan Cooper Day, may be a great coach. Just like John Cooper he pisses down his pants vs TTUN. Take an L to the 💩 & Blue sucks! Losing 3 in a row. Then laying a 💩 sandwich in a bowl game is unacceptable! Cooper Day clock is ticking. Lose 4 in a row & his azz is out of here
HAHAHAHA....Day has an immunity clause for losing against cheaters.....Oh wait It was the other guy who asked for immunity then bolted for NFL. Be ready NCAA dressed as grim reaper will take your title and wins
I remember when it was Rose Bowl or bust in the Big Ten. Today the Rose Bowl is usually the consolation prize to whomever doesn't win the Big Ten and makes it to the playoffs. The college football landscape is changing and beating Michigan will be less important. Eventual it'll be unlikely to go undefeated in the regular season and it'll be likely that most playoff teams will have 1, 2 or even three losses. What made the Ohio State Michigan rivalry so big were what was at stake. An undefeated season, a trip to the Rose Bowl and a shot at a national championship. Those days are over.
Your coach was 3-5, with three wins via cheating, was 2-4 in his last clean season. Ran your program into massive sanctions, half the team left, and then he bolted to the NFL leaving your dumpster fire program back into the garbage can it’s head popped out of with sunglasses and playbooks. You my friend are the loser.
Michigan cheated. They are a disgrace. I guess they got desperate after a twenty year beat down. No one outside of Ann Arbor respects those losers. Soon to be Vacated.

If Ohio State goes 12-1 and loses to Michigan but still makes the playoffs and makes run at a championship people won't care much about that one loss. The rivalry was built largely on the importance to win the Big Ten, make the rise bowl, make the playoffs and win a championship.
Do you remember how important it was to appear in a rose bowl? When was the last time Ohio State even appeared in the rose bowl. Often times the rose bowl is a consolation prize to whomever doesn't win the big ten and the playoffs.
@@ScottCleve33osu fans not going to be able to handle another loss especially in Columbus with THIS team they will want him out
@@a2made280 That would be a big mistake. That'll set the program back five years and there's no guarantee they'd replace him with anyone better.
The Michigan game won't be that important anymore. We can't afford to be overly emotional.

Buck’s fan here. Nothing is a lock, when it comes to this game…either the game of college football itself or the much more recent game of the transfer portal and NIL. But you wouldn’t be out of bounds or guilty of overreach if you projected a championship season in 2024 for the Buckeyes. While there are a few areas that admittedly warrant additional attention…like the O-line and the kicking game…and special teams play…in all other aspects the amazing level of talent now on display is unlike anything this team or this fan base has ever seen. But implicit within that context the imperatives are the same as they have always been: Success at Ohio State for any coach is spelled “Beat TTUN”, “Win the B1G” and “Bring home a national championship”. The future of our current head coach is always going to be dependent on how well he delivers on those three interdependent requirements. The fact that none of those requirements has yet been met over multiple consecutive seasons greatly adds to the sense of immediacy affecting the coming season. At the very least you have to expect that a win over their rival is an absolute in 2024…for all of the aforementioned reasons and especially now that TTUN must replace not only their head coach, but a host of other key personnel on and off the field. The sense is that if he (Day) and they (the Buck’s) can’t get it done this time around, the former is going to have to roll on out of Columbus and seek his next challenge elsewhere. And I’m sure he’s aware of where things stand…in that regard. The recent unprecedented moves in the portal are sufficient tacit proof of that. But it doesn’t stop there…not for the man in charge of the Ohio State Buckeyes, and especially for the man in charge of a team as overwhelmingly laden with talent…as _this_ one.
Plus Bill O'Brien will be making the calls and not Ryan this season.
With This new Roster Ryan Day pretty much punched too tickets, either out of columbus or at the national champion stage hosting the trophy.
Hosting or Hoisting?
And I love how ESPN heaps all of this external pressure on Ryan Day. They never put pressure on Saban or Sweeney when Clemson was really good. They just always talked about how good they were. They would have NEVER said Saban or Dabo was in jeopardy of losing their job if the don’t win every game. Even the kindest at ESPN hates Ohio State.
