I think there's an elimination clause for folks who pick against the buckeyes.

Early first round money is what, 20-30 million? And from what recollect, mostly guaranteed? Even taking away 10% for an agent, still leaves a bunch to invest/bank. Hopefully these kids get a NFL lesson on spending, as the NIL Lambo's are staying in state with the college team. After the obligatory new house for M&D, and hopefully, hire an honest business manager, should set up for future. NFL career lengths vary, but are woefully short - injury, next-best-thing, drafted over, etc. Maybe there was a college class on 'handling money 101' for NIL cash?

This shouldn't even be a decision. I'd love for him to come back. Would beg for it.

He absolutely shouldn't come back unless he's getting bad NFL feedback. Day should lock his ass out of the Woody.

Replace the Jets stuff with OSU imagery.

Ryan Day likes (7) TE sets now, and we couldn’t make Royer work out. Incredible.

I do. Cause all he had to do was not sign the contract. Don't want to be there don't sign it.

He’s a safety ..5-10 is where can go in the draft. He won’t be on a poor team.

It would be an all time level shocker if he did.

He's the best player I've seen in college so he has nothing left to prove at this level

Is Desmond Williams supposed to be the depth piece? Spending $12M on two starting QBs for 1 year seems so lane kiffin.

Because you're only young once and had the rest of his life to work for a living. He's playing for a living in college and loves emerge he's at. Sometimes you can't put a price on that. Actually getting a grip while he's doing it also is certainly a huge bonus

In-State IOL offer Davis Seaman tells Greg Smith that Auburn and PSU are recruiting him the hardest. PSU would make sense as Matt Campbell is an OH guy.
I was curious if we were still pushing here since we already have 3 IOL committed. Doesn’t sound like we are. I believe Bowen will take two pure OTs and one more swing guy.

After naming Bama and OSU his top2 a month ago, IOL Reed Ramsier now has a top3 of FL, Miami, and Auburn.
Similar to Davis Seaman that I shared above, I think we're set at IOL and moved on. I'm still expecting us to spend big for a 5*-type OT, and an additional OT (such as Kalis or Johnson), and possibly another swing player.

Why in the world would he come back?

ITA Team rankings are set to release today.
Buckeyes should be top 5 based on fall performances, new additions and some crazy quality of depth.

What is the UW coach going to do though?

Fight it all you want, it isn’t indentured servitude. You can’t make him stay and play for you. (And why would you want a guy playing that is being forced to?)

If another company is willing to pay the penalty for breaking the contract, that’s the end of the story.
