Does the Ohio State football team lack depth?

Also, Buckeye alums fall short in The Basketball Tournament.
“Urban Meyer, who's signed seven five-star prospects in the last three years and two top-five classes in 2016 and 2017, rejects the premise that Ohio State is a deep team.”
- Bill Landis, cleveland.com
LOL, ok, Urbz. Look, I get it. Meyer is a master at motivating his team; he does have a degree in psychology after all. However, for him to say that a team coming off back-to-back, top-five recruiting classes doesn’t have depth strains credulity. Are there positions that could use a few more talented bodies (cough, cough WR), as Meyer maintains? Of course. But, the number of players ready to contribute in significant ways on the field is as impressive as it has ever been during Meyer’s tenure in Columbus.
As Landis notes, “There is a difference between depth of experience and depth of talent.”
Clearly, as long as the coaching staff continues to recruit like they have been, there will always been plenty of the latter, but, in many ways, that positive begets the negative with the former.
If you always have talented options waiting in the wings, that is going to keep the window closed in most cases for younger players to get on the field early, but that doesn’t mean that there is no depth; ask Malik Hooker. After just one year of playing time at OSU, he was the Indianapolis Colts’ first-round draft-pick this year.
So, perhaps Meyer defines depth differently than I do, or maybe this is another motivational tactic in the “Next Man Up” mantra. Either way, while the coaching staff might have to rely on some players with minimal on-field experience, it is hard to imagine that a team with this much talent will ever truly be lacking in depth.
“There was minimal separation between the two teams throughout the contest... Both regulation and the first overtime included blown last-second opportunities, with Scarlet & Gray getting a shot near the rim that should have won it in regulation.”
- Tyler Conway, Bleacher Report
Last night, Scarlet & Gray, a team primarily consisting of former Ohio State basketball players, fell in heart-breaking fashion during the semifinals of the fourth-annual The Basketball Tournament. In a roller-coaster game, the OSU alums were edged out by Team Challenge ALS, 88-83 in double-overtime, ending their quest for TBT’s $2 million prize.
Back-and-forth all game, David Lighty missed a layup, on a seemingly broken play at the end of regulation, that would have given the former Buckeyes the victory. However, S&G had to play both overtime periods without its only true point-guard, Aaron Craft, who fouled out in the last few seconds on the second half, barely undercutting Team Challenge ALS’s Casper Ware while he was taking a three.
Ware led all scorers with 28 while Jared Sullinger was tops for the OSU alums. He went for 26 points and 10 rebounds, making a strong case throughout the tournament that he deserves another shot in the NBA.
Team Challenge ALS, which will donate $250,000 to Ice Bucket Challenge creator Pete Frates if they win, and will take on two-time defending champion Overseas Elite in Thursday’s championship game. The contest will be broadcast on ESPN at 7:00 p.m. ET.
“Pryor will have to prove that his 1,000-plus yard season wasn’t just a fluke, but rather a solid foundation from which to build. He’s got all the intangibles teams want to see: size, speed, and versatility. But can he replicate his production from 2016?”
- Alexis Chassen, SBNation
Nothing about Terrelle Pryor’s transition from quarterback to receiver makes sense. First, how does a player taken in the supplemental draft play quarterback for three seasons, bounce around to three other teams, and then decide that he is willing to make a positional change when signed by his fifth team in four years? That should be a recipe for failure.
However, in 2016, the former Ohio State quarterback put up 1,007 yards as a WR in his second season in Cleveland, driving up his contract demands. Pryor is now playing in Washington on a one-year, $6 million contract that includes additional incentives.
With all that in mind, as Chassen points out, one of biggest surprises about Pryor’s transformation into a reliable NFL receiver is that not one, but two coaching staffs have seen enough in him to be willing to invest time and money into a player that is still a work-in-progress.
NFL coaches and front offices are notoriously hesitant to do anything that might end up being a waste of time and money, and projects are usually reserved for late-round draft picks, not players in their third or fifth year in the league. However, TP’s blend of size and athleticism makes him the rare exception. And, if he is able to prove that his 2016 production was no fluke, then he’s in for an even bigger payday come season’s end.