Will Howard out ran corners and safeties. Kyle could even step up in a pocket. It’s a drastic difference. Kyle was bad . Wrs this year played lazy which didn’t help, but Kyle was bad at Ohio state.
He can fly
And nobody at Alabama blames Sayin either. We understand totally
SEC wasn't crying after the first 4 transfers to THE 😅 but those last 2 hit different..lol
Last 3... that RB is a stud
A++++ Great job gentleman.
Nobody had a problem with teams spending money
Until the biggest brand in cfb did it, now its a problem
Ohio State will show every college football team in the country how to do this NIL right!!!
Boatload of portal additions? It's such a false narrative. OSU brought in 4 transfers that no one cared about, then Saban retires and they hit on two Alabama guys that you have to go after if they're available. That's 6 total. Meanwhile, A&M is over 20, Ole Miss at 16, and Oregon, FSU, Texas, Miami, etc, are all in double digits.
OSU picks up
#1 QB 2024
#1 RB in SEC
#1 FS in the country
Alabama’s center
Best QB in the Big 12
You can have 20 decent players but they don’t equal 6 elite studs. 4 quarters don’t equal a dollar my guy.
Will Howard wasn’t even the best QB on his team
I think he was referring to Julian Sayin. He transferred from Bama and was the #1 QB…
RTR
@@takforce06 sayin won’t play this year . And these days an unhappy guy can easily enter the portal again next year . Howard was not nearly the best qb in the big 12 lol. I’ll give you the rb/safety but he’s right in the portal additions are overhyped for what a 85 player roster is. They have hole’s especially at wideout which is not normal for Ohio State.
@@NoaaahoriginalThey have holes but it's not at WR. They still have the best WR room in College football. Egbuka will be the first or second receiver taken in the 2025 draft, Innis is much farther along than MHJ was at that time (Said MHJ), Ballard has elite speed and Jeremiah Smith is a freak. I didn't even mention a couple of the backups who were 4 and 5 star players coming out of high school.
Despite what the haters say in the comment section. Ohio State has lost to Michigan 3 years in a row and lost 2 bowl games back to back years. The first half of the season and the second half for Ohio State has been solid. But losing TTUN and a rough post OHIO STATE IS DOING something about it! Ryan Day is tired of hearing his seat getting hot by the fans, ulmni, boosters ,players parents of players entire Buckeye Nation. So we must change and people are getting bugged by it
There is absolutely no heat on Ryan day. Those who think there is know nothing about TOSU
I think Michigan should hire Les Miles as next Michigan Head Coach
That'd be awesome
HAHAHA great Idea!
Whoever it is they better lock them down quick.
Michigan is a dumpster 🔥 not even 3 myths, after winning a fake Natty 😂 I wonder how many of Michigans players like Bamma players will run to Ohio State to play on a true championship contender ? I hear rumblings that Colston Loveland, &
Will Johnson are inquiring if OSU would have them.
Buh bye Jimmy
Ryan Day better be locked up for 10 years! He will have us winning 5 championships if he does
The Buckeyes are getting a ‘boat load’ of transfers? They got a total of 5-6 transfers. That seems like a raft vs boat load. 1 of the 5 transfers is the tight end from Ohio University. Sayin is a considered a 2023 recruit b/c he just started 1-2 days of classes before Saban retired. Lastly, these players didn’t come to Ohio State just for the NIL - regardless of what Michigan & Georgia are complaining about.
That tight end from Ohio is very good you donkey
Appreciate you guys. Go Bucks!
If signal stealing is legal now, then so is stacking your team with talent. Go Buckeyes. I hope this pisses off Xigan. Ironic after all the BS the Buckeyes have incurred from Xigan fans especially their 3 in a row wins, the present preseason rankings have Xigan at #7 and the Buckeyes at #2. Looking forward to seeing Xigan in Columbus this year.
Kyle Mccord can't hold Will Howard's jock
Howard is a proven champion! McCord was a product of playing with 4 & 5 star talent around him.
Can someone tell the NCAA to have a better schedule. They should start season Aug. 10, have 12 game reg season with 2 bye weeks (regular season end Nov 9). then Conf championship Nov 16 (playoffs determined Nov 17). playoffs start Nov 29-30 (Thanksgiving weekend). 2nd round/Elite 8 Dec 7, final 4 Dec 21, Championship Jan 1. It keeps it away from competing with NFL playoffs and kids a few extra bye weeks to heal so we see star players competing. OSU vs Michigan. have Halloween night Thursday night.
