Want to hang out with Matt Brown and other LGHLers? Come join us
Matt Brown via our friends at Land-Grant Holy Land
Visit their fantastic blog and read the full article (and so much more) here
If you’re in New York City or Columbus, let’s hang out.
You know what we haven’t done in a while? Some good ol’ in-person meetups.
I’m hitting the road in a few weeks for a mini book tour for my college football history book, “What If? A closer look at college football’s great questions”, and would love to hang out with y’all.
Here are the details:
New York City
When: Tuesday, November 14
Where: 205 E 42nd Street, New York, NY 10017
What: I’m partnering with the NYC Ohio State Alumni Club for a meet and greet and book signing. Cocktails will start at 6:30, and then the event will start at 7:00. I’ll talk a little bit about the book, and then whatever else anybody would like to talk about.
This event is open to the public (although it’s a smaller space, so you may want to plan on being there at 6:30). We’ll be raffling off a few free copies of the book, and I’ll be selling and signing others. If you’re in NYC, come say hi and hang out!
Columbus
When: Friday, November 17
Where: THE BOOK LOFT, 631 S 3rd St, Columbus, OH 43206, 7 PM.
What: I’ll be doing a meet and greet and book signing. A few other LGHL editors and writers may be there, and then we can all go grab beverages together afterwards.
I am also working to secure an event in Licking County that week as well, if you’re east of Columbus and don’t want to make the drive.
Will you be going anywhere else?
The current plan is to hold an event in Washington D.C. in January, with possible future events in Salt Lake City, Chicago and Cleveland. If you’d like me to come to your area, shoot me an email or DM, and if we can figure out a bookstore or library to serve as the anchor for an event, we can probably figure something out.
Is this book even any good?
Most people like it! There’s a few good nuggets about Ohio State in here, including how their rivalry with Michigan might be different had the Wolverines not re-joined the Big Ten (they got kicked out!), and how the Jim Tressel era, or Terrelle Pryor era, might have been different had 2007 WVU beaten Pitt. But if you love CFB history, failed conference realignment, and enjoyed some of my posts on this website, I think you’ll like the book.
Anyway, let’s all hang out in a few weeks! I hope to see some of you there.

Ohio State just offered another 2018 QB. What does that mean?
Matt Brown via our friends at Land-Grant Holy Land
Visit their fantastic blog and read the full article (and so much more) here
Is Emory Jones not long for Ohio State’s 2018 recruiting class? And just who is
Ohio State’s 2018 recruiting class is excellent right now. Per the 247 Sports Composite, it’s the best in the country, with four different five-star commits, and 16 blue-chippers.
One of the jewels of that class is high four-star QB Emory Jones. It’s easy to see why fans would be excited about Jones. He’s the No. 2 dual-threat QB in the country, and would be the highest rated QB recruit of the Urban Meyer era, and one of the best in Ohio State history, period. Basically every major program in the country wanted him, and he’s with the Buckeyes.
At least, for now.
The Franklin, Georgia product has (smartly, IMO) kept his options open, and has taken multiple visits to Alabama. By no means is Jones status as a member of the class of 2018 a lock.
And now Ohio State is hedging their bets, making another 2018 QB offer
According to Steve Wilfong, Ohio State offered 2018 Kentucky commit Jarren Williams.
#OhioState has offered Top247 2018 QB Jarren Williams: https://t.co/hYeq4jdRd7 @Bill_Kurelic @alexgleitman #Buckeyes
— Steve Wiltfong (@SWiltfong247) November 2, 2017Okay, who the heck is that?
A really good QB! Williams, also a Peach State product, has offers from plenty of other power programs, like Alabama (where he has visited), Florida State, Florida, LSU, and others. He’s a four-star prospect and ranked as the 8th dual-threat QB in the country. He’s got good size (6-2, 206 pounds), and has enough potential that plenty of programs who have good reps as talent evaluators seem to like him.
Does this mean Emory Jones is gone?
Not necessarily. Jones did visit Ohio State last weekend, (and hey, if you’re going to host some big time recruits, doing it for a massive comeback against Penn State is a pretty good time to do it), and he hasn’t officially opened his commitment.
But Ohio State issuing offers to big time 2018 QBs can reasonably be taken as a sign that at the very least, the Buckeyes are hedging their bets. Given how crowded Ohio State’s QB depth chart is right now, taking two blue-chip 2018 QBs would seem pretty unlikely (although hey, for the right croots, anything is possible). If the Buckeyes are out looking elsewhere, there’s probably a good reason.
But this is recruiting, and things can change all the time in recruiting, especially with QBs. So don’t write anything in stone.
Would losing Jones be a disaster?
Emory Jones is really, really good, and in my humble opinion, it is always better to sign a really, really good QB recruit than say, not signing one. But I don’t think this would be a disaster unless it led to a rash of other decommitments, which I don’t think is likely. The Buckeyes are likely to land another four-star QB if Jones departs, if not Williams, than perhaps another flip candidate. And there’s a lot of depth, at least prospects-wise, in the QB room right now, with Dwayne Haskins, Joe Burrow, and last year’s star QB recruit, Tate Martell. Signing a QB is a good idea every year, but even if Ohio State somehow wiffed on everybody, I don’t think that would be a catastrophe.
Ohio State’s 2018 recruiting class is probably still going to be really, really dang good. It might even be the best in the country. But which QB will be in it? That’s a little less clear now.

