Who's next? Who's not? Who might be? Recruiting is ... uhhh ... different these days. All 'Nutters are well aware how much has changed. But Ohio State keeps going after elite prospects so we will continue to chronicle that effort ... no matter what form it takes. Bill Kurelic is The Dean. Mark Porter is The Grand Poobah. Years of hard work was performed to garner such monikers. Today's show is another reason why those nicknames stuck. Let's dive deep on Ohio State recruiting together, shall we?

Can you be still basking in the glow of the national championship, while simultaneously being concerned with Ohio State's recruiting efforts? Well, we would not recommend it, but we understand some Buckeye fans are nonplussed about OSU's recruiting efforts this cycle, particularly on the defensive line. Is there reason for concern, or are these fears overblown? Also, friend of the program Connor Stalions went on an unhinged rant while responding to comments from TCU coach Sonny Dykes. We're here for the drama. Dave Biddle and Dan Rubin tackle that and much more on the Monday 5ish.

Well, it did not take long for the College Sports Commission's "NIL Go" clearinghouse to make waves. According to the director of Utah State's collective, Dalton Forsythe, "nearly 100 percent of collective-backed NIL deals are being denied, regardless of size or structure. The College Sports Commission has taken the position that collectives cannot serve a 'valid business purpose' — a standard that was never clearly communicated before implementation." On today's show, Jonah Booker and Dave Biddle discuss this situation and what might be coming down the pike. If an athlete's NIL deal is rejected -- and he challenges that ruling in a court of law -- the athlete would likely prevail, right? Or does the House settlement actually have teeth, allowing the clearinghouse to reject any and all deals from collectives? We also discuss how much Ohio State will miss Will Howard this season at quarterback -- particularly his ability in the RPO game and his leadership -- and much more.

The 12-team College Football Playoff era will last all of two seasons. When the CFP expands in 2026, which format would be best for the sport overall? Which format would be best for Ohio State?

Ohio State is putting what amounts to the finishing touches on the Class of 2026. Several big-time targets remain on the board. We dive deep on those prospects today with Bill Kurelic and Mark Porter. Will Bralan Womack join the fold? Get up to speed on the Mississippi safety's stretch run towards a commitment? Who else could be in the class? Names, names and more names for you to consider. We also went to the tape to see exactly what the Buckeyes added in recent commitments from JJ Perez and Luke Fahey.

Ohio State wide receiver Jeremiah Smith had very high praise for Julian Sayin in a story published by The Athletic recently. Smith went as far to say that the redshirt freshman quarterback "can make every throw" and that it is "going to be scary for opponents." This reminded us of what some of OSU's players said about Sayin while at the NFL Combine this past winter. On today's show, Dave Biddle discusses this development, looks ahead to defensive tackle recruit Jamir Perez's "big announcement" this Friday and much more.

Well, that was quite a few days on the recruiting trail. The Glenville Pipeline is alive and well. Linebacker Cincere Johnson thrilled the 'Nutters with his commitment. The Hun pipeline? Not so much. Defensive end Luke Wafle is off to USC after Crystal Balls were rolled towards Columbus just 48 hours ago. Jonah Booker is here to discuss all the ramifications as the NIL era or whatever we are dealing with has taken center stage. What does it mean for the Buckeyes? We also get into a star-studded guest list for this weekend as Ohio State again readies to roll out the red carpet. Spend 5ish with us this a.m., 'Nutters!

If you ever wanted to experience a show symbolic of the new NIL era, you've come to the right place. Show prep included getting ready for two commitments. By the time Bill Kurelic and Mark Porter graced today's BM5 ... things had changed? Or did they? Or did they change and then now could change again? We think Glenville linebacker Cincere Johnson will commit to Ohio State today at noon. We thought New Jersey defensive end Luke Wafle would follow suit about two hours later. 'Thought' is the operative word in the prior sentence. A certain West Coast school that plays B1G football has thrown a really expensive monkey wrench into the situation. It's a hang on kinda day on the Ohio State recruiting front. We also dove deep on the cavalcade of elite quarterbacks that have camped at Ohio State this month, perhaps the most impressive crew in total the Buckeyes have ever had.

When Ohio State athletics boss Ross Bjork took the stage last week and clued us in on all the new NIL rules, what did you think? How will the Buckeyes fare in the updated era? Can they remain atop the food chain? Is it ... you know ... good to be King? We welcome in The People's Champ - Matt Baxendell - to dive deep on all the changes and possible ramifications. How will all look when practically applied by the NCAA and sherrifed by Deloitte - a multinational professional services network and one of the Big Four accounting firms. Is the city of Columbus now THE ideal college town (if it wasn't already)? What other programs are in a similar spot as Ohio State? In the end ... is it good or bad for the Buckeyes?

The media knew Ohio State athletic director Ross Bjork was holding a press conference on Thursday. What we did not know is that he would hold court for well over an hour and would cover so many interesting topics that we almost lost count. He discussed the ever-changing landscape of NIL in college sports -- including which OSU sports will receive money made available from the House settlement -- he talked about the new, streamlined NIL organization at Ohio State called Buckeye Sports Group, he discussed OSU trying to play more home night games, he went in-depth on Ohio Stadium renovations and much more.
