  • Best in the Biz

    Adam King is not a voice that carries any credibility with OSU football. He’s the only weak-link on this podcast. As a true recruiting junkie, I can confidently say Birm is the best in the business, when it comes to OSU recruiting Info, and it’s not even close.

  • Birm is the best

    Period end of story. Dude who said he should lighten up? That man has helium in his soul. He’s light and airy and witty and the smartest voice on that beat by miles so go pound sand and learn you some sarcasm lessons, son.

  • Birm is a sad character

    He is so serious, never laughs, etc. Takes himself way too seriously. Hope he lightens up a bit.
