  • Quit being negative

    You said last year how horrible it was to hire Patricia for defensive coordinator. Now you are already harping on the Arthur Smith hire. Just quit being so negative about everything Ryan Day does. You wonder why crazy people message players and coaches with threats and you open the flood gates for them. Most fans of a team enjoy it and are positive about it, just quit being negative to literally every move Day makes.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

ALERT: Ohio State QB Commit Brady Edmunds Drawing Major Push From UCLA
Q: What are your thoughts on the situation?
The hosts discuss Edmunds' recruitment as a dynamic where UCLA's push and Ohio State's stability clash, with both programs weighing the benefits of home-state comfort versus competing on the national stage, while considering how staff changes and development pipelines could influence Edmunds' eventual decision.
IMPACT: Ohio State BANKS on Andrija Jelavic to POWER Center Position Next Season
Q: Do you think Jelavic will be more of a stretch four or a true five for Ohio State?
Lance notes that Jelavic has been used as a stretch four at Kentucky and has some rim protection and post-up potential, so his spot might depend on how much weight he adds and how the Buckeyes want to space the floor around their guards.
IMPACT: Ohio State BANKS on Andrija Jelavic to POWER Center Position Next Season
Q: What part of the court do you think he's the most effective when he's playing with the Buckeyes?
Lance suggests Jelavic is best on the perimeter and can stretch the floor, but ultimately his best fit could be at the five if he can add weight and keep mobility, with room to grow in post moves and rim protection.
GAUNTLET: Ohio State ATTACKS Monster 2026 Schedule With a Champion’s Mindset
Q: What do you make of Ohio State keeping the Texas game on the schedule?
Keeping the Texas game is important for challenging the team and testing their readiness early on in the season.
FOUNDATION: Ohio State Football’s Massive WIN—Key Players and Coaches RETURN for Next Title Run
Q: What do you think these schools should do regarding the series being played in a couple of years?
