2027 IL TE Brady Johnson (Northwestern Verbal)

Ohio State is going after a Big Ten opponent’s key recruit that is set to play college football with the son of Ryan Day​

Ryan Day’s son recently committed to play football at a Big Ten program. Now, the Ohio State Buckeyes are trying to flip one of RJ Day’s future targets.

Ohio State is after a future teammate of RJ Day to try to pull off a flip​

The Buckeyes’ coaching staff has been busy on the road recruiting and recently made a stop in Glen Ellyn, Illinois, and offered a Northwestern commitment. Ohio State has extended an offer to 2027 three-star TE Brady Johnson, who has been committed to Northwestern since Feb. 4.

Asked if he would take an official visit to Ohio State, Johnson said, “As of right now, I think so. I am fully committed to Northwestern still though,” via Rivals.

Ohio State tight ends guru Keenan Bailey recently visited Johnson at home home and he clearly has the attention of the 6-foot-3, 220-pound tight end.

“I love him as a coach,” Johnson said, via Rivals. “He is a highly intelligent and energetic coach that hammers down on the little things. He expects the most out of his players and that they will give him the most back. He is someone you definitely want to play for as he gives everything he has to make you and the team better.”

Ohio State has plenty of work with the class of 2027 to get done with just 11 commitments at this time. The Buckeyes are still in search of their first tight end commitment for the class, so it makes sense that they’re turning up the heat on Johnson.

DL Damari Simeon (Official Thread)

Login to view embedded media

Depth Chart Outlook​

In his first season as a Buckeye, Simeon will compete with fellow freshmen Emanuel Ruffin and Jamir Perez for the sixth DT spot on the three-deep behind James Smith, Eddrick Houston, Jason Moore, John Walker and Will Smith Jr.

If he develops well on and off the field as a freshman, Simeon's first real chance at playing time could come as a sophomore, though he’s more likely to contend for a starting job as an upperclassman.

Simeon could also play as a defensive end in three-man fronts given the versatility he demonstrated throughout his high school career, but defensive tackle will be his primary position for Ohio State.

Home Repairs/HoneyDo List/Advice & Tips/etc.

decided to not replace the whole shed, have decided that I can fix what is there - me that does the work is not happy with me that makes the decisions, me can be a real asshole sometimes. that being said, shed siding replacement is happening as soon as baseball season is over in about 2 weeks. i'm debating on taking a few days off work to get it done, or just do one side per weekend for a month, idk

Random pictures of the day

We played smear the queer too but I remember it more like someone had a ball and everyone chased him, knocked him down, dog piled and whoever got the ball was the queer it repeated over and over.
We played it in the 60s elementary school gym class by having two teams on opposite sides of the gym and trying to nail members of the other team. We used all different sized balls. The bigger softer ones were kinda pointless but God help you if you got blasted in the face by one of the small, harder ones with the dimples it it. Those bastards hurt!

Good times. good times.

'25 OH SG Dorian Jones (Rutgers signee, transfer to Kent St.)

Believe it's been said that one has to get on the court to impress. And the decision is to sit on the pine at a great school, or play more minutes at a lesser school. It's a decision I never had to make ;(....academic rigor at Kent St poses less of a hurdle, and on court competition probably less as well. But is it better to be a big frog in a small pond, or a small frog in the big pond? I'll let you decide, grasshopper.....
This kid was never an Ohio State caliber kid IMO. I coach HS basketball we played them. He was not impressive at all. Was surprised that he even held an offer, let alone be committed at the time. I get wanting to keep kids home, but some of the In-state talent Diebs has gone after is very questionable.

How would you rank these five Ohio State teams that had only one loss one through five?

I know every program has their fair share of close calls and near misses, but fuck, don't think anyone beats OSU in that department.

I remember when I was in 5th or 6th grade, I read that OSU had finished #2 more than any program in history. That may have changed, seeing as that was 20+ years ago (that was depressing to write). Talk about bittersweet.

Still wouldn't trade OSUs resume for anyone else's, but you could write a book (and a LONG one at that) on all the coulda/woulda/shouldas. The margin between 2nd best program all time and by far the best, is just that razor thin.
I read an article about just that a few years ago.
