]]> 3612 yes Hangout in the Holy Land: Post-Rivalry Week randomness — OSU is a basketball school now, offseason changes, and Ryan Day’s popularity The latest episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s flagship podcast is here! Join LGHL’s Josh Dooley and Chuck Holmes as they discuss Ohio State football, recruiting, and much, much more! Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of “Hangout in the Holy Land,” Josh and Chuck ignore Ohio State football completely and instead focus on basketball, wrestling, and synchronized swimming... Just kidding, but kudos to those Scarlet and Gray teams currently taking care of business. Still a little salty as a result of The Game, the Hangout Boys attempt to boost morale by talking a little roundball. Both of Ohio State’s basketball teams are currently thriving; one doing so rather unexpectedly. So what has been the key to the OSU men’s team’s hot start? And can Chris Holtmann’s squad keep it up? Elsewhere, some football was recently played. Have you heard? And it will continue to be played by teams seeking a blissful end to their 2023-24 season. However, Ohio State will likely not be one of them. So how can the Buckeyes improve this offseason, and put themselves in a better position to win big games — not just the ones they’re supposed to?

]]> 4175 Silver Bullets Podcast: Michigan rewind, Ryan Day, Kyle McCord, and More Ohio State’s 2023 regular season is over. The college football schedule always seems long until the games begin and then before you know it, it’s gone. So it is again this year as the Buckeyes concluded their 2023 regular season at 11-1 after a bitter, 30-24 loss in Ann Arbor. The team was in it from start to finish, but couldn’t quite overcome an early interception that set up Michigan’s first touchdown after the Wolverines had done nothing up to that point on offense. Oh, the Buckeyes pulled level at one point, but they simply made too many errors and some questionable (and conservative) decisions, and that’s no way to handle The Game. We break down a tough day on the road in Ann Arbor, Kyle McCord’s poor start, Ryan Day’s key decisions, and more. We also wonder what happened to Jim Knowles’ defense after halftime. And we look back at our predictions and our picks to click to see how well we anticipated the happenings in the mitten state. We addressed fan concerns about Day and McCord and tried to look at it objectively in the cold light of day. Are there coaches who should be fired? Absolutely, and we tell you which ones. Wrapping up this week’s podcast, we looked at the other results around the Big Ten, as we usually do, but we also looked back at our preseason predictions to see how our soothsaying skills turned out. As usual, we seem to know much more about the Big Ten East than the West, but the same could be said for most people. Alas, we won’t have the divisions anymore, so the wild west will simply have to be wild without ramifications for the Big Ten title game. We’ll be here with you every week from now until the end of the 2023 Ohio State football season (and then monthly). We’d love to hear from you, so please reach out with your feedback and questions below in the comments section or send us an email.

While Jami is guarding her heart by expecting the worst, Matt is feeling confident with his hope for the best. However, the pair dives into all of the bad and good things that will happen in the short-term and long-term for the Buckeyes' program based on the result of this year's edition of The Game, everything from Ryan Day's total vindication with a definitive win to existential uncertainty for the football program for the next decade with a third straight loss.

]]> 2064 Uncut: 'We're Gonna Get It Done for the State of Ohio'; Burke, McCord, Harrison, Simon Confident Heading to Ann Arbor Throughout the year, the Land-Grant Podcast Network will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. On today's episode of "Land-Grant Uncut," we are bringing you unedited audio from the Tuesday, Nov. 21 player media availability featuring multiple Ohio State Buckeyes. With Thanksgiving on Thursday, players met with the media earlier than normal. We have audio from cornerback Denzel Burke, quarterback Kyle McCord, wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr., and linebacker Cody Simon. All four of the players seemed calm and confident with the game coming up on Saturday, but no one was out-of-hand cocky. Burke did make a matter-of-fact declaration that felt very similar to Jim Tressel's statement in front of an OSU basketball crowd on the day that he was named the Buckeyes' head coach.

On today's episode of "Land-Grant Uncut," we are bringing you unedited audio from the Tuesday, Nov. 21 press conference featuring head football coach Ryan Day and defensive coordinator Jim Knowles. Since this is Thanksgiving Week, there will not be any other media availabilities before The Game, aside from Day's radio show responsibilities, but reporters were able to talk to a handful of players on Tuesday. That audio will be in Thursday's episode of "Land-Grant Uncut." Both Day and Knowles attempted to stay as vanilla as they don't want to set off another firestorm of controversy before heading up to Ann Arbor this weekend. However, they did discuss a handful of injuries and how they are progressing, some schematic changes that could come into play on Saturday, and some hindsight quarterback recruiting questions.

]]> 2839 I-80 Football Show: It All Comes Down to 'The Game' Welcome to a new episode of Fans First Football Network’s I-80 Football Show. On this show, we travel down I-80 to talk all things Big Ten Football. This is the only Big Ten Podcast that’ll cover all 18 teams. After every week of action, we will catch you up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players you should be paying attention to for the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. After a break from the podcast, the guys catch up on a lot of the news they missed. We discuss fired coaches, USC struggles, Northwestern’s turnaround, and the Michigan cheating scandal. While many in college football are too harsh on Caleb Williams, Jordan is happy that Lincoln Riley is struggling. Riley is self-absorbed and refuses to change, he now has to deal with the fact that he could not win the PAC-12 with Caleb Williams and wasted his most talented quarterbacks last season losing five games before Williams heads to the NFL. It. Is. Time.  Rivalry week, A.K.A. hate week is here. In the Big Ten, there are a bunch of rivalry games with meaning. Nebraska, Illinois, and Minnesota need wins against their rivals to reach bowl eligibility and end the season on a positive note. Rutgers, already bowl-eligible, is trying to end Maryland’s two-game win streak and finish the season on top of their East Coast counterpart.  The biggest game of all is of course ‘The Game’. Ohio State vs. Michigan is the best rivalry in all of sports and this time it’s for all the marbles. Two undefeated teams, the winner gets a chance to bully Iowa en route to a playoff berth while the loser has to watch the other compete for a national championship. This iteration of the game has massive stakes on its own but when you include the Michigan cheating scandal and Jim Harbaugh's three-game suspension it has even bigger implications. Dante and Jordan both believe Ohio State gets the win, Dante has it 30-27 while Jordan has it 30-20. Put 60 minutes on the clock, the latest edition of ‘The Game’ is around almost here.  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sign up with MyBookie using our link to receive your welcome bonus: https://mybookie.website/Grant23 Follow the show on YouTube: @JordanW330  Follow the podcast on Instagram: @I80FootballShow  Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 and Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

Monday, the Ohio State women's basketball team played its second neutral site game of the season. This time, at the Baha Mar Pink Flamingo Championship, against the East Carolina Pirates. In a game where the Pirates came within one point of the Buckeyes in the second quarter, Ohio State adjusted and turned up the intensity in the second half to pull away with a comfortable 79-55 win. After the game, head coach Kevin McGuff and forwards Taylor Thierry and Rebeka Mikulášiková spoke with the media. Coach McGuff discussed a contentious third quarter moment after Thierry went to the ground on an intentional foul on ECU. Also, improved rebounding and playing against a similar style of full court press as their own. Thierry and Mikulášiková talked about staying cool in a physical game and Mikulášiková talked about her improved shooting as the game went on, especially from deep.

]]> 1013 Silver Bullets Podcast: Minnesota rewind and Michigan preview Ohio State handled its “trap” game with no real difficulty, dispatching the Minnesota Golden Gophers 37-3 at the Horseshoe on Saturday. The Buckeyes easily marched down the field for the first score and then the offense struggled for much of the rest of the first half. Meanwhile, the defense was stifling and kept the Gophers from getting anything going all game long. We looked back at Saturday’s win over Minnesota and broke down how the game unfolded. We also looked back at our score predictions and our picks to click to see how our forecasting skills worked out for us against the Golden Gophers. We took our weekly walk through the other Big Ten scores to see how the rest of the conference made out. There honestly weren’t a ton of surprises around the league on Saturday, although Michigan struggled a bit after jumping on top early. If not for a lot of self-inflicted wounds, Maryland might have stunned the Wolverines. As it turned out, the Terps only lost by a touchdown. After checking the scoreboard, we dove into the happenings at Michigan, including all that has transpired since our last show. Jim Harbaugh did not have his day in court, a defensive coach deleted his Twitter account, another one was fired, and the University of Michigan doesn’t seem interested in wording its statements in a way that aligns with those coming out of the Big Ten offices. It’s a strange situation that will likely only get weirder as more is uncovered. Finally, we looked ahead to The Game. It’s what we’ve all been waiting for all season and both teams enter the rivalry matchup without a loss. Both seem vulnerable at times and unbeatable at others. We also made our picks to click and our score predictions. We’ll be here with you every week from now until the end of the 2023 Ohio State football season (and then monthly).

Following Ohio State’s 73-56 win over the Western Michigan Broncos Sunday afternoon, Jamison Battle, Dale Bonner, and Chris Holtmann spoke to the media about the contest, which was technically the opening round of the Emerald Coast Classic. Battle and Bonner spent some time talking about Zed Key when asked about his recovery from shoulder surgery and his quality of play so soon after getting back on the court. Battle said that Key is a “gamer” and that his years of experience in the Big Ten show how tough he is. Both he and Bonner said that they loved Key’s three-pointer he knocked down in the first half. Holtmann gave credit to Western Michigan, and said, “Once they’re healthier they’re going to have a really good year.” He discussed the difference in pace when you’re playing against a zone defense vs typical man-to-man, and also talked about Bruce Thornton’s progression into a more natural and effective point guard.

]]> 1520 Uncut: Chris Holtmann, Roddy Gayle, and Evan Mahaffey discuss 76-52 win over Merrimack Throughout the year, Land-Grant Podcast Network will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. Following a 76-52 win over Merrimack, we spoke to Roddy Gayle, Evan Mahaffey, and head coach Chris Holtmann about what worked and what did not. Gayle was asked about the multiple dunks he threw down, but also made a point to say that Holtmann and Jake Diebler “put him in positions where he was allowed to fail,” which has been crucially important in his development. Mahaffey talked about how Ohio State wanted to attack Merrimack’s zone, which included his ability to sit in the middle and open up the floor more for others. Holtmann spoke afterwards, and was exceedingly complimentary of Gayle, Devin Royal, and Felix Okpara, who started the game but only played 12 minutes. Holtmann said Merrimack’s big man made it hard on Okpara, and that Zed Key was “just the better option tonight.” Sign up with MyBookie using our link to receive your welcome bonus: https://mybookie.website/Grant23 Connect with Connor: Twitter: @lemons_connor Theme music provided by www.bensound.com  Learn more about your ad choices.

Join LGHL’s Josh Dooley and Chuck Holmes as they discuss Ohio State football, recruiting, and much, much more! Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of “Hangout in the Holy Land,” the dynamic duo is back together, and they’ve got some bones to pick. Josh and Chuck call out University of Michigan football coaches - as well as the university’s ‘leadership’ - for their absurd behavior. Is U of M’s response to Big Ten punishment legit? Or some form of obnoxious trolling? Next, after a quick recap of Ryan Day’s Tuesday press conference, the Hangout boys jump into a preview of Ohio State-Minnesota (on the gridiron). The Buckeyes host their final home game of the 2023-24 season Saturday, with a trip to Ann Arbor looming in the not-so-distant future. So for OSU, this weekend’s gameplan should focus on starting fast, scoring often, and hopefully sitting stars late. Please make sure to like, rate, review, and subscribe to the podcast!

]]> 3737 yes Silver Bullets Podcast: Michigan State rewind and Minnesota preview For once, it was nice to not have to sit through a frustrating first half waiting for Ohio State to put some drives together and take control of the game. The Buckeyes dominated the Michigan State Spartans from start to finish and fans got to see quite a few backups in the second half, especially in the fourth quarter. We break down Ohio State’s easy night in those cool, gray, alternate uniforms. We also looked back at our score predictions and our picks to click to see how we fared at prognosticating the game. After our Sparty rewind, we took our usual walk through the other Big Ten results, including that big game over in Happy Valley. If you like defense or hate offense (or both), that was the game for you. Of course, we had to also dive into the Michigan sign-stealing scandal and the Big Ten’s response late last week. We also had to point out the ludicrous reaction by the Wolverines after the game as they painted themselves as the victims when that’s not really how breaking the rules works. Finally, we looked ahead to Saturday afternoon’s “Senior Day” game against the Minnesota Golden Gophers. The Gophers just got handled by Purdue but there’s some talent on that Minnesota team. However, Ohio State just has to show up and handle its business and things should be fine on Saturday. We’ll be here with you every week from now until the end of the 2023 Ohio State football season (and then monthly).

He recaps a Buckeye blowout on the gridiron, a tough defeat on the hardwood, and all the other Ohio State-related news you can handle.

Did the punishment fit the crime? And what now? Next up is OSU men’s basketball... And finally, Chuck gets to the main course: A Buckeye football recap. After two straight good-not-great performances on the road, Ryan Day’s squad was back in The Shoe on Saturday night and put a four-quarter thumping on the Michigan State Spartans. Ohio State coasted to a 38 - 3 victory, despite several injured Buckeyes watching from the sideline.

]]> 4715 Instant Recap: Kyle McCord Shows He's the Best QB in the Big Ten Against Michigan State On LGHL Instant Recap Pods, Land-Grant Holy Land writers break down Ohio State games just minutes after the action ends. They bring you the biggest stats, storylines, and moments of the game before the players make it back to the locker room. The Ohio State Buckeyes used a nearly flawless first half to blowout the Michigan State Spartans 38-3 on Saturday night. In what is unquestionably Kyle McCord's best game as the Buckeyes' starter, he went 24-for-31 for 335 yards and 3 touchdowns. Marvin Harrison Jr. continued to make his Heisman Trophy candidacy case with 149 yards receiving and TDs through the air and another -- his first -- rushing. The OSU defense was a bit banged up without starting safeties Lathan Ransom and Josh Proctor or captain and starting linebacker Tommy Eichenberg, but -- despite giving up a little bit of yardage early on -- held Michigan State to just 182 yards of total offense. The Ohio State special teams continue to be a problem, but we are focusing on good vibes tonight.

Following Texas A&M’s 73-66 win over the Buckeyes in Columbus, both head coaches, as well as select players, spoke to the media about the grindy, gritty non-conference bout. Bruce Thornton and Jamison Battle spoke first. Thornton mentioned Ohio State’s struggles at the free throw line no fewer than five times, saying that if the Buckeyes had hit a few more, they’d have been in “a much better spot.” Battle mentioned that his team fouled a few too many times, which handed the Aggies free points. We then spoke to Tyrece “Boots” Radford and Henry Coleman, who both scored 20+ points in the game. Radford said the game was just “two teams hooping” and going “bucket for bucket,” but that the Aggies were the team able to string a few baskets together at the end of the game and pull out the win. Buzz Williams followed and was able to recite exactly how many rebound opportunities Ohio State had in their exhibition game against Dayton and their win over Oakland. He said he told his team he wanted “50 rebounds” and that rebounding is “woven into everything they do” at Texas A&M. Chris Holtmann closed the press conference. He felt the rebounding issues mostly stemmed from his team’s inability to contain Radford and Wade Taylor, which caused help defense to jump the ball and not have as many people available to rebound.

Your hosts, Matt Tamanini and Jami Jurich, will (of course) talk Ohio State sports, but the primary focus of the show will be on what’s going on around the periphery, such as weird/funny happenings in college football and the sports world at large, as well as other things that keep us interested in between games. On this episode of the Land-Grant Podcast Network's sports-adjacent podcast "Stick to Sports," Matt Tamanini and Jami Jurich call out all of the haters who said C.J. Stroud was overrated and nothing more than a system quarterback. They also look ahead to the Ohio State men's basketball season on the eve of their second game as they welcome the No. 15 Texas A&M Aggies to the Schott. They also dive into the latest -- pre-suspension -- hilarity that is this Michigan sign-stealing fiasco and their feelings on the first half of the "Great British Baking Show" season.

Join LGHL’s Josh Dooley and Chuck Holmes as they discuss Ohio State football, recruiting, and much, much more! Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of “Hangout in the Holy Land,” Josh and Chuck overreact to losses or near-losses by both Ohio State basketball squads, injury woes for the Buckeyes’ football team, and the sense both get that this whole Michigan investigation will be fumbled, bumbled, and/or just plain f*cked by both the Big Ten and NCAA. The hosts kick things off with a little basketball talk. Because it’s been a while, and the Buckeye ballers are back, baby! Unfortunately, the OSU women dropped a tough opener to USC, while the men barely squeaked by Oakland... Of the Horizon League. Not a great start, but as in basketball and as in life, both squads will look to rebound. The Hangout boys then move on to Ohio State football, as they discuss a Scarlet and Gray squad that remains both undefeated and imperfect. The guys look ahead to Saturday night in The Shoe while bantering about quarterback play, injuries, and the need for a ‘get-right’ blowout. Plus, the U of M ‘scandal’...

]]> 3540 Silver Bullets Podcast: Rutgers rewind and Michigan State Preview Ohio State concluded its two-game road trip with a 35-16 win over Rutgers that was far more frustrating in the first half than the second. Greg Schiano has a tough, physical football team with a sound defense and it took Ohio State a minute to figure it out. Despite trailing 9-7 at halftime, the Buckeyes found another gear in the second half after a 93-yard interception return for a touchdown by Jordan Hancock and never trailed again. We look back at another meh offensive performance, check in on our score predictions, and analyze the game overall. We also checked back on the players we picked to click and it was not a great night for our selections on the offensive side of the football. We took our usual walk through the other results around the Big Ten, where there still doesn’t seem to be anyone who wants to hang onto the lead in the B1G West. We thought it might be Nebraska, but apparently not. Iowa is in the driver’s seat now, which usually spells disaster for any team in that position. Finally, we looked ahead to the Michigan State Spartans, who will visit the Buckeyes on Saturday night. It’s an ultra-rare November night game for the Buckeyes, and hopefully the friendly crowd and fancy alternate uniforms can inspire Ohio State to not play with its food for one week. We try our hand at predicting the final score and make our selections for the offensive and defensive OSU players that we “pick to click.” Hopefully we did a better job of it this week than we did last time out. We’ll be here with you every week from now until the end of the 2023 Ohio State football season (and then monthly).

They bring you the biggest stats, storylines, and moments of the game before the players make it back to the locker room. It wasn't always pretty -- and none of them have been this season -- but not only did the No. 1 Ohio State Buckeyes get out of Piscataway, New Jersey with a win, but they also got a cover, which we all know that great teams do. The Buckeyes knocked off the Rutgers Scarlet Knights by a score of 35 to 16. The final score does not accurately convey just how close the game was and how much trouble it appeared that OSU was in at different points in the game. However, the defense and TreVeyon Henderson ended up showing why they are among the best at what they do and turned what was a close, contentious game into the third quarter into a runaway win. On this postgame show, Matt Tamanini and Justin Golba discuss what worked and what didn't for OSU and get into what Ryan Day and company should do about Kyle McCord.

Join LGHL’s Josh Dooley and Chuck Holmes as they discuss Ohio Statefootball, recruiting, and much, much more! Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of “Hangout in the Holy Land,” Josh and Chuck begin with a very important discussion on Halloween candy and fall(ish) weather in Ohio. But bear with them, the conversation is brief. The hosts then move on to more relevant topics, like initial College Football Playoff rankings, as well as Ohio State injuries and snap counts. Recording before Tuesday night’s first CFP reveal, the guys attempt to predict the top-4. How high can the Buckeyes possibly go? Will the committee go chalk? And how accurate were the hosts? Listen to find out. Finally, after touching on the health of Kyle McCord and others, the Hangout boys become Jersey boys as they preview OSU’s roadie at Rutgers. The Scarlet Knights are an impressive 6-2, but own a less-than-impressive strength of schedule. Regardless of who they’ve played and/or beaten before, Greg Schiano will undoubtedly have his team ready for a battle with the Buckeyes this weekend.

