Land-Grant Holy Land is looking to hire new contributors ahead of football season
Matt Tamanini via our friends at Land-Grant Holy Land
Visit their fantastic blog and read the full article (and so much more) here
If you can write, know college football, and love Ohio State, this might be the perfect paid opportunity for you.
Believe it or not, the reigning national champion Ohio State Buckeyes will return to the practice field in just over two weeks as fall camp will kick off on Thursday, July 31. From there, it is less than a month before OSU kicks off its title defense against the Texas Longhorns.
So, as we approach the season, we here at Land-Grant Holy Land are looking to round out our roster of incredible Buckeye bloggers with another talented contributor. We are looking for someone with excellent writing skills, a vast understanding of the sport of football, and a passion for Ohio State.
Additionally, members of the LGHL staff should also have a unique viewpoint on college sports, a willingness to discuss both the good and bad moments in OSU’s season, and the ability to take their work (but not themselves) seriously. Land-Grant Holy Land has long looked to elevate the voices of all different types of Ohio State fans, and we continue to prize people who bring unique perspectives and insights into the game.
If you are an Ohio State fan and enjoy writing and talking about all things Buckeyes, this could be the perfect paid opportunity for you!
The writer roles will provide anywhere from one to three weekly articles covering Ohio State athletics. The focus for this position will primarily be football, with the opportunity to write about other sports as well.
Ideally, we are looking for someone with enough football knowledge to break down offensive and defensive plays, schematics, and fundamentals, while explaining them in relative layman's terms for Buckeye fans who don’t have technical football backgrounds.
We are also looking for someone to write nuanced and out-of-the-box columns about Ohio State football and other sports that go in different directions from the traditional articles that you find across the Buckeye beat.
However, we are open to any and all applicants with strong writing skills, a creative approach to thinking about Ohio State sports, and a sense of humor.
This role is a contract role and is compensated with a monthly stipend. The amount will be determined by your experience level and how many articles per week you write. However, think of this in terms of beer and pizza money, instead of rent money.
Additionally, if you are interested in podcasting, there are opportunities for additional stipends there as well.
Our best candidates will:
To apply, please submit a brief introduction about yourself detailing why you’re the best person for the role, a resume showcasing any previous writing and/or digital media experience, and one writing sample showing what you can do in this role. You must submit all items to be considered for this opportunity.
All items should be submitted to Matt Tamanini, Land-Grant Holy Land’s co-managing editor, by Sunday, July 27 at 11:59 p.m. ET. Please email the materials to [email protected]. Please headline the email as “Land-Grant Holy Land: Writer application.”
Vox Media, SB Nation, and Land-Grant Holy Land are committed to bringing you coverage of the Buckeyes from a diverse array of voices and perspectives. If your experience and background do not perfectly align with every single thing we’re looking for, but you believe you have the ability to thrive in this role, we encourage you to apply!

MLB/MiLB Buckeyes (Official Thread)

FUTURE BIG-LEAGUERS FROM THE BUS? Two Ohio State baseball players were selected in the 2025 MLB draft this week, one former and one (now potentially) future.
First, the Chicago White Sox took pitcher Blaine Wynk No. 226 overall in the eighth round. Wynk was a third-team All-Big Ten selection in 2024, posting a 3.38 ERA with two saves and 38 strikeouts in 40 innings of relief work. Injuries held him to just five appearances in 2025, where he struggled.
Then, in the 17th round, the Detroit Tigers selected pitcher Joey Wimpelberg. Wimpelberg spent the past two seasons at the JUCO level with the College of Central Florida, then committed to the Buckeyes to continue his college career this offseason. He'll now have a choice of whether to stick at the NCAA ranks or go pro.
Lastly, infielder Tyler Pettorini signed on as an undrafted free agent with the Philadelphia Phillies. Here's hoping all the Buckeyes pursuing the big leagues make their dreams come true!

C.J. IS CRYING, I'M CRYING, WE'RE ALL CRYING. C.J. Stroud fulfilled the wish of a very deserving Houston Texans fan.
John Sperring, a 12-year-old, went through a bigger health crisis in the first weeks of his life than some will experience in the entirety of theirs. Right before his parents were going to take him home from the hospital after his birth, a nurse noticed an anomaly with his heart and summoned a cardiologist.
John was diagnosed with hypoplastic left heart syndrome. The left side of his heart had not developed properly and wasn't pumping enough blood to the rest of his body. Through an emergency open-heart surgery, by some miracle, he survived. His chest is still cracked open.
After several more surgeries, John is living a happy life, but may still need a heart transplant for his long-term survival. Despite his great love for sports, his heart condition prevents him from playing. But for a day, he was a Houston Texan. And Stroud made sure he was that day's most important one.
Despite hailing from Dallas, John's view of Houston's NRG Stadium from his hospital window made him a Texans fan. His wish, though My Wish, was to meet Stroud.
After being surprised at a local gaming center that his wish would come true, John received an official invitation from the Texans to come to their stadium. Once there, he was gifted with four gift bags loaded with team gear before Stroud met him with an excited "John!"
Stroud took John on a personal tour of the stadium and through a photoshoot with he and other Texans. Then the two had a conversation on a golf cart as they were heading to Houston's practice.
