Gaige Weddle says his only two planned game day visits for now are Ohio State when we host Michigan and Utah because his dad is being inducted into the Hall of Fame. Says he would love to make it to games at UCLA and Cal as well and a visit to Miami is very unlikely.
He’s not expected to make stops at Georgia, BYU, USC or any other program he made game day visits to last season.

It’ll be a battle between the two schools for sure, Alex believes Ohio State is prepared to spend big at OT for this class as well.

Get back to me when his step-uncle announces.

Asher Ghioto says Ohio State has been recruiting him hard since the contact period for 2028 recruits opened up and he’s planning to make it to a game this fall.
He said NIL will be a small factor in his decision (starting to become the new “education matters”). Says he will go anywhere in the country, he doesn’t have to stay in Florida. Said he wants to go to a program that’s big on faith and will develop him on and off the field, as a NFL player and as a man. He wants a coach that will mentor him and prepare him for life after football.

Not entirely certain about this class, seems like most all of the QBs have a home somewhere else. He tried to get the Nebraska commit, but was rebuffed. Not certain if it's true, but have read that Day still wants Brady in this class. Kinda think the talk they had on Brady's visit kinda settled the waters between them. Guess Brady has to decide if he wants to be Captain of a destroyer, or be First Mate on a super carrier. (No offense intended to our Navy personnel on destroyers). Personally, am hoping Lincoln Keinholtz has an outstanding year at Louisville. Go Bucks

Well, OSU has their '26 QB, and they're favored for an elite '28 QB, so if they hit the Portal in '27 if Edmunds chooses UCLA then the Portal wouldn't be the worst option. Especially if TSC is as good as advertised and starts for 2yrs

How'd that work you for you, shit-for-brains?

Edit: I shouldn't be too hard on the dUMb player, he may be the best French-Fryer on his shift.

I'm sure I've said this in this thread but I was at this game and all of the tsun folks were chuckling when JT went down. I turned around to the guy behind me and said something to the effect of the two of them being very different QBs... Perhaps the only time in my life where I've been on the other end of a QB going down and a team not being prepared in the least for the change of pace with a new QB under center.

His brother, Chris, is obviously a Buckeye, but didn't I also read that his sister is on tOSU basketball team? Come on DeMarcus, join OUR family here in Columbus, as well as YOURS. That would give Diebs three young 5*s at once.

Looks like a solid compliment to 6'6" Elsa in the post. This is gonna be a team to enjoy. Final Four, here we come!

So I guess an NBA career is out of the question?

Since this is the Recruiting forum, would certainly like to have DGG signed up, would be an awesome Buckeye, but at the same time, it appears (to me at least) that the RB room isn't too shabby now anyway. There is a 1,000 yard rusher as a freshman, another two or three guys anxious for their turns at the position, and all are capable. Losing DGG might certainly hurt, but when the band aid is ripped off, the O would survive pretty well, methinks. Would not surprise me that the OLine will enable more holes/rushing yards this year than last, and wouldn't surprise me if tOSU totaled more than 2,000 yard on the ground this year. And as someone above so accurately pointed out, there's always the portal for an experienced RB after this season. And of course, the downside is that if DGG dons scarlet and gray, some of these up-and-comers will run for the portal. Seems to me to be a good position to be in. Go Bucks!

does anyone still have 2013 penn st and ttun games they deleated from my harddrive ccould also use 2012 season

Controversial umpire C.B. Bucknor taking buyout to retire after 2026 MLB season​

Bucknor often found himself at the center of criticism over his work behind the plate. Many routinely questioned his consistency, and for good reason. His accuracy behind the plate is said to be 92 percent, well below the MLB average, according to UmpScorecards.com.

In player surveys conducted by Sports Illustrated in 2003 and 2006, he was voted the worst umpire in MLB.

Just sayin': OK, who's sorry to see him finally go?

Why Ohio State has set the standard on how to use NIL in recruiting​

The Ohio State football program has done a good job of using NIL in this cycle of recruiting, and they have now set the standard for other programs.



The Ohio State football program struggled to adapt to NIL recruiting rules when they were first implemented. They were afraid to overspend, resulting in Ryan Day and his staff losing out on multiple elite recruits. It was a struggle to find the balance of the right amount of money while also making sure a recruit wasn't just committing for money.

