Ohio State is trying to secure a top 5 DE out of Maryland

Urban Meyer and the Ohio State Buckeyes are constantly looking to add to the already top-rated recruiting class.

Ohio State and Maryland are neck and neck for a four-star DE


Ohio State has brought in some of the best DE's in the country under Urban Meyer. The Buckeye football head coach has has developed them into game-changing players who are now playing in the NFL, or soon will be.

Meyer and assistant coach Larry Johnson will hope to see this trend continue with Chase Young (Hyattsville, Md. / DeMatha). Viewed as the No. 4 rated Weak-Side DE in the 2017 recruiting class, according to 247Sports Composite ratings, Young has expressed mutual interest in the Buckeyes. He took a two-day visit to Columbus at the start of the month, but Meyer will need to continue to make contact with Young throughout his recruitment because if he chooses to spurn the Buckeyes, they will likely have to play against him for the next three to four years.

It was reported yesterday that both Ohio State and Maryland "stand out to Young." Most would think that this would bode well for the Buckeyes, and it does, however, Young is from Maryland and told SBNation that he won't choose one school over the other just because of wins and losses.

There is still plenty of time left in Young's recruitment, and he holds offers from most of the top programs in the country, so anything can theoretically happen. It would be a huge pick-up for the Buckeyes to land one of the top 100 players in his class as he would be joining four-stars DT's Haskell Garrett and Jerron Cage on the defensive line in the '17 class.


Elite OT announces Ohio State offer


Jackson Carman (Fairfield, Ohio / Fairfield) is a name that may sound familiar to those who follow Ohio State football recruiting. The four-star OT was reportedly offered a scholarship from Ohio State late last year. However, yesterday, the top 20 overall player of the 2018 recruiting class officially announced the offer over Twitter.



Despite being only a sophomore in high school, Carman holds offers from some of the best schools in the country. It is difficult to grade players this young, so the fact that the 6-foot-6, 305 pound tackle is already viewed as a four and five prospect by most recruiting databases, speaks volumes to his potential.

Ohio State should have an advantage recruiting Carman, as he lives less than two hours away from the school's campus. Meyer has made it a priority to recruit players from in-state high schools, so expect the staff to get him on campus sooner rather than later.

Chase Hounshell to transfer from Notre Dame to Ohio State


Current Notre Dame Fighting Irish student-athlete Chase Hounshell announced his decision to transfer to the Buckeyes after he graduates this semester. Hounshell, who was originally recruited as a DE and switched to TE, will provide Ohio State with depth at one of the few positions with little experience.



Roster spots for next season are running low, but Hounshell will be a preferred walk-on and therefore, will not count against the Buckeyes scholarship count.

Hounshell has multiple connections to Ohio State, the first being he is a Mentor, Ohio native. Hounshell also built a relationship with Meyer during his original recruitment process. He was once committed to Meyer during his time at Florida before signing his letter of intent with Notre Dame.

Tight End is an interesting position for Ohio State this year. Marcus Baugh all but solidified the starting spot at the position in last weekend's spring game and the Buckeyes have two incoming freshmen in Jake Hausmann and Luke Farrell. Look for Hounshell to provide blocking and experience at the position, while the two true freshmen learn to play up to the level of Big Ten football.

Braxton Miller threw the first pitch at Reds-Rockies and it was a strike
Nick Polak via our friends at Land-Grant Holy Land
Visit their fantastic blog and read the full article (and so much more) here


Let's make sure Braxton gets drafted by the Bengals so we can see this happen, like, once a week.

Leave it to Braxton Miller to make throwing out the first pitch at a baseball game even more fun than it would normally be. Typically, a celebrity guest who makes an appearance to toss out a ceremonial first pitch will step out wearing the jersey of the team playing with their own name on the back, wave for the crowd, proceed to gently toss a ball high and away (unless you're Ronald Reagan, then you throw two pitches) and move on. Braxton chose to make his pitch a little more fun, however.

Let's run down the list of things that made this so awesome.

-On the way out to the mound, Miller pulled off a spin move. You know, kinda like this one.

-He threw the pitch while Hang On Sloopy played throughout the stadium.

-He brought his son out with him.

-Before the pitch, he wore a signed Pete Rose jersey.

-He proceeded to play catch afterwards with one of the only players in baseball who can probably match his athleticism, in Billy Hamilton.

-He did this all while wearing a cabana hat.

-And most importantly, we actually got to watch Braxton Miller throw a ball for just the second time since 2013.





Well played, Braxton.

Urban Meyer says Cardale Jones can succeed in the NFL with the right coaching staff
Alexis Chassen via our friends at Land-Grant Holy Land
Visit their fantastic blog and read the full article (and so much more) here


Jones' relationship with the staff of whatever team drafts him, will be the difference between his success and failure.

"It's going to be dictated by the team that takes him, the amount of patience and the relationship he develops with the quarterback coach."

- Urban Meyer via Marla Ridenour of the Akron Beacon Journal


Ohio State quarterback Cardale Jones is surely giving many NFL teams sleepless nights, with his limited game tape and colorful personality, his ability to have success at the next level is widely debated.

