Look Who's Transferring Now (The Portal)

There are so many studs in the portal that could be instant impact players at OSU without breaking the bank…

I put a lot of trust in Mark Pantoni, so let’s give him some space to work…..I hope. His job is more important than ever before.

I’ve got a list of incredible players that produced at lower levels that wouldn’t cost much.

I assume Mark Pantoni is all over this.

I hope….

2025-2026 Ohio State Men's Basketball

So with the Buckeyes winning at Rutgers for their second B1G road win of the season, let's compare to last season a bit: OSU did not get their second conference road win until January 21st, and finished the season with 4 B1G road wins. Nothing seems to come easy for these guys, but they just have to do a little bit better than last season overall to make the NCAA tournament. So if they can up that B1G road win total by a couple, that would be a real step forward. They have some winnable road games left - Oregon, Washington, Maryland and PSU, so they have a real chance if they can find a way to win most of those games and then maybe sneak one that nobody is expecting.

Look Who's Transferring Now (The Portal)

Ok so people use numbers to be scary sometimes but let's think about this.

136 teams in FBS
105 players per team by rule
14,280 players
3,300 in portal now, could go up could stay flat, who knows?

That is 2.3% of the population. Sound a lot less eyeball grabbing that way doesn't it? Every team might not have the full 105? Ok, fine, fucking double it (you'd be over estimating) but let's double it.

"Over 95% of the D1 football players in 2025 are staying with their team" just doesn't have that same-whiny ass, look how bad everything is, the sport is collapsing, let's get the government involved, please click on my click bait- ring to it now does it?

MEANWHILE.....

32 head coaches changed jobs in the 136 team FBS universe.
That's 24% for those keeping score at home

but let's keep this tired ass narrative focused on the athletes that actually do the work, take the physical punishment and provide the fucking entertainment....somethings gotta be done!!! They are ruining the sport!!!
And then add the freshmen recruits.

Ohio State @ Rutgers, Friday Jan. 2, 8pm EST, Peacock

Good road win! Still think Diebler needs to stick with 8 man rotation unless he needs to use the bench for foul situations. Mobley and Bynum, while they do need occasional breaks, shouldn’t spend more than 2 minutes each half on the bench. Just my opinion. While Mobley may be a liability on D at times, we get absolutely no offensive output from the couple they bring off the bench.