Aug 10th in the south might kill someone fron the heat
When Harbaugh left Michigan he still had a losing record against Ohio State
Love the show. Go Bucks. Love there additions and aggressiveness in the portal. Kiffin is mad yet ole miss has the most transfers. No double standards Lane just cuz ole miss cant recruit like OSU.
I highly doubt Sayin was scared to compete with Austin Mack lmao
😂 you must be the guru
@@John-fq5nt sure am
Who was dumb enough to say/suggest that he was afraid to compete? Ohio State has a much higher ranked QB (Air Nolan) than Austin Mack. Get serious.
@@stephaniechaffin1154 Mr Ryan
Will Howard adds a dynamic in the run game that Kyle didn’t. You are also gonna see will Howard go from WR talent from KSU to OSU. It’s going to be a drastic upgrade in weapons from there
I think too many people make too much out of a QBs mobility. The biggest difference we're going to so going from McCord to Howard is his mobility but his ability to find receivers. McCord could physically make every pass on the field but had difficulties finding the open receivers. He didn't make quick recognitions and go through his progression. Howard's mobility will certainly be a great asset at times but Howard won't need to check down to the safe routs as often.
Why are you worried about how people spend their money?
I feel about Devin Brown what most people thought about Kyle McCord. Not that I think McCord was the man it’s just Quinn Ewers and Dylan Riola left the Bucks with there pants down.
What did Dylan Raiola do. He is a 24’ recruit. Same class as Sayin and Noland.
Money is not a problem at Ohio State when they have the biggest fan base in the nation
🤔I though Michigan had the largest alumni in the world???
That would make Michigan the biggest fan base wouldn’t it?
OSU vs Michigan:
The Game..
B1G Championship and then CFP... 😳😲😳
Ohio State has the biggest fan base
Best collegiate team money can buy. Congrats to 3rd base.
Ohio state off-season national champs agian lets give them another trophy for the best off-season roster again before playing any games
😂😂😂😂 you're big mad 😂😂
@scottcarpenter2921 Yes, I'm so upset I can't sleep after winning a national championship and beating osu yet again.
Purchases not additions, I’m fine go get your bag yo, but they are mercenaries and should be called as such
Offseason State University, pressure on Crying Ryan lol
Reports coming out of Columbus indicate that Ohio State spent $15.5M to retain current players & add new ones via portal. Coffers now being refilled as fans and alums support the recent moves. If they can do it, why wouldn’t they?
Day said $13 million was needed to retain the current players. Consider the number that might consider going pro as 2nd or 3rd day picks, that's reasonable. The NIL$'s may make first or second round picks stay but in most years NIL wouldn't be enough. Some are staying however because they want to win a championship. They were already getting NIL.
@@user-gk8js9xx4iYep, that makes sense to me. Credit to Ohio State for being bold and going hard.
Exactly. Go Bucks!
Red shirt Nolan give Sayin the job he goes pro Nolan gets a year and he goes pro, any QB at Ohio state with the receivers needs 1 year to play go pro and probably 1st rd pick. Look at Williams receiver left Ohio State went to Alabama was a first round pick with 1 year of work. So kick back make your money get in a year go pro.
Day better 2-0 Ducks and Michigan .. or NIGHT !!!
I know tOSU has a 9-1 record vs Oregon but the last time they met in 2018 @the Shoe Oregon got it done - but both teams are vastly different and stacked on both sides of the ball (Oregon's HC then was the worst in game coach in program history) - this game's @Autzen that will be rockin' - going to be a great game...like Oregon in a close one...
2021
Ohio state has had 4 first round WR on their team . A guy in stroud who just had arguably the greatest rookie season ever and still couldn’t crack the playoffs it’s crazy how yall exaggerate the portal
I'm really trying to understand the point you're making here or the logic behind it. I don't understand what Stroud and the WRs have to do with portal.
