Episode 050: Can the Buckeyes stop Deshaun Watson? Will players skipping bowl games become an epidemic?
December 29, 2016 18:40 - 35 minutes - 20.6 MBThe College football season is nearly complete. It has been an exciting bowl season as it usually is, but not its time for the main event. The College Football Playoff is here. With Alabama vs. Washington and Clemson vs. Ohio State, fans get to see some of the biggest brands in the sport. The only problem is both the Peach and Fiesta Bowl are on New Year’s Eve. Grayson Allen Duke has long be one of the NCAA hoops Blue Bloods. Coach K runs a clean program and while you may not lik...
Episode 049: THE GAME, The Rankings & Jabrill Peppers: Sizzle or Substance?
December 01, 2016 03:14 - 34 minutes - 19.9 MBWhat a wild and wonderful weekend in college football. Sure, outside of THE GAME there really weren’t any terrific games, but sometimes that happens. Nearly every favorite won over the three day college football feast, that started on Thanksgiving and poured long into Saturday night. The status quo was preserved on the final weekend of the regular season, but now it is Championship Saturday and the real fun begins. Alabama, Clemson, and Washington The three amigos hanging aro...
Episode 048: Thirteen week of Football down, it now all hinges on THE GAME? Are the Bucks Prepared?
November 23, 2016 17:34 - 29 minutes - 40.6 MBMichigan The Wolverines were able to fend off a tough Indiana team under a blanket of snow Saturday afternoon. However it was a game that left much to be desired. John O’Korn filled in for the injured Wilton Speight, but it couldn’t have been encouraging for the Michigan faithful. Outside of a few throws and a terrific 3rd and long scramble, O’Korn was largely ineffective and relied on a heavily on De’Veon Smith to power the offense. Will Speight play this week? Harbaugh would like eve...
Episode 047: College Football Chaos, but does Ohio State have the juice to make it into the Playoff?
November 18, 2016 01:28 - 27 minutes - 15.8 MBMichigan The blood letting in college football finally happened… it wasn’t pretty for the top three or the top five in the CFP rankings. Michigan was upset to an Iowa team that has greatly underachieved this season. In the midst of the loss it appears the Wolverines lost their quarterback Wilton Speight for the season. A three point road loss on the road didn’t appear to have much of an effect on their CFP Ranking. Clemson and Washington Clemson and Washington suffered much...
Episode 046: The CFP Unexpected Movement & The Buckeye Offense is back, can it still get better?
November 11, 2016 00:09 - 26 minutes - 15.4 MBThe College Football Playoff After the first CFP rankings came out, everyone was left scratching their collective heads. How could a one lost Texas A&M team be ranked ahead of an undefeated Washington squad, who had been destroying the entire PAC 12? The Aggie experiment was short lived as they were knocked off by Mississippi State and lost their quarterback, Trevor Knight, in the process. Under the old AP and Coaches Polling system Washington would have naturally slid into the #...
Episode 045: The 1st CFP Poll & Can the Buckeye Offense finally return to early season form?
November 04, 2016 00:38 - 29 minutes - 16.7 MBNorthwestern was supposed to be the game that put the Buckeye offense back on track. It looked like that would be the case. With the 1st drive Ohio State drove down quickly down the field for a touchdown. However the rest of the game wasn’t that easy and while the offensive line played much better; some of the same issues arose in the passing game. The Silver Bullet Defense Even though the Buckeye defense yielded 17 points against the Wildcats, it was a solid performance as usual...
Episode 044: Will the Buckeyes rebound from Penn State? College Football Week 9 Preview & What went wrong last week?
October 28, 2016 00:44 - 31 minutes - 18.1 MBOhio State ran into the Penn State buzz saw in the 3rd quarter on Saturday night. After going up 14 points and having the ball twice on their own 40 to start drives, the Buckeyes had a chance to put the Nittany Lions away. They didn’t and were rewarded with a four quarter game. Where one play could shift the balance of momentum and it did. The offensive line struggled on the edges and the wide receivers couldn’t separate. Penn State didn’t do much, but they were highly effective at pre...