Urban Meyer recently spoke with the Akron Beacon Journal, and spoke in detail about the maturation of a man that once claimed he wasn't at Ohio State "to play school" and that the team and situation he is put in will dictate his success as an NFL player. The head coach noted that Jones is very much a relationship guy, and that the bond with his quarterbacks coach and other staff is vital to his performance on the field.

Meyer specifically noted Jones having a hard time adjusting when former quarterbacks coach Tom Herman left for University of Houston after their Championship season, and that for the large quarterback, discipline could be where he succeeds or fails.

"Whoever drafts him will have to have a little bit of patience," Meyer said, according to the Akron Beacon Journal. "The unfortunate thing in the NFL: there's not a whole lot of patience."

Meyer ranked Jones' size as a 10 and his accuracy and football knowledge an 8 out of 10. Jones has been getting some extra help ahead of the NFL Draft, working out on the west coast with George Whitfield Jr. and is focused on his mechanics and fundamentals.

"Miller grew up in Springfield. He also attended a Reds game with the Buckeyes in 2015 when they were honored for winning the national championship."

- David Jablonski, Dayton Daily News


Ohio State's quarterback turned receiver will throw out the ceremonial first pitch at Great American Ball Park, Monday at 7:10 p.m. before the Cincinnati Reds take on the Colorado Rockies.

This may be Miller's second time visiting GABP -- the first being in 2015 following the National Championship win --, but this will be his first time taking the mound. The former quarterback shouldn't have any problem making it to plate, but just how accurate will he be?

Miller isn't the only NFL-bound Buckeye to take the mound for the Reds, Columbus-native Darron Lee -- also a former high school quarterback -- will try his hand at the ceremonial pitch on Wednesday before the 12:35 p.m. game against the Rockies.

"Running backs aren't supposed to be taken at the top of the first round, the current rule holds, but Elliott's versatility and supreme talent suggest that he's worth ignoring the rules altogether."

- Bill Barnwell, ESPN


There are some standard practices when it comes to the NFL Draft, but it seems like every year there is at least one team that is willing to buck the trend for that rare exception of a player. Barnwell at ESPN argues that this year's exception is the Buckeye running back, Ezekiel Elliott.

Barnwell describes Elliott as, "the athletic, powerful, short-on-weaknesses running back who has drawn comparisons to Adrian Peterson."

The long held belief has been to avoid using high first round picks on running backs, with Todd Gurley going at No. 10 overall in 2015, surprising quite a few experts. Elliott's versatility and "supreme talent" could cause teams to clamor their way to the top of the draft board to try and snag the block-happy, do-everything back.

With running backs having considerably shorter careers than at other positions, a lot more is riding on teams to decipher between potential booms and/or busts heading into the draft. If Elliott ends up being the next Adrian Peterson, whatever team he lands with will consider it a win; if the young back follows the career of Trent Richardson, however, the future will look a lot less bright.

"Saturday, more people gathered to watch an Ohio State practice than there were in total attendance for every Akron home game..."

- Jason Kirk, SB Nation


Not only did Ohio State break the all-time attendance record for a spring game at any university in the country, ever(!), but they also account for four of the top ten attendances for a spring game in history.

The Urban Meyer era, also ushered in a new environment in the spring, one that doesn't consider a Saturday in April a mere scrimmage, but rather one that illicit a game-day experience each and every time the football team takes the field in Ohio Stadium.

Ohio State holds the top three spots in all-time attendance numbers, from years 2009, 2015 and 2016, but also holds the No. 10 spot with 81,112, from Meyer's first year as head coach, 2012. As far as rivalries go, Alabama holds four spots, No.s 5 thru 8, but Michigan has never had over 80,000 people attend their spring game.

Notre Dame Tight End transferring to Ohio State
Scott via our good friends at Buckeye Battle Cry
Visit their fantastic blog and read the full article (and so much more) here


Notre Dame tight end Chase Hounshell announced on Twitter Monday morning that he is transferring to Ohio State.
“I can’t thank ND enough but I am excited to announce I will be transferring to THE Ohio State University! Go Bucks! ” Hounshell tweeted.
Because he is a graduate transfer, he is eligible to play this fall. He will be a walk-on and will not count against OSU’s scholarship limit, according to media reports.
Hounshell originally committed to Coach Urban Meyer when he was at Florida but flipped to the Irish when Meyer stepped down. Hounshell appeared in 13 games last season, making three starts. He had one catch for six yards against Wake Forest.

Since he is a graduate transfer, Hounshell will be eligible immediately for the Buckeyes. The Mentor native coul add depth to the tight end position, where Marcus Baugh appears to be the starter. Two other freshman will join Hounshell in the fall and provide depth behind the spring game standout
Hounshell began his career as a defensive lineman, making four tackles in 2011 and two tackles in 2014. He missed all but one game in 2012 and the entire 2013 season because of injury. He was granted a sixth year of eligibility because of the two missed seasons.
The 6-foot-4, 255-pound Ohio native is a graduate of Lake Catholic High School in Mentor.

Ohio State to add graduate transfer tight end from Notre Dame
Matt Brown via our friends at Land-Grant Holy Land
Visit their fantastic blog and read the full article (and so much more) here


The Buckeyes could be getting some additional depth at tight end and special teams.