@@ScottCleve33 it’s an obvious point SCOTT. People saying this team should make it to the national championship with the 12 team playoff and the big ten expanding this is the weakest I’ve seen Ohio states offense in years . Defensively they well suited but Ohio state got a lot of holes. I see though the “portal” seems to have blinded yall. They got 2 guys tbh that are pretty good. Ummm Seth McLaughlin was trash for Bama he’s rated a 4 star rated transfer. I don’t believe 2 guys on opposite sides of the ball turns a team into title contention. Logic .
@@Noaaahoriginal Well logic should tell you that Ohio State was a good team and only really lost one game all season and that was by only 6 points.
Logic should also tell you that they had a few holes and areas to improve upon. This is where the portal comes in the filled some areas of need. They upgraded the QB position and the filled the safety position that was opened up by a player going into the draft.
By all accounts Mclaughlin was considered a good center, good enough to start for Alabama, but had problems with snap. Ohio State believes they can fix that.
Again, objectively speaking Ohio State had one of the top six teams in college football and their biggest issue/weakness was at QB and that's been upgraded. Through the portal by the way. And meanwhile they upgraded areas like RB and solidified their future at QB.
@@ScottCleve33 huhhhh??? The dude in this video is right Will Howard is not much of an upgrade McCord by the numbers was better than him. How you gone say Ryan day who’s not nearly as good as a coach as Nick Saban and a guy who bama fired in bill o Brien will fix a dude who can’t snap 😂😂😂😂. Y’all crazy man. The big ten got harder . The playoffs got harder you are wrong by all accounts . But hey you got your beliefs can’t argue that.
@@ScottCleve33 if Ryan Day don’t succeed next year he’s fired and their “depth” at qb will transfer lol.
And it’s very hard to believe ole miss has a better roster or even Texas than bama they got 4 and 5 stars all over the roster and have had 6 commits following the 8 players leaving in a week
Saying Devin brown is a nfl quarterback is pretty premature. He hasn’t played much and the bowl game was a let down. However, in his defense.. the O line was awful. So it’s not a really fair judgment.
Ohio state is trying to buy a championship and politically by forcing Jim Harbaugh out of Michigan and maybe Nick Sabin out of Alabama, but I don’t know if this is what the NCAA had in mind with Colorado students buying a house for their dad or the majority of draft eligible went back to college where they will make more money
Straight up capitalism. Adapt or die. No hard feelings. Just business.
On paper we look great but it comes down to playing the games we will see Hopefully we will be great
This is completely over blown.
Ohio St has 6 transfers. That’s it.
It would be 5 transfers, if the new Bama coach wasn’t a slimeball and he just release the LOI of the QB Sayin.
Dudes been on campus for like 2 weeks. But the coach made him transfer.
The athletic director of Ohio State announces his retirement before all of this most likely the unethical and may be illegal steps in case of a big scandal break out which most these athletes have not attended a single class
Wrong O’Brien recruited Sayin Air Nolan needs to get out of there.
Espn = sec
Agreed
Seth Mclaughlin had snap issues ALL SEASON, not just the Rose bowl
Not JUST this past season.....
@jamesniday9236 I think he was "backdoor"" gambling, trying to skew the score, throw games, to be honest. Straight up.
RD what about your boy KH saying tosu players are thinking NFL and um isn’t
7:50 7:51
The last part about coach perception is why it should be a 32 team playoff. Going 9-3 in the ACC, B10, B12, SEC should be enough to give you the CHANCE of having a postseason run. Current system has good coaches being called terrible or having job security questioned regularly (Franklin, Ferentz, Gundy, Kelly come to mind)
Sayin is going to seriously regard his choice
You strike me as the type to have a "no regards" tattoo
@avi7278 he might even be missing a letter too cuz " no regards "
@@Deathstroke-mz5ty what does your tattoo, "no yogurts" mean? ... "no bro, it says no regerts"

I am suspect that paying for a natti is not going to work....go dawgs.
Egg head
SEC been doing it for years....Now its a problem when someone else throws their hat in ?
@@RyanKilgore2these sec folks are hilarious. where was Joe Burrow from? You know the qb who had arguably the greatest season in cfb history? Torched every sec team? Sec homers didnt say shi* then. I guess all these 4-5 stars (didnt bama have like 74 pre Saban retirement?) go to sec for fruit baskets and target gift cards because “it means more.”😂😂
Nobody "pays" for a natti. It's never worked in any sport. Sure teams who pay out lots of money to put together talent can win but it's never a guarantee. You pay to get the best talent on the field you can then you need to go out and earn it. Lots of things can go wrong on the way though.