Episode 043: College Football Week 8 Preview and the Buckeyes heads to The Beave at night
October 21, 2016 00:51 - 30 minutes - 17.5 MBMichigan was off and Clemson received manna from heaven. Those 2 events were apparently enough to help the Wolverines jump to third in the AP rankings. Not that it matters anyway, but now the Saturday after Thanksgiving is shaping up to be the Game of the Century Part Deax. Which will be a win for everyone in the College Football world. On the other hand Clemson must be living right. To watch NC State push a 35 yard game winning field goal as time expired absolutely took years off of Dabo Sw...
Episode 042: College Football Week 7 Preview and Ohio State travels to Wisconsin
October 13, 2016 20:00 - 25 minutes - 14.8 MBMichigan embarrassed Rutgers to the tune of 78-0. It’s a score you rarely seen in college football and even more scarce between conference opponents. Jim Harbaugh is trying to send a message to the rest of the college football world. Maybe it’s that his Wolverines are good or maybe it’s that is he partially crazy. Both are true, but beating a team 78-0 generally comes back to haunt a coach. The PAC 12 is officially a mess. The conference powers of the last few seasons and in their plac...
Episode 041: College Football Week 6 Preview, The Indiana Upset & Can Louisville still make the Playoff?
October 06, 2016 16:37 - 30 minutes - 17.4 MBWeek 5 in College Football season was a wild one. There were terrific games all across the county, huge upsets and classic matchups that will determine the fate of the College Football Playoff. Clemson outlasted the Louisville Cardinals in the ABC prime time contest. It was a game that did not disappoint. However the down marker on the final play of the game led to a controversial ending. Despite the win, Lamar Jackson outplayed Deshaun Watson and is now firmly in the driver seat for the Hei...
Episode 040: College Football Week 5 Preview, Rutgers v. Ohio State, & What happened at LSU?
September 29, 2016 17:58 - 28 minutes - 38.6 MBThe Week 4 College football slate was solid to say the least. There were some great games and some unexpected outcomes. LSU couldn’t get a much needed win to save their head coaches job. The loss to Auburn was a microcosm of Miles’s tenure at LSU. Play well enough to keep it close, but commit costly errors at the end of the game that end up in a loss. LSU was more talented than Auburn, but not better coached and because of the archaic offense it was finally time to move on. Ohi...
Episode 039: OSU v OU Recap, College Football Week 4 Preview & A new AP Top 10
September 22, 2016 16:40 - 26 minutes - 15.1 MBWeek 4 of the College Football Season did not disappoint. All of the big games lived up to the drama, except one and everyone stayed locked on Florida State at Louisville because of the disbelief in what they were seeing. Lamar Jackson absolutely undressed the Seminole defense and that’s what Petrino’s Cardinals are ranked 3rd in the nation. Ohio State strolled into Norman about a three point favorite, they rolled out with over a 20 point lead. It was a result that shocked most across ...
Episode 038: College Football Week, Tulsa look back & OSU v. OU Preview
September 16, 2016 03:45 - 25 minutes - 14.8 MBCollege football has been on a roller coaster ride through 3 weeks. Week 1 was packed with terrific matchups; Week 2 left something to be desired as far as matchups go, but still had some solid games. Week 3 promises to be a gem. There are 4 great games with the 1st game kicking at noon. Louisville v. FSU kicks off the day, Ole Miss v. Bama at 3:30 and the evening entrées of MSU v. ND and OSU v. OU Saturday promise to keep your day as unproductive as ever. Ohio State and Oklahoma looke...
Episode 037: CFB Week 2 Preview, OSU v. Tulsa & Remembering 9/11
September 08, 2016 16:12 - 29 minutes - 16.8 MBWeek one of CFB lived up to its billing. Rarely when something is called “the best ever” does it meet expectations. Week 1 did, but Week 2 will disappoint. With a dynamic AP Poll, very little should change this week given that there are no Top 25 matchups. It’s a barren wasteland and thus time to only watch the games you care about. OSU looked great in their shredding of Bowling Green, but it didn’t tell us much. Tulsa is better than BG, but by how much? I don’t think Buckeye Fans shou...
Episode 036: Football is back, OSU’s Depth Chart, Preview BGST, & Heisman hopefuls
September 02, 2016 15:00 - 26 minutes - 9.2 MBFootball is back… and I for one am excited. The opening weekend has some of the best matchups in recent memory.

