Bucknuts Morning 5: February 12, 2019
February 12, 2019 14:04 - 16 minutesAdmit it ... you were a little but apprehensive. Even the staunchest Ryan Day supporters couldn't have known for sure what they were getting. And Day needed to hit the ground running. Taking over for a legend in a 365-day gig doesn't allow a lot of time for celebrating the now added cashflow, etc. But so far, so good. Like ... real good. Should be surprised? Duane Long is here to talk Ryan Day, quarterback recruiting, offensive linemen we need and a whole lot more. Spend 5ish with us today, '...

Bucknuts Morning 5: February 11, 2019
February 11, 2019 14:14 - 17 minutesNCAA, you don't have to put on a red light. And they didn't. They greenlighted Justin Fields' appeal to be eligible immediately at Ohio State in 2019. What should fans expect from the quarterback as a sophomore this fall? Steve Helwagen joins Dave Biddle to discuss that, plus: * What is our take on him being granted immediate eligibility? A lot of people outside of OSU’s program seem have a problem with it. If this happened at Penn State, would we be bashing it? Or is this simply the new norm...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Feb. 8, 2019
February 08, 2019 12:04 - 14 minutesBuckeye Nation is still awaiting word whether quarterback Justin Fields will be eligible immediately in 2019. If he is, Jonah Booker believes Ohio State will be on the short list of national championship candidates. JBook joins Dave Biddle for his usual visit to discuss Fields, plus: * Thoughts on Ryan Day's coaching staff at OSU, specifically Jeff Hafley and Mike Yurcich. * What should Buckeye fans expect from 5-star wide receiver Garrett Wilson as a true freshman? * What about 5-star true f...
Bucknuts Morning 5: February 7, 2019
February 07, 2019 14:11 - 20 minutesIt's the day after National Signing Day. Who better to join us than 247Sports Director of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong to put things in perspective? Nobody. So Steve is here. What did he think of Ohio State's Class of 2019 haul? Is it really the third-best class in the Big Ten? We break it all down and Steve gives you the real deal. Also: * How did Day and Co. hook a Hawaiian so late in the process? * Dawand Jones: Boom or bust? * Look ahead: Where to focus for 2020? * Is Jack Sawyer actually a...
Bucknuts Morning 5: February 5, 2019
February 05, 2019 14:04 - 14 minutesIt's the offseason for Ryan Day and Co. and there is no rest for the weary. This time is about talent acquisition. Getting a commitment from the best high school football player in the state of Ohio ... is that something that would interest you? The Buckeyes may have gotten that in Jack Sawyer - and he's only a high school sophomore. Too young, you say? Talk about the now? OK, how about a redshirt junior transfer from a Big Ten foe ready to step in start right away in Columbus? If that doesn'...
Bucknuts Morning 5: January 22, 2019
January 22, 2019 14:18 - 10 minutesWhat can warm a Buckeye's heart on a freezing holiday weekend? Yep, a commitment from one of Ohio's best offensive lineman that's what. And you know it heated up Duane Long. Duane is here to talk Jakob James and Ohio State's clear focus on bolstering the offensive line in the Class of 2020. So far, the Buckeyes have seven commitments ... all on offense. We also break down the latest in the recruitment of Dewand Jones, the enormous Class of 2019 offensive lineman. Don't close the book on th...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Jan. 21, 2019
January 21, 2019 14:45 - 16 minutesIt was not as big of a recruiting weekend as initially anticipated for Ohio State due to the weather, but it was still rather large. Both literally and figuratively. Offensive line prospects Doug Nester and Dawand Jones were at OSU for official visits over the weekend. How did they go? Will both of them sign with Ohio State exactly two weeks and two days from now when the now "late" signing period commences (Feb. 6)? As for the team itself, will new linebackers coach Al Washington make any ...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Jan. 18, 2019
January 18, 2019 11:55 - 13 minutesOhio State is losing five players early to the NFL Draft. (Six including Nick Bosa.) But for OSU standards, that's not too bad. Especially when guys who many expected would turn pro -- such as wide receiver K.J. Hill and safety Jordan Fuller -- decided to return. Jonah Booker joins Dave Biddle for JBook's usual Friday visit to discuss that, plus: * What are thoughts on the Buckeyes' offensive line heading into the 2019 season? * What about the corps of running backs? * On the recruiting ...