]]> 3562 Silver Bullets Podcast: Wisconsin rewind and Rutgers preview The Buckeyes went to Wisconsin after their big win over Penn State, and against the Badgers they played almost an exact replica of the game they’d played the week before at home vs. the Nittany Lions. It was a frustrating night watching the offense stall, and quarterback Kyle McCord struggled once again in the first half. However, the defense played lights out once again with the exception of one drive and part of another (before eventually putting the clamps on for a key goal-line stand), and once Wisconsin erased a 10-0 deficit and tied the game, it was all Ohio State. We break down the win over the Badgers, with the key plays, mistakes, and players involved, look back on our score predictions, and see how well we predicted the key players when we checked on our picks to click (we whiffed bigtime on the latter). After our game rewind, we take our usual look around the rest of the Big Ten to see how other teams fared. Suddenly Nebraska looks competent after three straight wins, while Maryland’s wheels have come off a bit in recent weeks. The Cornhuskers might be the only team interested in winning the B1G West, but things change quickly over there. We didn’t dive too deeply, but we did discuss the Michigan sign-stealing scandal and noted that the university has rescinded its contract extension offer to Jim Harbaugh. Finally, we looked ahead to Saturday’s visit to Piscataway. Rutgers is already bowl eligible and will present the third consecutive tough, physical defense the Buckeyes have faced in succession. The Scarlet Knights have been playing hard for Greg Schiano and Ohio State can’t afford to take anyone lightly while the offense is sputtering. We made our score predictions and our selections for our picks to click both offensively and defensively for the Buckeyes. We’ll be here with you every week from now until the end of the 2023 Ohio State football season (and then monthly).

On this episode of ‘Hangout in the Holy Land,’ Josh and Chuck attempt to predict this week’s initial College Football Playoff rankings, before discussing a less-than-stellar outing from their Ohio State Buckeyes. At the top of the show, the Hangout boys banter about where teams should be ranked in the CFP, as well as which players should be in the Heisman conversation. The guys disagree on rankings, but only because Josh believes that the CFP selection committee will do whatever it wants in the last year of the four-team playoff. Conversely, the hosts have nearly identical Heisman thoughts. Chief among them is the fact that Marvin Harrison Jr. should be considered one of the current favorites. As for Ohio State's win over Wisconsin... Well, at least the Buckeyes have Marv, TreVeyon Henderson, and Jim Knowles. The Hangout guys were disappointed in OSU’s ‘other’ guys, but a win is a win. However, if Ryan Day’s squad is to eventually hoist a CFP trophy, they will need much better play from QB Kyle McCord, as well as his offensive line and supporting cast.

]]> 1529 Stick to Sports: What Do Michigan, the Denver Airport, and Blucifer Have in Common? Land-Grant Holy Land’s Stick to Sports is unlike any podcast you’ve heard on the Ohio State beat. Your hosts, Matt Tamanini and Jami Jurich, will (of course) talk Ohio State sports, but the primary focus of the show will be on what’s going on around the periphery, such as weird/funny happenings in college football and the sports world at large, as well as other things that keep us interested in between games. On this episode of the Land-Grant Podcast Network's sports-adjacent podcast "Stick to Sports," Matt Tamanini and Jami Jurich laugh nearly uncontrollably about the bumbling nature with which the University of Michigan football program handled its illegal spying program. Was it successful for two years? Who really knows? But the keystone cops' way they went about it makes its unraveling that much funnier. They also dive into how this has brought out the goofiest conspiracy theories from the Corn and Blue fans, reminiscent of one of Jami's favorite conspiracy theories. Finally, they talk about OSU facing Luke Fickell, "Killers of the Flower Moon," and the joys of Hallmark Christmas movies. Jami's Recommendation: "Killers of the Flower Moon" https://www.killersoftheflowermoonmovie.com Matt's Recommendation: Hallmark's Countdown to Christmas https://thestreamable.com/news/holiday-movie-roundup-2023-all-of-the-christmas-films-from-hallmark-great-american-family-lifetime-more Connect with Jami Jurich Twitter: @JamiJurich Connect with Matt Tamanini Twitter: @BWWMatt Theme music provided by www.bensound.com  Sign up with MyBookie using our link to receive your welcome bonus: https://mybookie.website/Grant23 Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 4796 yes Hangout in the Holy Land: Spy Games! Plus the Buckeyes head to Madison, to ‘Jump Around’ and face old friend Luke Fickell The latest episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s flagship podcast is here! Join LGHL’s Josh Dooley and Chuck Holmes as they discuss Ohio Statefootball, recruiting, and much, much more! Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of ‘Hangout in the Holy Land,’ Josh and Chuck attempt to break down and intelligently discuss TTUN’s (alleged) sign stealing. Thing or not a thing? Were punishable lines crossed? And who was directly involved? In other words, who ordered the code red!? After ‘Conspiracy Hour’, the hosts look ahead to Ohio State’s upcoming road game against Wisconsin. Led by former OSU player and coach Luke Fickell, the Badgers looked like a team struggling with transition for the first month of the season. But thanks to a few gritty wins and Iowa’s surprising loss to Minnesota, Fickell and Co. are firmly back in the Big Ten West race, looking to upset the Buckeyes and set up a possible rematch in Indianapolis. Despite each team dealing with impactful injuries, both Ohio State and Wisconsin took care of business last weekend, leading to or creating this pivotal cross-division matchup. And while the Buckeyes are currently a two-score favorite, the Badgers and their coach should not be taken lightly. On top of Fickell being one of the best coaches in the country, the atmosphere in and around Camp Randall Stadium will be raucous and potentially game-altering on Saturday night. Can OSU quarterback Kyle McCord quiet the noise like he did against Notre Dame? And how many offensive weapons will he have at his disposal? This has all the makings of a classic trap game for the Buckeyes, but the Hangout boys are optimistic that Ohio State’s clutch offense and stingy defense will travel.

]]> 4074 Silver Bullets Podcast: Penn State rewind and Wisconsin preview The Buckeyes passed their second huge test of the 2023 college football season, outlasting the Penn State Nittany Lions 20-12 in a defensive rock fight of a game. The Buckeye defense played lights out, but it probably helped that James Franklin decided not to try to persistently run, because Drew Allar did not look much like a five-star recruit on Saturday. That could be due to the pressure of the OSU front, the hostile atmosphere, or some other factor, but despite a couple of decent early runs, Penn State curiously strayed from it a bit and became both predictable and ineffective. We broke down Saturday’s scarlet-out win and checked back on our score predictions and our picks to click to see how close our pregame imaginations came to the real thing. After that, we took our weekly stroll through the Big Ten scoreboard to see which B1G West team threw away its turn in the division’s driver’s seat on Saturday (it was Iowa). Wisconsin appears to have moved to the top of the pile out west after a complete collapse by Illinois in the fourth quarter. We also have to tell our children about a bowl-eligible Rutgers team. Finally, we looked ahead to the Buckeyes’ trip to Madison for a Saturday night game at Camp Randall Stadium. Wisconsin figures to be every bit as physical and tough as Penn State. The Badgers may not have the Nittany Lions’ talent across the board, but they’ve got the intimidating home crowd in a night game and this will be a good test to see if Ohio State can keep from resting on its laurels after a hard-fought win against a fellow Top 10 opponent. We’ll be here with you every week from now until the end of the 2023 Ohio State football season.

Following Ohio State’s 78-70 win over Dayton on Sunday night during a charity exhibition match, Chris Holtmann, Jamison Battle, Bruce Thornton, and Devin Royal spoke to the media about the game, their thoughts about the team moving forward, and mental health. Holtmann spoke first and repeated over and over that the result of today’s game was the least important aspect of the event. He told his team that, “everything coming out of today would be positive, regardless of how this ends.” It took him a while to get through some questions on mental health, taking some time to hold his composure before speaking on something that’s important to him and the Ohio State program. Afterward, Battle, Royal, and Thornton spoke to the media about the results of the game, what can be improved on, and their thoughts on mental health, and what they do to keep everything right in their mind during a grueling basketball season.

]]> 2641 Hangout in the Holy Land: A Jim Knowles legacy game in October?... F*%@ it, a Jim Knowles legacy game in October! The latest episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s flagship podcast is here! Join LGHL’s Josh Dooley and Chuck Holmes as they discuss Ohio State football, recruiting, and much, much more! Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of ‘Hangout in the Holy Land,’ Josh and Chuck give props to not only OSU defensive coordinator Jim Knowles, but also Larry Johnson, Tim Walton, Perry Eliano and the players, as Ohio State rode their stingy defense to a second victory (this season) over a top-10 team — stifling a normally productive Penn State offense in the process. But first, the hosts discuss other goings-on around the CFB landscape, as several ranked teams played close games. Closer than they ever should have been. Both Washington and Oklahoma struggled coming off of big, emotional victories, while Iowa... Iowa’ed? As a result of the latter, the Big Ten West is unfortunately and comically wide open, and the Hangout boys are both disgusted and amused. The title race is heating up, and so is the Heisman race.

The Buckeyes’ DC and his group of coaches have their ‘Silver Bullets’ playing at a championship level.

Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of ‘Hangout in the Holy Land,’ Josh and Chuck give props to not only OSU defensive coordinator Jim Knowles, but also Larry Johnson, Tim Walton, Perry Eliano and the players, as Ohio State rode their stingy defense to a second victory (this season) over a top-10 team — stifling a normally productive Penn State offense in the process.

On LGHL Instant Recap Pods, Land-Grant Holy Land writers break down Ohio State games just minutes after the action ends. They bring you the biggest stats, storylines, and moments of the game before the players make it back to the locker room. What an absolutely historic defensive performance from the No. 3 Ohio State Buckeyes as they dispatched the No. 7 Penn State Nittany Lions 20-12 in Ohio Stadium on Saturday afternoon. The Silver Bullets played perhaps their best game in half a decade, completely shutting down an offense that had been putting up 44 points per game this season. Now, there is still a lot to be desired from the offense with drops, bad throws, red zone inefficiencies, running game issues, and poor play-calling still popping up their ugly heads, but thanks to a career-best 11 receptions, Marvin Harrison Jr. helped the OSU offense do enough to pull off their second top-10 victory of the season. Because of the wins over Notre Dame and PSU, our Matt Tamanini believes that there is no doubt that Ohio State should be the No. 1 team in the country.

Land-Grant Holy Land’s Stick to Sports is unlike any podcast you’ve heard on the Ohio State beat. Your hosts, Matt Tamanini and Jami Jurich, will (of course) talk Ohio State sports, but the primary focus of the show will be on what’s going on around the periphery, such as weird/funny happenings in college football and the sports world at large, as well as other things that keep us interested in between games.

They discuss their own superstitions, whether all fans nitpick their teams as much as Buckeye Nation does, and why PSU winning would be worse than losing to Michigan.

Join LGHL’s Josh Dooley and Chuck Holmes as they discuss Ohio Statefootball, recruiting, and much, much more! Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. Holy sh..., it’s Penn State week! On this episode of ‘Hangout in the Holy Land,’ Josh and Chuck preview Ohio State’s upcoming game against the impressive and thus far undefeated Nittany Lions.  While the Buckeyes have dominated this ‘rivalry’ in recent years, Penn State is inarguably one of CFB’s top teams in 2023. Led by a stout defense, a potent ground game, and Ohio native Drew Allar at QB, James Franklin’s squad should come rolling into Columbus with plenty of confidence. On the other side - the good side - OSU should be equally as confident. The similarly undefeated Scarlet and Gray have enjoyed a run of great success against PSU, winning 16 of the last 20 matchups. However, the Buckeyes could be missing key pieces on both offense and defense, putting them at a potential disadvantage — even at home. The Hangout boys are somehow nervous and confident at the same time, as they break down key matchups and matters of the utmost importance for both teams. They expect a banger of a game and attempt to give you a banger of an episode this time around. Please make sure to like, rate, review, and subscribe to the podcast! And as always, Go Bucks!

Led by a stout defense, a potent ground game, and Ohio native Drew Allar at QB, James Franklin’s squad should come rolling into Columbus with plenty of confidence. On the other side - the good side - OSU should be equally as confident. The similarly undefeated Scarlet and Gray have enjoyed a run of great success against PSU, winning 16 of the last 20 matchups. However, the Buckeyes could be missing key pieces on both offense and defense, putting them at a potential disadvantage — even at home. The Hangout boys are somehow nervous and confident at the same time, as they break down key matchups and matters of the utmost importance for both teams. They expect a banger of a game and attempt to give you a banger of an episode this time around. Please make sure to like, rate, review, and subscribe to the podcast! And as always, Go Bucks!

]]> 3767 Silver Bullets Podcast: Purdue rewind and Penn State preview Ohio State avoided a “Purdue Harbor” situation by running the football, throwing the ball to Marvin Harrison, Jr. and Cade Stover, and playing sound defense. The Buckeyes were hardly bothered on the road in a 41-7 victory at Ross-Ade Stadium, a house that held no horrors for Ohio State on this particular October visit. We started this week’s show with a breakdown of the Buckeyes’ lopsided away win, including some of the key drives, plays, players, and moments. We checked back on our picks to click and score predictions to see who had the more accurate crystal ball aimed at West Lafayette. Following our Purdue rewind, we welcomed Matt de Bear from the Roar Lions Roar podcast back to the show to tap into his Penn State expertise once again. Matt always has a good handle on where the Nittany Lions are stronger and weaker, and we thank him for giving us his honest answers about where his team stands at the season’s midway point. No midseason episode of this podcast would be complete without a look around at the rest of the Big Ten scores from the weekend. It was a disastrous weekend for Maryland and Wisconsin, but Illinois may have gotten itself going, although perhaps a bit too late. Rutgers staged a massive comeback to keep the Scarlet Knights on track for a bowl game in 2023. Everything else went about as expected. Finally, we looked ahead to Saturday’s showdown with Penn State. We made our predictions on what the final score will look like and selected our “picks to click” — the players we think will make a difference on both sides of the ball for Ohio State. We’ll be here with you every week from now until the end of the 2023 Ohio State football season.

Join LGHL’s Josh Dooley and Chuck Holmes as they discuss Ohio State football, recruiting, and much, much more! Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of ‘Hangout in the Holy Land,’ Josh and Chuck recap Ohio State’s impressive but potentially costly win over the Purdue Boilermakers. The Buckeyes went into West Lafayette and took care of business, but watched the team’s second leading rusher and arguably their best defensive player leave the game due to injury. Saturday’s Scarlet and Gray action was available exclusively on ‘Peacock’, making it about as fun as a trip to the dentist for your hosts. The guys discuss how unenjoyable their viewing experience was, before pivoting to positives, including a surprise BOOM and of course, a decisive OSU victory. Down multiple running backs and a star wideout, Ohio State went into Ross-Ade Stadium and dominated anyway. The hosts continue to be impressed by Kyle McCord and the Buckeyes’ defense, and they also believe that running back Dallan Hayden should receive more playing time. However, OSU’s victory did come at a cost. RB Chip Trayanum and CB Denzel Burke left with injuries, adding to the team’s recent health woes.

]]> 4697 Instant Recap: Peacock Sucks and Ohio State Had Its Best Game Against Purdue On LGHL Instant Recap Pods, Land-Grant Holy Land writers break down Ohio State games just minutes after the action ends. They bring you the biggest stats, storylines, and moments of the game before the players make it back to the locker room. On today's episode, Matt Tamanini and Justin Golba are breaking down No.3 Ohio State's 40-7 victory over the Purdue Boilermakers. It certainly wasn't a perfect performance from the Buckeyes, but it felt like OSU did everything that it needed to do in order to get prepared for the challenge Penn State will present next weekend. Kyle McCord had arguably his most complete performance of the season and the defense continued to show a remarkable ability for keeping opposing offenses out of the end zone. Of course, there were a few negatives as both running back Chip Trayanum and cornerback Denzel Burke left the game due to injuries. As of recording time, Ohio State had not provided any updates as to the severity of their injuries, but Trayanum appeared to be in concussion protocol, while Burke seemed to be dealing with a leg injury. The Buckeye wide receivers -- including Marvin Harrison Jr. -- had an abnormal number of drops, but if that is the biggest issue for a team, then you are in pretty good shape.

Join LGHL’s Josh Dooley and Chuck Holmes as they discuss Ohio Statefootball, recruiting, and much, much more! Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of ‘Hangout in the Holy Land,’ Josh and Chuck reluctantly preview Ohio State’s upcoming road trip to West Lafayette (IN) and Purdue’s Ross-Ade Stadium. Reluctantly, because it seems like just whispering “Ross-Ade” has a spooky, Beetlejuice-like effect.  The Boilermakers’ home venue has long been a house of horrors for the Buckeyes, with the latter dropping five games in West Lafayette since 2000. Including three of their last four! While Ross-Ade was also the site of ‘Holy Buckeye’, there is no doubt that Purdue’s stadium has been more worrisome than welcoming to the Scarlet and Gray. So will OSU continue to struggle at Ross-Ade, and deal with the Ghost of Upsets Past? Or is the talent gap between Ryan Day’s and Ryan Walters’ teams just too big this season? Against their better judgement, the hosts feel pretty good about their Buckeyes this weekend. The look-ahead possibilities are very real for Ohio State, but Day’s squad can ill afford to go into Penn State week with anything less than 100% confidence.

]]> 3821 Silver Bullets Podcast: Maryland rewind and Purdue preview Ohio State yet again annoyed its fans with some sluggish play in the first half of a game. This time it was against the Maryland Terrapins at home after a bye week. The Buckeyes were expected to build off a big road win at the last second against Notre Dame but struggled offensively in the early going and it wasn’t until Marvin Harrison Jr. started catching passes that the offense got on track. Credit Maryland for playing hard and playing well for long stretches, but a key mistake by the Terps late in the first half allowed the Buckeyes to get to the locker room tied and Ohio State took control in the second half on both sides of the ball. We look back at our score predictions and our picks to click and break down the game’s key plays, players, drives, and calls. After that, we took our usual lap around the Big Ten to check in on other scores from around the league. Things aren’t going well for Bret Bielema’s Fighting Illini, but the Big Ten West is shaping up nicely for first-year Wisconsin coach Luke Fickell.

Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices Tue, 10 Oct 2023 08:00:00 -0000 Silver Bullets Podcast: Maryland rewind and Purdue preview full FFSN A look back at a frustrating first half and a look ahead to a frustrating opponent. Ohio State yet again annoyed its fans with some sluggish play in the first half of a game. This time it was against the Maryland Terrapins at home after a bye week. The Buckeyes were expected to build off a big road win at the last second against Notre Dame but struggled offensively in the early going and it wasn’t until Marvin Harrison Jr. started catching passes that the offense got on track. Credit Maryland for playing hard and playing well for long stretches, but a key mistake by the Terps late in the first half allowed the Buckeyes to get to the locker room tied and Ohio State took control in the second half on both sides of the ball. We look back at our score predictions and our picks to click and break down the game’s key plays, players, drives, and calls. After that, we took our usual lap around the Big Ten to check in on other scores from around the league. Things aren’t going well for Bret Bielema’s Fighting Illini, but the Big Ten West is shaping up nicely for first-year Wisconsin coach Luke Fickell.

]]> 5360 Hangout in the Holy Land: Zombie Buckeyes come to life but questions and issues remain The latest episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s flagship podcast is here! Join LGHL’s Josh Dooley and Chuck Holmes as they discuss Ohio State football, recruiting, and much, much more! Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of ‘Hangout in the Holy Land,’ Josh and Chuck try to keep it positive following their Buckeyes’ 37-17 victory over previously undefeated Maryland. But despite a win and a cover, Ohio State showed real regression on offense, as well as on the sideline. So how concerned should fans be moving forward? While Jim Knowles’ defense continued to impress on Saturday, Ryan Day’s offense did anything but... for the better part of three quarters. Problems along the offensive line were only exacerbated by the absence of TreVeyon Henderson, but both Day and Kyle McCord have to be better if OSU has hopes of winning the Big Ten or a national championship. That likely starts with better first halves. But the sky is not falling yet, as Ohio State does own a spotless 5-0 record. However, these hosts agree that Day’s squad must get better in a hurry with Penn State, Wisconsin, and of course TTUN on the schedule.

They bring you the biggest stats, storylines, and moments of the game before the players make it back to the locker room. On today's episode, Matt Tamanini and Justin Golba are breaking down No. 4 Ohio State's 37-17 victory over the Maryland Terrapins who gave the Buckeyes all that they could handle in the first half of the game. Though the Buckeyes ended up covering the spread, the game was certainly in doubt well into the third quarter, but the OSU defense continued its lights-out play and the offense shook off a worrisome first half and an ineffective running game throughout to show glimpses of the Ohio State offenses of years past. Kyle McCord had his best half as a Buckeye especially as he leaned on his high school teammate Marvin Harrison Jr. There are certainly plenty of questions to ask coming out of this game, but for Matt, those questions lay more at the feet of the coaches than the players.