College football fans will be able to benchmark teams against tough competition in the opening weekend. Urban Meyer release Ohio State’s depth chart for the 1st time this season. Typically there are 22 starters between the offense and defense… OSU has nearly 30. It’s due all of ...

July 29, 2016 15:41 - 33 minutes - 18.9 MBKurt Coleman’s road through the NFL hasn’t been an easy one. From his humble beginnings at Ohio State that began with a tragedy, to a rough third season; Kurt has been a consummate professional. He managed to keep a positive attitude through the entire process. Not an easy feat, he’s now on top, so what’s next? Topics: Time at OSU Relationship with Tyson Gentry Rocky Road of the NFL
Episode 034: A Cleveland Parade, Olympic Hoop, Free Agency and Thrones
July 02, 2016 14:31 - 31 minutes - 18.3 MBCleveland hadn’t won a title in over 50 years, so it seemed fitting that their Championship parade would run long. Lebron poured his heart on the stage and it was littered with profanity. It bothered some and excited others. NBA free agency here and owners are throwing around cash like drunken sailors. Mozqov got paid big $$$ by the Lakers, he is only one example. The problem is for me is now many young players under 30 are declining to represent the USA in the Olympics. It bothers me ...
Episode 033: Can theCavs win Game Six? OJ: Made in America, & GOT Episode 8
June 15, 2016 23:08 - 30 minutes - 17.3 MBAll hope seamed lost. The Cavs fell apart late in Game 4 and blew seemingly any chance of a NBA. However, an improbable win in Game 5 changed the paradigm. Although the “Nutcracker” Green didn’t play, the Cavs have a home game to force a seventh and decisive game. It’s not how many planned it, but there still is hope. How can the Cavs find a win? There is a path. OJ Simpson is one of the most intriguing sports characters in American history. His rise from the slums of San Francisco to ...
Episode 032: Cavs crack the win column, Beer in the Shoe for ALL & GOT Wrap up
June 09, 2016 15:49 - 30 minutes - 18 MBThe term “must win” in sports is used almost to the point of nausea. However, if the Cavs were going to have any hope of winning a NBA Title Game 3 was a “must win.” There was no way to expect Cleveland to reel of 4 straight against the best regular season team in NBA history. They turned in a performance for the ages and not a moment too soon. The House that Harley built had been around for nearly a century, however there has never been beer sold through the entire stadium on game day...
Episode 031: OSU LB Joe Burger talks offseason training, Cavs Chances, & Thrones Theories
May 27, 2016 16:45 - 31 minutes - 17.8 MBFormer walk-on LB Joe Burger may hail from Cincinnati, but he still loves one Cleveland team. The La Salle alum joins According to Carp to describe what “Patriot Week” means to OSU Football team and how Coach “Mick” keeps “The Grind Fresh” with a number of specialty themes throughout the offseason training program. What would be more appropriate heading into Memorial Day Weekend than Patriot Week. The Cavs now have control of the Eastern Conference Finals and seemed poised to head to t...
Episode 030: Beau Bishop, Thrones and Satellite Camps is there anything better?
May 13, 2016 15:37 - 49 minutes - 28.4 MBThe NBA playoffs are in full force and the Cleveland Cavs are rolling, but who will they play? The East appears to be garbage, but who do they match up with best? Beau and I discuss the potential matchups and if the Cavs can bring an NBA banner home to Cleveland? Jim Harbaugh has set the college football world on fire with his spring ball road show. With NCAA lifting the Satellite Camp ban, it has opened up the entire world to him.

Episode 029: The NFL Draft Recap, What Buckeye picks I like best, & Reinstating Satellite Camps
May 04, 2016 15:25 - 36 minutes - 20.9 MBThe 2016 NFL Draft was filled with excitement and trades. Very few years will see a 1st round with the level of team movement what was witnessed this year. After an uneventful 2015, this year’s draft started off with a bang. Two blockbuster trades for two quarterbacks before a single second had ticked off the clock. That type of aggressive behavior set the stage for a 1st round that saw the Browns move twice, five Buckeyes drafted and three in the top 10. Overall 12 Buckeyes were drafted in ...