Bucknuts Morning 5: January 17, 2019
January 17, 2019 14:07 - 11 minutesThe frigid conditions in Columbus have not slowed the Ryan Day Train. It's full speed ahead. That's why we had to bring in 247Sports Director of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong to spread wisdom on the following topics: * Will Indy prospect Dawand Jones be in Columbus this weekend? Why is USC the chief competitor for his commitment? * Penn State is making a run at Doug Nester. Can the Nits flip the West Virginia native? Why is he still looking around? * Expert insight on Tate Martell's transfer....
Bucknuts Morning 5: Jan. 16, 2019
January 16, 2019 12:23 - 12 minutesThere has been a lot of talk lately about the comings and goings in regard to Ohio State's football teams. Including both coaches and players. Now that the dust has settled to a large degree, what are expectations for the 2019 Buckeyes? Just how good will they be? What do we feel really good about when we analyze this roster? What are possible concerns? What grade would we give Ryan Day on the assistant coaching staff he put together? The People's Champ, Matt Baxendell, joins Dave Biddle f...
Bucknuts Morning 5: January 15, 2019
January 15, 2019 14:38 - 14 minutesThere are comings and there are goings. It's the college football offseason and upheaval is the norm. Tathan Martell? Out. Greg Studrawa? In. Kendall Sheffield? Out. Justin Fields? In ... we think. Damon Arnette? In. You get the picture. How do we feel about the aforementioned maneuvers? We brought in Duane Long for his usual Tuesday appearance to offer some perspective on the "new-look" Buckeyes going forward. To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: ht...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Jan. 14, 2019
January 14, 2019 13:43 - 9 minutesThere is a lot to talk about on the offensive line recruiting front, so who better to speak with than the Dean of Ohio State Football Recruiting, Bill Kurelic? The Dean joins Dave Biddle for today's show to give the inside scoop on: * Doug Nester. * Dawand Jones. * Paris Johnson. * Greg Studrawa. All of that and more coming at you on the Monday extravaganza. To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Jan. 11, 2019
January 11, 2019 11:46 - 13 minutesTate Martell was adamant that he would stay at Ohio State and compete for the starting quarterback job, even if Justin Fields ended up transferring to OSU. Well, Fields did end up transferring to OSU, and now it's Martell who could be on the way out. It came to light on Thursday that Martell is in the NCAA's transfer portal. Does this mean Ohio State head coach Ryan Day had a heart-to-heart with Martell (read: told Martell that Fields was going to be the starter), which led to Martell chang...
Bucknuts Morning 5: January 10, 2019
January 10, 2019 15:05 - 16 minutesNational coming out parties for future Buckeyes. Raiding your rival like it's personal (uhhh ... it is). Taking over and putting your stamp on a national brand before you turn 40. All is taking place in Columbus these days and it's been hard to keep up. But it's been fun. To put it all in perspective, what better time for 247Sports Director of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong to make his weekly appearance on the 5ish? Enjoy, 'Nutters! To learn more about listener data and our privacy practice...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Jan. 9, 2019
January 09, 2019 14:52 - 15 minutesThe good news keeps rolling in for Ohio State. On the same day that the Buckeyes poached linebackers coach Al Washington away from rival Michigan, wide receiver K.J. Hill announced he is returning for his fifth-year senior season in 2019. Ryan Day now has one spot still to fill on his coaching staff. What type of coach is he looking for? Could it be someone who can handle a variety of roles? Patrick Murphy joins Dave Biddle to discuss all of that and more on the Wednesday extravaganza. T...
