Under the new NCAA rules in 2025, football teams are only allowed to have 105 players. In addition, they can also have 105 football players on scholarship. Undoubtedly all 105 players will be on scholarship. I just wonder if Ohio State has made a decision as to how many of the 105 scholarships needs to dedicated to what positions to maintain adequate depth at all the positions; and there just wouldn't be room for some of the (current) walk-ons, etc. Hence, they are now moving on looking for an opportunity/scholarship elsewhere.

I think that's the new landscape of CFB. I mentioned in another thread, this could be a good thing for smaller schools. It will make the lower divisions and conferences that much more competitive

The Masters 2025

As far as the knockers hit it these days, Rory seemed to match DeChambeau yard for yard, don't see the concentration levels etc of a Jack Nicklaus. Jack (and Trevino etc) seemed to be honed in. Rory (to me at least), seems to be a 'pleaser', which the game needs, giving him a more friendly aspect. Certainly, the game of golf has its ups and downs (per hole, as well as a round). Rory was able to work through, and persevere. More power to him. Believe heard the announcers say he's one of the few (Jack, Tiger, etc) that have won all four of the major championships (Masters, US Open, British Open, and PGA). Not certain if they meant in their lifetime, or in one year. Anyway, kudos to this young man.

Only six golfers have won all four of golf's modern majors at any time during their careers, an achievement which is often referred to as a Career Grand Slam: Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods, and Rory McIlroy. Woods and Nicklaus have won each of the four majors at least three times.

Nobody has won all 4 major tournaments in the same calendar year. However, Tiger Woods did win 4 in a row over a 2 year period:

Tiger Woods is the only player to have held all four major titles (Masters, Open, US Open, and PGA Championship) simultaneously. This achievement, known as the "Tiger Slam," occurred between 2000 and 2001.

Oh I agree, had to let him walk. But its still a true statement that the team is now worse off and will regress mightily next season.

I can't help but laugh at schools throughout the country losing some of their best players to the Portal, and OSU is the defending champs and losing walk ons. The vetting by the OSU coaches is very underrated, Julian Sayin was rated every bit as high as Nico, yet no one has heard a peep of him ever wanting to transfer

Yeah, "character" can be just as important as "physical/athletic abilities"; Ohio State coaches are obviously looking for both.

I agree they do suck right now but I think Haire was a good hire. It's just residual damage from the Beals era plus the Mosiello disaster

Yea this season is a wreck but I think anyone we hired was going to have a hard time this season considering the circumstances they were coming into. I give Haire a break for this year but we do need to see sizeable improvement next season

Caffey joins wide receiver Reis Stocksdale, punter Anthony Venneri and long snapper Morrow Evans as walk-ons who have entered the transfer portal from Ohio State following spring practice. One week into the post-spring transfer window, which will close at the end of the day Friday, Ohio State still has not lost any scholarship players to the portal.

That's likely true, but what was Tennessee supposed to do? Pay him 4 mil to be average? Bend over every time a player demands more money?
