Lol. Nobody cares anymore if you're only about the bag......just stop with the "after taking the necessary time and examining my options" bullshit.
Or the stories about how God made you make this choice. God would want you to be honest and there is nothing wrong with taking a job for higher pay. Just remember, wherever you go, you usually won't be able to tap your ruby slippers together and go back home. It ain't home no more.

Look Who's Transferring Now (The Portal)

Ohio State Buckeyes are showing interest in an experienced offensive weapon in the transfer portal

After making most of their additions in the winter transfer portal, the Ohio State Buckeyes can be choosy with who they want to add in the spring.

For the most part, the Buckeyes have focused on the offensive and defensive lines. Ohio State found two projected starters in the winter portal for the offensive line, Ethan Onianwa and Phillip Daniels. Depth on both of the lines is somewhere Ohio State has looked.

An interesting player has come to the surface who you wouldn’t expect the Buckeyes to be interested in.

According to On3’s Hayes Fawcett, Ohio State has reached out to BYU transfer WR/KR Keelan Marion. Marion entered the portal over the weekend after spending the last two seasons at BYU and the previous two seasons at UConn. Marion will have one year of eligibility left.

There is no shortage of playmakers for the Buckeyes, so this raised some eyebrows. Marion did have two kickoffs returned for a touchdown last season and averaged 26 yards a return. Ohio State may see the value there, where they have shifted players around the last couple of years.

Look Who's Transferring Now (The Portal)

Ohio State Buckeyes may have to beat out a major SEC program for a key transfer portal player

Though the Ohio State Buckeyes aren’t going to dip as heavily into the transfer portal as they did in the winter, they’re still looking to make some additions.

Following the spring, head coach Ryan Day said that the defensive line is one place the team would have to take a look at.

"I think we've got to take a hard look at it," Day said. "I don't think I have the answer right now. But we've got to look at it. It seemed to me like there was just a lot of knockback on the offensive side of the ball here. But then again, I don't want to make any judgments until I watch the film."

Ohio State set to host Georgia Southern DL Troy Pikes

According to Pete Nakos of On3, Ohio State will host Georgia Southern transfer DL Troy Pikes next weekend. Pikes visited Georgia this past week and is receiving interest from other schools, such as Ole Miss, South Carolina, and Maryland.

Ethan Stiles concluded his first NCAA Championships with a sixth-place finish and All-American honors.

Ethan Stiles – 149: All-American, sixth place
Stiles DEC Willie McDougald (Oklahoma) 6-4
Stiles MD Kyle Parco (Iowa) 8-0
Dylan D'Emilio (Ohio State) DEC Stiles 7-3
Stiles FALL Malyke Hines (Lehigh) 2:11
Stiles DEC Sammy Alvarez (Rider) 4-2
Shayne Van Ness (Penn State) FALL Stiles 1:57
Lachlan McNeil (North Carolina) DEC Stiles 8-4

Stiles finished his debut season at Oregon State with a 17-8 mark that saw multiple six-bout winning streaks across the 149-lb. and 157-lb. weight classes.
Really nice get in the portal, Stiles is a good one and has plenty of eligibility left. I would view this as basically getting D'Emilio back, but with 3 years left and more upside.

@MPhillips do you think we have a decent shot on Fishback? That would be another big one that could really pay off, kid is a stud.

Being a freak athlete is way better than being a football player. I think we can all agree with that.

Sounds like a bunch of BS to me anyways, if the kid is that much of a freak athlete with NFL measurables all around, with the portal he wouldn't have been at Princeton the last 3 years

:lol:


At 6-foot and 215 pounds, Volker has a unique blend of size and speed. Mike Fenske, who serves as an advisor to Volker, spoke with On3’s EJ Holland to detail that further.

“The thing that stands out is he’s a freak athlete,” Fenske said. “If you look at his running numbers, his 40, his vertical and his lifting numbers, he would be up there with anybody at this year’s NFL combine. He has a 40-inch vertical and a legitimate 4.4 40. He ran 4.4 in high school. He’s solid at 6-foot, 215 pounds. I think he’s going to surprise a lot of people.

The kid from Cincy will be their main back. They may be looking to make this kid their second back.

They just added a RB from PRINCETON as well. These late additions of below mid guys from Umass and the Ivy League can't mean good things for the RBs currently on their roster


His sophomore season (which he ended up redshirting) wasn't as productive, carrying the ball only 28 times and for 96 yards and two scores, but he really started to prove himself in his junior and senior seasons.

In Volker's third year at Princeton, he rushed 92 times for 438 yards and seven touchdowns. Then, as a senior, he ran for 514 yards on 89 carries for six touchdowns as he battled injuries throughout the season.

Injury prone and barely cracked 1,000 yards combined in 3 seasons in the Ivy League very impressive. on3 has him as the #126 ranked RB in the portal

Guy ran for 529 yards last year at Umass playing a MAC level schedule, he didn't break 100 yards in a single game one time, failed to reach even 50 yards 5 times. Of course DFBIA could twist that into him being some "Baby Saquon".

Their best RB in their spring game was a walk on though so maybe he is compared to the others at this point though.
The kid from Cincy will be their main back. The kid they got from Bama is probably RB2.