This is why I hate these Ohio State fans who say that Day needs to win it all (or at least beat Michigan) or be fired. The football landscape is too volatile right now. If they fire Day the program may take another 5 years to recover.
RYAN DAY can win non big games but he can not win the big games 3 years losing to Michigan and 2 back to back bowl losses
Ohio State beat Michigan 9 years in a row before they finally won one quit tuning 210 your horn Michigan you've done nothing yet
You people wanted this s***. So don’t complain when OSU decides to buy up everything under the sun.
😂😂
Money talks!
What a bunch of horse hockey! 3rd generation graduate here. Ryan Day is John loser Cooper 2.0. Day needs to be fired NOW. Why do you think his starting QB transferred? I don't want to hear some talking head saying Day is a great coach ....yea, Loser Cooper won about 85% of his games but was terrible in THE GAME and in bowl games. New AD, we need a new football coach too.
Quit being biased? I smell a hypocrite.
B1G homers. You guys are tired of holding one loss or even undefeated SEC teams away from playoff contention when the votes matter, most of the voters being home in the Northeast. Kept Alabama (who took Michigan into overtime by the way) out of playoff contention until they had no choice but to put them there. Yes, they made the 3rd place round (non existent) but if they took Michigan into overtime then they could have probably beaten Tex/Wa..
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah SEC homer 😂
Truth be told Georgia probably would have beaten all of them.
The reality though is that this NIL deal benefits the Big Ten greatly. NIL deals are paid by the university. They're all paid (or are supposed to be) by third party individuals. Of the top 10 college football fan bases 6 are in the Big Ten. That's counting the new additions of USC and Oregon. The SEC only has three and that counts the new addition of Texas. This will make it difficult for SEC teams to compete for talent with the Big Ten schools.
lol ESPN literally has a contract with the SEC.. not the Big Ten
UGA fan… idgaf who the sucknuts picked up. We brought back good talent just like them and brought in the #1 class on top of a good portal haul. Haven’t been this confident since stet came back for his final ride. Thought we had a good chance last season but knew injury’s were going to be a problem from day 1. We started the season the most injured we’ve been since Kirby got there. If we can escape that fate again this season I love where we are.

Ryan Cooper Day, may be a great coach. Just like John Cooper he pisses down his pants vs TTUN. Take an L to the 💩 & Blue sucks! Losing 3 in a row. Then laying a 💩 sandwich in a bowl game is unacceptable! Cooper Day clock is ticking. Lose 4 in a row & his azz is out of here
HAHAHAHA....Day has an immunity clause for losing against cheaters.....Oh wait It was the other guy who asked for immunity then bolted for NFL. Be ready NCAA dressed as grim reaper will take your title and wins
I remember when it was Rose Bowl or bust in the Big Ten. Today the Rose Bowl is usually the consolation prize to whomever doesn't win the Big Ten and makes it to the playoffs. The college football landscape is changing and beating Michigan will be less important. Eventual it'll be unlikely to go undefeated in the regular season and it'll be likely that most playoff teams will have 1, 2 or even three losses.
What made the Ohio State Michigan rivalry so big were what was at stake. An undefeated season, a trip to the Rose Bowl and a shot at a national championship. Those days are over.
Day didn't need Covid to back outta a rivalry tho 😅
Michigan cheated for two years. Last year was fair and square but was obviously evenly matched and came down to 1 last drive. But sure
@@rayserifi8683 Three years. How many opponents did Michigan scout for in the 2023 season before they were outed.

Your coach was 3-5, with three wins via cheating, was 2-4 in his last clean season. Ran your program into massive sanctions, half the team left, and then he bolted to the NFL leaving your dumpster fire program back into the garbage can it’s head popped out of with sunglasses and playbooks. You my friend are the loser.
Michigan cheated. They are a disgrace. I guess they got desperate after a twenty year beat down. No one outside of Ann Arbor respects those losers. Soon to be Vacated.