Bucknuts Morning 5: January 8, 2019
January 08, 2019 14:27 - 26 minutesIf you thought new Ohio State head football coach Ryan Day believe in the status quo, you were mistaken. Just days into his official tenure, Day has shaken up the Buckeyes staff in a major way. Greg Schiano, Bill Davis and Alex Grinch are gone. Greg Mattison, Mike Yurcich and Jeff Hafley are in. And we expect more exits and new arrivals soon. Oh, and Ohio State added arguably the most talented QB of the last decade. Oh, and Ohio State finished No. 3 in the final AP poll released this ...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Jan. 7, 2019
January 07, 2019 14:08 - 20 minutesIt is a jam-packed edition of the Monday 5ish as Bill "Bank" Greene joins Dave Biddle to discuss the following: * How will Ohio State head coach Ryan Day fill out his assistant coaching staff? Who is staying? Who is going? Who is jumping aboard? * What is the latest on the recruiting front for the Buckeyes? Is Doug Nester in or out? Who else might OSU add to its 2019 recruiting class next month? * What impact will Justin Fields have at Ohio State in 2019? What will happen with Tate Martell...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Jan. 4, 2019
January 04, 2019 14:17 - 20 minutesWe have reached the silly season of college football where rumors are rampant. The good news for Ohio State is a lot of the rumors tied to the Buckeyes are good ones -- and have a lot of validity from what we've been told. On this extended version of the show, Jonah Booker joins Dave Biddle to discuss: * What will happen with Ohio State's assistant coaches? * What will happen with Justin Fields and Tate Martell? All of that and much more on this 20-plus-minute version of the Friday extra...
Bucknuts Morning 5: January 3, 2019
January 03, 2019 14:33 - 10 minutes247Sports Director of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong is always here on Thursdays ... even if he is on assignment. Today is no different and Wiltfong checks in from San Antonio, Tex., site of the All-American Bowl. It just so happens some vital future Buckeyes are there displaying their wares and Wiltfong joins to let us know just how they are faring. Complete breakdowns of: * Harry Miller * Zach Harrison * Doug Nester * Garrett Wilson * Steele Chambers Also: Has there been any chatter abou...

All of that and more on the Friday extravaganza. To learn more about listener...
Bucknuts Morning 5: December 27, 2018
December 27, 2018 14:58 - 12 minutesThe holiday glow is still shining here on the BM5! Ohio State is in Cali getting ready for a Rose Bowl date with Washington. Does that mean recruiting has come to a halt? Of course not. At Ohio State, recruiting NEVER comes to a halt. So we are once again fortunate that 247Sports Director of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong joined us. * The Buckeyes got a Christmas gift from the Pacific Northwest. What will the present be like in Columbus? * Indianapolis native Wiltfong on the recruitment of Ind...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Dec. 26, 2018
December 26, 2018 14:27 - 10 minutesIt was a Merry Christmas for Ohio State as the Buckeyes landed 2020 four-star wide receiver Gee Scott from the state of Washington on Tuesday. What does this say about the recruiting of Ryan Day and Brian Hartline? The People's Champ, Matt Baxendell, joins Dave Biddle for today's show to discuss that, plus: * What will happen with OSU's defensive coaching staff following the Rose Bowl? Will Greg Schiano return as defensive coordinator? Or will Day perhaps promote Alex Grinch to defensive c...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Dec. 24, 2018
December 24, 2018 13:26 - 12 minutesWill Justin Fields transfer to Ohio State following the bowl season? According to Bill "Bank" Greene, the chances of Fields playing for the Buckeyes in 2019 is excellent. Bank joins Dave Biddle on today's show to discuss all things Fields, plus: * Has Ryan Day smoothed things over with 5-star 2020 recruit Paris Johnson? * How many recruits will the Buckeyes add in their 2019 class in February? Will Doug Nester sign with OSU? * Will Ohio State junior center Michael Jordan stay for his sen...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Dec. 21, 2018
December 21, 2018 12:10 - 15 minutesWhat is the latest on the Justin Fields-to-Ohio State rumors? Jonah Booker joins Dave Biddle for an action-packed edition of the show to discuss that, plus: * What type of quarterback would the Buckeyes be getting in Fields if he does transfer to OSU? * What are people nationwide saying about Ryan Day and his ability to coach up QBs? * Ohio State's 2019 recruiting class is high on quality and low on quantity. The Buckeyes are ranked No. 12 in the 247Sports Composite team recruiting rankin...