Space on Ohio State's football roster is tight, and will be tight for the next several months. But that doesn't mean that the Buckeyes aren't looking for opportunities to add depth at important positions. It appears that one position group could be getting a talent infusion very soon.

According to Bucknuts, Ohio State is expected to add Chase Hounshell from Notre Dame as a graduate transfer tight end once Hounshell finishes up his last semester with the Irish. Hounshell reportedly would be joining as a preferred walk-on, so he would not count against Ohio State's scholarship count.

Hounshell confirmed the report with this tweet:


Hounshell, who is originally from Mentor, Ohio, was a three-star prospect out of high school that courted offers from programs like Florida, Michigan State and Wisconsin, before deciding to head to Notre Dame. In fact, he even has some history with Urban Meyer.


Originally a defensive lineman, Hounshell switched to tight end after missing multiple years due to injury. He appeared in seven games as a true freshman defensive lineman, and another 13, including three starts, as a tight end.

Marcus Baugh is almost certainly entrenched as a starting tight end for Ohio State, but there's very little experience behind him at the moment. Also fighting for playing time will be redshirt freshman A.J. Alexander, and blue-chip true freshmen Jake Hausmann and Luke Farrell. Another experienced option to provide leadership and depth, either at tight end or on special teams, can only be a good thing for Ohio State.

The False Prophecy Of Jimbo
jcollingsworth via our good friends at Buckeye Battle Cry
Visit their fantastic blog and read the full article (and so much more) here


10-3 in the first year at TTUN. 39-24 college record overall – which includes Stanford and the University of San Diego. Signed as the 2nd highest paid college coach in all of the NCAA at $7,000,400 per year; that comes to $700,040 per victory.

I speak of Jim Harbaugh – TTUN’s Head Coach.

Yep! The very same that donned sweatpants and slept over at a recruits home – while on another occasion climbed a tree to impress yet another recruit.

Yes we are speaking of the same Jim Harbaugh who angrily got into a twitter snip with OSU Athletic Director Gene Smith by tossing out the tattoo fiasco. But when Ezekiel Elliott jumps into the fray with his own twitter responses by suggesting when you speak of a rivalry you must first win a rivalry game. OMG! Now I read he will not be a Baltimore Raven because he had the audacity to bad mouth a Harbaugh.

Please! Who really would want to be a Raven anyway?

Obviously Michigan fans know football I mean these are the people who cheered when Tom Brady got benched for Drew Henson.

Okay – I’m back….

So much is being pinned on the future of TTUN’s return to greatness in College Football. It all starts with a coach who was their quarterback in the mid-eighties from 1983-86 who attempted 620 passes and connected on 387 of them for 31 Touchdowns with 22 interceptions. TTUN’s leading all-time passer in yardage is Chad Henne with 9,715. Though in fairness to the sleepover king at the time of his 5,449 yards it was the record.

The 49ers Jed York stood in a news conference and stated without any evidence of reservations: “Ultimately we came to the conclusion that it was best for us to go in different directions.” Word around the NFL was that Harbaugh felt he was deserving of more control. This isn’t so uncommon for Coaches in the Pro’s or College. But in order to gain the control they seek they often have leverage – such as a ton of wins – or Championships. In 4 years with San Francisco he went 44-19-1. With 2 first place sittings only to lose to the Giants in the NFC Championship game in 2011. In 2012 he lost to his brother and the Ravens in Super Bowl XLVII. Hardly leverage to earn that right for total “barking” orders.

But TTUN is in a hurt. They need relevance again. Their drought has been long and painful. They have not defeated the Buckeyes since 2011. And to add to the misery since 1994 the Buckeyes hold a 15-7 wins versus loss ratio.

Now the game plan of the brilliant sporting geniuses up in Ann Arbor feel that an unwanted egomaniac NFL Coach that once quarterbacked them will return them to the Promised Land. As difficult as some may see the correlation to my upcoming comparison I find urgency in stating it regardless – and that is the logic perpetrated in the hiring of Jim Harbaugh as the new Head Coach of the TTUN Football Program would be similar to The Ohio State University hiring Art Schlichter whenever he becomes available. I understand Schlichter has a little more of a tainted history and zero experience at coaching – football anyway – and the comparison certainly will seem ludicrous – if not plain stupid. But hear me out! Schlichter is more likeable. Period. That’s all I have. And it’s true. He may steal your silverware and put it on eBay but he won’t sleepover at your house with your teenage son or climb a tree to impress a teenage boy. Personally speaking I’d rather lose my silverware. It would give me bragging rights: “Schlichter got ripped off” would be my opener.

I understand that perhaps I may be dipping a tad too far into the gutter. But Jim Harbaugh and his clear-cut oddity welcome it. I am only attempting to warn our friends from the Roadkill heap up north that this man is closer to Jim Jones then Bo Schembechler. Be warned! The program may see a surge at some point – but will crash – and Jimbo will move on leaving his tsunami-style in the wake.

Other than that – Congrats to all my TTUN friends up north – You all deserve one another.
