Just getting back....wondering if tOSU's sign-up policy is backfiring on them. Low entry NIL, and gets bigger as one performs...appears that we're losing the back-ups that are expected to move into the two -deep. Also, that this portal entrying may be a ploy to force tOSU into paying them more money now, rather than waiting. To see some of these guys bolt, with the prospect of playing next year very real, is/has gotta be disheartening for Day & Co (as certainly is for armchair coaches like me). Am certainly not in the know, so merely hypothicating as to why. Please direct me to any thread that puts this out there.....PS, do see how some of the guys want to 'get theirs' now, rather than putting in the time, when the Buckeyes then recruit players, either HS or portal, over them. Appears we've lost most of our back-up WRs, DBs, and RBs.