]]> 3915 Silver Bullets Podcast: Buckeye notes and Maryland preview Without an Ohio State game to recap, this week’s show opens with news and notes from the Buckeyes, including some more black stripes coming off helmets, non-conference scheduling in the coming years, and a decommitment on the offensive line. We dive into these mini topics with gusto and give our thoughts on them while trying not to think too much about cupcakes. Following the opening segment, we welcome Deputy Editor Andrew Chodes from Testudo Times to give us the latest on what’s been going on with the Maryland Terrapins in 2023. Andrew provided plenty of good information on the Terps and although he said he expects an Ohio State victory, you can tell Maryland fans are itching to see if their team is for real and they’ll be using the game on Saturday as a measuring stick. Big thanks to Andrew for his Maryland-specific expertise. After getting the skinny on this weekend’s opponent, we took a look at the other scores around the Big Ten from this past Saturday, and we pose the question: If Illinois can’t get things going under Bret Bielema, where do the Illini go from there? Iowa also has plenty of questions that need to be answered (although most of those questions should be answered with “Fire Brian Ferentz.”). Finally, we look ahead at a big test at home against Maryland. We provide our picks to click and our score predictions and what most of Saturday comes down to is stopping Taulia Tagovailoa and make the Terps beat you some other way. We’ll be here with you every week from now until the end of the 2023 Ohio State football season.

]]> 4638 Silver Bullets Podcast: Notre Dame rewind and a walk through the other Big Ten results Ohio State survived a difficult road test in a tough environment with Saturday’s 17-14 win at Notre Dame at literally the last second. The Buckeyes may have taken six years off our lives in that nailbiter that didn’t seem to need to be one for much of the game, but at least the team emerged with its undefeated record intact. It was a fantastic growing experience for quarterback Kyle McCord, who put on his big boy pants and led the team down the field for a clutch winning touchdown on the road, converting multiple gotta-have-it plays on the final drive. We break down a win to remember with all of the key plays, big performances, and curious coaching decisions (from both sides) that contributed to the outcome of this game. We also look back to see how our predictions and picks to click made out. Following our lengthy discussion of an absurdly entertaining Top 10 matchup, we discuss how the rest of the Big Ten teams made out over the weekend. There were some surprising scores around the league, but perhaps none bigger than Minnesota blowing a three-touchdown lead against Northwestern. Indiana got a scare but prevailed, and Iowa didn’t show up in Happy Valley against what had previously been a vulnerable-looking Penn State squad. And Maryland is off to a great start while Michigan State is in free fall. We’ll be here with you every week from now until the end of the 2023 Ohio State football season.

]]> 2554 Hangout in the Holy Land: Timely toughness and Kardiac Kyle lead Ohio State to an all-time victory The latest episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s flagship podcast is here! Join LGHL’s Josh Dooley and Chuck Holmes as they discuss Ohio State football, recruiting, and much, much more! Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of “Hangout in the Holy Land,” Josh and Chuck prove their toughness and grit in discussing Ohio State’s thrilling, blue-collar victory at Notre Dame. It wasn’t always pretty, but the Buckeyes found a way to get it done in a hostile road environment... Despite a few head-scratching calls and short yardage troubles that continue to (apparently) put Ryan Day’s brain in a pretzel. Will OSU ever figure out the ‘easy’ stuff, or is this just sort of what their fans need to come to grips with? Puzzling strategy and occasional stubbornness aside, how about the Scarlet and Gray finding a way!? The guys give credit to Jim Knowles for a smart gameplan, as well as Kyle McCord for having the fortitude, gumption, and moxie to make big throws in big moments. And finally, while there were no titles on the line in South Bend, this victory felt like an all-timer for Buckeye Nation. As did the WWE-ish promo delivered by Day as he walked off the field. The hosts are hopeful that this win in the presence of Touchdown Jesus gives Ohio State plenty of confidence moving forward. Please make sure to like, rate, review, and subscribe to the podcast!

On LGHL Instant Recap Pods, Land-Grant Holy Land writers break down Ohio State games just minutes after the action ends. They bring you the biggest stats, storylines, and moments of the game before the players make it back to the locker room. On today's episode, Matt Tamanini and Justin Golba are breaking down No. 6 Ohio State's thrilling 17-4 (practically) walk-off victory over the No. 9 Notre Dame Fighting Irish. In a game that ran the full gamut of emotions, the incredible and inconceivable final drive leaves all Buckeye fans feeling giddy and relieved. The final score doesn't erase any of the failures that we saw earlier in the game, but it does remind us of what the team is capable of when hitting on all cylinders. Despite two back-to-back excruciating drives in the second half, the OSU defense proved that they are markedly better than the version we've seen in recent years, and holding that ND offense to just 14 points deserves to be celebrated. And while there are qualms to discuss with the offensive play calling (again), Kyle McCord deserves a ton of credit for how he managed that final, game-winning drive.

Land-Grant Holy Land’s Stick to Sports is unlike any podcast you’ve heard on the Ohio State beat. Your hosts, Matt Tamanini and Jami Jurich, will (of course) talk Ohio State sports, but the primary focus of the show will be on what’s going on around the periphery, such as weird/funny happenings in college football and the sports world at large, as well as other things that keep us interested in between games. Tonight, the No. 6 Ohio State Buckeyes will go on the road to take on the No. 9 Notre Dame Fighting Irish. It is inarguably the biggest game of the first half of the Buckeyes' season, but our own Jami Jurich is choosing not to watch. She will be in London and since the game starts at 12:30 a.m. BST on Sunday, so instead of subjecting herself to the stress of watching the game in the middle of the night, she is going to sleep through it and just check out the score when she wakes up.

]]> 2267 Uncut: Notre Dame's Marcus Freeman Knows His Team Much Better Than He Did Last Time They Faced Ohio State Throughout the year, the Land-Grant Podcast Network will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. On today's episode of "Land-Grant Uncut," we are bringing you unedited audio from Notre Dame head football coach Marcus Freeman and starting quarterback Sam Hartman from their respective Monday, Sept. 18 press conferences. In the Irish's weekly press conference heading into their primetime matchup with Ohio State this coming Saturday, Freeman conceded that when the two teams met up last year, he was unsure of what to expect from his team, given it was the season opener and his first true game as the ND head coach. The former Buckeye admits that he attempted to take the air out of the ball in order to keep it away from the OSU offense, but he has a much better understanding of who his team is coming into Game No. 5 of the 2023 campaign. His new quarterback, who transferred from Wake Forest this off-season, discussed how this game compares to those he played in the ACC.

]]> 2997 Silver Bullets Podcast: Western Kentucky rewind and Notre Dame Preview At long last, the Buckeyes finally looked like the Buckeyes. While Western Kentucky might not be the strongest test, it was at least nice to see Ohio State playing football that resembles what we’ve seen from the Buckeyes in recent years. The 63-10 win was a comprehensive one, although it wasn’t without its bumps in the early going. In the end, the improving Ohio State offensive line did well and the defense continues to look good. Heck, they even came up with some defensive touchdowns in this one. We break down the lopsided win with all of the key plays and performers and check back on our score predictions and picks to click to see how we did. We actually did well this week, although we underestimated Ohio State’s ability to improve and score points. After the recap, we were joined by Brendan McAlinden of the One Foot Down blog, which covers Notre Dame. Brendan’s encyclopedic knowledge of the Fighting Irish helps get you ready for Saturday’s Top 10 showdown in South Bend. After our discussion with Brendan, we toured the other results from the weekend around the Big Ten. Sparty seems to be in trouble, Wisconsin is shaky at times, Northwestern is bad, and Rutgers and Maryland are both halfway to bowl eligibility. Finally, we looked at the matchup with Notre Dame and chose the players we pick to click and made our score predictions for Saturday. We’re expecting a tight game and a little bit lower scoring matchup than your usual Ohio State contest. We’ll check back next week to see how we did in predicting this highly anticipated game between two of college football’s true bluebloods. We’ll be here with you every week from now until the end of the 2023 Ohio State football season.

]]> 4716 Instant Recap: Buckeyes Put It All Together to Blowout Western Kentucky On LGHL Instant Recap Pods, Land-Grant Holy Land writers break down Ohio State games just minutes after the action ends. They bring you the biggest stats, storylines, and moments of the game before the players make it back to the locker room. After a somewhat shaky start to the game on Saturday, the No. 6 Ohio State Buckeyes absolutely blew the doors off of the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers to the tune of a 63-10 victory. Kyle McCord looked every part of a Buckeye starting quarterback going for 318 yards on 19-of-23 passing. Marvin Harrison Jr. was -- unsurprisingly -- the biggest recipient of those passes, wracking up 126 yards and a touchdown, but Emeka Egbuka was also instrumental in the victory as he accounted for two Buckeye TDs. On the ground, TreVeyon Henderson also had a big day rushing for a pair of scores and Chip Trayanum also had one as well. The offense felt like it finally figured out the best way to operate with someone who wasn't C.J. Stroud at the helm. After an early fumble, McCord looked confident and in control of the offense and had an impressive day before giving way to Devin Brown in the fourth quarter. The defense also came to play, holding one of the most prolific passing offenses in college football to just 204 yards through the air and 284 overall. They also delivered WKU quarterback Austin Reed his first sack and interception of the year. In total, the Buckeye had four takeaways, including a pair that went for scores. Overall, it was about as good of a final tuneup game as you could get before heading to South Bend next weekend.

Join LGHL’s Josh Dooley and Chuck Holmes as they discuss Ohio Statefootball, recruiting, and much, much more! Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of “Hangout in the Holy Land,” Josh and Chuck look ahead to a potential shootout in The Shoe, as Ohio State hosts Western Kentucky and their high octane offense in Week 3. The Buckeyes are once again favored to win by multiple scores, as they should be when hosting a Conference USA opponent. But the WKU Hilltoppers should be taken very seriously. Powered by a potent air raid style offense, this team atop the hill also causes plenty of turnovers on defense and has a recent history of playing Big Ten teams closely. Will OSU’s official QB1, Kyle McCord, and the Buckeyes’ offense be able to keep up in a gridiron track meet? Will the Scarlet and Gray secondary step up and earn back their BIA moniker? And will Western Kentucky be Ryan Day and company’s sole focus? The Hangout Boys are cautiously optimistic and eager to see if Ohio State can settle into a rhythm - and win convincingly - before the team’s big trip to South Bend.

]]> 3809 Silver Bullets Podcast: Youngstown State rewind and Western Kentucky preview Well, we did see some improvement from Ohio State’s first game to Saturday’s win over Youngstown State, but it’s fair to say that it wasn’t quite the leap many fans were hoping for in another underwhelming win against what should have been a badly overmatched opponent. The 35-7 final score would have been more palatable against Indiana on the road in the opener than an FCS school at home in the second game of the season. We’re breaking down Saturday’s game, talking about the key plays and players, and checking in to see how close (or not) we were on our score predictions and our picks to click. Following our game discussion, we talked about Mel Tucker’s suspension in East Lansing. The former Ohio State assistant is vehemently denying the allegations but he won’t coach the Spartans again until the investigation is complete and maybe not even then. We looked through the Big Ten’s other results, searching for surprises and didn’t find any. The heavy favorites won big, while Illinois made a valiant comeback attempt at Kansas and Wisconsin was undone by a turnover that didn’t appear to me to be one. Finally, we looked ahead to Saturday’s matchup with Western Kentucky. The Hilltoppers have a potent passing attack that will provide a good test for Jim Knowles’ defense this weekend, while the OSU offense has to find answers for third-and-short situations and the line play must get better on both sides of the ball. We’ll be back next week to take our deep dive into the Western Kentucky game and we’ll be looking ahead to a massive non-conference matchup against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. In fact, we’ll be here with you every week from now until the end of the 2023 Ohio State football season.

The Hilltoppers have a potent passing attack that will provide a good test for Jim Knowles’ defense this weekend, while the OSU offense has to find answers for third-and-short situations and the line play must get better on both sides of the ball.

We’ll be back next week to take our deep dive into the Western Kentucky game and we’ll be looking ahead to a massive non-conference matchup against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.

In fact, we’ll be here with you every week from now until the end of the 2023 Ohio State football season. We’d love to hear from you, so please reach out with your feedback and questions below in the comments section or send us an email.

]]> 4958 Hangout in the Holy Land: The sky is not remotely close to falling, but we at least know where the umbrella is... The latest episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s flagship podcast is here! Join LGHL’s Josh Dooley and Chuck Holmes as they discuss Ohio State football, recruiting, and much, much more! Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of Hangout in the Holy Land, Josh and Chuck go back and forth on a divisive Ohio State victory over FCS Youngstown State. Sure, a win is a win, but there are admittedly some questions and concerns emanating from The Shoe. The Buckeyes defeated the Youngstown State Fighting Tressels Penguins in Week 2, however, OSU’s run game looked shaky, and their defense failed to create pressure — both for a second consecutive week. Is this Ryan Day’s team working out some kinks and/or playing tight? Or is it something a bit more troubling? On a much more positive note, Kyle McCord seems to have taken ownership of the QB position, which could go a long way in solving some of the Buckeyes’ early season issues. The hosts discuss McCord’s Week 2 improvements, while also celebrating the return of Marvin the Martian (Harrison Jr.) and giving kudos to a stingy defense. Overall, the guys are cautiously optimistic and eager to see what Day and company cook up in the next few weeks. Please make sure to like, rate, review, and subscribe to the podcast!

They bring you the biggest stats, storylines, and moments of the game before the players make it back to the locker room. On today's episode, Matt Tamanini and Justin Golba are breaking down No. 5 Ohio State's 35-7 victory over the Youngstown State Penguins from Saturday, Sept. 9, 2023. Despite a seemingly easy win, the pair -- especially Matt -- was frustrated by the decision-making by the coaches and the lack of production by the offensive and defensive lines, especially given the fact that OSU was playing a presumably overmatched FCS opponent. It's time for Ryan Day to stop the Devin Brown experiment and allow Kyle McCord to get all of the first team reps in order to prepare for Notre Dame and Jim Knowles and Larry Johnson need to bury the hatchet on their simmering feud, or the defensive line could spoil a really good defense.

On this episode of Hangout in the Holy Land, Josh and Chuck circle back to some of their Week 1 thoughts, now that they’ve had a few days to sit and reflect. Both agree that while Ohio State looked shaky in Bloomington, it could be much, much worse... Like being a Clemson fan. The Buckeyes take on the Youngstown State Fighting Tressels Penguins in Week 2, and the Hangout Boys are back with a scintillating preview. I mean, what else would you expect for a game of this magnitude?  In all seriousness, these hosts are anticipating a much stronger showing from the Scarlet and Gray this weekend. After a conservative approach to open the season on the road, Josh and Chuck expect to see Ryan Day and company really let loose back in the friendly and comfortable confines of The Shoe. And if they don’t, well then Columbus, we might have a problem. Plus, the guys react to Day’s weekly presser and do their best to make sense of the Buckeyes’ current quarterback situation.

While Day noted that the offense would have to improve for the team to reach its goals, Knowles was overall pleased by his unit's performance, aside from a few third-down plays. Both coaches said that the new clock rules hampered their ability to rotate players in more, including Devin Brown and Xavier Johnson on offense and C.J. Hicks and Ja'Had Carter on defense.

Both coaches said that the new clock rules hampered their ability to rotate players in more, including Devin Brown and Xavier Johnson on offense and C.J. Hicks and Ja'Had Carter on defense.

]]> 3523 Silver Bullets Podcast: Indiana rewind and Youngstown State preview The Buckeyes’ 2023 season is underway. Although it began in underwhelming fashion, it’s the first outing, on the road, with a new quarterback and a mostly new offensive line. It was never going to look crisp right out of the box. Far be it from us to tell you not to panic — you may do so if you wish; that’s your prerogative — but we simply have more things we’ll be keeping an eye on as the season moves forward. We broke down Ohio State’s 20-point win at Bloomington, including the key plays, players, and mistakes, and checked back on our score predictions and picks to click to see how we did. It was the first game for everyone, so we haven’t quite zeroed in on this team yet. Joel Whetzel from The Vindicator and Tribune Chronicle was our guest this week. He popped on with us to give us the scoop on Ohio State’s opponent this Saturday, the Penguins of Youngstown State University. What are the Penguins good and bad at? Who are the players to watch? What style can we expect? These questions get answered expertly by Joel and we appreciate his time. Finally, we looked ahead to Saturday and came up with our score predictions and our picks to click for this Saturday’s matchup. Will the Penguins get as many stops on defense as the Hoosiers did? That’s not what we’re expecting. We have similar ideas to how this game will unfold to what our guest described. We’ll be back next week to dissect Ohio State’s home opener against Youngstown State and look ahead to a matchup with Western Kentucky. In fact, we’ll be here with you every week from now until the end of the 2023 Ohio State football season.

On today's episode of "Land-Grant Uncut," we are bringing you unedited audio from Ohio State football coach Ryan Day from the press conference following the Buckeyes' 23-3 victory over the Indiana Hoosiers on Saturday, Sept. 2. The head coach admitted that the uneven performance by his offense prevented him from getting Devin Brown in the game as much as he had hoped going in. Day thought that the offensive performance was a mixed bag with some highlights, but plenty to work on, including red zone, short yardage, and third downs. On the other side of the ball, Day said that he was "excited about great defense." He complimented the defensive line for disrupting plays in both IU's run and passing game.

Recapping a lackluster Week 1 victory for the Ohio State Buckeyes The latest episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s flagship podcast is here! Join LGHL’s Josh Dooley and Chuck Holmes as they discuss Ohio State football, recruiting, and much, much more! Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of Hangout in the Holy Land, Josh and Chuck recap Week 1 of the college football season, with an obvious focus on Ohio State. The Buckeyes beat the Indiana Hoosiers by a score of 23-3 in Bloomington, but Ryan Day’s team was far from perfect... And that is putting it mildly. It’s not even Labor Day, and the hosts are already a teeny, tiny bit concerned about the Scarlet and Gray. Because Week 1 provided more questions than answers, primarily due to odd coaching decisions, lackluster QB play, and a team that seemed to lack identity. So was this opening week jitters, or is Ohio State in for some serious growing and transition pains? The Hangout boys have obvious concerns, but admit and agree that the sky is not falling. After bemoaning the offensive playcalling and performance, the hosts go on to praise the Buckeyes’ stingy defense and give credit to at least a few players on the other side of the ball. Lastly, the guys hand out weekly awards, which were few and far between. Please make sure to like, rate, review, and subscribe to the podcast! And as always, Go Bucks!

]]> 5404 Instant Recap: How Does Marv Only Have 2 Catches? Defense Shines As Offensive Playcalling Struggles On LGHL Instant Recap Pods, Land-Grant Holy Land writers break down Ohio State games just minutes after the action ends. They bring you the biggest stats, storylines, and moments of the game before the players make it back to the locker room. The college football season is finally here, and that means the Buckeyes are back! And so are the question marks. Ohio State opened its 2023 season with a 23-3 win over the Indiana Hoosiers, and while a win is a win, the confidence levels that the fanbase has in the team took a hit. To open things up, Matt Tamanini and Justin Golba discuss the offense and, specifically, the quarterback battle. Because it does not seem to be a battle. Contrary to what head coach Ryan Day said earlier in the week about Kyle McCord and Devin Brown splitting reps, McCord played 98% of the game. We discuss that and the five combined catches for Marvin Harrison Jr., and Emeka Egbuka. However, not all was bad. The defense stepped up to the plate and looked great, allowing just 153 yards of total offense. We discuss the defense as well as our confidence levels that it will translate to better offenses. At the end, we grade the game.

For Episode 83, the guys welcomed back Ohio State head coach Chris Holtmann to the podcast. He now joins an exclusive group of two-time guests that also includes Joe Gemma, Adam Jardy, Kevin Sweeney, and others. The three of us discuss a wide range of basketball and non-basketball-related topics, including the transfer portal, Big Ten expansion, Taylor Swift, and what his go-to food was last season after any loss. Holtmann described what it’s like navigating the transfer portal from a coach’s point of view — from the moment a player enters his name until the point where you get a commitment. How do you get that player’s contact information? Do you also contact their former coach? How quickly does the process move? It’s a perspective you won’t hear anywhere other than this show. We also discussed the Big Ten with Holtmann — the 18-team version. Listen on to hear his thoughts on how it will impact all of the non-football athletes in the conference, and what concerns he has for student-athletes once the league expands.

]]> 3816 Hangout in the Holy Land: Happy Week 1 to those who celebrate! Breaking down the Buckeyes as Ohio State prepares to kick off their season against a Big Ten foe. The latest episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s flagship podcast is here! Join LGHL’s Josh Dooley and Chuck Holmes as they discuss Ohio State football, recruiting, and much, much more! Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of Hangout in the Holy Land, Josh and Chuck celebrate the holiday known as Week 1 of the college football season. Forget all that Week 0 nonsense, because now it’s for real! Because Ohio State kicks off, of course. A new CFB season means new faces, new questions, and new reasons for optimism... Or pessimism and concern. But the hosts are not too worried about OSU’s new starting quarterback. Instead, they want to know if Jim Knowles’ defense will turn up the heat and whether Justin Frye’s revamped offensive line can protect C.J. Stroud’s replacement. Although there are plenty of unknowns in and around Columbus, hopes and expectations are as high as they’ve ever been. Up first for the Buckeyes are the Indiana Hoosiers, so Josh and Chuck preview a Tom Allen-led IU squad that has struggled in recent seasons. Can the boys in Bloomington recapture their pandemic magic? Or will Allen’s seat continue to heat up? The Hangouts boys lean toward the latter...