Episode 028: The Ohio State Spring Game Recap, Remembering Will Smith & Browns draft outlook
April 18, 2016 15:42 - 32 minutes - 18.7 MBSpring football is finally over. Every year the Spring Game punctuates the 15 practices over the previous 6 weeks. There are players who will have breakout performances in the Spring Game, but does that carry over to the fall? Often times no, but that doesn’t mean that is can’t. Michael Thomas has proved to be the spring exception. Who else stepped up this year? Did Joe Burrow solidify his hold on the backup QB job? The Tennessee Titans made the trade of the draft with the LA Rams. The R...
Episode 027: The Buckeye Spring Ball Progression and the Hoop’s Frosh Transfer Issue
April 01, 2016 12:00 - 36 minutes - 21.2 MBOhio State’s spring ball is nearly half over, but there are still many unresolved issues. Urban Meyer and the Buckeye staff are still looking to solve some of the position problems that occurred with the departure of 16 starters from both sides of the ball. The only way to determine who can handle the pressure is to turn up the heat and that is exactly what Urban has been doing to the O Line, Wide Receivers and QB’s. Even though JT Barrett is the incumbent starter, a back up must still emerg...
Episode 026: Michael Thomas tells his story from Cali to Fork Union to OSU and ultimately the NFL
March 30, 2016 00:29 - 31 minutes - 10.8 MBI am always curious how a kid from southern California, with no Ohio ties, ends up at OSU. Michael Thomas had every reason to stay on the west coast. He is the nephew of NFL legend and former USC Trojan Keshawn Johnson, but some how ended up in the Buckeye state. Maybe it was his one year stint at Fork Union Military Academy that led to his love for Ohio State or maybe it was his future college QB Cardale Jones, who convinced him to join him in Columbus? Michael answers why he came and who h...
Episode 025: Who helped themselves at OSU’s Pro Day? The Spring Ball Week 1 Review
March 15, 2016 03:00 - 33 minutes - 11.6 MBPro Day has come and gone, but did any former Buckeye help their draft stock? Or more importantly did anyone damage their professional future. We will break down every player performance and did they meet the expectations laid out before them. It was a spectacular sight on the turf at the Woody Hayes Athletic Facility. Both NFL Network and ESPN were broadcasting live during the duration of Pro Day, while BTN televised most of the drill work from their elevated position on the catwalk. Wh...
Episode 024: Who needs a strong performance at OSU’s Pro Day? What did Peyton Manning mean to the NFL?
March 09, 2016 17:42 - 33 minutes - 11.4 MBPro Day is always an eventful experience and it is especially true this year at OSU. With the 2016 OSU draft class poised to potentially break the 1st Rounders and the total players drafted records, it is a safe assumption to say the Woody Hayes will be packed with scouts. More than just scouts, there will be a plethora of GM’s and Head Coaches in attendance to get a first hand account of what players could be sculpting the future of their respective franchise. There will be stress for the p...
Episode 023: A Behind the Scenes look at the NFL Combine, Stories You Never Hear
February 29, 2016 16:15 - 27 minutes - 9.51 MBThe NFL Combine is the first major test of every future NFLer. The experience will differ for every player depending on position and prospective draft status. However, one thing remains constant; the long stressful days that lead to sleep deprived nights. It’s a test that can challenge even the most mentally tough men. More than the physical on field testing, it is the evening interviews that challenge players the most. Tough, invasive questions will force a player out of his comfort zone an...
Episode 022: Jake Ballard’s road to Ohio State and becoming a Super Bowl Champion
February 17, 2016 15:14 - 38 minutes - 13.1 MBRecruiting can be a tough business and Jake Ballard knows it the story all to well. It would be easy to assume a successful player like Jake had an early offer from OSU. What I found out might shock you. His road to Ohio State was far from perfect, but it’s safe to say he made the right decision. The decision eventually led him to the New York Giants and even after a long successful tenure with the Buckeyes, he was back at square one in the NFL. The NFL transition wasn’t smooth for Jake ...
