WR Brandon Inniss, Captain (All B1G, National Champion)

I think Innis will have a huge year. Last year being Sayin’s first year as a starter he missed a wide open Innis several times a game. If Sayin learns how to go through his progression this year Innis will have 80 catches
Inniss may be fighting for his starting and could be a rotational player if he doesnt improve. Parker and McCuin didnt come to OSU to sit. Should be a fun battle to follow

“It didn’t go our way, and that’s alright. Life, sometimes stuff don’t go your way,” Thornton said. “But I’m just appreciating the teammates, the coaching staff and Buckeye Nation just sticking with me for four years. I’m so appreciative for everything that happened in my life, man. It’s not the way I wanted to end it, but that’s just how it is sometimes.

"... It hits the heart at home. I feel like I did a lot for this program. The program did a lot for me. The memories, the relationships have done a lot for me," he continued. "Emotionally, crying because you don’t get to share the locker room (anymore) with the guys you’ve been working with since June. So I just told those guys, ‘I’m just one call away.’ If you need anything from me, just call me and I’ll be here. I’m always a Buckeye for life.”

Thornton did more than "a lot" for Ohio State, and while he thanked his fellow Buckeyes, OSU fans can thank him more for what he brought to the program the last four years. Buckeye fans praised Thornton all season, but it was a very special Senior Day that really showed just how much No. 2 has meant to Ohio State.

“Bruuuuuuuuuuce.”

DE Kenyatta Jackson (All B1G, National Champion)

Kenyatta Jackson Jr. Came Back to Improve Draft Stock, Lead Ohio State’s New-Look Roster

161976_h.jpg


It’s an odd feeling walking the halls of the Woody Hayes Athletic Center for Kenyatta Jackson Jr. as he prepares for his fifth and final season of college football.

Only two other members of his recruiting class remain at Ohio State: Carson Hinzman and Bennett Christian. Fifty-one new players came to Columbus either as transfers or freshmen in January.

“Made me feel old,” Jackson said on March 12. “But we’re the older guys on the team, just trying to take in new faces, new freshmen and just lead them, pull them aside with us.”

Jackson didn’t have to hang around for all the newness. He’d have likely been selected in the 2026 NFL draft had he declared, possibly on day two. But he’s back. Back to improve that draft stock, and back to lead all the new faces around him.

“I came back just to be a more complete football player, not just on the field, but off the field with IQ and things of that nature,” Jackson said. “I'm taking a leadership role. We have new guys in the room. I'm just taking them in and showing them the ropes of Ohio State football, the standard of what Ohio State football is.”

Ohio State Fencing (2020 B1G Champions)

I will make a factual correction to this story and even relate it back to the current Ohio State wrestling team in exchange for @Romanowski contributing a new story to one of BP's great threads: https://buckeyeplanet.com/forum/thr...ng-instances-about-romos-old-man.36439/page-3 . Ball is in your court Romo.

Haaaa, I have a couple more. They are so unbelievable you’ll think I’m lying!!!

Cincinnati Reds (2026 Season Thread)

Tommy John forthcoming


Only after they waste so much time this year trying to rehab it without surgery that the inevitable surgery takes away the 2027 season too.

Timing matters as much as the career threatening injury. Any amateur can just run off and get something fixed as soon as it happens.

These are professionals we are talking about here.

Cleveland Browns (Factory of Sadness)

Oh good. More public money going to pay for Temu Jerry's vanity project. Always important for our tax dollars to support billionaires.

Can you feel the trickle….
