Per Michigan and Kentucky reporters, OSU is not expected to be much of a factor for in-state S Tristin Hughes.
Most likely reason being is I think we're going to add a portal guy to backfill Little. And then go all-out financially for Barner in '28. Don't want to tie up a lot of capital for other guys at the position.

I think some of the issues with team talent the last couple seasons is trying to lock down the state. That works good for a Tressel circa early 2000's team, but in this day and age, there needs to be a priority on top talent available and moving resources towards them. They maybe drawing a line financially for in state projects.

This season there is a noticeable lack of NFL quality players on the team, and its showing up in the games.

I dont think they have been trying to lock down the state as much as they missed on some of their Plan A recruits, and fell back on OH GUYS. No knock on the in state guys but OSU missed on Carsyn Baker and Derrek Cooper only to land Akih. Missing on Kelvin Obot for Landry Brede or Nigel Smith for Dominic Kirks. If OSU passes on Hughes I’m hoping they find the right fit in the Portal and Barner becomes an absolute need

I think OSU needs to up the amount they are willing to spend. The better players don't seem to be jumping around as much as they used to, which means portal acquisitions will be more difficult. If OSU is not willing to play, they will become increasingly less relevant.

I think whomever is in charge of evaluating transfers needs to also up their game if they're going to pay more. Because if they're going to start paying more, they're going to need to have better evaluations
