I know a guy that knows a guy.....and wonder how a publicly traded company like Adidas, can funnel cash to a university to buy a player? Have been out of corporate america for several decades. Oh wait. I see race cars sporting companies, and golf pros sporting many/several logos on their shirts/bags etc. Will this RB have to wear an Adidas patch on his uni? Sorry folks, answered my own question. Guess the Buckeyes are going to have to get Nike sponsor some NIL bucks to compete. Anyone remember Roller Ball (original with James Caan) where corporations sponsored games? Kinda sounds like we're getting there, or are there.

OSU has nothing to do with the deal. These kids have their own deals with Adidas. That's why JJ Smith can be sponsored by Adidas but still wear Nike as its sponsored by the actual football program. The best kids in college sports now are making a bulk of their NIL money from national brands and the deals are solely with them and independent of the collectives. My friend's daughter was the starting SG for OSU the last few years, she had NIL deals with: Hollister, State Farm, Beats, and Raising Cane's just to name a few. Those deals had nothing to do with the OSU collective

2027 tOSU Recruiting Discussion

That’s what I meant. He’s just starting….here. It’s going to be a minute before the 27 class wraps up, if he whiffs on a couple of his targets and loses Broen, yeah. That’s going to be a super disappointing start. If he keeps Brown and lands a major target with having just started here, I think it’s a successful start all things considered.

That's where I land too. Unfortunately Hartline spoiled the fanbase to a point where they expect OSU to land multiple 5stars every cycle, or its a loss of a class. I can see Hankton utilizing the Portal much more than Hartline, and in an ironic twist I can see Hartline having to use the Portal since he won't get near the same type of talent at USF

Imagine the Big Ten telling the NFL to pool it's media rights with the Arena league. For the health of the sport obviously.

Game Thread tOSU at Texas, Sat. Sept 12, 7:30 pm ET, ABC

Hopefully, your scenario will lead to a break-out game for one of the new LBs, who will spy Manning all over the field, and send him to the whirl-pool to ease his black-and-blue body. If Manning is going to earn his Heisman hype, he'll have to start with the Buckeyes, and hopefully our DBs will be up to the coverage task, FORCING him to try to earn yards with his feet. Love the Buckeye 'coverage' sacks.

2026 World Cup (Official Thread)

ScriptOhio

Tiny Cape Verde, making its debut at the World Cup, pulled off a stunning upset to shut out heavily favored Spain in a 0-0 draw on Monday.

"This means everything for our country," Cape Verde coach Pedro Leitão Brito said.

"We have always said that we wanted everybody to see our country, our team and we have shown organization and braveness and this is proof of what our country is about - resilience and to try to overcome hardships."

Just sayin': Hey Cape Verde fans, how do you celebrate your 0-0 (i.e. draw) game with Spain?

"Hell, I don't know maybe we'll take home a couple goats for sex"