Things have changed in the last couple of years. It has always been Day's philosophy not to overpay for high school recruits, instead preferring to play for proven talent in the Transfer Portal. That continues to be the case, but he has become less rigid when it comes to high school prospects.

In the 2027 recruiting class, the Ohio State Buckeyes have opted to pay several highly-touted recruits a substantial amount of money. Yet, they continue to refuse to overpay. They won't pay a ton of money for a high school player, no matter how highly they are ranked.

Ryan Day has figured out the proper way to use NIL funds in recruiting​

Take the case of David Gabriel Georges. He is the recruit whom the Buckeyes have spent the most time on in this cycle. It was reported that he could surpass $1 million in NIL money. However, Ohio State refuses to pay that much. In fact, they might barely pay half that amount.

Even with that huge difference in money between Ohio State and Tennessee, Gabriel Georges could still pick the Buckeyes over the Volunteers. That's because Ohio State has so much more to offer than just money. Day has done a good job of showing recruits that.

Day is willing to pay a premium for top-shelf talent, as long as it's clear money is the primary motivation for a high school recruit, and not money. Day wants to make sure that the high school prospect is more focused on being a team-first guy and is someone who wants to win.

Ohio State has found a good balance with its NIL spending​

The Buckeyes haven't been afraid to spend when it comes to DJ Jacobs or Marcus Fakatou. It seems they are willing to pay a lot for Gabriel Georges, as well. Monshun Sales' offer isn't small by any means, either. Day is willing to pay recruits more than he was a year ago.

Ross Bjork has helped greenlight the efforts to find more money for incoming recruits. While Ohio State sits just ninth in the recruiting rankings at the moment, those money efforts could give them an edge once December rolls around. They could have a top-five class by the time winter comes.

The Buckeyes bring in one of the best classes in the country almost every single year. That won't change in the 2027 class, and it looks like it won't change for the foreseeable future, either. The ability to not pay too much and still get the top recruits in the nation is the best balance in recruiting.

Ohio State has done a good job finding that balance.

Former OSU Buckeye to be named Louisville's QB1 any day now​

Surprisingly, Lincoln Kienholz hasn't been named Louisville's starting quarterback yet. Unsurprisingly, one Ohio State insider suggests that it'll come any day now.



The Louisville Cardinals' starting quarterback situation is technically fluid right now. With that said, Jeff Brohm is likely to land on his guy soon. That guy is almost certainly going to be former Ohio State Buckeyes QB Lincoln Kienholz.

As Bucknuts' Patrick Murphy notes, Kienholz being one of Brohm's selected representatives at ACC media day is likely a sign that the 4-star T.F. Riggs (SD) product will get the nod under center from the jump.

"It would be a major surprise if Kienholz were not named the Cardinals' starting quarterback heading into the 2026 season. His competition is West Georgia transfer Davin Wydner and true freshman Briggs Cherry, neither of whom has the Power Four-level experience Kienholz has. Head coach Jeff Brohm spoke positively about Kienholz throughout the spring, highlighting his athleticism and how Louisville can use a quarterback like him in his offense. Kienholz was recently named one of the Cardinals' three representatives for ACC Kickoff, an indication of his early standing within the program," Murphy wrote.

Kienholz has had a great spring in Louisville, completing 10/16 of his pass attempts during the spring game. He comes to the Cards with three valuable seasons in Ryan Day's system and using the Woody Hayes Athletic Center to sharpen his skills and get his strength up to snuff.

On paper, Kienholz is a perfect fit. Brohm certainly thinks so, having sung Kienholz's praises back in February before he even got an extended look at the QB.

“Lincoln brings us a dimension we have not had here before. He’s a very good athlete,” Brohm told the media in February. “He shows that every day, even now, up until this point. He can throw the football as well; he’s had to sit back and watch and learn…he knows his time is now. We’re going to work very hard to help him play his best football as we get going into the season.”

Lincoln Kienholz will be an easy ex-Buckeye to cheer for​

There's no doubt that Kienholz needed to leave Columbus. Not because he wasn't as well-liked as he is now in the Bluegrass State. Kienholz was just as beloved in Central Ohio, if anything, and it was tough to see him go.

Jus sayin': He falls in the category of "once a Buckeye, always a Buckeye", not "ex-Buckeye"; regardless, he definitely would be easy to cheer for.
