'25 OH SG Dorian Jones (Rutgers Verbal)

Well it seems like this ship has sailed. I doubt Jones will ever enroll at OSU now that he has reopened his recruitment due to academics. Some have said it could be a 1-year prep school thing & he could try and come back to OSU, but college teams generally aren't gonna just hold a scholarship open for a kid in the hopes that he will academically qualify eventually.

QB1 Will Howard (National Champion, Pittsburgh Steelers)

Caught a quick listen to a snip from Zach Smith who said that it’s sounding like Will is balling out in OTAs. Stoked to hear that. Hope he keeps it going like that.
As a Browns fan, this pisses me off. Those fuckers find a way to win with Kenny Pickett. They find a way to make Russell Wilson look good, again. They find a way to turn a blocked field goal into a made field goal (that one goes back to 2002).
The Browns get Johnny Manziel. They find a way to get rid of Baker Mayfield and turn an all-pro quarterback into a Browns quarterback. I've got to look forward to Deion Jr and Dillon Gabriel.
Seriously, though, I'll probably always like Howard. I hope he does well, but finds a way to win with another team, somehow.

2025 scUM Shenanigans, Arguments - NCAA: no wins taken away, no postseason ban

I would just wait until tomorrow, fire everyone who's name shows up in the report, and have enough Pinkertons standing by to make sure they were all off campus by close of business.
What better way to distance yourself from Ono than to cut ties with all he stood for pretended to stand for?
Seriously, if I'm in a spot to take over for someone who landed my organization in hot water, I'm getting rid of anyone who might be associated with the previous dude and with whatever put us in that situation as soon as I possibly can. (Not that anyone is dumb enough to put me in a position like that.)

Offers are starting to roll in for the son of former Ohio State captain Jason Singleton.

It was a long time coming, but on Wednesday, Jason Singleton finally earned a scholarship offer from the program he’s been following his entire life. Ohio State has been keeping tabs on Singleton for some time now, but the rising senior and three-star guard announced Wednesday that he officially was offered an athletic scholarship by Jake Diebler and the Ohio State men’s basketball program.


After a great visit I’m extremely blessed to have received a division one offer from @OhioStateHoops! Huge thanks to @JakeDiebler, Coach Dickerson, and the rest of the staff! I’m extremely grateful for this opportunity! #AGTG pic.twitter.com/pdG8FAXUf4

Singleton is a 6-foot-4, 175-pound guard and is currently listed as the No. 175 player in the nation, the No. 17 combo guard in the 2026 class, and the seventh-best player in the state of Ohio. The Buckeyes are the fifth power conference school to offer Singleton, following Nebraska, Creighton, Xavier, and DePaul — coached by former Ohio State head man Chris Holtmann. Singleton has also received offers from Ohio, Miami (OH), Dayton, Davidson, Detroit Mercy, Eastern Michigan, Harvard, and Yale.

247Sports National Basketball Director Eric Bossi recently described Singleton, the son of former Ohio State captain Jason Singleton, one of the “fastest rising players in the class of 2026.” Bossi also noted that Singleton has a chance to crack the top-150 as he continues to ascend.

The leader of Columbus Academy’s state runner-up team this past season, Singleton helped lead the Vikings to a 28-1 record and a run all the way to the Division-V state championship game this past season, falling to Cleveland Lutheran Heights in the final game of the year. It was the school’s first state title game appearance since 1981. Singleton finished with 27 points and nine rebounds in the title game.

Despite consistent production for Columbus Academy, Singleton’s recruiting rankings have lagged behind, likely because of the quality of his opponents in the Central Buckeye League. However, if you can play, they will find you, and big-time programs are starting to find him.

He holds offers from Ohio State and Nebraska out of the Big Ten, but Northwestern has also been sniffing around. Creighton and DePaul out of the Big East have both offered. Singleton could get an elite education and potentially play in March Madness if he picks Harvard or Yale.

Even though he describes guys like Michael Redd and Scoonie Penn as “uncles” and grew up watching Ohio State football and basketball, that does not mean the Ohio State offer wraps up his recruitment. The 2026 Ohio State backcourt already a bit crowded, and the availability of minutes could play a role in his decision.

John Mobley Jr. has two more years of eligibility after this season, and will hold down a starting spot until he graduates or leaves for the NBA. Taison Chatman and Gabe Cupps both have multiple years of eligibility left, and will be fighting for big-time minutes in 2026 when Bruce Thornton graduates. Serbian freshman guard Mathieu Grujicic, who committed to Ohio State earlier this week, has four years of eligibility. Four-star guard Marcus Johnson, the No. 30 player in the 2026 class, has been committed to Ohio State for over a year now.

Singleton has not laid out a timeline of when he will make a decision or cut down any type of list of finalists. There’s a growing crowd of suitors for the tall combo guard, but a Singleton wearing an Ohio State jersey under the bright lights just seems right.

2025 scUM Shenanigans, Arguments - NCAA: no wins taken away, no postseason ban

If you were UMs interim president wouldn’t you call your ad in and have a come to Jesus meeting the day before the sixth and ask what was going to happen, what revealed, and what the ad intended to do, say? Really puts the interim in bad spot career wise.
I would just wait until tomorrow, fire everyone who's name shows up in the report, and have enough Pinkertons standing by to make sure they were all off campus by close of business.
