Shakeup on Buckeyes' O-line?

We have been touting Ohio State's offensive line as a strength all offseason and we still feel that way. But it is interesting that Austin Siereveld is exclusively repping at left tackle right now, with Phillip Daniels and Ethan Onianwa apparently battling it out for the right tackle spot. Onianwa is also receiving some reps inside at guard. The media spoke with OL coach Tyler Bowen yesterday to get his thoughts, and this situation is the main topic of today's show with Dave Biddle and Matt Baxendell. We also take a look at other notable happenings with nearly two weeks of camp in the books. That and much more is coming your way on the Wednesday 5ish.

Top targets left in '26 cycle | Guest list rundown | Texas unicorn with Ohio ties?

With the season less than a month away, one might think our focus has gone totally away from recruiting. Wrong! We always have recruiting on a front burner here and today is no exception. Bill Kurelic and Mark Porter are here to touch on the following topics: * Three top 60 prospects remain uncommitted in the Class of 2026's Top247. Ohio State is theoretically in the mix for all three. We dive deep on Bralan Womack, Darius Gray and Savion Hiter with their commitments scheduled for later this month. * Ohio State's season opener against visiting Texas is a prime time for the Buckeyes to entertain recruits. We peek at the burgeoning guest list while acknowledging some challenges in building attendance. * There is 300-plus pound prospect from Texas the Buckeyes have offered that boasts Ohio ties. He also lines up as Wildcat quarterback at times. We have video prove it. Meet Jalen Brewster. Spend 5ish with us this a.m., 'Nutters!

Reacting to bombshell news that 'nearly 100%' deals from collectives being rejected by NIL clearinghouse

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.
