I'm not sure who to put more stock in for their opinion on who the starting QB will be: Mary Kay Cabot or Chad Johnson. They both have about the same level of credibility.

FBS Oversight Committee Proposes Modifications to Practice Calendar, Transfer Portal

FBS Oversight Committee Proposes Modifications to Practice Calendar, Transfer Portal​

College football’s offseason calendar, preseason structure and transfer portal window could all be in line for changes beginning with the 2027 season, as the Division I Football Oversight Committee continues to advance a series of proposed reforms.

The committee’s latest proposal would significantly reshape how programs manage practice opportunities throughout the year, replacing the traditional spring model with two separate out-of-season practice periods totaling 21 practices. Neither segment could exceed five weeks.

The shift reflects the continued rise of NFL-style organized team activities (OTAs), which have gained support across college football in recent years. Programs are currently permitted 15 spring practices under the existing format.

Preseason preparation would also be shortened under the proposal, with the current 25-day allowance reduced to 21 days. Those practices could be conducted over a 27-day window. An NCAA release noted the adjustment accounts for expanded spring and summer opportunities, stating, “The committee noted that additional practice opportunities would be available during the spring and summer under the new out-of-season activities model, which warranted a four-day reduction.”

Alongside the practice changes, the committee recommended in April shifting the traditional start of the season up one week, to what is currently known as Week 0, ahead of Labor Day weekend.

Roster movement would also be affected under the proposal, as the transfer portal window would be reduced from 15 days to 10. The portal would open on the first business day following Jan. 1 each year. This past cycle’s window ran from Jan. 2 to Jan. 16 after the spring portal period was eliminated.

Beyond practice and roster changes, the committee also continues to explore adjustments to the off-campus recruiting model. That concept would increase the number of staff members permitted to recruit off campus to 17 (including the head coach) and establish a yearly allotment of recruiting days for programs. A formal proposal could be introduced later this summer, with implementation also targeted for 2027.

More rules that aren't actually enforceable. Sweet.

Biggest losers so far are Canada and South Korea...Canada for not finishing first in the group and thus not playing KO games in Canada, and South Korea for starting with a win and now having to sweat out the 3rd place race with 3 points and a -1. Today's spotlights are on Ecuador, Ivory Coast, Australia, and Paraguay. Sweden needs a point to get through for sure, but not much was really expected of them.

Think easier path to immediate playing time is likely a bigger driver here than pure NIL. Would be nice if we could manage to win this though.

There's playing time at Kentucky, too. Or you could go somewhere that won't waste you.

So he's gonna trade 'kissing asses' of HS kids for coaching up guys that are making 20x his salary? The guys will look at him, and say, 'lookit. I am getting paid $20 million because I can hit the jumper.' Who are you to tell me to change it? Guess my point being that there's always a downside somewhere you gotta deal with. Don't think I'd want to say in the huddle, 'this is what we're going to do, OK LeBron?'

Well, pull the trigger already and get those 'nanners a-dancing!

Well, am betting he had to pay extra for the extra ink caused by his ginormous arms. Or did he do that when he was smaller, and now its pixels are dialated?

He'll be what, a three time Captain this year? And while a starter, not getting the minutes or yards....that speaks volumes about how well he is thought of amongst the Buckeyes. More power to him. Go Bucks and Inniss!

Heading to Nashville at the beginning of March for the College Baseball Series. Other participants are Cincinnati, Vanderbilt and Virginia Tech.

Ohio State freshman shows incredible body transformation before taking a snap

Ohio State freshman shows incredible body transformation before taking a snap​

The Ohio State freshman could end up seeing significant snaps next season as a freshman.

Bey has made quite the transformation since enrolling in Columbus. He has done a great job dedicating himself to the weight room since deciding that he wants to play for the Buckeyes. While he won't be the starter as a freshman, he certainly will be seeing the field a little bit.

It would be surprising if Bey didn't see the field in some games this season. Bo Jackson and Isaiah West are the starter and the backup, so the Buckeyes are going to only play Bey a little bit. Even so, Bey seems like he's done too much to be sitting on the bench.

Mick Marotti continues to be the strength and conditioning coach for Ohio State. He has some detractors, but Ryan Day clearly thinks he is doing a good job. It's hard to argue with the results, especially after the Buckeyes won the national title in 2024.

Legend Bey could be the next impact freshman for the Ohio State football program​

Bey got a lot of snaps while Jackson and West were sidelined in the spring after having offseason surgery. Until he got hurt, he looked electric out on the field. Now, the Buckeyes have both of their main running backs back. However, they still have to figure out how to get Bey on the field.

Quite frankly, Bey showed too much during the spring not to see the field when the Fall rolls around. Bey will likely see the field in a running back and a receiver scenario. He is a solid freshman who has done a good job of working to make sure that the coaches have noticed him.

Question: Just how good is Anthony Thompson?
Answer: Projected as a "lottery pick" in 2027 by ESPN writer.

2027 NBA mock draft: Early projections for top 60 prospects​

With the 2026 NBA draft in the rearview and AJ Dybantsa, Darryn Peterson, Cameron Boozer & Co. off to the league, it's time to shift the focus ahead to 2027.