]]> 3878 Silver Bullets Podcast: Indiana preview and preseason camp news It’s game week at last and we’re ready to go after seeing some Week 0 games this past Saturday. The Buckeyes are going through their final preparations for the upcoming season and it starts with a Big Ten East showdown in Bloomington this Saturday. We begin the show with some news, including the naming of Ted Carter as the next president of The Ohio State University. That was the first domino that needed to fall in order to get a new athletic director hired to replace Gene Smith in the position next year. Ohio State also has a new stadium voice. We touched on that briefly before getting into the latest group of official Buckeyes who saw their black stripes removed from their helmets within the last week. These are guys who are showing that they came to Columbus to put in the work and we love to see it. Colin Lavery from Crimson Quarry then jumps on with us to tell us about the 2023 Indiana Hoosiers, and to say that he’s not feeling optimistic about his team’s upcoming season might be an understatement. Tom Allen refuses to name his starting quarterback and there are 40 new faces on the Indiana roster, which could make for a bumpy 2023 season for fans of the Hoosiers. Finally, we dive into our picks to click for Saturday and make our first score predictions of the new college football season. Both of us feel we’re erring on the conservative side as the Buckeyes go on the road with a new signal caller. The game might start a little sluggishly for Ohio State, but we expect the Bucks to get stronger as the game goes on. We’ll be here with you every week from now until the end of the 2023 Ohio State football season.

Hartline discusses everything from his rooms preparation and his young receivers to the quarterback competition and his play-calling duties. Then, Harrison talks about playing some snaps in the slot and how impressed he is with true freshman Carnell Tate. Finally, Fleming discusses what it is like for him to finally be healthy.

]]> 2652 I-80 Football Show: USC's defense is still a liability and Penn State is overhyped Welcome to a new episode of Fans First Football Network’s I-80 Football Show. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball from New Jersey to California. With USC and UCLA joining the conference in 2024 we’ll integrate them in the show getting a head start on the 16-team conference. After every week of action, we will catch you up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players you should be paying attention to next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. College Football is officially back! Dante and Jordan prepare for week 0 action talking about what they’re most excited about with football season back! Dante is looking forward to watching all the new quarterbacks across the sport. Jordan can’t wait to see how the PAC 12s final season plays out.  USC and star quarterback Caleb Williams are hoping to win the PAC 12 in its final season and make the playoffs but they may be held back by a porous Alex Grinch defense… again. The guys question if Caleb Williams will be the second person to win two Heisman trophies but Jordan thinks the Heisman Trust is actively rooting against another two-time Heisman winner.  Penn State is one of the most hyped programs in the country with Drew Allar at the helm. Despite being a first-time college starter the Drew Allar expectations are high. Coupled with a dynamic running back duo and multiple freak athletes on defense many believe that this is the year that Penn State breaks through winning the Big Ten and making the playoffs. The guys may not be buying the hype.  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sign up with MyBookie using our link to receive your welcome bonus: https://mybookie.website/Grant23 Follow the show on YouTube: @JordanW330  Follow the podcast on Instagram: @I80FootballShow  Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 and Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

Join LGHL’s Josh Dooley and Chuck Holmes as they discuss Ohio State football, recruiting, and much, much more! Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of Hangout in the Holy Land, Josh and Chuck discuss Larry Johnson and defensive line recruiting, before pivoting to the Buckeyes’ ongoing and potentially never-ending quarterback battle. Will OSU fans see a repeat of 2015? Or is this just Ryan Day slow-playing his hand? Then, the hosts give props to a trio of team captains, as well as several newly anointed - and ‘official’ - members of the Buckeye brotherhood. This is of particular interest to Chuck, as in just a few more episodes, he will also have a stripe removed, making him an official member of the LGHL brother and sisterhood... As long as he is not found to have put money on Indiana or Youngstown State to cover. And finally, a look at Big Ten contenders. These (football) teams are predicted and projected to finish near the top of the B1G standings in 2023, but which ones have a legitimate shot to leave Indy with conference bragging rights?

]]> 4525 I-80 Football Show: 2023 Season Preview - The PAC-12 Wing Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-80 Football Show. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball from New Jersey to California. With USC and UCLA joining the conference in 2024 we’ll integrate them in the show getting a head start on the 16-team conference. After every week of action, we will catch you up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players you should be paying attention to next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. In this episode, Jordan has something to get off his chest. He questions why the national media continues to be inconsistent in their coverage. The concerns they have for Ohio State, Georgia, and Alabama are not echoed with Penn State while all four teams are replacing multi-year starters. The national media does not know ball.  Continuing their 2023 season preview the guys get into Oregon and Washington, the newest additions to the Big Ten conference after agreeing to join the conference in 2024 along with UCLA and USC. Oregon is coming off of a solid first year with first-time head coach Dan Lanning who got the best out of transfer quarterback Bo Nix. After winning 9 games in 2023 the Ducks hope to contend for the final PAC-12 title and a playoff berth but Jordan thinks they may fall behind some of the other teams. Can Dan Lanning continue to get the best out of Bo Nix and win the conference before joining the Big Ten? Washington is another program that was successful under a first-year head coach. Kalen Deboer reunited with former Indiana quarterback Michael Penix Jr. and ran the nation second best offense overall and best passing offense. Their defense, especially their secondary, took a step back from their standard but there is reason to believe they will be a better defense in 2023. Was Michael Penix’s resurgence real? If so expect Penix Jr. to be a Heisman finalist and maybe even take home the award. Washington is one of two PAC-12 teams to ever make the four-team playoff and they’ll be in the mix to be the final team to make it from the PAC-12.  In their weekly pitstop, Jordan and Dante have a message on mental health! A lot of people are having a rough year, so make sure to cherish your family and friends. It’s okay to pursue therapy and take care of your mental health!  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sign up with MyBookie using our link to receive your welcome bonus: https://mybookie.website/Grant23 Follow the show on YouTube:  @JordanW330 and @LandGrantPods Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 and Dante: @DanteM10216 Subscribe: RSS | Apple | Spotify | Stitcher | Google Podcasts | iHeart Radio Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 5924 Silver Bullets Podcast: Camp news and B1G East predictions There’s always so much news to get to as the season’s about to start. With so much to discuss, we started this week’s show with the bad news first. Two Buckeyes will not see the field in 2023 — tight end Bennett Christian, because of testing positive for a banned substance, and linebacker Kourt Williams II, with torn ACL. We wish both players the best of luck in getting back on the field. In better news, Ohio State named its 2023 captains, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the choices. We discussed why Cade Stover, Tommy Eichenberg, and Xavier Johnson were the perfect choices and why it’s good to put the rotating captain nonsense in the rearview mirror. Johnson also earned the right to wear the Block O jersey this upcoming season, and that was also the perfect choice. The only thing that might be more appropriate is if they let him wear an X on his jersey. There was a slew of new black stripe removals, including several freshman receivers. Brian Hartline just keeps getting standout talent. As an aside, we discuss OSU commit Air Noland’s first game of the season in a big early-season matchup and Michael gives an unscientific scouting report. Finally, we made our predictions for how the Big Ten East will shake out by the end of the 2023 season. While we were in lockstep a week ago with our B1G West picks, there were multiple variations this week that should make things interesting as we watch how the season unfolds. Ohio State fans will be rooting for Chip to be more correct than Michael on this one. We’ll be here with you every week from now until the end of the 2023 Ohio State football season.

]]> 4330 Uncut: Still No Starting Quarterback, but We've Got Offensive Tackles and Sonny Styles Throughout the year, the Land-Grant Podcast Network will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. On today's episode of "Land-Grant Uncut," we are bringing you unedited audio from Ohio State football coach Ryan Day and defensive coordinator Jim Knowle's Monday, Aug. 21 press conference. Day opens the presser admitting that he hasn't yet determined who will start for the team at quarterback. However, rather than viewing that as a negative, he says it is a byproduct of both guys playing well enough to earn the spot. However, things appear to be solidifying on the offensive line as Day said that the likely starting tackles will be Josh Simmons on the left and Josh Fryar on the right with Carson Hinzman at center. Knowles also confirmed that Sonny Styles will start at safety and that the young defensive lineman will have major roles.

However, rather than viewing that as a negative, he says it is a byproduct of both guys playing well enough to earn the spot. However, things appear to be solidifying on the offensive line as Day said that the likely starting tackles will be Josh Simmons on the left and Josh Fryar on the right with Carson Hinzman at center. Knowles also confirmed that Sonny Styles will start at safety and that the young defensive lineman will have major roles.

]]> 2471 I-80 Football Show: 2023 Season Preview, New Year’s Six Tier, Part Two Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-80 Football Show. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball from New Jersey to California. With USC and UCLA joining the conference in 2024 we’ll integrate them in the show getting a head start on the 16-team conference. After every week of action, we will catch you up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players you should be paying attention to next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. Football season is right around the corner, it’s time to do some TLC with your significant other before you spend every weekend glued to the couch watching football! Don’t forget to take your significant other on dates, you have Wednesday and Friday nights. Plus the guys talk fall events and why you should have your wedding in April.  Wisconsin fired Paul Chryst and enters 2023 with Luke Fickell at the helm. Fickell, one of the most successful coaches at the group of five level, brings with him Mike Tressel as defensive coordinator and hired Phil Longo from North Carolina to be his offensive coordinator. Despite the changes Dante and Jordan expect Wisconsin to be good instantly, they have one of the more talented rosters in the West division and an easy schedule. Bolstered by Braelon Allen and SMU transfer Tanner Mordecai the Badgers could finally have an explosive offense to go with their stout defense. Luke Fickell could take this team to the Big Ten championship in his first year.  Speaking of Wisconsin, former Wisconsin coach Bret Bielema is entering his third season at Illinois and has a deep team despite losing some of their star players. Illinois must replace running back Chase Brown and first-round pick Devon Witherspoon but they should still have one of the best defenses in the nation with Jer’Zhan Newton and Keith Randolph Jr. on the defensive line. Despite losing their two best players they still have good running backs, wide receiver Isaiah Williams and brought in Luke Altmyer to lead the offense. They’ll need Luke to be a better quarterback than what they’ve had previously but with their defense, they should once again compete for the West division title.  In their pitstops, Jordan hates what going on with the Yankees and believes it’s time to fire Brian Cashman and Aaron Boone. Dante attended his first Major League Baseball game and watched the Guardians get thumped by the Cincinnati Reds.  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sign up with MyBookie using our link to receive your welcome bonus: https://mybookie.website/Grant23 Follow the show on YouTube: @JordanW330 and @LandGrantPods Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 and Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

With USC and UCLA joining the conference in 2024 we’ll integrate them in the show getting a head start on the 16-team conference. After every week of action, we will catch you up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players you should be paying attention to next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. Jim Harbaugh will be on the sideline this season instead of serving a four-game suspension as the NCAA committee denied his agreement with the infractions committee. The NCAA is still bad at managing infractions and will allow this to carry over way longer than it should. If they issue a penalty for 2024 will Jim Harbaugh be at Michigan to serve the suspension or will he pull a Pete Carroll and avoid the sanctions by heading to the NFL? UCLA enters 2023 coming off its best season in a long time winning nine games while being two points away from a ten-win season. Head Coach Chip Kelly will be tasked with replacing long-time quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson and stud running back Zach Charbonnet but he may already have the talent to do it. He secured a major commitment with five-star quarterback Dante Moore and he took Carson Steele in the transfer portal. Steele had 1500+ yards and 14 touchdowns for Ball State late season. The Bruins will need to fix their defensive issues but they have a chance to win nine or ten games before they enter the Big Ten in 2024.  Iowa continues to win games despite having a limited offense but has taken steps to fix its offense via the transfer portal. Ferentz brought in quarterback Cade McNamara from Michigan as well as tight end Erick All, and wide receiver Kaleb Burton from Michigan and Ohio State respectively. They return their entire offensive line as well as running back Kalen Johnson and tight end Luke Lachey. There will be pressure to perform as offensive coordinator Brian Ferentz must score 325 points this season to keep his job. On defense, they should be solid but could take a step back after losing first-round picks Jack Campbell and Lukas Van Ness as well as Riley Moss, and Kevon Merriweather.  In their pit stops Jordan discusses Anthony Richardson being named the starting quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts. After the first preseason game, Dante is cautiously optimistic about the Steelers' offense with Kenny Pickett and George Pickens.  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Follow the show on YouTube:  @JordanW330 and @LandGrantPods Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 and Dante: @DanteM10216 Subscribe: RSS | Apple | Spotify | Stitcher | Google Podcasts | iHeart Radio Learn more about your ad choices.

Join LGHL’s Josh Dooley and Chuck Holmes as they discuss Ohio Statefootball, recruiting, and much, much more! Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of Hangout in the Holy Land, Josh and Chuck give Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith credit for a job well done. They discuss his impact not only in Columbus, but also in helping to shape the Big Ten as we know (or will come to know) it. Smith’s professional presence will eventually be missed, but not before June of 2024. Then, like Canteen Boy, the Hangout Boys talk camping... As in fall camp/practice(s) for the OSU football team. What are fans learning (and not learning) about this year’s version of the Buckeyes? Does Ryan Day already have a plan in place, or are multiple position battles truly TBD? Can Jim Knowles and Co. put TTUN and UGA in their rearview? These questions and more are surely on the minds of many. And finally, a look at Big Ten pretenders. These (football) teams are predicted and projected to finish in the middle of the pack in 2023, but could any of them crash the party at or near the top?

]]> 4818 Silver Bullets Podcast: Black stripes, watch lists, commitments, B1G West predictions We are back to our weekly season schedule! There’s a ton of news and we can’t possibly get to everything, but we did get to a lot of things. Even though we’re not big recruiting news guys, we did get to talk a little bit about two new Ohio State recruits, and maybe it says a lot about us that we spent more time discussing the new preferred walk on long snapper than the four-star wide receiver. Preseason is the time for watch lists and at Ohio State, there are usually going to be players on the watch list for every major award. We go through the Walter Camp, Butkus Award, Thorpe Award, and Doak Walker Award watch lists and discuss the Buckeyes from whom folks will be expecting big things in 2023. After that, we dove into the most recent Buckeyes to get their black stripes removed from their helmets. These weren’t exactly surprises but they were interesting. We also talked about Omari Abor’s unfortunate injury that will once again sideline him “for at least two months.” But wait, there’s more! Gene Smith is calling it a career as Ohio State’s athletic director next year. We talked a little about the job he’s done and who might be the next AD (and why it will take annoyingly longer to get a new one without a new university president). We couldn’t possibly not talk about the Big Ten’s expansion, with Oregon and Washington joining the party.

We are back to our weekly season schedule! There’s a ton of news and we can’t possibly get to everything, but we did get to a lot of things. Even though we’re not big recruiting news guys, we did get to talk a little bit about two new Ohio State recruits, and maybe it says a lot about us that we spent more time discussing the new preferred walk on long snapper than the four-star wide receiver. Preseason is the time for watch lists and at Ohio State, there are usually going to be players on the watch list for every major award. We go through the Walter Camp, Butkus Award, Thorpe Award, and Doak Walker Award watch lists and discuss the Buckeyes from whom folks will be expecting big things in 2023. After that, we dove into the most recent Buckeyes to get their black stripes removed from their helmets. These weren’t exactly surprises but they were interesting. We also talked about Omari Abor’s unfortunate injury that will once again sideline him “for at least two months.” But wait, there’s more! Gene Smith is calling it a career as Ohio State’s athletic director next year. We talked a little about the job he’s done and who might be the next AD (and why it will take annoyingly longer to get a new one without a new university president). We couldn’t possibly not talk about the Big Ten’s expansion, with Oregon and Washington joining the party. We also weighed in on why we think the Pac 12 disintegrated and which other schools we could see in the B1G in the coming years.

]]> 4306 Uncut: Ryan Day Announces Season-Long Suspension, but Isn't Ready to Name a Starting Quarterback Just Yet Throughout the year, the Land-Grant Podcast Network will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. On today's episode of "Land-Grant Uncut," we are bringing you unedited audio from Ohio State football coach Ryan Day's Monday, Aug. 14 press conference. He opens his statement by announcing that tight end Bennett Christian has been suspended for the entire 2023 season after testing positive for a banned substance. He will continue to practice with the team, but will be ineligible to play. While the head coach did indicate that he would like to have a starting quarterback named this week, he is not yet ready to make that decision. However, it does appear that Jimmy Simmons is close to being named the starter at left tackle with Josh Fryar on the right side. Day discusses that and more in the presser.

]]> 2814 I-80 Football Show: 2023 Season Preview - Middling Tier Part Two Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-80 Football Show. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball from New Jersey to California. With USC and UCLA joining the conference in 2024 we’ll integrate them in the show getting a head start on the 16-team conference. After every week of action, we will catch you up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players you should be paying attention to next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. In this episode, the guys finish up their realignment talk, hopefully, as we’re all ready to move on to the season and talk ball. Arizona, Arizona State, and Utah are in the Big 12, Arizona and ASU might be a wash but the Big 12 may have made a mistake letting Utah in, Jordan expects them to compete for the title immediately. There was a lot of parity in the Big 12 before adding Utah but if they continue trending upward they have a chance to dominate their new conference. As for the four schools left out, Cal and Stanford are hoping for a lifeline from the ACC which is the only power five conferences not to make any moves in the last two years. The ACC is considering adding Cal, Stanford, and SMU but will likely need to add a fourth team if this is the case. Appalachian State anyone?  Finishing out the Middling Tier, Dante and Jordan break down the 2023 season outlook for Maryland and Purdue. Purdue enters 2023 coming off the best season in program history in which they broke out and won the West Division. Unfortunately, after their season, they lost Head Coach Jeff Brohm who went back home to coach at Louisville. They also lost their starting quarterback Aidan O’Connell and star wide receiver Charlie Jones to the NFL draft. First-time head coach Ryan Walters will be tasked with continuing the success Jeff Brohm had which will be a tall task. Walters hired Graham Harrell, an air raid disciple as his offensive coordinator which is a sign they will continue to sling the ball all over the field but with a much better defense as Walters is one of the best young defensive minds in the country. Maryland enters 2023 coming off their best year under Mike Locksley and the last year with Taulia Tagovailoa under center. Tagovailoa took a step back statistically last year, he was still arguably the second-best quarterback in the conference, but Maryland still won eight games. They lost a lot of good players including first-round corner Deante Banks but they should return an above-average defense. If Taulia can continue to throw for around 3,000 yards and 25 touchdowns, with the emergence of sophomore running back Roman Hemby, Maryland should win a bunch of games again. They’re still far away from challenging Michigan and Ohio State but everyone else should be a winnable game for the Terrapins.  In their pitstops, Jordan talks about the difference between the Little League Baseball and Softball World Series and Dante thinks the NBA is getting less competitive because non-star players are making too much money.  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Follow the show on YouTube: @JordanW330 and @LandGrantPods Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 and Dante: @DanteM10216 Subscribe: RSS | Apple | Spotify | Stitcher | Google Podcasts | iHeart Radio Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 2192 I-80 Football Show: 2023 Season Preview - The Middling Tier Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-80 Football Show. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball from New Jersey to California. With USC and UCLA joining the conference in 2024 we’ll integrate them in the show getting a head start on the 16-team conference. After every week of action, we will catch you up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players you should be paying attention to next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. The PAC 12 has effectively been ended and the Big Ten and Big 12 are the beneficiaries, or the culprits depending on who you ask. Dante and Jordan discuss the impact of Oregon and Washington joining the Big Ten both in football and non-revenue generating sports. Is it naive to think the Big Ten will find a way to fix this scheduling issue as best as possible or will this only hurt non football sports? Plus, how did this happen and how much blame should the PAC 12 hold?  In this episode we discuss Michigan State and Minnesota, two very similar teams that are likely to end up with similar records but for very different reasons. Michigan State is looking to bounce back from a disappointing 5-7 campaign in 2022 but it’s hard to see a positive future with all they’ve lost. They may have their quarterback of the future with Noah Kim or Katin Houser but he’ll have no one to throw to with Jayden Reed in the NFL and Keon Coleman at Florida State. The defense, albeit slightly better in 2022 still hasn't improved their secondary and will rely heavily on continued production from linebackers Cal Holiday and Jacoby Windmon. Can Mel Tucker hit transfer portal gold or finally develop his guys?  Minnesota should be expected to have a step-back year but it is just the ebbs of flows of college football. Despite not being high on them the guys fully expect them to bounce back in future seasons. The same cannot be said about Michigan State. Minnesota is going to have a hard time replacing quarterback Tanner Morgan, Center John Michael-Schmitz, and All-American running back Mo Ibrahim. They are also losing two other starters on their offensive line and will rely heavily on their defense to keep them in games. They should still be a good team but their schedule does them no favors with games against North Carolina, Ohio State, and Michigan.  Lastly, the US Women's National Team was bounced from the World Cup in the round of 16 Sunday morning but Jordan doesn’t think this is a negative. Sure, the coach needs to be fired but the young talent on the team is awesome and will be in their prime in 2027. Enjoy the break because we may be dominant again here soon.  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Follow the show on YouTube: @JordanW330 and @LandGrantPods Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 and Dante: @DanteM10216 Subscribe: RSS | Apple | Spotify | Stitcher | Google Podcasts | iHeart Radio Learn more about your ad choices.

