Asher Ghioto says Ohio State has been recruiting him hard since the contact period for 2028 recruits opened up and he’s planning to make it to a game this fall.
He said NIL will be a small factor in his decision (starting to become the new “education matters”). Says he will go anywhere in the country, he doesn’t have to stay in Florida. Said he wants to go to a program that’s big on faith and will develop him on and off the field, as a NFL player and as a man. He wants a coach that will mentor him and prepare him for life after football.

Not entirely certain about this class, seems like most all of the QBs have a home somewhere else. He tried to get the Nebraska commit, but was rebuffed. Not certain if it's true, but have read that Day still wants Brady in this class. Kinda think the talk they had on Brady's visit kinda settled the waters between them. Guess Brady has to decide if he wants to be Captain of a destroyer, or be First Mate on a super carrier. (No offense intended to our Navy personnel on destroyers). Personally, am hoping Lincoln Keinholtz has an outstanding year at Louisville. Go Bucks

Well, OSU has their '26 QB, and they're favored for an elite '28 QB, so if they hit the Portal in '27 if Edmunds chooses UCLA then the Portal wouldn't be the worst option. Especially if TSC is as good as advertised and starts for 2yrs

scUM player: "Number 7, we gonna get his ass"

How'd that work you for you, shit-for-brains?

Edit: I shouldn't be too hard on the dUMb player, he may be the best French-Fryer on his shift.

I'm sure I've said this in this thread but I was at this game and all of the tsun folks were chuckling when JT went down. I turned around to the guy behind me and said something to the effect of the two of them being very different QBs... Perhaps the only time in my life where I've been on the other end of a QB going down and a team not being prepared in the least for the change of pace with a new QB under center.

His brother, Chris, is obviously a Buckeye, but didn't I also read that his sister is on tOSU basketball team? Come on DeMarcus, join OUR family here in Columbus, as well as YOURS. That would give Diebs three young 5*s at once.

Controversial umpire C.B. Bucknor taking buyout to retire after 2026 MLB season​

Bucknor often found himself at the center of criticism over his work behind the plate. Many routinely questioned his consistency, and for good reason. His accuracy behind the plate is said to be 92 percent, well below the MLB average, according to UmpScorecards.com.

In player surveys conducted by Sports Illustrated in 2003 and 2006, he was voted the worst umpire in MLB.

Just sayin': OK, who's sorry to see him finally go?

Former OSU Buckeye to be named Louisville's QB1 any day now​

Surprisingly, Lincoln Kienholz hasn't been named Louisville's starting quarterback yet. Unsurprisingly, one Ohio State insider suggests that it'll come any day now.



The Louisville Cardinals' starting quarterback situation is technically fluid right now. With that said, Jeff Brohm is likely to land on his guy soon. That guy is almost certainly going to be former Ohio State Buckeyes QB Lincoln Kienholz.

As Bucknuts' Patrick Murphy notes, Kienholz being one of Brohm's selected representatives at ACC media day is likely a sign that the 4-star T.F. Riggs (SD) product will get the nod under center from the jump.

"It would be a major surprise if Kienholz were not named the Cardinals' starting quarterback heading into the 2026 season. His competition is West Georgia transfer Davin Wydner and true freshman Briggs Cherry, neither of whom has the Power Four-level experience Kienholz has. Head coach Jeff Brohm spoke positively about Kienholz throughout the spring, highlighting his athleticism and how Louisville can use a quarterback like him in his offense. Kienholz was recently named one of the Cardinals' three representatives for ACC Kickoff, an indication of his early standing within the program," Murphy wrote.

Kienholz has had a great spring in Louisville, completing 10/16 of his pass attempts during the spring game. He comes to the Cards with three valuable seasons in Ryan Day's system and using the Woody Hayes Athletic Center to sharpen his skills and get his strength up to snuff.

On paper, Kienholz is a perfect fit. Brohm certainly thinks so, having sung Kienholz's praises back in February before he even got an extended look at the QB.

“Lincoln brings us a dimension we have not had here before. He’s a very good athlete,” Brohm told the media in February. “He shows that every day, even now, up until this point. He can throw the football as well; he’s had to sit back and watch and learn…he knows his time is now. We’re going to work very hard to help him play his best football as we get going into the season.”

Lincoln Kienholz will be an easy ex-Buckeye to cheer for​

There's no doubt that Kienholz needed to leave Columbus. Not because he wasn't as well-liked as he is now in the Bluegrass State. Kienholz was just as beloved in Central Ohio, if anything, and it was tough to see him go.

Jus sayin': He falls in the category of "once a Buckeye, always a Buckeye", not "ex-Buckeye"; regardless, he definitely would be easy to cheer for.

Admitting I have no earthly insight to the immediate impact question, gotta chuckle somewhat. tOSU has a very stacked roster, with nary a weakness anywhere. So would expect the coaches make a conscious decision to play one or more of these 5* studs, over a more developed back-up. To get them experience under fire, certainly. To see if what they exhibit in practice translates to the field, also certainly. And the more they produce, the more minutes they get. How many 4-5* WRs have fled to greener pastures because they believe they deserve more minutes?