Bucknuts Morning 5: December 20, 2018
December 20, 2018 15:06 - 13 minutesSmell that? It's not smoke, relax. Nothing is on fire. Everyone is safe. You may have heard Ohio State is reeling since the beginning of the Early Signing Period. You heard wrong. Given the way this year has gone, maybe we shouldn't be surprised. But we needed some truth. So we brought in 247Sports Director of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong to let you know how Ohio State fared yesterday. All of that and more as we review Commitmas ... To learn more about listener data and our privacy pr...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Dec. 19, 2018
December 19, 2018 14:03 - 14 minutesOur good friend Bill King of The Bill King Show on Nashville Sports Radio has dubbed the early signing period -- which kicked off today -- "Commitmas." We like that term, and thus far Ohio State is receiving many nice presents. And more good news is expected later in the day when Zach Harrison makes his announcment. The Dean of Ohio State Football Recruiting, Bill Kurelic (who else, right?) joins Dave Biddle on today's show to discuss all things early signing day from the Buckeyes' perspect...
Bucknuts Morning 5: December 18, 2018
December 18, 2018 14:19 - 11 minutesIt's the eve of the Early Signing Period. Ohio State remains in the mix for several elite prospects, including a certain local. It's the 'eve' of the college transfer season. Ohio State is apparently in the mix for a certain elite quarterback ... possibly. So we have plenty to discuss and just the person to discuss it with: Duane Long. We talk Justin Fields, Zach Harrison, Nick Broeker, Jaden McKenzie, Doug Nester, breeding boxer puppies and much more. Spend 5ish with us today, 'Nutters! ...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Dec. 17, 2018
December 17, 2018 13:06 - 20 minutesMike Weber will turn pro after this season, which is not a surprise, but does lead to a question: Is running back depth going to be a problem for the Buckeyes in 2019. Obviously, J.K. Dobbins will return, but behind him, there could be some concerns. With the early signing period kicking off this Wednesday, we also talk a lot about recruiting on today's show: * What is the latest with Doug Nester and Paris Johnson? * Which recruits who are not committed to OSU might sign with the Buckeyes...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Dec. 14, 2018
December 14, 2018 12:18 - 10 minutesIf Greg Schiano does depart as Ohio State's defensive coordinator, and Alex Grinch is promoted to defensive coordinator, might Marcus Freeman make a homecoming to OSU? Jonah Booker joins Dave Biddle for today's show to discuss that, plus: * The refreshing honesty from Dre’Mont Jones (and the refreshing fact that he's going to play in the Rose Bowl). * Will Jordan Fuller return in 2019, or will he turn pro? * What is the latest on the recruiting front as far as Zach Harrison, Jordan Battle...
Bucknuts Morning 5: December 13, 2018
December 13, 2018 14:31 - 13 minutesWhat are early returns on Ryan Day's recruiting trail exploits as head coach? Has his ascension weakened Ohio State's pitch in the wake of Urban Meyer's announced exit? We bring in 247Sports Director of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong to get an expert opinion. Other topics include: * Should Dwayne Haskins set sail for NBA waters? * Does the Big Ten have a new, legitimate recruiting challenger? * What does Washington offer Ohio State as a Rose Bowl opponent? Spend 5ish with us today, 'Nutters...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Dec. 12, 2018
December 12, 2018 13:47 - 13 minutes"The Granddaddy of Them All" is not getting much discussion amongst Ohio State fans. Part of that is because of the existence of the College Football Playoff, and the Buckeyes not being a part of the four-team field. Another reason is the pending retirement of Urban Meyer and promotion of Ryan Day is by far the biggest topic of conversation when OSU fans banter about their squad. However, on today's show, Ohio State's matchup with Washington in the Rose Bowl is the crux of the show. The P...
