Twitter has probably been a net negative in American society. Let’s just get that out of the way up front.

It has contributed to shrinking attention spans, a rise in hostility between different segments of society, and an overall decrease in the general level and tone of discourse.

It’s not solely responsible for any of those, but it sure hasn’t helped.

But every once in a while, Twitter can facilitate something truly wonderful.

Thursday evening, Brooke Adams, a Buckeye fan in Texas, posted a tweet asking the Ohio State football community for help.

“This was when my daughter’s gravestone was placed on her 16th bday,” the tweet read. “Tomorrow’s her 19th birthday. Any @OhioStAthletics fans in the Lima area want to drop off a buckeye nut for me? I live 1,400 miles away now, can’t visit her grave & it’s killing me.”

lowly, and thanks in large part to a retweet from Shelley Meyer, the tweet began to circulate through Ohio State’s massive Twitter community.

Eventually it reached some people who were able to make Adams’ wish come true.

Several people in the Lima area responded, offering to go.

A Buckeye fan named Rachel was the first to post a photo.

Chris and Lori Holtmann reflect on the past year, and their transition to Ohio State
Alexis Chassen via our friends at Land-Grant Holy Land
Visit their fantastic blog and read the full article (and so much more) here


Plus, Michael Thomas is the NFL’s best slot receiver and 2 Buckeyes won the Big Ten’s Outstanding Sportsmanship Award.

“I thought it was done Wednesday night,” Lori said. “I went to bed pretty at peace Wednesday night thinking we had made a decision that we felt good about, but was still hard.”

-Lori Holtmann via Bill Landis, cleveland.com


A year ago today Ohio State men’s basketball officially hired Chris Holtmann to usher in the post-Thad Matta era in Columbus. But even the night before he agreed to take the position, he and his wife had both expected another outcome.

Landis talks to both Chris and his wife Lori in his article about the days leading up to this monumental decision and the whirlwind that would become the next 12 months. It’s remarkable to think back about all the things he had to hurry to do to not only get a complete roster for his new Ohio State team, but to get them ready to compete in just a few short months. All while Lori packed up their family and prepared to make a move to Columbus with little-to-no notice.

Its fascinating to see how all the small things came together in a big way during the course of the crazy 48-hour window this all happened. Landis walks through the meeting with Ohio State AD Gene Smith — which Lori knew must be extra important, because her presence was requested as well — and how Chris Holtmann was paranoid someone would see the Butler coach heading into a motel in Dayton, Ohio.

Lori searching for something red to wear to the meeting — with a closet full of Butler blue — may be the most relate-able thing in the piece.

Even a year later, to read that Lori was getting choked up thinking about the Butler team they were leaving behind, lets me appreciate the type of people the Holtmanns are — off the basketball court — and further lends to my excitement that they’re here for the long haul.

Daniel Kelley via ProFootball Focus
-Daniel Kelley, ProFootball Focus


It’s no secret at this point that Michael Thomas has not just met, but exceeded the already-high expectations from him as he made the transition from Ohio State football to the NFL. Heading into his third season in the league, he’s already notched several New Orleans Saints’ team and NFL records.

Daniel Kelley at ProFootball Focus pulled some pretty incredible stats from Thomas in 2017, and there should be no question moving forward whether or not the Buckeye should lineup in the slot. (Spoiler: He should.)

Kelley notes in his analysis that Thomas was target on 26.7 percent of his routes, with only 11 wide receivers over the past four years hitting the 25 percent (or higher) mark. Even more astounding, is that on plays in which Thomas ran slot routes, he was targeted 40.5 percent of the time (47-of-116 slot routes).

Kelley explains, “Being targeted on 40.5 percent of slot routes is basically unheard of. In the PFF era (2006 to present), it is far and away the highest percent we’ve seen.”

Not only were Thomas’ number of targets eye-popping, but he also averaged 3.63 yards per route out of the slot, good enough to lead the league in 2017 and rank No. 2 in the PFF era — the second-best yards per route last season was Robert Woods at 2.26.