I, for one, am usually on the side of regardless of star ranking in HS, all HS players have an uphill battle to see the field as true frosh. Going against a bulk of players who may never sniff a D3 field, let alone D1 is BIG! Even if a player went to the best HS program in a very competitive region and state, they will undoubtedly play a number of games facing competition that will never even make it to college in their near future. These kids will face backups that may be better than any player they've ever faced, due to that backup already being in a college S&C program, and knowing collegiate moves, and just being stronger and faster due to age. JJ was the only true frosh I've seen at OSU since Clarett that came in and looked different from day 1. And even Clarett has stated that his practices at OSU were some of the hardest of his life. So it will be interesting to see DJ go up against Carter Lowe or even Deontae Armstrong

And to answer your question about OSU WRs: the entire 2022 WR class, Jayden Ballard, Quincy Porter, Julian Fleming, Bodpegn Miller and Damarion Witten

Not to be confused with 2028 5* WR Maddox Davis, but who is also has Ohio State as one of his favorites. (Dad big Ohio State fan all his life).

Was idly musing about the above, and suggest that tOSU signs LeBron as a TE, or play him (wherever he wants to play) on the basketball court, as he was a HS entry, and therefore has four years of eligibility left....he certainly doesn't need any NIL bucks....

Kelsey's game reminds me favorably of Havlicek's career with the Celtics. Not a scorer at tOSU, but with the Celtics, his constant movement got him open, and believed he was (at one-time) in the top 10 of overall NBA scorers. Kelsey's constant movement gets her open, and amazingly, for layups. Never seems to take any time off, but outworks her opponent (seems to be mostly larger, long armed defenders), and gets her threes on a constant basis. Probably people with better memories than I have, but don't recollect that she ran as much on the Buckeye court. Do remember her bringing the ball down, and popping threes from all over the place. CC gets the pub, but Kelsey holds that team together. Also, never seems to be injured, and has logged more minutes than anyone else.

i'd be a lot more concerned about this year had I not seen what he did last year. These guys have had a full year with him and, while we may see some early mistakes, I think this is going to be a ferocious defense. We'll need it with this year's schedule. Hoping that we see a lot of rotation early.

ALWAYS BE ON TIME. My high school basketball coach had a saying: “If you’re early, you’re on time. If you’re on time, you’re late. And if you’re late, that’s unacceptable.”

The punishment for being late was simple but unforgettable. The entire team would run sprints. Then, while everyone else tossed basketballs across the gym, the offender had to chase every ball down, collect them all and return them to the rack.

Mick Marotti has some harsher penalties for Ohio State’s players, according to punter Joe McGuire:

The Buckeyes would be smart to arrive 15 minutes early to every workout or practice — just to be safe. Nobody wants to be late, and even fewer want to end up on Mick Marotti’s bad side. I know I wouldn’t.

Brian Hartline drops bold statement on how South Florida will operate like the Ohio State Buckeyes​

Former Ohio State offensive coordinator Brian Hartline isn’t shying away from how he’s trying to run the football program at South Florida.

Hartline himself on the other hand, is working on leveling up a South Florida program that has seen some G5 success lately. The former Buckeye isn’t shying away from what he’s trying to do there.

Brian Hartline is very open about his plans at South Florida​

“The best form of flattery is to replicate,” Hartline said via On3. “I’m not shy about it — I played at Ohio State for four years and coached there for the last decade. We’re going to do a lot of similar things with our own touch. We’re not going to fake it or pretend to be somebody we’re not, but the expectations and the operation will resemble Ohio State.”

Hartline played at Ohio State from 2005 to 2008 and developed into a fourth-round NFL draft pick. After seven seasons in the NFL, Hartline took a couple of years off before joining the coaching staff at Ohio State in 2017. From 2018-2025, Hartline served as the wide receivers coach in Columbus where the Buckeyes have had first-round picks like Garrett Wilson, Chris Olave, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Emeka Egbuka, and Marvin Harrison Jr.

Though South Florida isn’t going to have the NIL backing or the expectations that the Buckeyes do, Hartline hopes to carry some of the same ways the program is run over. Building a good culture is the key to any successful football program, and it’ll be a necessity for Hartline at South Florida.

Hartline isn’t taking over a slouch of a program, either, as Alex Golesh led the Bulls to nine wins last season. South Florida won a combined 23 games in the last three seasons after having just four wins total the previous three years. Hartline has his work cut out for him, but carrying some Ohio State ways with him will certainly help.

I like that Brock seems to be a good sport with all the jokes. Because fr fr, I think he’s going to be really good in this offense. He reminds me so much of Olave. If he can get developed and earn PT, he can become a monster

Olave is the exact comparison I had. Droves of production and silky smooth in and out of his cuts. Plenty fast enough to go with the finer detail he appreciates at the position. Playing at such a high level of competition and having a great program to be coached at had to help him coming in as well.