Top 5 Ohio State players primed to breakout in 2017
Kyle Sumner McKinnon via our friends at Land-Grant Holy Land
Visit their fantastic blog and read the full article (and so much more) here
The next batch of breakout stars are ready to shine.
Players can breakout at any time in college football.
And few schools understand that better than Ohio State.
Last season alone, OSU saw Malik Hooker, Marshon Lattimore, Mike Weber and others rise from obscurity only to become some of the most important Buckeyes on the team.
So you can be rest assured that there’ll be more like Hooker and Co. to come this year.
Prior to the start of the 2016 season, I predicted Hooker, Weber, Noah Brown, Sam Hubbard, and Chris Worley would breakout. Brown fell off a bit after his four touchdown performance against Oklahoma, but the rest panned out nicely.
Here again are five breakout candidates to keep an eye on as we inch closer to the Buckeyes season opener.
No. 5: Dante Booker
We’ve been hearing for the past three seasons just how great Dante Booker can be. While he hasn’t lived up to the hype yet, it’s not for lack of trying.
Booker had a chance to step in as one of the Buckeyes starting outside linebackers in 2016, but a Week 1 injury derailed his promising debut campaign. Entering his senior season, a healthy Booker is primed to become OSU’s latest one-year wonder.
New linebackers coach Billy Davis said as much in the spring.
“I’m excited about Dante,” Davis said. “Dante is a special athlete and we’ve got him out in space because he’s got a lot of speed, quickness and ability to change directions.”
“We’re excited to see how Book grows out there.”
If the Silver Bullets want to meet expectations, Booker has to maintain good health alongside Worley and Jerome Baker.
No. 4: Nick Bosa
I don’t want to hear about how Nick Bosa already had his breakout season as a freshman in 2016.
It’s just not true. Five sacks and 29 tackles – no matter the team – is not breaking out.
While the younger Bosa exceeded expectations and put up some nice numbers on a stacked defensive line, a legitimate breakout year has yet to come. His time to shine is on the horizon, though, based on the path Nick’s older brother Joey took at OSU.
A Scarlet and Gray all-timer, Joey Bosa broke out as a sophomore, compiling 13.5 sacks, 21.5 tackles for a loss, and four forced fumbles. He absolutely wrecked opposing offenses and I wouldn’t be surprised if his 6-foot-4, 270-pound sibling followed suit this year.
Now, Nick Bosa won’t start the season, but he should see an expanded role on an opportunistic defense.
No. 3: Demario McCall
Only one other Buckeye on this list has been hyped up more than Demario McCall, and even then it’s close.
Fresh off a year of seasoning, McCall is set to be OSU’s next big thing at running back. The 5-foot-9, 195-pounder is a speed-demon and is as explosive a runner as we’ve seen in recent memory in Columbus.
Garbage time or not, McCall made the most of his 53 offensive touches in 2016, tallying 354 yards and four touchdowns.
Although some believe McCall – who prefers it – may remain at tailback alongside Weber and J.K. Dobbins, he’ll still likely split time with Paris Campbell at H-Back.
Regardless of where he lines up, McCall’s a homerun threat and a potential X-Factor for the Buckeyes.
No. 2: Denzel Ward
After watching Hooker, Lattimore and Gareon Conley – former teammates in the Buckeye secondary – all get selected in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft, Denzel Ward figures to be next in line.
Ward’s a strong cover man and is every bit as athletic as Lattimore and Conley. He was also just as valuable to OSU’s defense last season, logging 468 total snaps.
Our very own Christopher Jason summed up Ward’s quietly dominant 2016 campaign.
“Per CFB Film Room, Ward was targeted the second most on the team (42) behind Conley (43) and only allowed 15 receptions on the season. They had him charted for nine first downs allowed and he let up zero touchdowns on the season. Not too bad for your third corner.”
Don’t be the fan that gets caught off guard by Ward’s play when Week 1 hits.
No. 1: Binjimen Victor
Hype and Binijimen Victor have become synonymous with each other.
Victor saw little of the field in 2016, but that definitely won’t be the case this year. The lanky wideout is a sharp route-runner, can win any 50-50 ball, and has the athletic ability to really take over games.
He’s also a legit No. 1 receiver and a reliable go-to target for J.T. Barrett, who struggled with accuracy issues for much of last season. It was obvious in the spring game that Victor had made significant progress towards being OSU’s top pass-catcher.

It’ll be fun to see what Victor can do in the Buckeyes revamped Kevin Wilson-led unit.
If he can consistently create separation and prove his value as a downfield threat, there’s no telling how good their offense can be.