While Kelley acknowledges that it would be tough for Saints’ QB Drew Brees to keep targeting Thomas at the same rate, the fact they were able to connect as often as they were last season is impressive enough. One thing’s for sure, picking Thomas for your fantasy football team in 2018 seems like a pretty safe choice.

“Jincy Dunne (women’s ice hockey) and Nathan Tomasello (wrestling) were recognized by the Big Ten Conference as Outstanding Sportsmanship Award winners on Thursday (June 7).”

-Ohio State Athletics


Two Buckeyes earned some big conference honors on Thursday, claiming the Outstanding Sportsmanship awards for their respective sports. Ohio State had previously nominated one player from each varsity sport (36 in total) to be eligible for the conference honor, by way of earning the program’s 2018 Ohio State Sportsmanship Award.

Ohio State’s news release outlined the requirements for the honor, which included:


Buckeye Jincy Dunne of the women’s ice hockey team, earned the title Alternate Captain halfway through the 2017-18 season, as well as provided a defensive juggernaut for the team down the stretch, and tied the team-lead with 24 assists. Her career at Ohio State has not been short of accolades, with a list that includes AHCA All-American Second Team, All USCHO Third Team, and WCHA First Team — all in addition to being a three-time OSU Scholar-Athlete and named twice to the Academic All-Big Ten team.

Award winner Nathan Tomasello is just the 15th wrestler in conference history to earn four individual Big Ten titles, and in 2018, somehow managed a 16-2 record despite competing with a torn ACL the entire year. (!!!) His Ohio State career includes an overall 100-8 record and an NCAA title at 125 pounds in 2016. Some of his other career accolades include being a two-time Big Ten Distinguished Scholar, and three-time NWCA All-Academic honoree, all while graduating with not one, but TWO degrees.

Other honorees who earned the 2018 Ohio State Sportsmanship Award but not the Big Ten honor, include; Tracy Sprinkle (football), Andrew Dakich (men’s basketball), Asia Doss (women’s basketball), Megan Choinacky (softball), and Adam Niemeyer (baseball).

Congrats to all these Buckeyes making a name for themselves in their respective sports and in the classroom.

“With a time of 3:31.02, the Buckeyes extended their competition schedule to Saturday for one last race.”

-Ohio State Athletics


The Ohio State women’s 4x400m relay team is headed to the finals thanks to a close finish to claim the last spot to advance at the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships. The relay team of senior Maggie Barrie, sophomore Halimah Barlow, freshman Syaira Richardson, and senior Karrington Winters will compete in the finals on Saturday after running a season-best 3:31.02.

Some of the other Buckeye women to compete on Thursday included senior Chantel Ray, who ran a 13.40 in the 100m hurdles for No. 21 overall, and senior Christine Frederick ran the 10,000m final and finished No. 22 with a time of 35:23.61 — good enough to end her Ohio State career as one of the top 24 in the country. Maggie Barrie may have advanced in the 4x400m relay, but she also ran a 52.80 in the 400m dash, finishing fifth in her heat and No. 16 overall.

The NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships continues Friday night with several Buckeyes competing in the men’s events, followed by the women’s finals on Saturday.

A North Carolina prospect is the latest to earn the coveted Buckeye offer.

It’s June which pretty much means only one thing in the college football world: we’re close, but not close enough to the start of the 2018 season. Coaching staffs around the country stay busy awaiting their 2018 kickoff with recruiting being a huge priority. With the Ohio State Buckeyes football camp season getting underway, the opportunity presents itself for many Ohio and out-of-state prospects to come to campus, but also a lot of “bubble” guys searching for the Ohio State offer. As we’ve seen in the past, guys that the Buckeyes aren’t originally super “sold” on come to camp, impress, and the rest is history. This summer camp season could see the same results, but as usual, this staff knows their targets ahead of time and are in great shape to land many of those top guys they have atop of their leader board.