Ohio State in pole position for top 2020 QB

Jack Miller enjoyed his visit to Columbus.
Miller has Bucks on top
Ohio State had a host of highly touted prospects on campus this weekend who were able to take in their thrilling comeback victory over Penn State. One of those standouts came in the form of '20 QB Jack Miller, a pro-style passer that attends Chaparral High School in Scottsdale, Arizona.
All indications are that the 6-foot-4, 210-pounder enjoyed the trip to Columbus and that shouldn't be a surprise. In fact, according to Jeremy Birmingham of LandOf10.com, there was talk of Miller possibly shutting things down. Obviously, that ended up not being the case at Miller held off on making a pledge to the Buckeyes and will instead make more visits in the coming months.
However, what Miller did reveal to Birmingham in the brief chat was that Ohio State was indeed the leader in his recruitment. The Grand Canyon State prospect also stated that he will be back on campus in the spring or the summer. After that trip, Miller said he will then announce his commitment afterwards.
So, all-in-all, the Buckeyes are in a very good position for what looks to be one of the very best signal callers in the 2020 recruiting class — despite it being very early. Miller is currently penciled in as the 47th overall player in his class by 247Sports. Furthermore, the Firebirds leader also is slotted as the very best pro-style QB and the second highest graded player from the state of Arizona.
Gordon one to watch
Another prospect that was on campus this weekend to see the Buckeyes nail-biting victory over the Nittany Lions was '19 QB Andre Gordon of Sidney (OH).
The thing is, he's not JUST a quarterback, he's much more, and that's why Ohio State and other programs across the country are treating him accordingly. Gordon, a 6-foot-2, 185-pounder, is also a combo guard on the basketball floor that has even acquired offers to go that route at the next level.
As expected, Ohio State has both Urban Meyer and Chris Holtmann targeting the two-sport star and this past weekend. Gordon got an opportunity to see both sides of the program despite coming as a basketball visitor and he revealed to Alex Gleitman of 247Sports that "it was great."
"I got to meet the staff and the game was pretty fun. It was a successful weekend!," the Ohio prospect told Gleitman.
Despite getting looks from plenty of programs on both the gridiron and hardwood, Gordon isn't sure which path he is going to take yet. Gordon told Gleitman that his options are open and he isn't set on what he is doing yet.