‘The Game’ is more than a game for Ohio State and Michigan
Geoff Hammersley via our friends at Land-Grant Holy Land
Visit their fantastic blog and read the full article (and so much more) here
Time and time again, it’s been shown that Ohio State-Michigan is a way of life.
On the first day of Big Ten Media Days, Ohio State football head coach Urban Meyer spoke about the rivalry between OSU and Michigan. Meyer, who’s beaten the Wolverines in each of his five seasons as the point man in Columbus, said that ‘The Game’ was “the greatest rivalry in all of sports.”
Yes, this is an Ohio State blog, but what Meyer said has a lot of truth to it.
The Buckeyes and Wolverines have met a total of 113 times, and have been one of the most—if not the most—electrifying and consistent matchups in all of sports. From the 2006 contest, which was dubbed as ‘The Game of the Century’ as No. 2 Michigan traveled to Columbus to face No. 1 Ohio State for a virtual spot in the BCS Championship Game, to last season’s AP Top 5 showdown in The ‘Shoe, there have been plenty of recent games that have had the rivals face-off when the stakes were high.
And when those stakes are high, both teams are, literally, tied.

While only a select few are able to suit up and be part of the Ohio State-Michigan rivalry, the fan bases for both teams make the rivalry what it is: an event that is circled on calendars; an event that seeks your full and undivided attention as bragging rights hang in the balance.
For some, this rivalry means the world to them.
Take the case of Zach Lawrence, the Buckeye fan who was injured in a car accident in the Republic of Georgia and slipped into a coma, and who willed himself back to consciousness with the help of doctors. At Dodd Hall Rehabilitation Center at Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, Lawrence, who was still recovering from the brain injury sustained in the accident, was given a button to answer ‘yes’ and ‘no’ questions.
One of the questions asked was whether or not he was a fan of Michigan. Lawrence responded by hitting the ‘no’ button, and then for good measure, hit the same button again.
Here was a man who went through a hellacious accident in an unfamiliar place, who doctors thought wouldn’t wake up from the coma. In an article by The Columbus Dispatch, Zach’s family was told by doctors that the chance of him waking up were “pretty much nonexistent”.
And yet, his road to recovery went through acknowledging his dislike of Michigan.
This isn’t the first time the rivalry has been used in someone’s recovery. Back in 2013, Grant Reed, then a seventh grader, had brain cancer. However, he never called it cancer; he called it ‘Michigan.’ And like the recent trend of results on the gridiron, Reed ended up beating his version of Michigan, too.
That’s the personal impact ‘The Game’ has on everyday life. On the actual day Ohio State-Michigan face each other, the environment—hours before game time— is electric. It doesn’t matter if you are a fan or a member of the media: You can’t deny the fact that ‘The Game’ has a different feel to it, and the level of intensity it brings to the table can’t be duplicated by any other rivalry in any other sport.
At the 2006 edition of OSU-UM, dubbed as ‘The Game of the Century’ by the media, for hours before kickoff to hours after the game went final, the atmosphere in Columbus was rocking. Even in later contests that didn’t feature Ohio State and Michigan in the No. 1 or No. 2 spots, the atmosphere is still something that can’t be duplicated.
From the Lonestar Showdown between Texas A&M and Texas, to a Penn State white out, the atmosphere at those events could not be matched to what Ohio State and Michigan bring to the table.
From the atmosphere at games, to the personal level the rivalry affects everyday people, to the game itself, Ohio State-Michigan is more than a game; it’s a part of life.

While only a select few are able to suit up and be part of the Ohio State-Michigan rivalry, the fan bases for both teams make the rivalry what it is: an event that is circled on calendars; an event that seeks your full and undivided attention as bragging rights hang in the balance.
For some, this rivalry means the world to them.
Take the case of Zach Lawrence, the Buckeye fan who was injured in a car accident in the Republic of Georgia and slipped into a coma, and who willed himself back to consciousness with the help of doctors. At Dodd Hall Rehabilitation Center at Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, Lawrence, who was still recovering from the brain injury sustained in the accident, was given a button to answer ‘yes’ and ‘no’ questions.
One of the questions asked was whether or not he was a fan of Michigan. Lawrence responded by hitting the ‘no’ button, and then for good measure, hit the same button again.
Here was a man who went through a hellacious accident in an unfamiliar place, who doctors thought wouldn’t wake up from the coma. In an article by The Columbus Dispatch, Zach’s family was told by doctors that the chance of him waking up were “pretty much nonexistent”.
And yet, his road to recovery went through acknowledging his dislike of Michigan.
This isn’t the first time the rivalry has been used in someone’s recovery. Back in 2013, Grant Reed, then a seventh grader, had brain cancer. However, he never called it cancer; he called it ‘Michigan.’ And like the recent trend of results on the gridiron, Reed ended up beating his version of Michigan, too.
That’s the personal impact ‘The Game’ has on everyday life. On the actual day Ohio State-Michigan face each other, the environment—hours before game time— is electric. It doesn’t matter if you are a fan or a member of the media: You can’t deny the fact that ‘The Game’ has a different feel to it, and the level of intensity it brings to the table can’t be duplicated by any other rivalry in any other sport.
At the 2006 edition of OSU-UM, dubbed as ‘The Game of the Century’ by the media, for hours before kickoff to hours after the game went final, the atmosphere in Columbus was rocking. Even in later contests that didn’t feature Ohio State and Michigan in the No. 1 or No. 2 spots, the atmosphere is still something that can’t be duplicated.
From the Lonestar Showdown between Texas A&M and Texas, to a Penn State white out, the atmosphere at those events could not be matched to what Ohio State and Michigan bring to the table.
From the atmosphere at games, to the personal level the rivalry affects everyday people, to the game itself, Ohio State-Michigan is more than a game; it’s a part of life.