9. Washington Wizards​

Anthony Thompson, SF/PF, 6-9 | Age: 17.9
Freshman, Ohio State

Thompson is an excellent shooter with great size and length who can man either forward spot, fitting a valuable long-term NBA mold. Scouts want to see greater consistency and improved motor -- he missed the cut at Team USA's U18 trials in May -- but the demand for shooters with size keeps him front of mind as a player to watch in the fall.

Thompson is a good defensive playmaker who can cover ground and block shots with his length and anticipation. He's a bit stiff in his hips, limiting his ability to put the ball on the floor and create for himself. What type of season he puts together at Ohio State will dictate how high he can rise.

Just sayin': Now in all fairness, CBS Sports did not have him as a 1st round pick in their 2027 mock NBA draft.

He learned that from Hartline. Hartline learned Jeremiah Smith's native language at a young age in order to secure the commit.

The lawsuit points out that the plaintiffs don't challenge the concept of a defined eligibility period or the five-for-five rule itself.

“Rather, they challenge the NCAA’s application of the rule” that allows players they competed against from the high school class of 2017-20 and 2023-25 an additional year of competition while denying plaintiffs the same opportunity," the attorneys wrote. “The NCAA then compounded the problem by allowing former professional players to compete in their fifth year following high school graduation regardless of the number of professional games they had played, while denying plaintiffs the same opportunity for a fifth year of competition.”

Per Chad Simmons on Karlos May: Since the OV, things have shifted toward the Buckeyes… He announced his commitment on July 18, so there is still a ways to go, but it’s Ohio State 1 with the momentum ahead of Georgia.
Auburn, the in-state school, is not going to give up.

Ohio State 2029 WR Commit Austin Miller’s June Visit Confirmed the Buckeyes Are “Top of the Line at What They Do”​

Austin Miller always wanted to be a Buckeye; he just needed a trip to Columbus to confirm it.
When Ohio State hosted its final official visit weekend in June, the Buckeyes welcomed the elite 2029 prospect for a cross-country trip to Columbus.
The visit wasn't simply an opportunity for Miller and his family to see Ohio State up close. It was a chance to find out whether the program they had long dreamed about truly matched the image they had built in their minds.
It did.
"We had a plan coming into the visit; this was not a visit to see if I liked it or not, this was a visit to get the confirmation that this was the place for me," Miller told Eleven Warriors.
The clarity is why Miller felt comfortable committing to Ohio State so early in the process, as he has only played one season of high school football. For Miller, the decision centered on development – both on and off the field – and a belief in Ohio State’s proven track record under Ryan Day.

The head coach has emphasized that Ohio State should not only have the best players in the country, but the best coaches at every position. Miller believes that the standard is being met.
"Ohio State is the right place to develop me for the next level because every coach on the coaching staff and everyone who works in player development is top of the line at what they do."
That belief extends to wide receivers coach Cortez Hankton, who quickly made Miller a priority after arriving in Columbus in January. He is the first wide receiver to commit to Ohio State since Hankton replaced Brian Hartline – widely regarded as one of the nation’s top recruiters before leaving OSU to become the head coach at USF – and that early attention not only meant a lot, but was something Miller took notice of and appreciated.
"Being such a priority to coach Hankton so early in this 2029 class is a blessing to me because being his first Buckeye pledge since he got here from LSU was a huge deal to me," Miller said. "My relationship with Coach Hank is great, and what stands out about him as a coach is that he's always going to be real. He also invests time in his players, and he truly cares."
At 6-foot-5, 200 pounds, Miller already has a rare physical profile for his age, and it's easy for him to stand out and separate himself on the field. For comparison's sake, Ohio State freshman Chris Henry Jr. is 6-foot-5, 195 pounds and Jeremiah Smith is 6-foot-3, 223.
But it's not just his size that stands out. As a freshman, he had 35 catches for 609 yards and eight touchdowns while also adding 85 carries for 883 yards and 13 scores on the ground.

Winner: Bruce Thornton, The Ohio State University​

Now that the league has separated the draft into two nights, and the second round gets its own shine, the No. 31 pick has become quite an auction item. Teams want The Best Guy Who Wasn't Drafted in the First Round, and the defending champions held his rights.

Those New York Knicks traded the No. 31 pick, along with No. 55, to the Houston Rockets for Nos. 39 and 53, plus a second-rounder in 2029, according to reports. And the Rockets selected The Ohio State's Bruce Thornton, whose own bio describes him as "an all-time great dude." He is also a playmaking guard who fits well into a Houston system in need.

It's been a stunning college and pro career. It's meant paying a high physical price. Hang 'em up, Joey, you're already a legend and you sure as hell shouldn't need the money.

Interesting that the NFL is so interested in the integrity of the sport. Don't remember anything like this coming up when Harbaugh returned to the league,

Substitute “profitability” for “integrity” in any press release and you’ll have a more accurate view of what’s motivating their decision. Sports betting is a big business. The NFL isn’t going to do anything which could negatively impact that. Especially for a mid level player like Sorsby.