On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball from New Jersey to California. With USC and UCLA joining the conference in 2024 we’ll integrate them in the show getting a head start on the 16-team conference.

My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. The PAC 12 has effectively been ended and the Big Ten and Big 12 are the beneficiaries, or the culprits depending on who you ask. Dante and Jordan discuss the impact of Oregon and Washington joining the Big Ten both in football and non-revenue generating sports. Is it naive to think the Big Ten will find a way to fix this scheduling issue as best as possible or will this only hurt non football sports?

On today's episode of "Land-Grant Uncut," we are bringing you unedited audio from Ohio State football's final press conference before the start of preseason camp earlier this week. On Wednesday, Aug. 2, three of Ohio State's quarterbacks took to the podium to discuss the competition to name a starter, how they all differ from each other, and what it is like in the QB room. Third-year Buckeye Kyle McCord and second-year QB Devin Brown are (almost certainly) the two players in contention to become OSU's starter, with Gebbia serving as a mentor having transferred from Oregon State, at least in part, in order to further his goals of becoming a football coach.

]]> 3232 I-80 Football Show: 2023 Season Preview - Hot Seat Tier, Part Two Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-80 Football Show. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball from New Jersey to California. With USC and UCLA joining the conference in 2024 we’ll integrate them in the show getting a head start on the 16-team conference. After every week of action, we will catch you up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players you should be paying attention to next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. In the first of four episodes previewing all 16 teams in the Big Ten, Dante, and Jordan start with the hot seat tier. The hot seat tier consists of four teams whose coaches are on the hot seat entering the season, will be on the hot seat at the end, or are first-year coaches whose programs will be pretty bad. There isn’t much hope left for these programs besides hoping the grass is greener on the other side of the coaching carousel.  In Part Two the guys finish up the hot seat tier discussing what would a successful season look like for Nebraska and how long it will take for him to turn Nebraska around like he did Baylor and Temple. Jordan thinks the turnaround will be faster but the ceiling is lower due to the Big Ten being a tougher conference.  The guys also talk about realignment as things have changed since they last recorded. Colorado is officially heading to the Big 12, and the Pac 12 is close to collapsing. It’s rumored that Arizona could be following Colorado and without a signed grant of rights there is always the chance that Arizona State, Utah, Oregon, or Washington get antsy and make the move as well. It’s time for the Pac 12 to put up or shut up and risk folding as a conference.  Follow the show on YouTube: Jordan: @JordanW330 Land Grant Podcast Network: @LandGrantPods Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 Dante: @DanteM10216 Subscribe: RSS | Apple | Spotify | Stitcher | Google Podcasts | iHeart Radio Learn more about your ad choices.

They also discuss his colorful commitment ceremony, potential momentum building on the defensive side of the ball for the Buckeyes, and who else could be joining the class before the end of summer.

They close the episode off by getting hyped for Chris Henry Jr. to become a Buckeye, even though he won't officially put on an Ohio State jersey for three years.

]]> 2583 I-80 Football Show: 2023 Season Preview - Hot Seat Tier, Part One Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-80 Football Show. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball from New Jersey to California. With USC and UCLA joining the conference in 2024 we’ll integrate them in the show getting a head start on the 16-team conference. After every week of action, we will catch you up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players you should be paying attention to next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. In the first of four episodes previewing all 16 teams in the Big Ten, Dante, and Jordan start with the hot seat tier. The hot seat tier consists of four teams whose coaches are on the hot seat entering the season, will be on the hot seat at the end, or are first-year coaches whose programs will be pretty bad. There isn’t much hope left for these programs besides hoping the grass is greener on the other side of the coaching carousel.  The guys agree that Northwestern, Indiana, and Rutgers should be in this tier but there is some disagreement on who the fourth team is with Jordan Michigan State, and Dante including Nebraska. Northwestern is a given and would have been in this tier regardless of the hazing scandal but without Pat Fitzgerald, they should be even worse. Indiana has been awful the past few seasons and this year shouldn't be much better. They may have a better team after changing coordinators and getting some power five transfers but their schedule is tough and should result in another year in the bottom of the Big Ten.  While Rutgers is in this tier, Jordan believes this could be their last year hereafter Schiano hired a great defensive coordinator last year and hired Kirk Ciarrocca from Minnesota. Dante is on the fence and thinks it may be time to move on. Nebraska is under first-year head coach Matt Rhule and Michigan State is entering year two of Mel Tucker's new 10-year contract. Nebraska being in this tier makes sense for year one but if this is another bad year for Michigan State they may pull out the calculator to see how soon they can get out of their albatross of a contract they gave Mel Tucker after winning 11 games in 2021.

]]> 4643 Silver Bullets Podcast: A Buckeye tragedy, the gray alternate uniforms, and the Northwestern scandal We are back and there’s plenty of off-season news to discuss. We sadly open with some remarks about the loss of Carnell Tate’s mother and we send our condolences to all of her friends and family. In lighter news, we discuss Ohio State’s all-gray alternate uniforms that are planned for this year’s Michigan State matchup. We are traditionalists but we can still appreciate a good-looking alternate whenever those appear. Our consensus is that we like the gray ones but we also have thoughts on Ohio State’s traditional uniforms that would make them better (again). We looked ahead to Big Ten Media Days and discussed the things we’re eager to see when that event gets underway this week. What will Ryan Day have to say? Will things finally calm down for Northwestern? What will the new coaches have to say? Linebacker recruit Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa committed to Notre Dame over OSU. Is Ohio State doing enough on the defensive side of the ball when it comes to recruiting? Is there a defensive Brian Hartline out there somewhere? Finally, we discussed the Northwestern hazing scandal, how it has already affected the Wildcats, and what might happen in the future. We already weren’t very high on Northwestern’s chances in 2023, but will the Cats have a fighting chance (or any fight at all) without Fitz? This situation will bear watching. We’ll be back next month, or possibly sooner if news warrants, as we remain in our offseason broadcast schedule. We’ll return to our weekly format in August as we ramp up for the 2023 Ohio State football season.

On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball from New Jersey to California. With USC and UCLA joining the conference in 2024 we’ll integrate them in the show getting a head start on the 16-team conference. After every week of action, we will catch you up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players you should be paying attention to next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. In this episode of the new and improved I-80 Football Show, the guys open the show with updates on the situation at Northwestern. Since we last talked more former players have spoken out about the hazing and racism they’ve faced within the Northwestern football program and the athletic department. Northwestern now faces a lawsuit from former head coach Pat Fitzgerald who is trying to get the remainder of his salary and three different lawsuits from various players across multiple sports looking for damages due to the trauma they faced as an athlete in the Northwestern athletic department.  Big Ten Media days start this Wednesday, July 26th signifying the semi-official end of the off-season. Starting next week we’ll begin our four-week season preview breaking down the sixteen teams into four tiers but before that, we wanted to give five predictions for the season and predict the end of the season award winners. Dante and Jordan agree that Ohio State sweeps the Player of the Year awards with wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. winning Offensive Player of the Year and linebacker Tommy Eichenberg winning Defensive Player of the Year.  Despite all the hype surrounding Penn State, Jordan does not believe this is the year they beat Ohio State and Michigan to win the Big Ten. Dante on the other hand thinks that despite losing twins Chase and Sydney Brown as well as top-ten pick Devon Witherspoon, Illinois will once again be one of the best programs in the West division during its final season.  Listen to the podcast to hear the rest of our predictions and feel free to send us yours!  Learn more about your ad choices.

To get the show started, we discuss the news updates in the Northwestern program. This conversation discusses the importance of why this is still in the news and why the importance of the litigation in these institutional scenarios lead to much deeper looks into the problem. After that, we turn our attention to the program you came here to listen about in the Ohio State Buckeyes. We discuss the new fan experience the Buckeyes are providing with selling seats to watch practice for $30. There were only 500 tickets available for each of the first two practices of camp, and how this is an experience you should not pass up if you have the opportunity. We then talk Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Marvin Harrison Jr and make our recruiting prediction for a Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa as he is set to make his decision this weekend. In the next part of the show, we do something we all need, review all the new faces that have entered and will be entering the program. We break down the transfer players we are most excited about, the first year players coming into the Summer that could be difference makers. To close out the show, the first of our conference previews with the Pac-12. In this we talk the biggest storylines, contenders, surprise teams, and our players to watch.

Join LGHL’s Josh Dooley and Chuck Holmes as they cover Ohio State football, basketball, recruiting, and much, much more! Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of Hangout in the Holy Land, Josh and Chuck circle back to Pat Fitzgerald and Northwestern, after news of his firing broke during their last episode.

And finally, it would not be a summer episode without at least some theme-week-related conversation. LGHL’s theme this week is That Team up North, which should be pretty self-explanatory. Fueled by bitterness and animosity toward a heated rival, the guys reminisce about their most memorable OSU-TTUN battles. Plus, a few questions sent in by you, the listener(s).

Check back throughout the season for more interviews and coverage of the historic Big Ten women’s basketball program. Next on Since 1899; An OSU WBB podcast, Ohio State women's basketball forward Eboni Walker joins to talk about a unique experience she had this offseason: Jumping out of an airplane. In the interview, Walker talks about how of all people told about the jump, the person least surprised was her own mother. Also, the mixed reactions from Buckeyes coaches, teammates and the surprise response from head coach Kevin McGuff. The Buckeye who played two seasons with Arizona State, one with Syracuse and went through injuries, team scandal and three coaches on two teams, had a potentially stressful final semester of undergraduate studies. Fortunately, a mindset that Walker's had since she was a kid is stronger now than ever. Walker goes into detail about how it came to skydiving and going through step by step what the forward experienced jumping out of a plan from 13,000 feet in the air. Also, the Las Vegas, Nevada high school star shares the excitement of Ohio State's first game of the season. That's when the scarlet and gray travel to Las Vegas to play future Big Ten opponent USC at T-Mobile Arena. Walker talks about how its not just her that's having a homecoming but members of USC, how LeBron James factors in and how Walker envisions herself getting a technical against the Trojans. All that and more in an amazing interview with one of the Buckeyes who was important in the run to the 2022-23 Elite Eight.

]]> 2207 Buck Off Podcast: Ohio State’s July recruiting, Northwestern scandal, and ‘contenders or pretenders’ https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I’m joined by Jordan Williams to discuss the unfortunate scandal that embroiled the college football world this past week. To get the show started, we discuss the turn of the calendar to July and what that means for the future show content moving forward. NFL players are reporting next week, so now it is getting down to the business side of the offseason before Ohio State plays football again. After that, we turn our attention to a tough conversation about the institutional failures surrounding Northwestern’s football team and athletic department. In this talk, we get into how Northwestern’s leadership failed and the culture of hazing was built over a long period time. This was not a recent story, and highlights the greater issues of power dynamics as well as institutional failures in college sports. On the other side of the break we switch our focus to a lighter set of conversations with Ohio State football recruiting. We talk about the recent run of recruiting “losses” the Buckeyes have had, and why some of these recent losses could actually mean a lot of wins are coming. We also turn our attention to two of the hardest recruitments to read in some time. The last part of our show focuses on game born out of annoyance, “Contenders or Pretenders.” A straight forward game where we discuss the teams being most talked about as potential national title contenders. If a team can win the national championship they are a contender, if not they are pretenders. After that, we close out the show with the saddest media days of all time and if Jordan would sky dive like Eboni Walker did.

On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will catch you up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players you should be paying attention to next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. Northwestern Football Head Coach Pat Fitzgerald has been fired after an investigation into hazing allegations levied against the program by former players. Initially, Pat Fitzgerald was suspended without pay for two weeks after an independent investigation found significant evidence of hazing.  After an article by the Daily Northwestern detailing the hazing allegations received national attention, Northwestern's President Michael Schill, sent an email saying he may have erred in his judgment suspending Fitzgerald for only two weeks and would reconsider the suspension. In a statement released by Michael Schill said “As the head coach of one of our athletics programs, Coach Fitzgerald is not only responsible for what happens within the program but also must take great care to uphold our institutional commitment to the student experience and our priority to ensure all students — undergraduate and graduate — can thrive during their time at Northwestern.”  While the hazing allegations were bad enough, The Daily Northwestern released another article detailing three former players' accounts of racial discrimination and hazing they faced in the late 2000s. Following the allegations of hazing, sexual assault, and racial discrimination, Fitzgerald was fired late Monday afternoon.

]]> 4469 Buck Off Podcast: Defensive Line Recruiting, Ryan Day is not getting fired any time soon, and more https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I’m joined by Jordan Williams to discuss all the news surrounding Ohio State’s recent hot streak in recruiting on the defensive side of the ball. To get the show started, we discuss the realistic possibilities of the defensive line recruiting class after the huge recruiting win for Justin Scott and missing out on Marquise Lightfoot. This conversation turns to predictions on the defensive line, and then we turn the conversation to how this coaching staff is rolling as a cohesive unit in year two. We also talk about Miles Lockhart and K.J. Bolden. After that, we turn our attention to a conversation and statement one host is growing exhausted of hearing. “If Michigan beats Ohio State again, Ryan Day should be fired,” they shout. Our impassioned host gives his list of reasons on why that will never happen, and for the impatient Ohio State fans, it won’t happen for a while. We turn our attention to our Buckeye heroes and why the list is so long. This takes down a trip on memory lane thinking about when we were both becoming Ohio State fans in our youth, and how each generation has their heroes. We also try to define who the best embodiment of being a Buckeye is. After that, we close out the show with the Mountain West’s high school relationship with San Diego State.

We also talk about Miles Lockhart and K.J. Bolden.

After that, we turn our attention to a conversation and statement one host is growing exhausted of hearing. “If Michigan beats Ohio State again, Ryan Day should be fired,” they shout. Our impassioned host gives his list of reasons on why that will never happen, and for the impatient Ohio State fans, it won’t happen for a while.

We turn our attention to our Buckeye heroes and why the list is so long. This takes down a trip on memory lane thinking about when we were both becoming Ohio State fans in our youth, and how each generation has their heroes. We also try to define who the best embodiment of being a Buckeye is.

After that, we close out the show with the Mountain West’s high school relationship with San Diego State.

The guys welcome a return guest to the podcast this week — Sports Illustrated’s Kevin Sweeney. Connor, Justin, and Kevin begin by breaking down the two favorites to win the Big Ten this season, Michigan State and Purdue. Could the Boilermakers be even better next season if there’s even a little bit of improvement from Braden Smith and Fletcher Loyer? Or could the Spartans overtake them if one particular junior guard — who Justin thinks the world of — takes the massive step forward some people think he will? They also discuss the addition of UCLA and USC to the Big Ten, and the logistical nightmares it could bring. No, Northwestern won’t be playing in Los Angeles on a Thursday night and then have a home noon game on Saturday. But still, the travel impacts on the student-athletes could be a bit harsh initially. Kevin also talks about the Buckeyes for a bit, including the bare minimum he thinks needs to be done this season for Chris Holtmann to return as head coach for the 2024-2025 season.

]]> 4581 Silver Bullets Podcast: 2023 Ohio State schedule, future B1G scheduling, and the Glenville Pipeline We’re back with our June off-season episode and we’ve got future Ohio State schedules on our minds. We start off by discussing the 2023 schedule, including all announced start times so far and the known TV schedule. Will the atmosphere at Notre Dame be too much for a first-year Ohio State starter just a couple of games into their first season in command of the offense? I brought up the fact that the Buckeyes’ home slate is a bit underwhelming this season, as there’s not a lot of big matchups outside of Penn State. Most of the Ohio State’s biggest games will take place outside of Columbus this season. We touched on the non-conference opponents the next couple of seasons, looked ahead at how the Big Ten is handling conference scheduling for the next two years, which games are protected rivalries, and how things might move forward if more teams are added to the conference. I propose (logistics be damned) that college football can add some drama to the schedule by doing Champions League-style draws for opponents and locations. Is it weird? Sure, but it could also be fun. Finally, we touch on the revitalization of the Glenville Pipeline after two recent four-star recruits from that high school have committed to Ohio State. Is it important to have a Glenville Pipeline? We think so, but not just Glenville. Just because the Buckeyes recruit nationally, it doesn’t mean they can’t put that fence back up around the state of Ohio. We’ll be back next month, or possibly sooner if news warrants, as we remain in our offseason broadcast schedule. We’ll return to our weekly format in August as we ramp up for the 2023 Ohio State football season.

To get the show started, we get into the future Chip Trayanum propaganda that will be on this podcast from here on out. Then we turn to Ohio State’s 2025 quarterback commitment and the next steps after Tavien St. Clair announced his commitment to the Buckeyes. After that, we turn our attention to official visits in college football, and why they are now a meaningless indicator in recruiting. There should be less worry about elite recruits taking visits, they are allowed to take as many as schools are willing to offer. Plus on the player Ohio State fans are most concerned about, there is no reason to carry that concern as long as Brian Hartline is employed. We return from the break with a game called Ohio State versus the field. In this game we are predicting if certain Ohio State recruiting prospects are going to be Buckeyes or choose to go to school somewhere else. After the game we read off the worst coach rankings of all time, and we get into why seeing the Titanic at the bottom of the ocean is a terrible idea to begin with.

Join LGHL’s Josh Dooley and Chuck Holmes as they cover Ohio State football, basketball, recruiting, and much, much more! Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of Hangout in the Holy Land, Josh and Chuck spark a fiery debate with their Burning Questions. As if their usual takes were not already spicy enough, this week the hosts wonder aloud whether a beloved coaching legend should be on the hot seat in Columbus. Also, in a post-pod blunder, they quickly run out of clever ‘hot’ words for the description you are currently reading. Dad jokes and wordplay aside, the guys have serious questions pertaining to Ohio State’s defense, such as: Has Larry Johnson lost his fastball? Did he get it right with J.T. Tuimoloau and/or Jack Sawyer? How culpable for recent defensive struggles is the group LJ put together? Moving beyond the line of scrimmage, when will Buckeye fans get to see C.J. Hicks and/or Sonny Styles fully unleashed? Count the Hangout boys among those most excited for the future of these 2022 mega-recruits.

As if their usual takes were not already spicy enough, this week the hosts wonder aloud whether a beloved coaching legend should be on the hot seat in Columbus. Also, in a post-pod blunder, they quickly run out of clever ‘hot’ words for the description you are currently reading. Dad jokes and wordplay aside, the guys have serious questions pertaining to Ohio State’s defense, such as: Has Larry Johnson lost his fastball? Did he get it right with J.T. Tuimoloau and/or Jack Sawyer? How culpable for recent defensive struggles is the group LJ put together? Moving beyond the line of scrimmage, when will Buckeye fans get to see C.J. Hicks and/or Sonny Styles fully unleashed? Count the Hangout boys among those most excited for the future of these 2022 mega-recruits.

Stroud gone, is the play of Kyle McCord and/or Devin Brown essential to OSU having an elite offense? Or can multiple running backs shoulder the load?

This week is all about asking “What If?”. You can catch up on all of the Theme Week content here and all of our ”What If?” articles here. On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I’m joined by Jordan Williams to discuss all the news surrounding Ohio State football, the Big Ten, and the wide world of sports. To get the show started, we get into two of the biggest stories in the sports world. Lionel Messi is coming to America and this is a generational story that changes American sports. Then we talk about the LIV/PGA merger, and how the overarching story is indicative of all the decisions made in the sports world. After that, we turn our attention to some Ohio State football news. We talk about five best offensive linemen, who they might be, and why there is a history of the best five not actually working. We then turn to predicting the Big Ten TV schedule – sorry about the time traveling on this one. We return from the break with a discussion about the biggest ‘What ifs’ in regard to Ohio State. This talk gets into Troy Smith in a modern offense, the potential replacements of Urban Meyer, and more fun looks back at Ohio State.