Recent recruiting predictions show Ohio State gaining ground for 4-star point guard
Geoff Hammersley via our friends at Land-Grant Holy Land
Visit their fantastic blog and read the full article (and so much more) here
The class of 2018 prospect set his visit date to see the Buckeyes last week.
Even though it’s the offseason, the Ohio State basketball program is continuing to make noise. On Wednesday, head coach Chris Holtmann addressed season ticket holders at The Schottenstein Center about his transition from Butler to OSU, and answered some questions from the audience. This capped off a pretty solid day for OSU basketball, as they got some good news on their pursuit of a four-star point guard from Florida.
Recruiting experts weigh in on Weaver
Last week, Jeff Borzello of ESPN tweeted out that four-star PG Elijah Weaver (Oldsmar, FL /Oldsmar Christian School) set official visit dates to three schools: USC (9/2), Ohio State (9/9), and Florida (9/16).
While all three schools are behind the favored Villanova Wildcats for the No. 8 PG in the 2018 class, Ohio State seems to be gaining some ground. The 247sports Crystal ball prediction had another expert weigh in their opinion, and that expert, Jerry Meyer, has Weaver going to OSU. In the early going, 11 recruiting analysts have made predictions on where they think Weaver will end up; of those 11, three votes have been cast for the Buckeyes—and seven for the Wildcats. The good news for OSU fans: recruiting experts have picked Weaver to be a Buckeye in consecutive days.
Over the summer, OSU has been ramping up their pursuit of a Weaver commitment. On June 11, the Buckeyes made the offer to the PG and joined the fray with 25 other programs. There is still plenty of time until the 2018 class has to make final decisions on where they will attend the school of their choice.
That means there is plenty of time for the Buckeyes to make a push for Weaver to commit to playing college basketball in Columbus, Ohio.
A change?
While the basketball program has time to persuade a prospect to become a Buckeye, time is of the essence for Ohio State’s football program and their pursuit of four-star wide receiver L’Christian “Blue” Smith (Dayton, OH/Wayne).
Or is it?
Smith, who has a slated commitment date of August 27, made this tweet on Tuesday evening:
The No. 4 prospect in Ohio’s 2018 recruiting class, the Buckeyes are in a battle with the Kentucky Wildcats to keep Smith within state lines. However, recents events seem to point to the Buckeyes as the landing spot for Smith. Back in mid-June, Smith took part in a camp at OSU, and back in July, he attended the famed ‘Friday Night Lights’ camp, according to 247sports.
Will the commitment date move up? We’ll have the date and time when it is known.

Ohio State sends out official scholarship offers
Dan Hessler via our friends at Land-Grant Holy Land
Visit their fantastic blog and read the full article (and so much more) here
Multiple Ohio State commits and targets received their official scholarship offers today.
Aug. 1 marks the first day college football programs are allowed to officially send out scholarship offers to high school seniors, according to NCAA rule 13.9.2.2.
“Prior to August 1 of a prospective student-athlete’s senior year in high school, an institution shall not provide a written offer of athletically-related financial aid or indicate in writing to the prospective student-athlete that an athletically-related grant-in-aid will be offered by the institution.”
Because of this, multiple Ohio State commitments and targets took to Twitter to show off their official scholarship offers - and per the usual, the Ohio State graphics design team did a fantastic job.
Below is a running list of those who received their offer today:
Can't wait to sign in December
