Can this be an OHIO STATE license plate of some kind.

Gemini says:

Based on its design, colors, and dimensions, this is a 1914 Ohio motorcycle license plate.

Here are the specific details that identify it:

  • Jurisdiction & Year: In 1914, the state of Ohio issued motorcycle plates with this specific orange-on-white color scheme.
  • Design: The "OH" stacked vertically on the left was the standard abbreviation used by Ohio for motorcycle plates during that era.
  • Material: These plates were made of porcelain-enameled steel, which gives them that distinct glossy, heavy finish and embossed look visible in the photo.
  • Size: You can see from the ruler at the bottom that the plate is approximately 8 inches wide. This smaller size (compared to a standard 12-inch car plate) confirms it was intended for a motorcycle.
During the early 20th century, license plate colors changed every year to help police quickly identify if a vehicle's registration was current. These porcelain plates are highly collectible today because they don't rust or fade as easily as the stamped metal plates that followed.
Thanks for the effort. Running with this and will report back.

Mayhaps he's getting in some court time, and back in portal after a 19 ppg, 9 rebs year. Getting recruited, or portaled over gives one an indication that he's good enough to come in, but not get heavy minutes. Heck, I'd skedaddle too. Doubt that MAC money is equal to what he's getting at tOSU, but we all love to play the game, not watch from the pine.

Kyle Snyder (World Champion, NCAA Champion, OLYMPIC GOLD MEDALIST, 2018 AAU Sullivan Award Winner)

Snyder was down 6-0 late in the 2nd period, and 6-1 after 2. Broke his opponent to comeback to win 12-6 and retain his light heavyweight title. Loudest crowd I've heard for an RAF match - lots of USA chants when he was making his surge.

Lance Palmer also wrestled and won earlier on the card, but I did not get a chance to see it.

What are you currently watching on TV?

Just watched How I Met Your Mother for the first time (I know it started like 20 years ago but I didn't see it until now). First episode incorporated the Ickey Shuffle and kept my interest piqued until I starting enjoying it a few episodes in. Lined up exactly with my age in those years, and could relate to many of the scenes. Binged through all 9 seasons. Main character routinely wore an Ohio State shirt. Barney character executed fantastically by Neil Patrick Harris. I could never get into Friends after giving it many chances, but I really enjoyed this show.