War Room Wednesdays
Richard Tongohan via our good friends at Men of the Scarlet and Gray
Visit their fantastic blog and read the full article (and so much more) here
The CFB Playoffs debuted this week and the Buckeyes remained and was slotted at the #6 spot in the initial rankings. This is the perfect spot for the Buckeyes as they continue to play at a higher level as they continue to build their resume after the heartbreaker against Oklahoma. Their offense has gelled together and they continue to scorch opposing defenses to earn style points to place them into further consideration for another CFB Playoff berth.
This week, the Buckeyes travel to Kinnick Stadium as they look to continue their hot streak after their miracle comeback by J.T. Barrett and his brothers on defense. They erased an 18-point deficit and beat the then #2 Nittany Lions in one of the wildest games of the season, and most likely the best game of the year so far.
Blackout at Kinnick Stadium
This game will pit #6 against an unranked Iowa team that could catch the Buckeyes sleeping after their dramatic win at home. A potential hangover after battling to survive is possible when away from the confines of Columbus, and I am positive that the coaches have drilled that into their heads as they prepare to face another scrappy Iowa defense. This is one of three of the trap games the Buckeyes will have.
This uniform choice will ignite this crowd and give the team added motivation to the fire. It would be a major letdown if the Buckeyes fall in this contest and it would all but ruin their chances of making the CFB Playoffs.
If Urban Meyer and company wants another shot at redemption, he must get 110% from every unit, especially for his Special Teams unit who have been the Achilles heel so far this season.
Not so Special Teams
In what has been the most unfortunate surprises for the team this season, Special teams has been flat-out bad this season. This is Coach Meyer’s unit and they have not been playing to his or the Ohio State standard and other teams have been taking advantage of this weakness and they have been making them pay for 8 consecutive games.
Per Ohiostatebuckeyes.com, Ohio State has been decent on kick and punt returns so far this season. They have 19 for 535 yards and 15 for 73, both without any TD’s. Their only potential TD was turned away after another constant theme, penalties negated and wiped it away.
Opponents have scorched the Buckeyes unit in kick returns. They have 52 total kick returns for 988 yards and I believe 2 TD’s, a 100-yarder to Nebraska and the 97-yarder on the opening kickoff captured above. On punt returns, this unit is flawless giving up zero yardage on returns. One was blocked and Chrisman has shanked a couple, but they are not as bad as the kickoff unit.
If they want to win and win comfortably, they need to improve as a whole unit. The angled kickoffs seem to be putting them out of position, but we will see what improvements will be made.
The Barrett Gang
The J.T. Barrett show will continue to be the primary show followed closely by the Silver Bullets. Barrett has showed his resolve by performing against Penn State. This game will not have the flash, but it will be another hard fought contest against Josey Jewell, who has been the heart and soul of the Hawkeyes defense.
Barrett will be challenged offensively while facing the #12 scoring defense in the country after facing the top-ranked defense. Ohio State ranks 18th in the nation, so the drop off isn’t that severe, but it should be another good, hard-fought contest. The margin in PPG is small with Iowa holding the edge giving up 17.4 PPG while Ohio State is giving up 18.3 PPG. Iowa has surrendered 15 TD’s and 11 FG’s to Ohio State’s 20 TD’s and 2 FG’s.
Both teams are active in the sack department with the Buckeyes holding the small edge with their 20 sacks to Iowa’s 19. Ohio State’s defense is disruptive and is #2 in the nation in TFL’s and 12th in total defense.
Iowa’s offense will need to scheme against the Silver Bullets in order to prevent another Buckeye blowout. The same goes for their defense. They need to play disciplined in order to stop Barrett and his playmakers. The Buckeyes will look to establish balance into their gameplan to confuse Jewell.
Prediction:
I feel like the momentum will be too much to handle for the Hawkeyes and that they run into a buzzsaw even though they are at home. Ranked 6th in the CFB Playoffs, the Buckeye will take it as a slight, but they are in the correct place, but that won’t stop them from coming into this game angry and motivated. Barrett will continue his hot streak, but the RB’s will shine the most to prove a point.

As season approaches, Ohio State basketball’s Musa Jallow impresses Holtmann
Matt Tamanini via our friends at Land-Grant Holy Land
Visit their fantastic blog and read the full article (and so much more) here
And, how many night games are too many?
“He’s 17. I’ve had to have some patience, but Musa’s development has been good for us and important for us and I’d say that’s probably been most surprising.
-Chris Holtmann via Adam Jardy, The Columbus Dispatch
Let’s face it, expectations aren’t super high for the Buckeye basketball team coming into the 2017-2018 season. However, as the team preps for their exhibition game on Sunday versus Wooster, and their official season opener against Robert Morris on Nov. 10, there are bright spots for new head coach Chris Holtmann’s young squad.
One of those bright spots is apparently true-freshman Musa Jallow. Over the summer, Jallow reclassified from a 2018 prospect to a 2017 prospect so that he could be a part of Holtmann’s first class in Columbus. The 6’5 guard might not yet be able to vote, but reports are that he is already more than capable of holding his own physically with more seasoned college players.
So much so, that Holtmann had to convince a recruit’s parent watching practice recently that Jallow actually was only 17. The head coach credit’s Jallow’s dedication, especially to his diet, for allowing him to compete at the collegiate level so quickly.
At Big Ten Media Days, senior forward Jae’Sean Tate also talked up the 17-year-old. “He’s the best rebounder we have at this point,” Tate said. “He crashes the glass like nobody I’ve ever seen and he always gets his hands on it.”
So, while this might not be the most successful season in terms of wins and losses for Holtmann and his team, it should be successful in getting the talented group ready to compete in future seasons. However, when you consider that last year’s Buckeye team lost eight games by two possessions or less, this year’s iteration might not be as far off as we are all projecting.

