Which Ohio State football players are you most excited to watch this season?

You ask, we answer. Sometimes we ask, others answer. And then other times, we ask, we answer.
Throughout the year, we will be asking and answering questions about various Ohio State teams, the players, and anything else on our collective minds of varying degrees of importance. If you have a question that you would like to ask, you can tweet us @LandGrant33 or if you need more than 280 characters, send an email HERE.
This week at LGHL is “Players to Watch Week”, so for our weekly fan survey, we are asking you which players you are most excited to watch this coming season. We have broken it down into two categories, returning starts and guys who didn’t start (at least not for OSU) last year.
Take a look at the options that we included and vote on where your heart is, but if there is someone you are uber-excited to watch that we didn’t include, head to the comments at the bottom of the page and let us know.
We will share the results, with some fly-looking graphics, later this week, so make sure you come back and check those out.
Despite the fact that it felt like everybody on the roster left for the NFL following the national championship season, there are still some very exciting players returning to the starting lineup, but the question is how do you define excitement in those circumstances?
Are you excited to see the returning excellence of Caleb Downs and Jeremiah Smith? Or are you excited to see what guys like Carson Hinzman, Tegra Tshabola, and Brandon Inniss can do with a bit more experience and opportunity.
I know that technically Inniss isn’t a returning starter, but given how much he played on special teams and how long he has been with the program, he felt like a better fit than in the next group.
Because of the aforementioned mass exodus to the NFL, there are many more guys to consider for this question. Of course, the obvious answer to this question would be the quarterback, so for fairness’ sake, I removed Julian Sayin from the conversation, but anyone else is open.
And, again, if there is something that you are looking forward to seeing that I didn’t include, please feel free to throw in his name in the comments.
Throughout the year, we ask questions of the most plugged-in Ohio State fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.

Ohio State rounds out roster with international guard Mathieu Grujicic
Jake Diebler and his staff are adding a tall, versatile guard as the last piece of the 2025-2026 roster.Ohio State is going the international route to round out the 2025-2026 roster, getting a commitment from Serbian guard Mathieu Grujicic today. Grujicic is a 6-foot-6, 205-pound guard who was born in Serbia but moved to Germany as a five-year-old and spent most of his life there.
Grujicic most recently played for FC Barcelona’s U18 team, averaging 8.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 4.0 assists per game for one of the highest-level programs in all of Europe.

Grujicic turned 18 on Monday, coincidentally, making him the same age as a college freshman, although he comes to America with far more experience than most players his age. The Ohio State coaching staff reportedly sees Grujicic as someone who will contribute right away this season, and although there may be a minor learning curve for the guard, they do not expect it to be long before he looks comfortable on the floor alongside guys like Bruce Thornton and John Mobley Jr.
Grujicic was selected as an All-Star at the 2025 NBA Basketball Without Borders Global Camp in February, showing off a blend of playmaking, scoring, three-point shooting, and defensive prowess during All-Star Weekend.
While he does intend on playing professionally at some point, the 18-year-old has opted to play college basketball before pursuing professional options. 247Sports reported in March that there were schools from the Big 12, ACC, and Big Ten all recruiting Grujicic. Louisville and Kansas State were two programs reportedly pursuing Grujicic this spring once he made it known he was going to play college basketball.
The Ohio State coaching staff expects him to play both guard spots as well as the combo guard/small forward position for the Buckeyes. He will provide bench depth behind Thornton and Mobley, and will compete with Taison Chatman and Gabe Cupps for backcourt minutes behind the starting guards. With Chatman and Cupps both coming off of serious lower-body injuries last season, Grujicic also provides something of an insurance policy in case either of those two guards isn’t 100% healthy.
As of now, Grujicic is expected to be the final addition to the 2025-2026 Ohio State roster. It’s not yet known if he will report to campus next month with the rest of the team or if he will be a late arrival, like Ivan Njegovan was last season.
Grujicic’s mother is French, and his father is Serbian. He spent much of his upbringing in Germany, while his mother worked at the French embassy in the German capital. He currently plays in Spain and speaks fluent Spanish, English, German, and French.
Just sayin': German, Serbian, French, Spanish....It sure sounds like he could be a basketball version of an "International Man of Mystery".

German Guard Mathieu Grujicic Commits to Ohio State
Ohio State adds to its backcourt and wing depth with the commitment of German guard Mathieu Grujicic.
German Guard Mathieu Grujicic Commits to Ohio State
Ohio State is bringing in international support for its guards and wings.
On Tuesday, German guard Mathieu Grujicic committed to the Buckeyes. He spent the majority of this past season playing for FC Barcelona II (Barca 2) in Spain.
Login to view embedded media
Grujicic is only 17 years old at the time of his commitment, though he will turn 18 in July. He averaged 12.9 points, 4.9 rebounds and two assists across 21 games for Barca 2 this past season, which plays in the fourth tier of Spanish professional basketball. He shot 48.5% from the field and 33.6% from 3.
Originally from Berlin, some of Grujicic's greatest accolades this past season came outside his main club. He played one game with Barca's U19 team, but it happened to be the Spanish U19 national championship game, and he posted 20 points to take home MVP honors. In the Adidas Next Generation Tournament this past February and May, he collected three 20-point games across seven appearances, averaging 14.1 points and 3.6 rebounds. He was the MVP of the Ulm qualifiers for that tourney.
Grujicic also earned MVP of FIBA's Basketball Without Borders camp in Europe, which featured 60 top young talents from 25 European countries. He also appeared in three games with FC Barcelona in the top tier of Spanish professional basketball, playing 14 total minutes.