Episode 021: James Laurinaitis tells his story from a no name from Minnesota to an OSU Legend
February 14, 2016 19:40 - 35 minutes - 12.3 MBJames Laurinaitis’s journey to Ohio State was as unusual as they come. The son of a professional wrestler, “The Animal” was a legendary member of the Legion of Doom. Joe, his father, raised him in the Land of 10,000 Lakes, where hockey, not football dominated the sports landscape. James’s hockey skills were so legendary, that had he chose hockey, many of his coaches thought he would be a 2nd or 3rd round NHL draft pick. James instead elected to focus on football and became the hidden gem...
Episode 020: Beau Bishop’s back to breakdown the Super Bowl and What's next for Peyton Manning
February 09, 2016 16:28 - 45 minutes - 15.5 MBThe Denver Broncos pulled the only of the biggest upsets in Super Bowl history. A 6 point underdog found a way to win by double digits. It was a sloppy game, filled with penalties, turnovers, and offensive miscues. The seemingly unflappable Cam Newton wasn’t able to carry the offense to victory without any semblance of a rushing attack. The loss wasn’t all on Cam’s shoulders, much of the credit should be given to the Denver defense. Wade Phillips utilized his personal brilliantly. Maximizin...

February 05, 2016 04:05 - 28 minutes - 9.7 MBThere are very few offseason sporting to events that rise to the level College Football Signing Day. The first Wednesday in February has nearly risen to the level of a national holiday throughout the college football faithful. It should come as no surprise that most of the teams competing in New Year’s Day Six Bowls finished in the top 25 by nearly every major recruiting agency. The Big Ten has followed up their two solid seasons with 5 teams in the top 25 with OSU and Michigan in the top 10...
Episode 018: Former OSU Captain and 3rd Round Bronco’s Draft Pick Jeff Heuerman talks about the Bucks and NFL
January 27, 2016 18:47 - 35 minutes - 48.1 MBAfter leaving the state of Florida to attend Ohio State, Jeff Heuerman slowly became a star. It wasn’t necessarily for all of the attention he garnered in the passing game, but rather for his elite blocking skills. He became a captain and a corner stone for the 2014 National Championship and ultimately a 3rd round draft pick on the way to the Super Bowl. However his road wasn’t that simple. The trials of 2011, 2012 and 2013 helped shape the identity and focus of not only the team, but also J...
Episode 017: After playing for Belichick and Phillips my keys to Championship Weekend in the NFL
January 22, 2016 05:21 - 26 minutes - 8.94 MBPlaying for a variety of coaching through my NFL tenure has allowed my to gain a unique perspective into many of the NFL matchups throughout the season… None more so than this weekend’s AFC Championship game. After spending three seasons with Wade Phillips and a season with Belichick, I now look at this game in a different light. How do the Pats try slow the Broncos’ running attack? What has Wade Phillips tried against Brady in the past? I’ll let out how I think both coaches will attack thei...
Episode 016: OSU All-American and Indianapolis Colts Guard Jack Mewhort talks his OSU experience and path the NFL

Jack and I discuss how he came to choose Ohio State over the “Team up North” and who were his main recruiting influences. After arriving at OSU, his career took off after his redshirt season, becoming a starting tackle. However, after the resignation of Jim Tressel, he and his teammates endured one of the most difficult stretches in school history. Three coaches in as many seasons, ...
Episode 015: College Football Championship Wrap Up & Way to Early Top 25
January 13, 2016 16:50 - 29 minutes - 39.8 MBThe College football season is finally over. For the fourth time in seven years Bama again reins supreme. How were they able to do it? And even though most of the world hates Lane Kiffin, how must credit does he deserve? I thought his play calling was a crucial piece of Alabama’s success and will expand more upon it. Deshaun Watson is a full grown man. The Vince Young comparisons were abundant on Twitter throughout the course of the game and for good reason. He was almost able to put ...
Episode 014: Beau Bishop talks the Fiesta Bowl Wrap Up, Bucks Future and the Cleveland Mess
January 04, 2016 15:59 - 45 minutes - 62.7 MBOnce again the Gucci Cowboy himself, Beau Bishop, joins the show from Cleveland. As the dust settles on the College Football season we try to define the 2015 season for the Ohio State Buckeyes. What were his feelings watching the Fiesta Bowl romp that could have been far worse had Joey Bosa not been ejected. What are Zeke Elliot’s NFL prospects and will he end up being the first running back taken in the draft? Raekwon McMillan had some kind words for Defensive Coordinator Luke Fickell af...
