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

With #1 QB Christopher Vargas on campus today throwing in 7-7, I think the Buckeyes should try to close the deal with him. It's been reported before that we were his leader-now you get to throw to CHJ, Jamier, Jett, Boyd etc. I mean buddy don't overthink this one.

Fong Bomb for Jett Harrison to Ohio State

Who would have thought.
Harrison just talked to Chad Simmons about his recruitment so likely he told him it's going to be the Buckeyes unless Ryan Day isn't there. The old man in the WHAC a few weeks ago told us all we needed to know

Not exactly. He just started at tOSU, not his career. It's just that he's now on the 'big stage' at tOSU, and believe there's more eyes on Buckeye Nation than LSU. Day chose him for a reason, now all he has to do is prove he can do it here....Go Bucks!

NFL voices support for "the voluntary pooling of media rights under the Sports Broadcasting Act" that B1G/SEC oppose in its current form

Tomateaux Quinoa Gumbeaux

The two biggest conferences in college sports released a statement Tuesday saying they do not support the current version of a bipartisan bill designed to regulate an industry struggling for answers in a quickly changing era in which some players make millions.

The SEC and Big Ten conferences said the "bill leaves critical issues unresolved," including not "meaningfully" preempting state laws with a federal one, which has long been considered a key element for a measure to get support from the NCAA and the conferences.

In an interview last week, Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, who drafted the bill with Sen. Maria Cantwell, D-Wash., told The Associated Press "the bill is drafted to preempt state laws that conflict with the provisions in this bill."

The bill, called the Protect College Sports Act, would provide the NCAA with an antitrust exemption to enforce several rules that have been recently challenged in court, including limiting transfers and athlete eligibility and prohibiting schools from poaching a coach during the season.

The SEC-Big Ten statement came out less than 24 hours before a scheduled hearing about the bill in front of the Senate Commerce Committee. Cruz chairs the panel and Cantwell is the ranking Democrat.

The legislation has received support from the Big 12 and ACC, but the Big Ten and SEC, as the two richest leagues that also have decision-making power over the future of the College Football Playoff, hold the biggest cards.

One of the bill's key provisions would give conferences an option to pool their media rights, an idea the Big Ten and SEC have long claimed would not result in a financial windfall that proponents suggest. The leagues' statement did not speak to that issue.

A spokesperson for the Commerce Committee acknowledged the Big Ten-SEC position.

The Associated Press contributed to this report.

The NFL, its union and the National Basketball Players Association on Tuesday sent statements to Congress supporting the Protect College Sports Act and lauding specific provisions it includes while also encouraging further "negotiations" during the legislative process. The NFL voiced its support for "the voluntary pooling of media rights under the Sports Broadcasting Act," which is something the SEC and Big Ten have opposed.

The professional voices lend credence to the bill at a critical time, as the Senate commerce committee is expected to vote on it following a markup on Thursday. Before the legislation goes to the Senate floor for a vote, the commerce committee has to advance the bill. Thursday's markup gives the committee members an opportunity to offer amendments to it before they vote.

"Healthy, stable, and thriving collegiate athletics is essential to the future of American sports, including Olympic sports, and this legislation is an important step to achieving that for the benefit of all college athletes and institutions alike," the NFL's statement read, according to a copy obtained by ESPN. "By utilizing proven models like the voluntary pooling of media rights under the Sports Broadcasting Act, which supports broad, fan-friendly distribution of NFL games, this legislation will support college athletics and ensure fans will be able to access their favorite games across today's changing media landscape."
The bipartisan bill -- which was drafted by Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, with Sen. Maria Cantwell, D-Wash. -- would provide the NCAA with an antitrust exemption to enforce several rules that have been recently challenged in court, including limiting transfers and athlete eligibility and prohibiting schools from poaching a coach during the season.

The players' associations for the NFL and the NBA jointly stated: "the bill includes several important provisions designed to protect college athletes, including guaranteeing NIL rights and providing medical and healthcare benefits. We encourage continued meaningful stakeholder engagement and negotiations to further strengthen the bill as it moves through Congress to ensure college athletes are protected and empowered."

A majority of commerce committee members need to vote in favor of the bill for it to advance, which means 15 of the 28 committee members need to approve it, regardless of political party. (There are 15 Republicans and 13 Democrats in the group.)

The bill has received support from the Big 12 and the ACC. But earlier this month, the Big Ten and the SEC released a statement saying they did not support the last version of the bill because it left "critical issues unresolved," including not "meaningfully" preempting state laws with a federal one.

Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti and SEC commissioner Greg Sankey did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The NFL stated it "looks forward to continue working with Congressional leaders as this bill moves through the legislative process."

2028 PA WR Jett Harrison (Verbal Offer)

calibuck
That sounds way cool. I am also (anxiously) waiting to see how the WR play unfolds for the Buckeyes. With Sayin tossing the rock, and Jeremiah making acrobatic catches, looks solid. Hopefully Henry will seamlessly join the party, and Inness doing his thing as well. Now Tavian, you gotta up your game to step in this merry-go-round and keep it going. Go Bucks!

2027 TN RB David Gabriel Georges (Verbal Offer)

calibuck
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.

2028 PA WR Jett Harrison (Verbal Offer)

Per 11w poster:
Ohio State is battling Miami and Oregon for Jett Harrison, mainly Oregon. NIL is said to be a bigger priority for him than it was for Marv Jr., which makes sense given that NIL was in its baby stage back then and Marv Jr. wasn’t as big a prospect as Jett is.

I still think Jett will be a Buckeye as long as the WR play doesn’t regress badly and we come reasonably close to what Oregon will offer him. I believe Marv Sr. just spent a week at Ohio State.

A couple notes on Brysen Wright and Jett Harrison from a USC insider, he says Jett is their #1 target in the class and they’re prepared to spend big to try and land him.

Said USC is not involved with Brysen Wright because he’s hyper focused on 3-4 schools right now. Didn’t name the schools but from reports it’s clearly Ohio State and Miami with Texas and Florida trailing way behind.

Said he doesn’t believe any school will be able to pay the price tag to land both, which makes sense.
