Former Ohio State Football Coach Zach Smith keeps it REAL talking all things college football and sports in general!

    OVE: Will the 2024 Ohio State Defense be the BEST In Program History?

    OVE: Will the 2024 Ohio State Defense be the BEST In Program History?

    The Ohio State defense from last season was one of the best in recent memory. Now, after bringing back multiple starters including Denzel Burke and JT Tuimoloau, and adding an All-American safety from Alabama in Caleb Downs, the expectations for this years Buckeye defense are through the roof. In a season with several question marks regarding the QB situation, perhaps Ryan Day and Ohio State will need to have one of the best defenses in recent college football memory in order to beat Michigan, win the Big Ten conference, and make a run at a national championship.

    College Football's Biggest PROBLEM Regarding NIL & Transfer Portal

    College Football's Biggest PROBLEM Regarding NIL & Transfer Portal

    In the era of NIL and transfer portal, we're seeing a common problem throughout the sport of college football. Players are committing to and from schools at will throughout the recruitment process and then transferring to and from schools once they are enrolled. Ohio State and coach Ryan Day are familiar with this, as Dylan Raiola de-commit to two different schools, one of them being the Buckeyes, before finally landing with Matt Rhule and Nebraska. Now, Jaden Rashada is transferring from Arizona State after he also de-committed from several schools throughout his recruiting process. Is this problem fixable?

    OVE: Has Ryan Day Put an END to the Ohio State QB Competition?

    OVE: Has Ryan Day Put an END to the Ohio State QB Competition?

    The rumors are swirling around that Ohio State head coach Ryan Day has named a starter for the 2024 college football season after Day was spotted with Will Howard at his country club yesterday. However, with over 4 months to go before the season opener for the Buckeyes, are these reports a bit premature? Devin Brown was rumored to be the best QB multiple times throughout the spring, with Julian Saying providing some quality outing as well. With so much on the line for coach Ryan Day and Ohio State this upcoming season, is this QB battle seemingly over already? Can Will Howard be the one to beat Michigan and lead Ohio State to a Big Ten championship, and maybe even a national title?

    Has Coach Ryan Day Made a DECISION on the Ohio State QB Battle?

    Has Coach Ryan Day Made a DECISION on the Ohio State QB Battle?

    Spring practice has come and gone without Ohio State head coach Ryan Day giving any indication on who the starting QB would be for the upcoming season. Devin Brown is the longest tenured guy in the room, and has reportedly been ahead of the pack after a majority of the spring practices. Julian Sayin has shown flashes of brilliance while also reminding everyone that he is only a true freshman at times. Then there's the million dollar man: Will Howard. The transfer from Kansas State who's both won a conference championship, and lost the starting job in the middle of the season. After a hangout with Coach Day at his country club yesterday, is Howard the man to lead the Buckeyes offense for the 2024 college football season and end the losing streak to Michigan?

    OVE: Ohio State Coach Jake Diebler Screwed by NEPOTISM LAW

    OVE: Ohio State Coach Jake Diebler Screwed by NEPOTISM LAW

    Jake Diebler has already run into trouble with the law... not really, but Ohio State denied his request to hire his own brother who was a former player for the Buckeyes and holds the school record for most career 3-pointers made. With the new head coach making waves in the transfer portal bringing back former Buckeye star Meechie Johnson and ex-Kentucky 5-star Aaron Bradshaw, it seems like things are trending in the right direction for the men's basketball program. Also - latest updates on the NCAA sanction for the Michigan football program and the end to a terribly disappointing Blue Jackets season.

    CRISIS for the Michigan Football Program Amid NCAA Sanctions

    CRISIS for the Michigan Football Program Amid NCAA Sanctions

    Breaking news hit yesterday afternoon when the NCAA dropped sanctions on the Michigan football program stemming back to a 2020 violation, referred to as 'Burger Gate', when Michigan coaches, including Jim Harbaugh, illegally met with recruits during what was supposed to be a dead period during the COVID pandemic. Is this the beginning of the end for the Michigan football program? As Ryan Day and Ohio State get set to avenge the last three losses to the Wolverines, it seems as though the folks in Ann Arbor will be preoccupied with the latest drama. Did Jim Harbaugh leave for the NFL to avoid punishment? Is Sherrone Moore doomed before he even starts the 2024 college football season?
