'BIA' might be even better? | OSU's players gush about Patricia
Ohio State's secondary calls itself "BIA" (Best In America). The Buckeyes made a strong case for themselves in 2024 when they helped lead OSU to the national championship. This year's group is losing cornerback Denzel Burke , nickel Jordan Hancock and safety Lathan Ransom, who were definitely key cogs on the national title squad.
However, it is not a stretch in the least to say the Buckeyes might be even better in the secondary in 2025.
Also, have you noticed the way OSU's players absolutely gush about new defensive coordinator Matt Patricia?
Dave Biddle flies solo on the Wednesday 5ish to discuss that and much more.

Southern charmed | More commitments fast approaching?
The last three times our Tuesday-Thursday trio convened for this show we had a fresh commitment to discuss. Make it four for four! And this one was the most surprising yet. Ohio State garnered a commitment on Monday from Blaine Bradford. Not only is he the nation's No. 1 Class of 2026 defensive back, according to the 247Sports Composite, the 6-foot-1, 207-pound safety is from Baton Rouge, La. Is Ohio State on its way to crafting another epic secondary haul? Does the Bradford pledge affect Mississippi safety Bralan Womack (the nation's No. 2DB who is scheduled to visit this coming weekend). We break it all down and wax poetic with Bill Kurelic and Mark Porter. Spend 5ish with us this a.m., 'Nutters!

Is this a legit competition between quarterbacks Julian Sayin and Lincoln Kienholz? Or will we be shocked if Sayin is not the guy? What about some of the OL spots?