]]> 3168 Bucketheads: Post-NBA deadline assessment of Ohio State, Big Ten Men's Basketball Bucketheads’ is the only men’s basketball-focused podcast on the Land-Grant Podcast Network, co-hosts Connor Lemons and Justin Golba give the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes as well as all the other happenings in the college hoops world. ‘Bucketheads’ will be released every other Thursday during the offseason. With the NBA Draft deadline passed, Connor and Justin used episode 77 to discuss the state of the Big Ten conference. This year’s NBA deadline was a win for the B1G, as noteworthy stars like Terrence Shannon Jr., Zach Edey, Coleman Hawkins, and Boo Buie returned to their respective teams. The guys agreed that the top of the conference will likely be anchored by the Boilermakers and Spartans, with the Illinois Fighting Illini not far behind. Spots three through eight are a hodgepodge of teams who are likely to make the NCAA Tournament, but probably aren’t good enough to win the Big Ten — like Ohio State, Maryland, and Northwestern. The bottom of the Big Ten will likely have some familiar faces: Nebraska, Minnesota, and Penn State. But both Connor and Justin agree that Michigan is poised to take a major step back as well after a disastrous offseason that saw Hunter Dickinson, Jett Howard, and Kobe Bufkin all leave.

Is there any chance whatsoever that Ryan Day and his Ohio State football staff produce a dud (instead of a dude) at quarterback? If so, are the Buckeyes toast in 2023 and potentially even 2024? Will Jim Knowles (ever) replicate his Oklahoma State magic with better players in Columbus? And would that make OSU a championship contender, regardless of QB play?

This week is all about players to watch this upcoming season. You can catch up on all of the Theme Week content here and all of our ”Player to Watch” articles here. On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I’m joined by Jordan Williams to get into real science versus fake science, and why you have to look at both. To get the show started, we get into Mickey Marrotti’s lack of accountability and why the issues in the sports science side are due to lack of listening to basic science. After that we get into the other questionable coach on staff, Parker Fleming and the specialists conversation. After that, we turn our attention to the offensive side of the ball and get into what the coaches said to the media this week. We talk about Brian Hartline’s comfort level, Tony Alford’s talented room, Justin Frye’s goals this year as well as the offensive line competition, and Corey Dennis talking quarterbacks. We close out the offensive side with our players to watch. We return from the break with a discussion about the defensive coaching staffs media availability. This conversation includes talk about Larry Johnson’s group needing consistency, Jim Knowles being haunted, Tim Walton’s mature cornerback room, and what we expect from the young five stars. We then get into our defensive players to watch. To close out the show, we finish with our final thoughts on both sides of the ball and make the easiest NBA Finals prediction in years.

This week is all about players to watch this upcoming season. You can catch up on all of the Theme Week content here and all of our ”Player to Watch” articles here.

On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I’m joined by Jordan Williams to get into real science versus fake science, and why you have to look at both.

To get the show started, we get into Mickey Marrotti’s lack of accountability and why the issues in the sports science side are due to lack of listening to basic science. After that we get into the other questionable coach on staff, Parker Fleming and the specialists conversation.

After that, we turn our attention to the offensive side of the ball and get into what the coaches said to the media this week. We talk about Brian Hartline’s comfort level, Tony Alford’s talented room, Justin Frye’s goals this year as well as the offensive line competition, and Corey Dennis talking quarterbacks. We close out the offensive side with our players to watch.

We return from the break with a discussion about the defensive coaching staffs media availability. This conversation includes talk about Larry Johnson’s group needing consistency, Jim Knowles being haunted, Tim Walton’s mature cornerback room, and what we expect from the young five stars. We then get into our defensive players to watch.

To close out the show, we finish with our final thoughts on both sides of the ball and make the easiest NBA Finals prediction in years.

]]> 6830 I-70 Football Podcast: Kevin Warren, I was rooting for you! Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will catch you up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players you should be paying attention to next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. Happy Memorial Day from the I-70 Football Podcast! We hope you or someone in your family got on the grill and enjoyed some excellent food. In this episode, Dante and Jordan discuss the retirement of Iowa’s athletic director Gary Barta and his checkered legacy at Iowa. Under Barta, the Hawkeyes won four national championships in wrestling and a bunch of Big Ten championships between Football, Wrestling, and Men’s and Women’s Basketball. Despite some success, Barta and Iowa have had to pay out $11 million from multiple lawsuits alleging racism, gender discrimination, and breaking Title IX laws. Recently Iowa had 26 players get suspended due to gambling, under Barta Iowa has been marred in controversy, they’ll now have a chance to move on and get it right with their next hire.  Jordan regrets his decision to support Kevin Warren after discovering how badly he messed up the Big Ten’s media deal before leaving to be the President of the Chicago Bears. Warren, continuing his trend of under-communicating, promised NBC a night game package that included night games in November despite a handshake agreement from a previous regime that allowed Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State, and others to not play games at night. The new media deal elicited a negative response from football coaches due to the November night games and basketball coaches due to the number of games scheduled to stream on peacock. Aside from coaches not being happy, there is $70 million worth of games up in the air due to schools not wanting to play at night. On top of potentially losing $70 million, the conference owes Fox $40 million because Warren gave up the rights to the 2026 Big Ten Championship game without their permission and another $25 million for lost revenue due to the pandemic. Overall Kevin Warren left a huge mess for the new commissioner to fix in his first month on the job.

]]> 6590 Buck Off Podcast: Big Ten’s TV deal, neutral site football games, and a recruiting update https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I’m joined by Jordan Williams to discuss the greatest exit in Big Ten conference history and why Big Ten administrators are an incredibly thoughtless group. To get the show started, we get into Kevin Warren’s final job with the new TV deal and all the errors he left for new commissioner Tony Pettitti to figure out. This litany of things includes giving away a game he wasn’t allowed to. not consulting programs about November night games, and more. After that we turn our attention to the worst decision a Big Ten program has ever made with scheduling. Michigan State is playing Penn State at Ford Field, a neutral site matchup on Black Friday that gives no benefit to anyone involved. The guys discuss how far away East Lansing is from Detroit and how the handling of breaking the news to season ticket holders was poor. This conversation divulges into some rants about how dumb neutral site football games are. We return from the break with a discussion about the most recent realignment stories. This discussion includes why conferences should not listen to their worst athletic programs about anything, and how additional west coast teams are favored by some athletic directors in the Big Ten. We also discuss the recent update for ACC programs, and why the high and mighty feeling some of them have is a house of cards. To close out the show, we finish with our final thoughts on recruiting and our favorite commentary teams in college football.

]]> 3822 Silver Bullets Podcast: Buckeyes in the NFL Draft, transfer portal news, and kickoff times We’re back for our May check-in and there’s always news, even in the offseason. We start this show off by looking back at how Ohio State’s former players did in the NFL Draft. We didn’t have to wait long to hear C.J. Stroud’s name called, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba was the first receiver taken, but what about the overall draft? We walk though where the Buckeyes were selected, who landed in a good spot, and who slipped unexpectedly. Were there any giant surprises? Not necessarily, but there were some mild ones. After our NFL Draft talk, we checked the arrivals and departures boards over at the transfer portal. There were some key additions and a couple of guys split, but overall the OSU roster didn’t change a lot. We discussed what to expect from the new guys from an active, post-spring transfer period for the Buckeyes. The kickoff times for a couple of games were announced and the Buckeyes are going to play a night game in mid-November. That’s news. It also isn’t something that sat well with the folks at Ohio State and a few other spots around the Big Ten. There are some elements of the new NBC deal that didn’t get the blessing of some of the B1G’s member institutions, or at least their athletic directors. A night game in November can be a little unpredictable when it comes to Big Ten weather. A lot of times it’s fine, but when it isn’t, it’s really not fine. We’ll be back next month, or possibly sooner if news warrants, as we remain in our offseason broadcast schedule. We’ll return to our weekly format in August as we ramp up for the 2023 Ohio State football season.

This week is all about what we would do if we were in charge of our favorite position group, team, conference, or sport. You can catch up on all of the Theme Week content here and all of our ”If I Was in Charge” articles here. On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I’m joined by Jordan Williams to discuss the recent recruiting news on the defensive back front. After a few new predictions rolled in for a big time local defensive back the internet obviously handled it well. This leads to a wide discussion about Ohio State’s to main corner targets and why the battles against Michigan in this are more important. Then we get into the Elite 11 battle as well as Notre Dame being awful at recruiting. Then we get into the Big Ten quarterback situations and rank them from bad to good with need to see in the middle. We rate every quarterback situation from Illinois to Wisconsin and there are definitely some disagreements here. To close out the show, we finish with our final thoughts with a take on the NCAA video gams NIL plans and the failures of southern education.

We start the show with a celebration of Jordan’s matrimony and discuss his current energy as he returns to the show. After the wedding talk, we move our focus to what is really important, the fact we are now a Los Angeles Lakers podcast. After that, we get into how the Buckeyes handled the transfer portal this offseason. To start the discussion, we dive into the additions and subtractions in and out of the portal. Then our attention turns to why Ohio State’s transfer portal philosophy changed so aggressively in a years time. To close out the conversation we give our final grades on the holistic performance of retaining and gaining players for the Buckeyes in the portal. Continuing on after the break, we turn our attention to our most unrealistic expectations. This conversation starts with some more Tommy Eichenberg propaganda, and moves into even more Tommy Eichenberg propaganda. After, we discuss our king Tommy, our attention shifts to the other unreasonable expectations including Heisman candidates, reasonable fans, and Ohio State having the best defensive line in the country. After that our show closes out with some quick discussions about everything Jordan missed in during his honeymoon and a conversation about the best roster in college football.

]]> 6785 Bucketheads Podcast: Evan Mahaffey ditches Happy Valley for Columbus Bucketheads’ is the only men’s basketball-focused podcast on the Land-Grant Podcast Network, co-hosts Connor Lemons and Justin Golba give the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes as well as all the other happenings in the college hoops world. ‘Bucketheads’ will be released every other Thursday during the offseason. Try as they might, Connor and Justin couldn’t resist leading off episode 75 of Bucketheads by talking about Bronny James’ recruitment and recent commitment to USC. They hashed out why, for a long time now, James playing for the Buckeyes didn’t make a ton of sense logistically — despite how fun the idea was. Then, they discuss Ohio State’s addition of sophomore forward Evan Mahaffey, a Cincinnati native, and graduate of Moeller High School. Mahaffey played one season at Penn State but will play his final three seasons in Columbus donning the scarlet and gray. The guys agree this is a high-reward, low-risk pickup for Ohio State, as he’s unlikely to start or be pressured to contribute in any critical way this season.

We start the show with a discussion about the offense and the biggest concerns on that side of the ball. The Buckeyes have one position group that is concerning on the offensive side, and without even saying it, I think you know what group will be discussed first. After that, we turn our attention to quarterback expectations, and then a conversation about maintaining health. After that, we turn our attention to the defensive side of the football. This discussion starts with the secondary, then we get into our level of concern that this half of the defense takes the necessary steps forward. We continue our defensive concern discussions with chat about Larry Johnson’s defensive line and our worry about his ill-timed rotations. The last bit we discuss is about Ohio State limiting big plays. To close out the show today, we get into our final thoughts on our level of concern on a few different scales for the Buckeyes this fall. We summarize the points we talked about, print out a final number, and discuss why even if our concerns come to fruition, Ohio State will probably still be a very good football team.

Also, Ohio State transfer Eugene Brown is heading home to Georgia Southern and Ohio State adds veteran guard and Baylor transfer Dale Bonner. What will Bonner’s impact be and will the Buckeyes add another transfer with the assumption that Brice Sensabaugh is definitely NBA bound?

Join LGHL’s Josh Dooley and Chuck Holmes as they cover Ohio State football, basketball, recruiting, and much, much more! Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of Hangout in the Holy Land, Josh and Chuck discuss best-case and worst-case NFL Draft scenarios for C.J. Stroud and Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Is Stroud actually better off falling? And will teams view JSN as a potential WR1 at the next level? The guys then look at a few landing spots for Paris Johnson Jr. and Dawand Jones, with the latter’s fit in Cincinnati up for debate. While Big Thanos performed very well during the 2022 season, his lack of activity during this draft cycle has been at least somewhat concerning. Finally, the conversation circles back to Stroud and an apparent smear campaign against him. Once viewed as QB1, he now finds himself the subject of silly rumors. Both Josh and Chuck implore teams to look past the usual pre-draft noise and instead watch the tape. Make sure to like, rate, review, and subscribe to the podcast! And as always, Go Bucks!

We start the show with a discussion about Jordan’s matrimony this weekend and future advice on couples who are planning on taking that significant step. This also divulges into a conversation about the expenses of a wedding. With that out of the way, let’s all give Jordan a hearty congratulations. After that, we get into the business side of the show with a major discussion about Ohio State’s offensive line, Starting here creates an elevator build of excitement as the positions continue, but man are there some concerns with the offensive line. Continuing on the fronts, the exact opposite can be said about the defensive line, which also might be a problem. Continuing on after the break, we turn our attention to the the other position groups that had some stand outs including linebacker, Chip Trayanum, and the corner backs. As we move through every position on the team we finish with quarterbacks and why this battle is not settled. After that our show closes out with some quick discussions about Ohio State’s success developing three star recruits and some recruiting banter on the bird app from some offensive line commits.

We start the show with a discussion about the injury to Devin Brown’s hand taking a lot of steam out of the largest story entering the game, this leads to a discussion about the actual importance of the Spring game when evaluating players. After that we discuss the positions we’ll be watching the closest which includes the offensive line and defensive backs. After that, our discussion turns what we can learn about from players who might not play this season, but are getting on the field due to injuries. This conversation discusses future position battles including the one between the young receivers. Lastly, in the Spring preview we talk about Brian Hartline calling plays and why we’ll learn very little about what it will look like in Spring. Continuing on after the break, we turn our attention to the new collective getting involved with the Ohio State athletic programs. We don’t want to sell it as it should be up for you to decide where you donate money, but we get into the perks that come with some of the tiers. We also discuss why this collective is the most sustainable model for future success in the program.

]]> 3604 I-70 Football Show: Michigan and Ohio State battle for recruiting supremacy Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will catch you up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players you should be paying attention to next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. March and the first two weeks have brought significant recruiting wins for Ohio State and Michigan. Over the last month, Michigan has landed four recruits including two from Ohio and a five-star quarterback. Jordan Marshall, the no. 91-ranked recruit in the 2024 class, committed to Michigan making him the first top 100 recruits in the state of Ohio to commit to Michigan since 2013. Michigan followed this up by landing a low-rated Ohio offensive tackle and finally secured the commitment of five-star quarterback Jadyn Davis who has flirted with a Michigan commitment for almost a year. After much worry about Michigan passing Ohio State in recruiting the Buckeyes started heating up landing five-star wide receiver and no. 27 ranked Mylan Graham, no. 69 overall running back James Peoples, and no. 84 overall quarterback Air Noland.  Jordan and Dante discuss the recent run of recruiting by these two programs and consider if the Twitterverse is overreacting to the last month in recruiting. The guys agree that Ohio State is not dead just because Michigan landed a highly-rated running back. Michigan has improved its recruiting so far this class but it does not reflect on Ohio State more so a reflection of Michigan's recent success and commitment to recruiting. Recruiting is the lifeblood of a program but NFL draft success is what keeps recruits interested in your program. The Big Ten has twenty-two players in The Athletics consensus top 100, twenty-five if you include USC and UCLA. There is a major flaw in the ranking as two star players were left out of the top 100.  Lastly, the guys talk a little NBA! The 2023 Basketball Hall of Fame class is one of the best collections of talent!

Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will catch you up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players you should be paying attention to next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. March and the first two weeks have brought significant recruiting wins for Ohio State and Michigan. Over the last month, Michigan has landed four recruits including two from Ohio and a five-star quarterback. Jordan Marshall, the no. 91-ranked recruit in the 2024 class, committed to Michigan making him the first top 100 recruits in the state of Ohio to commit to Michigan since 2013. Michigan followed this up by landing a low-rated Ohio offensive tackle and finally secured the commitment of five-star quarterback Jadyn Davis who has flirted with a Michigan commitment for almost a year. After much worry about Michigan passing Ohio State in recruiting the Buckeyes started heating up landing five-star wide receiver and no. 27 ranked Mylan Graham, no. 69 overall running back James Peoples, and no. 84 overall quarterback Air Noland.  Jordan and Dante discuss the recent run of recruiting by these two programs and consider if the Twitterverse is overreacting to the last month in recruiting. The guys agree that Ohio State is not dead just because Michigan landed a highly-rated running back. Michigan has improved its recruiting so far this class but it does not reflect on Ohio State more so a reflection of Michigan's recent success and commitment to recruiting. Recruiting is the lifeblood of a program but NFL draft success is what keeps recruits interested in your program. The Big Ten has twenty-two players in The Athletics consensus top 100, twenty-five if you include USC and UCLA. There is a major flaw in the ranking as two star players were left out of the top 100.  Lastly, the guys talk a little NBA! The 2023 Basketball Hall of Fame class is one of the best collections of talent!

We start the show with a discussion about the tight end position and why this might be the most sneaky elite unit on the team. Our talk gets into Ryan Day’s love for all things 11/12-personnel, Jordan’s four wide receiver dream, and why this year might be the year the 37 catch total falls. With all this talk, the guys announce the official “Year of the Tight End” After that, our discussion turns to the recruiting front, and why Brian Hartline’s run of recruits – most recently 5-star Mylan Graham – has us all numb to what he is actually accomplishing. The talk continues into a a dialogue about Hartline’s white receiver competitiveness and growing career aspirations in the coaching profession. To close out the recruiting talk the guys get into a the commitment of Air Noland and why he might be the most exciting quarterback prospect of the class (hint: he’s left-handed and puts up stats). Then they read the 247Sports Ohio State crystal ball list on air, and discuss how Ohio State’s recruiting might get super ridiculous. After that we get into out recruiting segment, our chitchat moves to the running back room. The excitement for Treveyon Henderson needs to start rising, and the health of this room can truly take the team to the next level.

]]> 2388 I-70 Football Show: A Record Breaking Women's Championship Game Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will catch you up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players you should be paying attention to next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. The Big Ten and college football as a whole has quiet all month, giving room to March Madness as the sole focus of the college sporting world. We are still waiting for the conference to decide on its new scheduling format, release updated information on the 2023 television schedule, and search for the new commissioner, as Kevin Warren will be heading to the Chicago Bears soon. Instead of boring you with the lack of news, Dante and Jordan focus on the Women’s final four and national championship game.  The Big Ten had a nice run in the NCAA tournament, with Iowa, Maryland, and Ohio State making it to the elite eight and Iowa upsetting reigning national champion South Carolina for a spot in the national championship. Iowa star Caitlyn Clark was the best college player in the country, including men and women, for the whole season but went supernova in the tournament, breaking the record for most points scored in a single tournament in NCAA history. She also became the first player to score 40 points in back-to-back games in the tournament. Unfortunately, she was not about to bring home a championship to Iowa and the Big Ten losing to Angel Reese and the LSU Tigers.  LSU, led by Angel Reese, dominated Iowa almost wire to wire, maintaining a double-digit lead for most of the game aside from a brief stretch in the third quarter when Caitlyn got hot. Other than the third quarter, LSU was comfortable all game behind Reese’s record-breaking 34th double-double this season and a brilliant performance off the bench from Jasmine Collins, who put up 22 points and made five out of six three-pointers. The guys discuss the game in-depth, including whether this is the best national championship game in recent history. And the unfortunate media narrative and double standard around celebrating and taunting in women's sports.  Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

We start the episode with a discussion about the offensive line, Justin Frye has heaped prais on Carson Hinzmann, so the guys recalibrate their expectations. After the discussion about Hinzmann, the conversation turns to a more holistic look at the offensive line and why figuring out the five or six offensive linemen definitively competing for jobs is important for the long term strength of the unit. After that, our discussion turns to the defensive side of the ball, we talk about the impact Davison Igbinosun has already had in the secondary room. This conversation gets into how his ability also creates a higher level competition at the corner position, and why that is a huge part of why the corners will potentially be more successful this season. To close out the Spring talk, we get into our thoughts on the receivers who have taken advantage of Julian Fleming and Emeka Egbuka being out this Spring. This turns into a conversation about the freshman wideouts, and why the injuries to the second year players is bad for their potential outlook in the future. After that we get into out recruiting segment, this talk gets into all the biggest stories over the last week, and why Ohio State is building a strong base class. In this part of the show, we discuss how Notre Dame lost even more than James Laurinitis when he joined the Buckeye staff and why Ohio State is about to get hot on the recruiting trail. To close out the show, we discuss Major League Baseball Opening Day, and why our respective teams will end the year in sad places.

