The O-line is one area that Ryan Day is utilizing the transfer portal to solidify & bolster. Not quite, they’ve actually struck out on most in the portal so far, including one today that just committed to USC over Ohio State. The portal hasn’t been their friend on the o-line yet.

Luke Wypler with a bit of a surprise and declares for the draft. Offensive line is taking some big hits next year. The skill guys won’t matter if the line can’t block.

Ya gotta help with this one. I swear I read a story of a 5th year tackle out of Washington State transferring to OSU. I tried to pull it up, but to no avail.

Not that I’m aware of, so far only a DB from Syracuse.

Not that I’m aware of, so far only a DB from Syracuse. I did get it right about this kid and at the time we were fairly certain he would become a Buckeye: The Buckeyes miss out on another transfer portal OT target. Washington State transfer tackle Jarrett Kingston has signed with USC over Ohio State,

Tommy Eichenburg is coming back as well along with Chambers. Buckeyes have their top two linebackers returning.

The heart of the defense is Tommy Eichenberg, if he decides to stick, that would be huge. He announced maybe a month ago. As I suspected, he's coming baaaaaack! And yes, it is huge for the defense.

When was the last time we had two all-American LB’s? Hawk and Carpenter?

Brian Hartline also named OC today. Will be interesting to see how the offense looks next year, I’m sure it won’t be much different but just a difference in play calling between him and Kevin Wilson.

Wilson didn't call the plays, Day did. Even though Herbie said Day is strongly considering giving up the play calling, with the youngster now the O-coordinator and never calling a play before. I'd think he'd give Hartline a year to get comfortable being up top and in charge.

Not on Ryan Day's watch. Wilson was the chief suggestor.

You probably should call all the journalists writing articles about the change and tell them to stop using the line “Hartline will replace Kevin Wilson who is leaving for Tulsa”.

Fillmore has taken over this site. Anytime anyone has an opinion he is there to make sure you feel stupid or are wrong. Fillmore should be the only person putting in opinions on here cause he watches this place like a hawk. He is like Dwight from The Office.

SO, EVERYONE is allowed to have an opinion except me?? NOW you're also the thought police. Those of your ilk don't have to be made to feel anything.
Someone has to post facts and truth.
Tell us. Who do you say called the plays at Ohio State the past 4 years? IF it wasn't Day, then why did Herbie report Day told him he was seriously considering giving up the responsibility???

Wilson was definitely involved in the play calling, everyone knows that. Involved YES. Play caller? Not on Ryan Day's watch. Wilson was the chief suggestor. My experience is, the OC sends in the plays and the head coach (Ryan Day) monitors and enjoys the ability to alter or change any play coming through his headset. Everything comes through him, not necessarily initiated by him. The sideline is not a good perspective of the defensive set, the press box is and Ryan Day understands this.

My experience is in THIS case, Wilson made suggestions based on what he saw upstair, that Day might not see on the sideline. Day called the plays. This was different than what most OC's and Head coaches do. AGAIN, Day said he is considering giving up the play called responsibilities. Why would he say that if the sole responsibility wasn't his?
