Just sayin': Just an amazing coaching job this year and it shows the depth that Ohio state had with numerous players really stepping up to fill almost 2/3 of the starting positions

At the end of last season (and Ohio State had 14 players drafted by the NFL) who really believed that the 2025 team might be even better than the team that just won the national Championship?

WR Emeka Egbuka – 1st Round, No. 19 Overall / Tampa Bay Buccaneers
OL Donovan Jackson – 1st Round, No. 24 Overall / Minnesota Vikings
DT Tyleik Williams – 1st Round, No. 28 Overall / Detroit Lions
OT Josh Simmons – 1st Round, No. 32 Overall / Kansas City Chiefs
RB Quinshon Judkins – 2nd Round, No. 36 Overall / Cleveland Browns
RB TreVeyon Henderson – 2nd Round, No. 38 Overall / New England Patriots
DE JT Tuimoloau – 2nd Round, No. 45 / Indianapolis Colts
LB Cody Simon – 4th Round, No. 115 Overall / Arizona Cardinals
SAF Lathan Ransom – 4th Round, No. 122 Overall / Carolina Panthers
DE Jack Sawyer – 4th Round, No. 123 Overall / Pittsburgh Steelers
DT Ty Hamilton – 5th Round, No. 148 Overall / Los Angeles Rams
CB Jordan Hancock – 5th Round, No. 170 Overall / Buffalo Bills

Lol Ped State failing to hire a coach still, meanwhile their recruiting class is now down to FIVE players. They are essentially going to miss out on almost an entire HS class.

So now you are going to have (in no particular order)

MSU
tsun
Iowa
Minny
Wisky
Northwestern
Illinois
Nebraska

All basically be the same team, with the same style and the same kind of coach just fluctuating talent/experience on the roster in any given year.

We should go back to divisions and call this one the plain, cold oatmeal division.

Yawn

As long as OSU keeps Henry and the kid from Texas, they should be good.

The issue I see is I don't think Hartline can guarantee he will be around to the kids he recruits any longer.

Ryan Day said that very thing in multiple interviews from last spring through the summer.

This season you hear the word efficiency coming from players and coaches after every game. I believe this is the mantra/slogan/concept that coach Day can use as both motivation and explanation to every member of the organization. I think he can hang his legacy on that one word. I would not be sad to see OSU become known as Thee Ohio State University of Efficiency! Regardless of my frivolous conjecture, whatever is working, may it continue unabated throughout his tenure.

Yep. Say what you want about Hoke, but he always had those fuckers ready play when it came to The Game. Even when they were dogshit the rest of the season.