Episode 013: Dissecting the New Years 6 Bowls, OSU v. ND & Johnny Football has a new ceiling
December 29, 2015 16:39 - 31 minutes - 43.4 MBWe are in the thick of College Football Bowl season and New Year’s Day is quickly approaching. That means the biggest games of the college football season will be commencing with the “New Year’s Six” Bowl games. Two national semi finals in the Cotton (Michigan State v. Alabama) and Orange (Oklahoma v. Clemson) will take center stage on New Year’s Eve. A development I strongly dislike, but that’s when they will be played and I can’t change it. We talk the Peach, Rose, Sugar…. And of course th...
Episode 012: From a 3 Star to OSU Playmaker Darron Lee talks about his quick ascension
December 22, 2015 19:01 - 36 minutes - 50.8 MBNew Albany native Darron Lee played quarterback his entire football career, but when OSU Linebacker coach Luke Fickell came calling, he decided he would be able to switch positions. Darren and I discuss his redshirt year in 2013 and how tough the transition was for a skinny athletic kid to come in and play the type of physically demanding football it takes to earn your keep as a member of the Silver Bullet defense. He talks about the difficulties many of the young players faced during the 20...
Episode 011: OSU Senior Captain and All Big Ten LB Josh Perry joins to talk about his time at OSU
December 14, 2015 17:42 - 37 minutes - 51.3 MBOhio State Linebacker Josh Perry joins the show to discuss his time at Ohio State. Not just the good times, but also the bad. How a Big Ten Championship and Orange Bowl loss in 2013 helped catapult the 2014 team to the 1st Undisputed National Title in College Football history. We discuss his recruitment and development as a Buckeye and how he transformed from a “soft suburban kid” into a three-year starter, captain and All Big Ten Linebacker. It is a remarkable conversation from a kid who I ...
Episode 010: OSU Underclassmen potentially entering the Draft...
December 11, 2015 03:47 - 27 minutes - 38.1 MBEvery season the NFL draft comes near the end of April or beginning of May. Every year there are scores of collegiate players who forgo their eligibility to try their luck in the NFL. Some of those players go undrafted, but some are selected in the 1st round. It is an inexact science to say the least. I believe Ohio State has potentially 10 players, from a variety of positions, who could leave early. We tackle the 5 players on offense and 5 on players defense and whether it would be better f...
Episode 009: Reviewing the “chaotic” CFB weekend & Tiger, Peyton, & Kobe who would you see again?
December 08, 2015 04:21 - 37 minutes - 50.9 MBCollege Football Championship Saturday is final over and the projected chaos never happened. Sure, there were plenty of good games (sans Bama v. Florida), but there would be no drama for the top four teams in the College Football Playoff. The only drama would be the matchups. As always we will deconstruct the statements made by Jeff Long to see the true meaning of his words. Also we will breakdown the awful ending to the ACC Championship game. The Tar Heels were robbed. Not of the game, but ...

December 02, 2015 03:28 - 33 minutes - 45.7 MBThe College Football regular season is finally over and the rankings are in. Three Big Ten teams sit in the top 6 (Iowa, Michigan State, and Ohio State), but can only one of them get in? History says “YES,” but history is only a year old. The Big 12 champ Oklahoma is a lock, but what about the ACC and Clemson or the SEC and Bama? If either of them loose are their conferences represented? Each Tuesday Jeff Long, the Playoff Committee Selection Chair, sits in front of Reece Davis and answers q...

We talk about the Michigan State loss and how does Ohio State respond? Urban Meyer has dominated the Big 10, but his two conference losses have come to the same coach. How good is Mark Dantonio? After a devastating loss THE RIVALRY is heating up with this years addition of Jim Harbaugh. The guy is crazy, but he’s crazy like a fox and has brought passion back...

The B1G coming in with a league leading 6 teams, an event that no one would have been able to predict a few seasons ago. Beau gives his take on the JT situation and whether his suspension was just. Is the CFP Committee simply banking on what OSU did last season? The OSU offense has shown promise wi...