Saturday afternoon, the Ohio State women's basketball team did something few expected them to do in Seattle, Washington: The Buckeyes defeated the UConn Huskies, ending their quest for a 15th straight trip to the Final Four. Following the emphatic victory, forward Cotie McMahon, guard Jacy Sheldon and head coach Kevin McGuff addressed the media. McMahon talked about beating a team that many thought would roll over the Buckeyes, the love of her mom and what she's done for her basketball and her big performance in the victory. Sheldon talks about how teammate Taylor Mikesell is tough as nails following a game where Mikesell appeared to play through injury, McMahon's confidence and more. Coach McGuff goes into what the win means for the team, preparing against not only the Huskies but the aura the Huskies bring to games and how parity in NCAA women's basketball has changed over the past few years.

Saturday afternoon, the Ohio State women's basketball team did something few expected them to do in Seattle, Washington: The Buckeyes defeated the UConn Huskies, ending their quest for a 15th straight trip to the Final Four.

Following the emphatic victory, forward Cotie McMahon, guard Jacy Sheldon and head coach Kevin McGuff addressed the media.

McMahon talked about beating a team that many thought would roll over the Buckeyes, the love of her mom and what she's done for her basketball and her big performance in the victory.

Sheldon talks about how teammate Taylor Mikesell is tough as nails following a game where Mikesell appeared to play through injury, McMahon's confidence and more.

Coach McGuff goes into what the win means for the team, preparing against not only the Huskies but the aura the Huskies bring to games and how parity in NCAA women's basketball has changed over the past few years.

]]> 1460 Buck Off Podcast: Ohio State Spring Practice News, recruiting the state of Ohio, and Buckeyes on ABC https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I’m joined by Matt Tamanini to talk about the biggest news coming out of the Woody Hayes Athletic Center from Ohio State’s Spring practice. Before the big conversation topics, our first discussion is about Ohio State’s annual pro day and how the players performed. We get into the scene of the event and dive into why C.J. Stroud locked up the number one pick on Wednesday. Then our attention turns to some other surprises, and a discussion about how a young receiver being out there signifies a big role to come. After that, we turn our attention to the Ohio State media availabilities from this week to get into what we can learn from the coaches and players speaking. We begin this section of the show with a talk about what we expect from the scrimmage and the importance the coaching staff will put on this glorified practice. We continue on discussing the defensive line media availability. Our biggest takeaway gets into the importance of the health of a certain player in the interior. Then we get into what we can project about the depth on the defensive line and what we can takeaway from what the older players are saying about their younger teammates. We close out this talk with why the Jack linebacker is gone because Ohio State does not need one, unless they have the type of player recruited for it. With the talk about the defensive line we have to discuss the offensive line and that discussion gets into how the players who spoke might end up being the starters on the OL. Then we turn our attention to the Josh Fryar’s move to left tackle and the players stepping up on the leadership side of things in the room. To close out the show, we save the best for last with Ohio State’s women’s basketball team taking on UConn in the Sweet 16. Our discussion gets into the importance of the games being on ABC and why the Buckeyes are one of the most fun basketball teams to watch in the country.

Spring football practices are underway as the team looks to develop in its off-season approach to the annual Ohio State Spring Game glorified practice.

The Ohio State women's basketball team entered Monday as a slight favorite over the North Carolina Tar Heels.

We start the episode with a discussion about the pay raises for the Ohio State football staff. There are some interesting raises including Tim Walton who is now the defensive passing game coordinator and Parker Fleming is in the exact same role with higher pay. We get into what each raise means, and how crazy the amount assistant coaches are making is. After that, our discussion turns to the chatter coming out of the Woody Hayes Athletic Center. I can hold back my excitement about a certain group of receivers, and we discuss why the linebacker room is in the best place it has been in years. This talk leads to a lot of bullish energy on the two rooms over the next few years. We start the second half of the show with a talking about the two transfer defensive backs and why the excitement should be contained with the Ole Miss Transfer Davison Igbinosun. The corner room under Tim Walton might be in its best place since 2019. After that we get into out last major discussion talking about the Buckeyes in the NFL during their free agency.

Check back throughout the season for more interviews and coverage of the historic Big Ten women’s basketball program. Next on Since 1899; An OSU WBB podcast, return guest Wyatt Crosher. Creator and writer on the Hoopla Substack, Crosher joins the show for the second time, this time to discuss the upcoming NCAA Tournament.

From there, the talk shifts to the Scarlet & Gray and their tournament chances. Crosher talks about the interior strength of the James Madison Dukes. Also, how the Purdue Boilermakers can't be counted out against the UNC Tar Heels in the other Columbus, Ohio tournament matchup. After weighing the Buckeyes' chances in a potential Sweet Sixteen game against the UConn Huskies, the Big Ten goes under the microscope. How well will the conference play in the tournament, which teams have a real chance to make a splash and what are the chances that the Maryland Terrapins could unseat the South Carolina Gamecocks in the Elite Eight?

]]> 679 I-70 Football Show: The Waiting Game Continues Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. After a brief hiatus, the guys are back, but the football gods did not bless them with a heavy news cycle. Instead, the Big Ten has been relatively quiet the past few weeks. With multiple significant decisions still to be made, the conference has instead gone dark. There has yet to be any news on the search for the new commissioner, and there is still much to be decided on regarding the structure of the television deal, namely which games will be on which network this fall. We’re waiting for news on the new scheduling model and the permanent opponents for each team.  In other news, Maryland hired former Michigan and Miami offensive coordinator Josh Gattis to the same role. Gattis will be tasked with creating a similar potent offense to what he had at Michigan. After failing at Miami, there are many questions on whether Gattis of Sherrone Moore should be credited for Michigan's success. In the NFL, the Bears have traded the number one pick to the Panthers for picks no. 9 and 61 in this year's draft, a first-round pick in 2024, and second-round pick in 2025, and wide receiver Dj Moore. While the Bears are building around former Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields, Jordan thinks this trade happened so the panthers could draft Field's successor at OSU, C.J. Stroud.  In their last segment, Jordan makes his case for why it’s time for Northwestern to move on from head coach Pat Fitzgerald. Fitzgerald has been the head coach since 2006; he has a career record of 110-101, barely above a 50 percent winning percentage. Fitzgerald has led the wildcats to two Big Ten West Division titles, one if you remove the pandemic year. In his last three full-length seasons, Northwestern is 7-29, 3-24 in the Big Ten. Despite his lack of recent success, the boosters have paid for a new football facility on the lake and have committed $800 million for a new football stadium. Northwestern is not the easiest or most attractive job, but they are better than what has been accepted the past three full-length seasons. If Fitzgerald doesn’t turn it around this season, which is unlikely, Northwestern needs to be realistic and move on from the greatest linebacker in school history.  Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 5445 Buck Off Podcast: Spring Practice Chatter, an offensive line discussion, and codebreaking coach speak https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I’m joined by Jordan Williams the guys are here to discuss the changing seasons and Ohio State starting Spring Practice. We start the episode with a discussion about why Spring Football is so exciting for everyone around the program. There is nothing, but excitement this time of year and this is the time for all of the hottest takes. After that our discussion turns to the chatter coming out of the Woody Hayes Athletic Center. The guys start with the big conversation about quarterbacks and discuss exactly what we know at this point about the competition – hint, it’s not much. We continue talking about the questions, and how the offensive line might be decided by the end of Spring. We close out the first half of the show with some rapid fire question-answers regarding the remaining noise out of the first couple Spring practices. Topics included are Jim Knowles playing more linebackers, no Jack position in the Spring, and Marvin Harrison Jr. returning punts. After the break we you decide to become codebreakers, and decipher the coach speak that was happening at the pressers. There’s nothing that we can’t figure out, and this leads to us discussing why certain Buckeyes might not play as much as anticipated. To close out the show, we discuss how big the Buckeyes got this Winter and why you should wear plenty of Scarlet-and-Gray this weekend.

Following the first practice, the first 30 minutes of which was open to the media, head coach Ryan Day answered questions about his plans for his team over the next five weeks. He provided updates on the quarterback battle between Kyle McCord and Devin Brown while also discussing his plans and expectations for other players.

Then, defensive coordinator Jim Knowles took to the podium to provide further insight into the guys on his side of the ball. The biggest news from his session was the announcement that Jack Sawyer will exclusively play defensive end this season, instead of playing the DE/linebacker hybrid Jack position.

During episode 69 (nice) of our men’s basketball podcast, Connor and Justin dissect the Big Ten Tournament bracket and take their guesses at how far Ohio State will advance. One of our cohosts think the Buckeyes will win a game before bowing out in round two. The other....is a bite more optimistic. Then they make their picks for a winner, as well as break down which bubble teams will need one win or more to solidify a spot in the NCAA Tournament. Michigan probably needs two wins, while Rutgers may need one — mathematically, this won’t work out for both parties. Wisconsin absolutely needs to beat Ohio State to get into the tournament, and Penn State could use a win against seven-seed Illinois to make sure they’re safe.

Following Ohio State’s 84-78 loss to the Michigan State Spartans Saturday afternoon in East Lansing, we were able to speak with Brice Sensabaugh, Justice Sueing, and Ohio State head coach Chris Holtmann about the loss. Despite the loss, all three seemed confident and ready for a potentially long week in Chicago. Sensabaugh started and felt he made poor decisions in the first half and took some questionable shots. He said he took better shots in the second half, and that the team’s toughness and resolve showed when they pushed the Spartans to the final minute despite trailing by 13 at one point. Sueing echoed Sensabaugh’s confidence in his team’s ability to always stay in a ballgame. He also noted that their defense on the perimeter was lacking at times, while the emotions of Senior Day may have also helped MSU’s confidence. Holtmann praised Sueing’s game, noting that the senior forward was just shy of a triple-double. He said that the Buckeyes put together “a lot of quality offensive possessions” but that their ball screen defense lagged and allowed the Spartans to hit some shots from the perimeter.

The Ohio State women's basketball team made a habit this season out of coming back to defeat opponents. In the regular season, their best was a 17-point deficit erased against the Illinois Fighting Illini. Then, on Saturday, they outdid themselves, coming out of a 24-point hole to beat the No. 1 team in the conferene and No. 2 team in the country: The Indiana Hoosiers. After the 79-75 victory, head coach Kevin McGuff and guards Jacy Sheldon and Taylor Thierry spoke with the media about the win. Up first are Thierry and Sheldon. The two Buckeyes discussed moving on quickly from their big win to focus on the winner of the Maryland Terrapins and Iowa Hawkeyes in the second conferene semifinal. Also, Sheldon discussed returning from injury and how it feels to be back on the court. For coach McGuff, he shared about the win being something he's never seen before, what he told the team in the lockerroom that calmed the team's nerves and what he'll now miss on Sunday because of the victory.

We start the episode with some discussion about the rigors of higher education and why the fact it’s golf season has me excited.

Then we turn to the Buckeyes at the NFL combine, the keys to their success, and why this weekend is always important for the program. We start with one of the players with the most to prove at the combine, and then we get into why we’re mad about Zach Harrison not participating. After the break we get into additional combine stories including C.J. Stroud’s hand size measurements. Then we project how fast Jaxon Smith-Njigba and why to somebody with eyes, his forty time should not matter in his evaluation. We continue the discussion with some talk about the offensive linemen. To close out the show, I bring up a conversation that was started by Urban Meyer’s interview in The Athletic. We discuss where a coach with a checkered past morally can still discuss running a program, and why most programs should not throw stones at other programs about morals.

Willard walked into the press conference, realized only one Maryland reporter traveled to Columbus for the game, and promptly walked out. He blew off the first question, half answered two more questions over the next 90 seconds, and then got up and left. We then spoke to the seniors — Sueing, McNeil, and Likekele. All three players talked about their families and being grateful their families were able to make it to Wednesday night’s game — Likekele’s family traveled from Texas and Sueing’s from Hawaii. They also talked about the growth of Ohio State’s freshmen but did not want to talk about the Big Ten Tournament with another game coming up at Michigan State. Holtmann closed the conference and said the team really wanted to send Sueing off with a win in his final time in front of Ohio State fans. He also talked about Likekele’s ability to post up being a game-changer against the Terrapins.

]]> 4183 LGHL Uncut: Bruce Thornton Confirms Ohio State is Where He Wants to Be Following Illinois Win https://www.landgrantholyland.com Throughout the year, Land-Grant Holy Land will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. After Ohio State’s 72-60 victory over Illinois on Sunday (open the fridges!), we spoke with Chris Holtmann, Brad Underwood, Justice Sueing, and Bruce Thornton about the win, which snapped a nine-game losing streak. Thornton reaffirmed that this is where he wants to be — which should settle down any talk or cynical rumblings of Ohio State’s freshman point guard transferring. He also said that when you “stack good days” wins are eventually going to come, even if they have not been lately. Underwood was as surly as you’d expect after losing to the 13th-place team in the Big Ten. He said that the loss had nothing to do with Ohio State’s defense and everything with his team’s shot selection. Underwood also said that he’s getting close to just telling some of his guys to stop shooting three-pointers, at all costs. Holtmann gave a lot of credit to Sueing, Thornton, and Gene Brown during his time. He said players win games, not coaches, and those three especially carried the team. He also mentioned that he wants Thornton to slim down a few pounds this offseason, but that having a big body at guard is helpful.

On the final day of the regular season, the Ohio State women's basketball team looked like the team they were going into the 2023 calendar. Instead of a lopsided double-digit loss to a Big Ten team for the fifth time this season, the Buckeyes played to the last second against the No. 7 Terrapins, ultimately falling 76-74. After the defeat, head coach Kevin McGuff and guard Taylor Mikesell spoke to the media. Breaking down the game, coach McGuff talked about the game going down to the visitors making one more play than the Buckeyes. Also, if free throw shooting was anywhere close to average it would've been a different story. McGuff also shares what he said to the team following the loss and what Mikesell means to the program in her short time in it, with Friday also being senior night for the graduate senior. Then, Mikesell addresses the competitive response to the loss, and not taking moral victory in losing by a single possession. Also, the guard talks about what's different now than earlier this month when the Buckeyes were playing poorly and losing to top teams in the conference and what it meant to finish her career with Ohio State. Next up for the Buckeyes is the Big Ten Tournament, starting Friday in the third round.

Following a back-and-forth, entertaining game in Columbus that saw Penn State ultimately prevail 75-71, we spoke with Chris Holtmann, Micah Shrewsberry, Bruce Thornton, and Brice Sensabaugh. The players led off, with Sensabaugh discussing the task of guarding Jalen Pickett and Thornton saying that the work “isn’t for nothing” and that even if wins aren’t coming, he feels like they are better now than they were. Shrewsberry, like almost every coach before him who has handed Ohio State a loss recently, took time to talk about Holtmann’s coaching ability and defend his peer. He said to “get that nonsense out of my face” with the “nonsense” assumedly being the calls to fire Holtmann after a disastrous season. Finally, Ohio State’s head coach discussed the task of guarding Pickett as well. He said that, although the Buckeyes operated well on offense, empty possessions in the most crucial spots prevented them from pulling ahead.

We obviously circle everything back to the Buckeyes though on our national show. We start the episode with the biggest conversation topic across recruiting message boards with NIL. The conversation starts with our expectations surrounding NIL in the future, and a big reason the crazy collectives might have a glass ceiling placed by programs around the country. Then our attention turns towards the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and their offseason failures. We get into their failures that have occurred since Brian Kelly, losing Tommy Rees making them a stepping stone job, and them not paying for the offensive coordinator Marcus Freeman wanted. This one is for our Irish fan friends who don’t take football as seriously as the big time programs. After that, we get into what’s going on in the Southeastern Conference. Florida has lost three assistants in as many days. With Florida the talking point, Anthony Richardson has Jordan and I back to hating NFL Draft “Experts.” It’s not a real job, but the offensive coordinator job at Alabama is supposedly. So we ask how they ended up with Tommy Rees. We get into some light conversations about Apple pitching their broadcasting bid to the Pac-12 and why this actually might hurt them in the long run. After that, the show moves into the potential rule changes to the clock to help speed up games.

]]> 3478 LGHL Uncut Podcast: Ohio State's McGuff and Harris following a rivalry win over Michigan (2/22) https://www.landgrantholyland.com Throughout the year, Land-Grant Holy Land will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. The Ohio State women's basketball team looked like their early season selves on Monday, in a trip to the Michigan Wolverines. In the 74-61 Buckeyes rivalry win, Ohio State clinched a top-four spot and a double-bye in the Big Ten Tournament and showed that they can compete and win against ranked Big Ten teams. Following the victory, head coach Kevin McGuff and guard Rikki Harris spoke to the media at the Crisler Center in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Coach McGuff applauded Harris' 23-point night, leading Ohio State in the win.

]]> 868 I-70 Football Podcast: '22 Season Recap - Tier 4 Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. After a week off we are back with our final 2022 season recap. We talk through the dreg of the Big Ten focusing on the five teams that did not make bowl games. Many of the five teams are in different places in their program. Indiana and Northwestern should enter the season with coaches on the hot seat. Pat Fitzgerald is a Northwestern legend and it’s unlikely he’ll be fired despite going 1-11 but Tom Allen will need to improve after going 4-8 in 2022.  Nebraska fired Scott Frost mid-season and struggled to find an identity or consistency on either side of the ball as the defense took a significant step back from 2021. Despite transfers at quarterback, running back, and wide receiver the offense was boom or bust all season. Of all the teams in this tier, their season is the most forgivable. Michigan State and Rutgers entered 2022 with third-year head coaches coming off promising seasons.  The Spartans finished the season 11-2 and while Rutgers couldn’t reach that level they entered the last game of the season 5-6 with a chance to make a bowl game. Despite a loss, they still played in the postseason as the country's best 5-7 team. In 2022 they both took a step back. Rutgers had one of the worst offenses in the country playing three quarterbacks while Michigan State couldn’t rebound from the loss of Kenneth Walker. All five teams struggled in 2022 for various reasons, it was not a fun season but they’ll enter 2023 with a fresh slate.  Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

We start the episode with our week’s ahead and some news around the sport. I get into a discussion about my new found career of wizarding and Jordan discusses his weekend plans visiting friends. After that, we turn to Ohio State football to discuss the biggest news of the week. Ohio State cancelled a their home-and-home series with Washington in 2024 and 2025, as you know Washington Huskies fans are not taken the news well. We discuss the reasoning behind this move and how the changing landscape of college football will create more game cancellations like this one across the country. After that our discussion continues forward and we transition to talking about Ohio State’s staff hires not included in the 11 full-time coaches on staff. This includes Mark Pantoni’s recent recruiting staff hire, Gene Smith’s hire to his leadership program, and a certain transfer into the program who is basically a fifth graduate assistant. To close out the show, we discuss our depth chart projections for the season ahead of Spring Practice. These will probably be 100 percent correct and not at all change as the season gets closer.

]]> 1076 Silver Bullets Podcast: Off-season news, transfers, coaching staff, and spring ball Ohio State football news never sleeps, even during the off-season. There’s a lot of ground to cover since our last show, which capped a season that ended a bit earlier than we liked, and we’re here to talk about it. We start by recapping Ohio State’s NFL Draft declarations and decisions to return, including who the biggest surprises were on both sides of the issue. That led to discussion of which Buckeyes will be taking part in the NFL Combine this spring. The transfer portal was also a busy “place” after the last game of the season and we talked about some of the comings and goings via that route as well. The death of Dimitrious Stanley at age 48 was a blow to some of us ‘elder statesmen’ in the Buckeye fan base, so it was worth revisiting his legacy and put some respect on the name of a guy who may not have the huge numbers or the most famous name in OSU history, but he was integral to the success of a great 1996 Ohio State team. The Ohio State coaching staff hasn’t exactly been shaken up so far this off-season but there have been some changes. We discussed what the addition of Buckeye great James Laurinaitis as a graduate assistant — focused on linebackers — will affect the team going forward. We also talked extensively about Brian Hartline’s future looks like as Ohio State’s offensive coordinator. We like both moves for the Buckeyes as well as for the careers of those two individuals. Other topics included mentioning the players who are sitting out this upcoming spring and who stands to gain ground during the practices leading up to the 2023 Spring Game. It will be an important time especially for the offensive line as well as some of the younger wide receivers who are competing to get time in 2023 and become the successors to Marvin Harrison Jr., Emeka Egbuka, and Julian Fleming. We’ll be back next month, or possibly sooner if news warrants, as we remain in our off-season broadcast schedule.

