Bucknuts Morning 5

There has been a lot of talk lately about the comings and goings in regard to Ohio State's football teams. Including both coaches and players. Now that the dust has settled to a large degree, what are expectations for the 2019 Buckeyes? Just how good will they be? What do we feel really good about when we analyze this roster? What are possible concerns? What grade would we give Ryan Day on the assistant coaching staff he put together? The People's Champ, Matt Baxendell, joins Dave Biddle for his usual Wednesday visit to discuss that and more on the midweek extravaganza.

There are comings and there are goings. It's the college football offseason and upheaval is the norm. Tathan Martell? Out. Greg Studrawa? In. Kendall Sheffield? Out. Justin Fields? In ... we think. Damon Arnette? In. You get the picture. How do we feel about the aforementioned maneuvers? We brought in Duane Long for his usual Tuesday appearance to offer some perspective on the "new-look" Buckeyes going forward.

There is a lot to talk about on the offensive line recruiting front, so who better to speak with than the Dean of Ohio State Football Recruiting, Bill Kurelic?

Tate Martell was adamant that he would stay at Ohio State and compete for the starting quarterback job, even if Justin Fields ended up transferring to OSU. Well, Fields did end up transferring to OSU, and now it's Martell who could be on the way out. It came to light on Thursday that Martell is in the NCAA's transfer portal. Does this mean Ohio State head coach Ryan Day had a heart-to-heart with Martell (read: told Martell that Fields was going to be the starter), which led to Martell changing his mind? Also, what can be expected of Fields in 2019 if he in fact the Buckeyes' starting QB? On the coaching front, is it a surprise that Marcus Freeman turned down Day's offer to be Ohio State's linebackers coach? Jonah Booker drops by for his usual Friday visit for all of that and more.

National coming out parties for future Buckeyes. Raiding your rival like it's personal (uhhh ... it is). Taking over and putting your stamp on a national brand before you turn 40. All is taking place in Columbus these days and it's been hard to keep up. But it's been fun. To put it all in perspective, what better time for 247Sports Director of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong to make his weekly appearance on the 5ish? Enjoy, 'Nutters!

The good news keeps rolling in for Ohio State. On the same day that the Buckeyes poached linebackers coach Al Washington away from rival Michigan, wide receiver K.J. Hill announced he is returning for his fifth-year senior season in 2019. Ryan Day now has one spot still to fill on his coaching staff. What type of coach is he looking for? Could it be someone who can handle a variety of roles? Patrick Murphy joins Dave Biddle to discuss all of that and more on the Wednesday extravaganza.

If you thought new Ohio State head football coach Ryan Day believe in the status quo, you were mistaken.  Just days into his official tenure, Day has shaken up the Buckeyes staff in a major way.  Greg Schiano, Bill Davis and Alex Grinch are gone. Greg Mattison, Mike Yurcich and Jeff Hafley are in. And we expect more exits and new arrivals soon. Oh, and Ohio State added arguably the most talented QB of the last decade. Oh, and Ohio State finished No. 3 in the final AP poll released this a.m. So, yeah, this show is not 5ish at all. Sit back and enjoy the dulcet tones of Duane Long ...

Smell that? It's not smoke, relax. Nothing is on fire. Everyone is safe.  You may have heard Ohio State is reeling since the beginning of the Early Signing Period.  You heard wrong. Given the way this year has gone, maybe we shouldn't be surprised.  But we needed some truth.

Our good friend Bill King of The Bill King Show on Nashville Sports Radio has dubbed the early signing period -- which kicked off today -- "Commitmas." We like that term, and thus far Ohio State is receiving many nice presents. And more good news is expected later in the day when Zach Harrison makes his announcment. The Dean of Ohio State Football Recruiting, Bill Kurelic (who else, right?) joins Dave Biddle on today's show to discuss all things early signing day from the Buckeyes' perspective. Who has already signed with OSU this morning? In addition to Harrison, which recruits are we keeping a close eye on the rest of the way today? Which recruits could sign with Ohio State in February? What are we hearing on the Justin Fields front? Might the Georgia quarterback transfer to Ohio State? Or did those rumors get a bit out of control on Monday and Tuesday of this week? All of that and more as we take a break from celebrating Festivus to celebrate Commitmas. To learn more about listener data and our pr

It's the eve of the Early Signing Period. Ohio State remains in the mix for several elite prospects, including a certain local. It's the 'eve' of the college transfer season. Ohio State is apparently in the mix for a certain elite quarterback ... possibly. So we have plenty to discuss and just the person to discuss it with: Duane Long. We talk Justin Fields, Zach Harrison, Nick Broeker, Jaden McKenzie, Doug Nester, breeding boxer puppies and much more. Spend 5ish with us today, 'Nutters!