Bucknuts Morning 5: December 12, 2018
December 11, 2018 14:06 - 16 minutesChange ... change ... change. Sometimes it's scary. Sometimes it's exciting. Well ... what's the deal at Ohio State now that Urban Meyer is in the process of handing the reins to Pat Day? So far ... so good. Could the staff be facing upheaval? Are there committed recruits ready to defect? Is Ohio State about to be knocked off its Big Ten perch? We brought in Duane Long, who takes a break from dealing with multiple boxer puppies to offer up his opinions on the 'Day regime' thus far. A...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Dec. 10, 2018
December 10, 2018 14:13 - 22 minutesFor several weeks, Zach Harrison appeared to be trending Michigan's way. Now the No. 1 recruit in the state of Ohio seems to be leaning toward Ohio State. But why? Bill "Bank" Greene joins Dave Biddle to give his take on that (and Bank has always kept his Crystal Ball to OSU as far as Harrison is concerned). Also on the docket: What is the latest with Harry Miller, Jordan Battle, Cade Stover, Doug Nester, Nick Broeker and Cavon Butler? What are thoughts on Ryan Day being promoted to hea...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Dec. 7, 2018
December 07, 2018 12:08 - 12 minutesJonah Booker believes Ohio State made the correct decision in promoting Ryan Day to head coach, even without conducting a national search. However, JBook says that Day must do a complete overhaul of the defensive coaching staff. JBook joins Dave Biddle for his usual Friday visit to discuss that, plus: * What is our overall confidence level in Day? * Are we buying into any of the conspiracy theories that Urban Meyer's decision to retire really wasn't his decision alone? * Is there any cha...
Bucknuts Morning 5: December 6, 2018
December 06, 2018 15:13 - 12 minutesThere's an old adage about the transfer of power: You don't want to replace The Guy. You want to the guy who replaces the guy who replaced The Guy. Ryan Day won't have that luxury. He is replacing Urban Meyer (see: The Guy). Can he pull it off? Time will tell. Can he maintain Ohio State's recruiting momentum that actually started the day Urban was announced as Ohio State's coach on xxxxx. We bring in Steve Wiltfong, director of recruiting for 247Sports, to get his opinion on how Day will ...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Dec. 5, 2018
December 05, 2018 12:14 - 18 minutesThey say you don't want to be the coach who follows a legend. You want to replace the coach that replaced a legend. However, Urban Meyer is absolutely a legend, and Ryan Day will of course be taking over for him as Ohio State's head coach following the Rose Bowl. On today's show, the People's Champ, Matt Baxendell, joins Dave Biddle to discuss the following: * Looking back on the Meyer era and everything he accomplished. * Thoughts on Day taking the gig, without a national search being co...
Bucknuts Morning 5: December 4, 2018
December 04, 2018 14:12 - 23 minutesThe Urban Meyer Era is ending in Columbus. The esteemed coach will guide the Buckeyes through the Rose Bowl before being replaced by offensive coordinator Pat Day. Quite a Tuesday a.m. announcement to wake up to. Was it the most shocking news we've ever heard? No. This move was expected by many. What is our reaction to the news? What comes next for the Buckeyes? How does it affect recruiting ... the staff ... current players? You could say there is plenty to discuss. Duane Long is here...
Bucknuts Morning 5: December 3, 2018
December 03, 2018 15:22 - 15 minutesSure, it was a weekend that produced a bunch of answers. It also produced a bunch of questions. Since we last convened, Ohio State won the Big Ten title and saw its College Football Playoff hopes vanish. We brought in the most senior scribe on the Buckeye beat - our very own Steve Helwagen - to tackle all the developments. * Was the performance against Northwestern one of the season's best? * Has Dwayne Haskins played so well his early exit is inevitable? * Georgia over Ohio State: The...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Nov. 30, 2018
November 30, 2018 13:42 - 12 minutesNervous that Ohio State might be overlooking Northwestern in Saturday's Big Ten Championship Game? Well, Jonah Booker says you shouldn't be. He expects the No. 6 Buckeyes (11-1, 8-1 Big Ten) will have their way with the No. 21 Wildcats (8-4, 8-1). JBook joins Dave Biddle for his usual Friday visit to break down the OSU-NU matchup and why he is so confident. Other topics that are broached include the Buckeyes' chances to make the College Football Playoff, plus how Dwayne Haskins has managed...