As is always the case under Kirk Ferentz, the Iowa Hawkeyes are a “pro-style,” hard-nosed football team that will look to grind out long drives on the ground, dominate time of possession, and keep the score as low as possible. For this strategy to be successful, the Hawkeyes must be able to control the line of scrimmage, whether they have the ball or not.
Based off of what we have seen thus far this season, that will likely be a tall order against both Buckeye fronts. While quarterback J.T. Barrett deservedly got most of the headlines following Saturday’s historic victory (including from us here, here, here, here, here, and here), the OSU defense, and specifically the defensive line, were just as instrumental in the comeback as the fifth-year senior signal-caller.
Despite the kick-coverage team and an untimely turnover putting the Buckeyes in a quick 14-point hole, the Silver Bullets held the Nittany Lions to just 2.6 yards per rush on the game, including 14 tackles for loss.
Conversely, despite odd spells of absence from leading rusher J.K. Dobbins, the OSU rushing attack more than doubled the vaunted Penn State ground game (201-91), even though the Buckeyes trailed until the last 1:48 in the game. In fact, Dobbins was just three yards away from equaling PSU’s team output, and Barrett actually bested the Nittany Lions by four yards.
If Iowa is going to use its traditional strategy of keeping games close and playing “smash-mouth football,” they are going to need either an extraordinary effort to beat the Buckeyes at their own game, or for the Buckeyes to come into Kinnick Stadium on a post-comeback high, unprepared for the task at hand.
At this point, neither seems likely.
“As Meyer kept his voice steady while obviously steaming, announcing a belief that no team should play more than two road night games per season, I wondered ... Is Ohio State being too nice to the Big Ten about this?
-Doug Lesmerises, Cleveland.com
When Urban Meyer got to Columbus, he quickly began molding the Buckeye program in his own image, and one of those changes was to try to get as much attention on his program as possible. One of the ways that he did that was to embrace primetime games, breaking the long held OSU tradition of noon kickoffs.
However, as the status of Ohio State’s program has continued to climb, they are a coveted draw for whatever television network has the rights to their games, meaning that more and more, the Buckeyes are playing under the lights.
While undoubtedly Meyer enjoys the exposure and recruiting advantage that primetime games allow, the coach has been vocal lately about the strains that the games, especially increasingly on the road, put on student athletes. So, Lesmerises put together an all-encompassing look at Big Ten night games, from what TV contracts allow, the history of conference night games, and more.
The article is a great look at the business and negotiations that go into a decision that most fans never take the time to think about.

Ohio State releases hype trailer ahead of clash with Iowa

It’s all about the brotherhood.
Another week, another hype trailer released. This time, the creative minds at Ohio State gave us a refresher of Saturday’s big win against Penn State.
Highlights of fans storming onto the field, as well as the locker room speech from coach Mick Marotti on how the team will prevail against the Nittany Lions made the final cut for the trailer.
Additionally, this week’s trailer focused on the game-changing plays against PSU. Denzel Ward’s blocked punt, J.T. Barrett’s touchdown passes in the closing minutes of the game, and Sam Hubbard’s double tackle of Penn State quarterback Trace McSorley and running back Saquon Barkley were shown, before the phrase “This is Ohio State” splashes onto the screen in-between more highlight clips.
Ohio State takes on Iowa at 3:30 p.m. on Saturday. The game will be broadcast on ESPN.
