Happy Spring Practice Day!

It's hard to believe. It's true. Ohio State hits the practice field this morning to essentially kick off the new season.

New faces total over 40. Several new staffers are ready to roll. Our staff is at practice with bells on to bring you all we can in the open hour for the media. Yes, we will do our darnedest to get Legend Bey photos!

Garrick Hodge is here to preview the day and let you know four key recruits expected to witness the festivities. Mark Porter has several guys to watch and then teases his latest 'Buck-Eye In The Sky' evaluation of Texas cornerback Taelyn Mayo ... who is 6-foot-3 1/2! 

Spend 5ish with us this a.m., 'Nutters!

The Friday 5ish with Jonah Booker and Dave Biddle does a deep dive on Ohio State's 2026 running backs. What can be expected from this group? Also, Urban Meyer is part of a large panel that is meeting today at the White House on the future of college sports. Could this lead to guardrails being put in place for NIL? And we close the show talking some OSU hoops. If the Buckeyes beat Indiana on Saturday at the Schott, are they in the NCAA Tournament for the first time in four years? That and much more is coming your way.
