Dev from Buckeye Boyz is doing an interview with RB Tranard Roberts tonight. It's cool he's able to get some of these recruits on his show. He had Edmund McAllister on last night.

Roberts said he's now 6'1-207. He had a laser timed 4.32 40 yard dash too.

Roberts mentioned visiting OSU a couple times this season. Talks to coach Lock every single day. It'll be interesting to see how the rb class turns out.

Sounds to me a bit that tOSU is going to stand with current RB room. Even though it 'sounds' like a couple will exit via the portal this year. All pretty young, underclassmen, and all believe they should be RB1. Very much expect tOSU to be active in the portal this year, looking for an OL (always), as well as an experienced RB. And anything else they deem necessary.

Could be the case, but are they watching the same RB group that I am? Not saying we don't need a portal addition or two (WE DO), but I am an advocate of having a darn good one in each class if you can do it without overpaying. The NIL part is where I think we all are going to have to see what a RB is really worth - we aren't paying up for the position and maybe that is the right move.

Or, we will have subpar RB play despite having a good-great OL and rethink things. Jury is still out in my eyes. I will say J. Jackson is starting to look like a beast and we of course know Sermon was a monster homerun in the portal. Then Bo has had some really big moments and he was a fairly highly rated guy we took from HS. I think there is a balance we still need to figure out.

Looks like with Roberts, we are not engaging on whatever the price is (like with the big RB that went to Tennessee last year, already forgot his name). We'll see, but I would've liked to have seen Roberts in this class. Oh well.