Bucknuts Morning 5: November 29, 2018
November 29, 2018 14:15 - 18 minutesNot many pundits predicted Ohio State would beat Michigan in The Game. But 247Sports Director of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong was indeed one of those pundits. And Wiltfong called it well in advance. He's here today to accept kudos on said premonition, plus talk Northwestern and the latest on recruiting. * How did The Game help recruiting? * Can Ohio State repeat the effort this weekend? * What does Northwestern offer as an opponent? * No Zach Harrison discussion whatsoever. * Is Renardo Gr...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Nov. 28, 2018
November 28, 2018 12:18 - 12 minutes"Win and you're in" is not the phrase Ohio State can use as it enters the Big Ten Championship Game against Northwestern. If the Buckeyes want to make the College Football Playoff, a narrow win over the Wildcats likely will not do the trick. The CFP selection committee made that fairly clear when it placed OSU No. 6 in the most recent rankings. The People's Champ, Matt Baxendell, joins Dave Biddle to discuss the Buckeyes' CFP chances, plus: * Northwestern is no joke. What problems might th...
Bucknuts Morning 5: November 28, 2018
November 27, 2018 14:50 - 26 minutesSo that went well. Just like we thought it would ... right? OK, not so much. Yes, we are still basking in the glow of an unreal Saturday in The Shoe. Those in a state north of here? Not so much. There will be time to talk immediate future, Big Ten championship tussles and possible College Football Playoff berths. Today, we revel in the glory some more. Duane Long is here. He's pleased. Let's enjoy. Spend 5ish with us today!!! To learn more about listener data and our privacy pract...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Nov. 26, 2018
November 26, 2018 13:46 - 14 minutesWhat is an “Urban special”? It is when Urban Meyer is an underdog – or just doubted in general – and he makes your team look like the junior varsity playing the Division I state champions. Let’s be honest: It happened to Ohio State in the 2006 national championship game when Meyer’s Florida squad handed the Buckeyes a 41-14 defeat. And it sure happened on Saturday when Meyer’s Ohio State squad dismantled Michigan and its No. 1-ranked defense 62-39. Which included the Buckeyes taking a knee...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Nov. 23, 2018
November 23, 2018 14:23 - 13 minutesIt is all about the Ohio State-Michigan game on today's edition of the Bucknuts Morning 5. Steve Helwagen joins Dave Biddle to give predictions on who will win The Game, including a final score. We also answer your questions from the Front Row message board about the OSU-UM clash.

Bucknuts Morning 5: Nov. 21, 2018
November 21, 2018 14:29 - 12 minutesIt is the eve of Thanksgiving and it's time to talk all about The Game. The People's Champ, Matt Baxendell, joins Dave Biddle to discuss this year's rendition of the Ohio State-Michigan game. The Wolverines are 4.5-point favorites. Is this the year they finally win in Columbus, or will the Buckeyes take care of business? What are predictions on the final score? Also on the docket: * How might rainy weather affect The Game? * What are injury updates for both squads? * What is something Oh...
Bucknuts Morning 5: November 20, 2018
November 20, 2018 14:08 - 14 minutesThe stakes are high. They always are for The Game. But the tension is amped when a Big Ten title game berth is on the line. Add in the speculation surrounding Ohio State and you have an emotionally charged atmosphere leading up to the regular season finale on noon at The Shoe. Duane Long is here to help put it all in perspective. ** Is Urban Meyer really considering an exit from Columbus? ** When it comes to Ohio State's struggles on defense, is the problem scheme, personnel or ... both?...
Bucknuts Morning 5: Nov. 19, 2018
November 19, 2018 14:07 - 19 minutesIt is the best rivalry in college football, and the stakes could not be much higher for the 2018 edition of the Ohio State-Michigan game. The Wolverines are favored by 3.5 points, meaning the Buckeyes are underdogs in The Game in Columbus for the first time since 2004. (Which was a 37-21 OSU victory in Troy Smith's coming-out-party, by the way.) What chances do we give Ohio State of pulling off the mild upset and sending Jim Harbaugh to 0-4 against OSU, and Urban Meyer to 7-0 against UM? B...
