Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ohio State football natty or men's basketball Sweet 16 -- which comes first? Around the Shoe
Q: What position group did you find most interesting after spring practice?
The offensive line drew the most interest due to its past underperformance, but the defensive line also stands out as a unit with high potential to reshape the defense if the newcomers can pressure the quarterback effectively.
Carnell Tate's 40 time and why he is the best WR in the 2026 NFL Draft
Q: Does he remind you of anybody?
Cam suggested Tate is his own guy but compared aspects of his game to Devontae Adams and AJ Green, notably in route nuance, releases, consistency catching the football, and size/catch radius.
Ohio State's Bo Jackson and can he avoid the Buckeye Curse for Year 2 running backs?
Q: What are the possible implications for Bo Jackson entering his second season?
There are concerns about mental hurdles and injuries that other running backs have faced in their sophomore years, emphasizing the need for strategic management of Bo Jackson's workload and expectations going into the upcoming season.
A 24-team College Football Playoff: Why the Big Ten wants it, and would it kill college football?
Q: So what would happen in this proposal where the top eight teams would get buys?
It's a trade of games; you would trade eight first round games for conference championship games.
A 24-team College Football Playoff: Why the Big Ten wants it, and would it kill college football?
