Five-Star Guard Darryn Peterson Picks Kansas Over Ohio State
Ohio State made a push for Darryn Peterson late but it was not meant to be.
The five-star prospect ranked No. 3 in the country and No. 1 at combo guard chose Kansas over the Buckeyes, Kansas State and USC, his other three finalists.
Jake Diebler and the program still hold pledges from four-star guard Dorian Jones and four-star power forward A'mare Bynum in the 2025 recruiting class. Ohio State will likely try to add one to two more prospects alongside them.

Carsyn Baker puts OSU in top 13
*Takes a deep breath.*I know, I know, nobody gets all that excited to read about a recruit’s top 13 schools. But we’ll briefly run through four-star 2026 Georgia running back Carsyn Baker’s loaded list regardless.
The 6-foot-1, 195-pound Baker released a top 15 Sunday consisting of Ohio State, Louisville, Penn State, Ole Miss, Pitt, Miami, South Carolina, Auburn, Texas A&M, Kentucky, Tennessee, USC and Alabama.
Baker is rated the No. 329 prospect and the No. 26 running back in the 2026 class. He earned his Ohio State offer following an impressive recruiting camp performance in June, leading running backs coach Carlos Locklyn to offer him a scholarship to play for the Buckeyes.

Jonathon Cooper Signs Four-Year, $60 Million Contract Extension with Denver Broncos

The Denver Broncos gave one pass-rusher from Ohio State a big contract extension while sending another to the Arizona Cardinals.
Jonathon Cooper became the latest NFL Buckeye to cash in with a big contract extension as he signed a four-year, $60 million deal with the Broncos that includes $33 million guaranteed, according to multiple reports.
The news of his contract extension broke just minutes after the Broncos agreed to a trade with the Arizona Cardinals to send Baron Browning to Arizona in exchange for a sixth-round pick.
The Broncos selected both Cooper and Browning in the 2021 NFL draft. Browning was a third-round pick while Cooper was a seventh-round selection, but Cooper has been the more productive player in Denver. Three-and-a-half seasons into their NFL careers, Cooper has recorded 193 tackles with 18.5 sacks in 56 games while Browning has recorded 114 tackles with 9.5 sacks in 43 games.
With both set to become free agents next offseason, the Broncos decided to make sure Cooper would stick around as a long-term building block of their defense while moving on from Browning.
Cooper, who was a defensive end at Ohio State but plays as an outside linebacker in Denver‘s 3-4 defense, joins a list of former OSU defensive linemen who have inked big contracts in recent years that includes Nick Bosa (five-year, $170 million contract in 2023), Joey Bosa (five-year, $135 million contract in 2020), Dre’Mont Jones (three-year, $51 million contract in 2023), Cameron Heyward (three-year, $45 million contract in 2024), Sam Hubbard (four-year, $40 million contract in 2021) and DaVon Hamilton (three-year, $34.5 million contract in 2023).

Just sayin': Not bad for a 7th round draft pick.

Re: Lattimore leaves a team that‘s just 2-7 this season to go to a 7-2 team in WashingtonNew Orleans Saints Trade Former Ohio State Cornerback Marshon Lattimore to Washington Commanders

Marshon Lattimore is changing teams for the first time in his NFL career.
The former Ohio State cornerback is headed to the Washington Commanders, who agreed to a trade a few hours before the NFL’s trade deadline to acquire the four-time Pro Bowler from the New Orleans Saints.
The Commanders sent third-, fourth- and sixth-round draft picks to the Saints in exchange for Lattimore and a fifth-round pick.
Lattimore goes to Washington after seven-and-a-half seasons with the Saints. A first-round pick in the 2017 NFL draft, Lattimore quickly established himself as one of the NFL’s top young cornerbacks, earning NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year honors in 2017 and making four Pro Bowls in his first five NFL seasons.
He’s been plagued by injuries for the last few seasons, playing only seven games in 2022 and 10 games in 2023. He missed two games earlier this season with a hamstring injury. He’s performed well when he has been on the field, though, allowing just eight catches for 83 yards on 14 targets, according to Pro Football Focus, while recording two pass breakups.
Now, Lattimore leaves a team that‘s just 2-7 this season to go to a 7-2 team in Washington, where he’ll join his former Ohio State teammates Terry McLaurin, Noah Brown and Jalyn Holmes. The Saints, who have been known for their Buckeye-heavy rosters in recent years, still have three former Ohio State players in Chris Olave, Pete Werner and Chase Young.

Memphis forward Tyreek Smith has entered the NCAA Transfer Portal, per On3’s Pete Nakos. Smith transferred to Memphis this offseason from SMU. However, on Oct. 20, Smith informed head coach Penny Hardaway that he would be stepping away from the team.
Following Smith’s decision, his representative with Young Money Sports alleged that Memphis had not paid the transfer forward in the four months that he’d been with the team and had broken other promises to Smith.
Alas, CBS Sports’ Gary Parrish later reported that Memphis had paid Tyreek Smith $175,000, which is reportedly equivalent to a third of what he’d initially agreed to. If this is true, Memphis would not be behind on payments whatsoever.
Smith will look for his 5th college after transferring from Texas Tech to Oklahoma State to SMU to Memphis. ...