2020 stud lands Ohio State offer


Most of the prospects receiving Buckeye offers currently are going to be 2020 prospects. With the 2019 guys being the current class cycle, Mark Pantoni and Urban Meyer have pretty much all but locked in who they want in their next great Ohio State class. Realizing there may be one or two campers this summer who may become a priority, it’s not completely wrong to think there’s a chance some more 2019 guys may receive some interest, but 2020 is where recruiting followers should really pay attention when it comes to new names and new offers. Yesterday was certainly another opportunity for that point exactly.

Headed to North Carolina, the latest prospect to receive the impressive Ohio State offer after announcing via his Twitter account was Kedrick Bingley-Jones. A Kannapolis, N.C., native, Kedrick is continuing to see his recruitment take off at an increased rate. A 6-foot-4, 240-pound defensive end, Bingley-Jones is currently ranked as the No. 13 DE, and is also the eighth best player in North Carolina for the ‘20 class, according to 247sports. Impressive to say the least, Kedrick really saw a jump in interest earlier in May when Texas A&M, Maryland, NC State, Georgia and Florida State all offered within the same few short weeks.


Fast forward to June, and with the Buckeyes now knocking at the door, it’s only a matter of time before seemingly every program in the country enters the race for his services. Kedrick still has two full prep seasons to develop before his college ball is played, so it’s clear that his abilities, size and strength will all continue to increase—making him a huge asset for the teams he will consider. He’s yet to step foot in Columbus for an unofficial Buckeye visit, but with Meyer’s track record of getting guys on campus and selling the program, you can probably bet Kedrick will make the trip before all is said and done. Until then, the Buckeyes are in the game and will continue building a relationship between the two.

What in the world is going on?


If the heading above is any indication, well you know then that nobody seems to have a clue with what is going on in the 2019 class regarding the quarterback situation. For a while it seemed that Grant Gunnell was the guy, but after his commitment to Arizona this week, it became very evident that he wasn’t the guy. It’s been a little confusing, and honestly, most aren’t really sure if the Buckeyes even have a guy they really like for this current class. It’s been said by many that the 2019 cycle just doesn’t have a great depth of highly rated quarterbacks. There’s obviously truth to that statement, but with the current depth in Columbus, you’d have to bet that Ohio State should (and will) take a QB this class.

The guy though? That remains to be seen.

Looking at the 2020 class, Jack Miller has been linked to the Buckeyes as the guy to be not only the signal caller in the class, but the leader, too. However, throw in current 2020 commit Jake Wray, and you have the storyline that his current high school teammate and QB he personally protects, Harrison Bailey, was just on campus with Wray to see what the Buckeyes had to offer. Knowing Jake will be in his teammate’s ear for the better part of the next two years, you have another strong candidate Ohio State will pursue in the 2020 class.

But what does all of this mean, knowing that a year from now things are a little brighter? It means trust the Ohio State staff. Their ability to win on and off the field in the Meyer tenure is more than enough reason to put your trust in them. It also means a “flip” could be possible as well as a few new names could enter the room as potential guys to go after and land. With the camp season coming up like already mentioned too, there’s a few at the position that will be in attendance. For example, in the coming months to follow, 2019 QB Brian Maurer of Ocala, Fla., is currently committed to West Virginia, but has a visit to see the Buckeyes already set for this summer. Throw in 2022 QB Tevin Carter, a young phenom with seven offers already, and you have yet another guy that will be on campus as early as today.

To put the long story short: the Buckeyes will sign a QB in their 2019 class. We may know the name or we may not, but the staff should have earned enough of your trust already to realize it will work out in the end.

Quick Hits:

• Ohio State’s coaching staff has already been on the road out of state to attend a few camps. Yesterday, Clark Atlanta University announced the Buckeyes will be one of the schools in attendance on their 1-day, June 13 camp in Georgia.
• 6-foot-5, 210 pound tight end Brandon Strange of West Virginia just visited Ohio State this past week on Monday. Since then, he has received an offer from Wake Forest with more certainly to follow. Looking like he’s trying to earn a Buckeye offer, he will be returning to campus to camp for the staff just next week.