The death of Dimitrious Stanley at age 48 was a blow to some of us ‘elder statesmen’ in the Buckeye fan base, so it was worth revisiting his legacy and put some respect on the name of a guy who may not have the huge numbers or the most famous name in OSU history, but he was integral to the success of a great 1996 Ohio State team.

The Ohio State coaching staff hasn’t exactly been shaken up so far this off-season but there have been some changes. We discussed what the addition of Buckeye great James Laurinaitis as a graduate assistant — focused on linebackers — will affect the team going forward. We also talked extensively about Brian Hartline’s future looks like as Ohio State’s offensive coordinator. We like both moves for the Buckeyes as well as for the careers of those two individuals.

Other topics included mentioning the players who are sitting out this upcoming spring and who stands to gain ground during the practices leading up to the 2023 Spring Game. It will be an important time especially for the offensive line as well as some of the younger wide receivers who are competing to get time in 2023 and become the successors to Marvin Harrison Jr., Emeka Egbuka, and Julian Fleming.

We’ll be back next month, or possibly sooner if news warrants, as we remain in our off-season broadcast schedule. In the meantime, feel free to reach out with your feedback and questions below in the comments section or send us an email. Be sure to subscribe, rate, review, and share.

]]> 4247 LGHL Uncut: Izzo, Holtmann discuss Michigan State’s win, state of Ohio State program https://www.landgrantholyland.com Throughout the year, Land-Grant Holy Land will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. Following Ohio State’s lopsided, comical loss to Michigan State Sunday afternoon, we spoke to Tom Izzo, Chris Holtmann, and Bruce Thornton about that game and the state of Ohio State’s program in general. Izzo spoke at length about Holtmann and the Ohio State program. He mentioned that “once you build the monster, you have to feed the monster” meaning that once you establish success at this level, you have to figure out how to sustain it. Izzo said Sunday’s game was a “rock fight” but that he had several players contribute in other ways than scoring. Thornton talked about the losses piling up and was also asked about social media. He said there are a lot of “hate comments” thrown his way, but that he’s had to stay mature and just learn to ignore people on the internet. Holtmann talked about how Izzo’s Spartans slowed the pace down quite a bit from when the two teams met last season, but that his offense was just all-around “rough.” He talked a bit about Brice Sensabaugh’s continued struggles and what he’d like to see from Roddy Gayle for the rest of the season.

Following Thursday night’s loss to Northwestern, the media spoke with the head coach of the winning team — Chris Collins — and the losing team — Chris Holtmann. We also spoke with Justice Sueing and Bruce Thornton. Collins spent most of his time relating Ohio State’s current struggles to the struggles of some of his Northwestern teams over the years. He said that Ohio State has been in most of their games, but “It’s hard to get back up and compete when you’ve experienced so little joy.” Collins said the Buckeyes have several playmakers, but that his team’s resolve and positivity on the road helped get them the win. Sueing and Thornton didn’t have a ton to provide, other than dismissing the idea that something “was up” with Brice Sensabaugh after his worst game in college thus far. Sueing acknowledged that he’s played better, but that it doesn’t matter when the team isn’t winning. Holtmann also dismissed the idea that he’s “taken Sensabaugh out of his rhythm” by moving him to the bench for the past two games. He said Sensabaugh is “being guarded by the other team’s best player” and that he is just trying to get the freshman in the best position possible.

We start the episode with a discussion about the Buckeyes at the NFL awards including Garrett Wilson, Nick Bosa, and more. This leads to a trip down memory lane discussing the differing skillsets of Chris Olave and Wilson, and discuss their memorable rookie seasons. Then we discuss the Bosa Brothers’ tale of two seasons. And this turns into a discussion about getting into someone’s head. After that our nostalgia kicks in and we discuss LeBron James and our favorite video game memories from childhood. We talk about the scoring record of LeBron and how it was such a big sports moment that needed even more appreciation. This leads to a conversation about the NCAA basketball video games and how we can’t wait for the next college football video game. Then our conversation turns to our Super Bowl preview and you have on hots on each side of the matchup. We debate who will win, favorite non-football Super Bowl activities to make the game more interesting (hint: betting), and then we make our picks for the game. Continuing on with the show, we discuss the current media news in Texas and Oklahoma leaving the Big 12 a year early as well as how far down the Pac-12 has fallen. In both conversations there is a lot of talks about future failures and how bad the situations for all three will be in a few years.

During episode 65, Justin and Connor return to discuss an Ohio State team that’s now 3-9 in Big Ten play and all but eliminated from the NCAA Tournament with a month still to play. It took some time, but it seems that Chris Holtmann has finally hit the point where he just wants to play the guys who play the hardest, limiting the minutes of some in favor of guys like Gene Brown and Tanner Holden. While the Buckeyes aren’t mathematically eliminated from the tournament, they’ll have to go on quite the run to make it, plus win a few games in the B1G Tournament — or win the B1G Tournament outright. It’s been quite some time since Ohio State has won consecutive games, so the odds of that are slimmer than slim. They also discuss Holtmann’s ejection from the Wisconsin game, and who stepped up big-time for the Wolverines on the perimeter last weekend to give Hunter Dickinson the space to do what he did.

Following Ohio State’s 77-69 loss to Michigan in Ann Arbor, the media was able to speak with Bruce Thornton, Justice Sueing, and Chris Holtmann about the loss, the losing streak, and what needs to improve to finish the season on a positive note. Thornton spoke more than Sueing and was asked about the career-high 22 he scored in the loss. Thornton said he felt like he and the team were able to play “more free” than before, but that did not lead to a victory. Sueing insisted that this is a talented team that just keeps coming up a bit short. Holtmann spoke about his team’s defense — or lack thereof — saying that his team was in a position several times to tie the game or make it a one-possession game and could not. He said there were several stretches of really good play, and the team brought good energy and motivation into this game. Despite that, the Buckeyes were not able to make the final push at any point in this game.

Following Ohio State’s 65-60 loss to Wisconsin, the media spoke to Greg Gard, Chris Holtmann, Zed Key, and Isaac Likekele about Ohio State’s eighth loss in their last nine games. Gard, the winner of the game, was able to discuss Wisconsin shaking off a bad stretch and winning a game on the road. Gard praised his players for “not letting the outside noise get to them” and refusing to let a slump (Wisconsin had lost six of seven heading into Thursday’s game) continue. He praised Brice Sensabaugh’s ability to create shots at any time, but said it was much easier to guard him on Thursday since he was in foul trouble the entire time. Key and Likekele did not have answers for why Ohio State did not come out with enough “bite” or “energy” in the 22nd game of the season. Key stoutly rejected any notion that the team dislikes or resents Sensabaugh for his sudden success. Holtmann was as short as he’s ever been in a press conference. He was critical of officials, saying, “We weren’t allowed to talk to them.” He also said he’s not sure why a second technical was called on him, adding that, “The first was warranted, but I did not feel that the second was.” Connect with Connor: Twitter: @lemons_connor Theme music provided by www.bensound.com  Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 2205 Buck Off Podcast: Takeaways from the coaches speaking to the media and who’s calling plays next year? On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I’m joined by Jordan Williams to get into the offseason storylines and the media availability of the Ohio State coaches. We start the episode with a discussion about some of the national stories and get caught up around the country. NBC announced a new media team for their Big Ten football broadcasts. Then we break down the spring practice unavailability report, and break down the importance of each player on the list. Once we get through the opening, we get into the meaning of James Laurinaitis returning to the Buckeyes as a GA on the coaching staff. Our conversation gets into the impact having a former player with the experience of Laurinaitis can only provide value in his current role. After the break, we get into who’s calling plays for the Buckeyes in 2023 and why Ryan Day allowing Brian Hartline to call plays in the Spring. This gives Day enough time to evaluate the staff in their roles, and will also give him the time to truly evaluate if Hartline is up to the task of play-calling duties. Continuing on with the media availabilities we discuss what the defensive coaches got into and how continuity is the theme of the day. Then we discuss our final thoughts on some key things that were mentioned by offensive coaches. Our last topic gets into the offensive line news and why people need to listen to us more when it comes to the offensive line. To close out the show, we give our final thoughts about Iowa Football not changing a thing.

After the break, we get into who’s calling plays for the Buckeyes in 2023 and why Ryan Day allowing Brian Hartline to call plays in the Spring. This gives Day enough time to evaluate the staff in their roles, and will also give him the time to truly evaluate if Hartline is up to the task of play-calling duties. Continuing on with the media availabilities we discuss what the defensive coaches got into and how continuity is the theme of the day. Then we discuss our final thoughts on some key things that were mentioned by offensive coaches. Our last topic gets into the offensive line news and why people need to listen to us more when it comes to the offensive line. To close out the show, we give our final thoughts about Iowa Football not changing a thing.

The Ohio State women's basketball team played three tough opponents last week and came out winless. The now No. 10 Buckeyes spoke to the media following the 73-65 defeat to the Purdue Boilermakers and what went wrong.

He also answers questions about the return of injured guard Jacy Sheldon and if maybe the Buckeyes are tired and hitting a wall. Following the coach are guards Taylor Mikesell and Tayor Thierry. Mikesell discusses shots not falling, the impact of Sheldon's absence resonating for weeks and not just Sunday and how the adversity is coming at the right time for Ohio State. Thierry also added comments about a tough Big Ten conference and fouling out of the game.

]]> 858 I-70 Football Podcast: '22 season recap - Tier 2 Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. The NFL season is winding down as the conference championship games were yesterday! Dante and Jordan predicted the Eagles and Chiefs winning their games, setting up a highly anticipated super bowl. Brock Purdy may be the future 49ers quarterback of the future but Jordan doesn’t think he’s ready for this type of environment. Dante doesn’t believe Mahomes will lose to Joe Burrow again, especially with how Travis Kelce has played recently. Before breaking down tier two the guys also talk about former Carolina Panthers interim head coach Steve Wilks's potential lawsuit after being passed up for the job by former Colts head coach Frank Reich.  After discussing three East division teams in tier one, tier two is full of teams from the west division. Tier two consist of the West division champs Purdue boilermakers. Illinois Fighting Illini and Minnesota Gophers. Minnesota entered the 2022 season as the favorite to win the west after continually getting better the past three years and the return of super seniors Tanner Morgan, Mo Ibrahim, John Michael-Schmitz, and Chris Autman-Bell. Injuries ended a dream season as Morgan and Aultman-Bell missed an extended amount of time. Illinois entered 2022 with pretty low expectations in the second year of their rebuild under Bret Bielema, they exceeded expectations by winning eight games and were a late season collapse away from winning the west division entirely.  Purdue entered 2022 with super senior quarterback Aidan O’Connell leading the team but was without star players David Bell and George Karloftis who both entered the 2022 NFL draft. O'Connell, buoyed by childhood best friend and Iowa transfer Charlie Jones, led Purdue to the Big Ten championship game. O’Connell battled injury and did not recapture the magic from the 2021 season but that meant little as Jones and freshman running back Devin Mockobee kept the Boilermakers afloat when O’Connell was not at 100%. The defense was a mess but the trio of O’Connell, Jones, and Mockobee did enough to win Purdue's first ever Big Ten division title.  Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

We start the episode with a discussion about some of the national stories that we’re not excited to see coming into the offseason and the already over zealous respect for some teams that don’t deserve it. After this we discuss the landscape of college football in the offseason. Once we get through the opening, the conversation turns to Ohio State’s roster and where our concerns lie ahead of Spring Practice. This conversation goes from least concern to most concerned back to least concerned, and no we don’t discuss the receivers here because there is no concern. After the break we get into the defensive side of the roster. This conversation starts with a discussion about why the defensive backs aren’t the biggest group of worry. We also discuss the most disappointing group over the last four years for the Buckeye defense Our last topic gets into our feelings around the offseason promotions on the coaching staff. We talk about our feelings with Brian Hartline being promoted to Offensive coordinator. This leads to a discussion about the balance between staff experience and youthful new ideas.

Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I’m joined by Jordan Williams to get into our biggest questions so far this offseason for the Ohio State Buckeye football team.

We start the episode with a discussion about some of the national stories that we’re not excited to see coming into the offseason and the already over zealous respect for some teams that don’t deserve it. After this we discuss the landscape of college football in the offseason.

Once we get through the opening, the conversation turns to Ohio State’s roster and where our concerns lie ahead of Spring Practice. This conversation goes from least concern to most concerned back to least concerned, and no we don’t discuss the receivers here because there is no concern.

]]> 6201 Bucketheads: Life in basketball purgatory; Ohio State needs to play itself back to tournament contention https://www.landgrantholyland.com Bucketheads’ is the only men’s basketball-focused podcast in the LGHL family of podcasts, co-hosts Connor Lemons and Justin Golba give the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes as well as all the other happenings in the college hoops world. ‘Bucketheads’ will be released every Thursday morning throughout the regular season. During episode 63, Connor and Justin break down Ohio State’s precarious position in both the Big Ten and the NCAA Tournament picture. At 3-6, a Big Ten title is clearly out of reach. But with only three games separating the second-place team and the 12th-place team, everything else is a crapshoot. Relatively speaking, any team can slide up or down the standings over the next six weeks and it would not be a surprise. Similarly, the Buckeyes currently sit on the right side of the NCAA Tournament bubble as a projected 11-seed, likely playing at the University of Dayton in the first four. A few wins could slide them into a better position and avoid that situation. A few more losses could drop them off the bubble completely. The guys close with an “Around the Horn” style whip-around, with Justin discussing every B1G team for exactly 20 seconds.

]]> 932 I-70 Football Podcast: Recapping 2022 football season's Tier I Big Ten Teams Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. The NFL playoffs are in full swing! Dante and Jordan take a moment to discuss this weekend's games before getting into the Big Ten season recap. Daniel Jones and the New York Giants had a great season but they ran into the buzzsaw known as the Philadelphia Eagles. Patrick Mahomes led the Chiefs past the Jaguars and Trevor Lawerence but suffered a high ankle sprain in the process. That could have lasting effects, which could mean bad news with Joe Burrow and the Bengals coming into town next week.  It’s the offseason and we’re a couple of weeks removed from the season so now is the perfect time to review the season and re-rank teams into our tiered system. This week we start with tier one which includes Michigan, Ohio State, and Penn State. Tier one was the easiest tier to complete, there were only three teams in the conference who won more than ten games and their only losses were to each other. Michigan finished the season 9-0 in conference beating Penn State and Ohio State and winning the Big Ten for the second season in a row. Ohio State suffered another loss to Michigan but made the playoffs coming within a missed field goal of beating national champion Georgia Bulldogs.  Penn State won ten games behind a resurgent run game led by freshman running backs Nick Singleton and Kaytron Allen. In quarterback Sean Clifford’s last season of eligibility, the Nittany Lions couldn't reach the mountaintop but they bounced back from a couple of down seasons setting the foundation for the 2023 season. These three teams were the class of the conference separating themselves from the rest of their peers. 2022 was not a banner year for the conference as a whole but between these three teams, there were two college football playoff participants and the winner of the Rose Bowl. The top of the conference is as strong as its ever been.  Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

There’s a lot of fanfare surrounding Monday's game between the No. 2 Ohio State women’s basketball team and No. 10 Iowa Hawkeyes. It features a 19-0 Scarlet & Gray side who could continue their historic run and match a program high 20-game wing streak. On the other side there’s guard Caitlin Clark, a favorite for National Player of the Year. During all that competition on the court will be a name from Buckeyes success of the past: Kelsey Mitchell. Ohio State is honoring the former Ohio State All-American and current guard for the Indiana Fever during Monday’s game. Adding more excitement to an already jam-packed evening. Before she was honored, Mitchell spoke with the media about a long list of topics. Part of it was on the current Buckeyes team and their undefeated start to the season. Mitchell pinpoints what makes streaks like this one achievable, advice for those players on Ohio State who are looking ahead to playing professional basketball and how she feels about being honored at a game for the first time since finishing her NCAA career in 2018. Also, Mitchell discusses the future of the Indiana Fever, playing with Athletes Unlimited basketball and her sales pitch to people who watch college basketball but don’t watch the WNBA. Mitchell also talks about her own professional journey through injury, playing overseas and the transition from a college basketball player to a professional, ending the entire interview with some good advice that applies to things outside of basketball.

Following Ohio State’s 93-77 romp over Iowa on Saturday, we spoke to Iowa head coach Fran McCaffery, Ohio State head coach Chris Holtmann, man of the hour Isaac Likekele, and leading scorer Brice Sensabaugh in the post-game press conference. McCafferey was short with his answers, mostly saying that his team was too careless with the ball and allowed themselves to get beat on the glass in the second half. He wouldn’t say how much his team did — or didn’t — prepare for Likekele, who entered the game averaging three points per contest. Likekele was the target of most questions, asking about his production that day and his thoughts on where his team stands at 3-5. He said that, although he wasn’t scoring much this season, scoring 18 points is not something that he’s never done. Finally, Holtmann spoke and talked highly of Likekele, saying he didn’t ask for more offense, he just told Isaac to be himself. He also praised the OSU student section, and said it was nice to have a fun moment in the locker room with the team after losing for over two weeks straight.

]]> 4295 I-70 Football Podcast: Kevin Warren is leaving for the Bears Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. After a long layoff due to the holidays Dante and Jordan are back with another episode of the I-70 Football Podcast. Since we last recorded Ohio State and Michigan lost in the College Football Playoff semi-finals while Georgia destroyed TCU en route to winning back-to-back national championships. In recent news, Big Ten commissioner Kevin Warren is leaving the Big Ten to accept the position as President of the Chicago Bears. Warren's tenure with the Big Ten will be highly debated, on one hand, he orchestrated the largest television contract in college football history and brought USC and UCLA into the Big Ten. On the other hand, he made more enemies than friends as coaches, fans and administrators still haven't forgiven him for canceling the Big Ten season due to Covid. Warren may not be remembered fondly but he made a major impact in a short period and is on track to reach his goal of becoming the next commissioner of the NFL.  In other news, at the time of recording C.J. Stroud has not decided on if he will enter the NFL draft or return to Ohio State for a third season. Jim Harbaugh has to make a decision as well, despite claiming to want to be back at Michigan for the 2023 season he is once again interviewing for NFL head coaching jobs. Which is more likely: Harbaugh roaming the sidelines in Ann Arbor or Indianapolis? We’re voting for Indianapolis with Denver as a close second. Much like all of college football the Big Ten is constantly changing. In this vein, Illinois defensive coordinator has accepted the head coaching job at Purdue. Kent State transfer wide receiver has committed to Penn State and OSU wide receivers coach Brian Hartline has been promoted to offensive coordinator to replace Kevin Wilson, the new head coach at Tulsa.  In the final segment of the show, the guys give their way too early superlatives for the 2023 football season. You can never take early predictions too seriously but the impending decisions by C.J. Stroud and Jim Harbaugh make these almost impossible. There is one thing we can be sure of though, Marvin Harrison Jr. will be the best wide receiver in the Big Ten next season.  Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

Following Ohio State’s worst regular-season loss in over six years, we spoke to Minnesota head coach Ben Johnson, Ohio State head coach Chris Holtmann, plus Buckeyes Isaac Likekele and Sean McNeil in the post-game press conference. Johnson gave Ohio State credit for being a “tough, gritty team” that knows how to make tough shots. He praised his team’s play lately, and told them that if they continued to play the way they have been, the wins and losses will work themselves out. Neither Likekele or McNeil had much to say, repeatedly describing Ohio State’s mistakes as “fixable” and saying they need to get back to work on Friday to fix them. McNeil mentioned that he felt the Buckeyes didn’t play with nearly enough energy, “Like we didn’t want to be out there.” Holtmann had his shortest post-game interview of the season, by far. He said that aside from the fight his team showed in the final minute, there were no positives to take from this game. He also said that if guys didn’t show up with energy or weren’t ready to play, that was something he would need to address.

]]> 1818 Buck Off Podcast: The End of Year Award Show and Tommy Eichenberg is back https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I’m joined by Jordan Williams to host our end of season award show highlighting some of the best moments from the 2022 season. We start the show with a discussion about Tommy Eichenberg’s big decision to return to Ohio State and how that is beneficial for the Buckeye defense heading into year 2 of Jim Knowles’ defense. We also discuss why having a talented player returning far outweighs potential that has not been seen in game action yet. Then we get into a discussion about Kevin Warren’s decision to leave his role as Big Ten commissioner to be the president of the Chicago Bears. Our discussion dives into the impact Warren had on the Big Ten conference and why his tenure was a resounding success. After the news and notes we get into our end of season award show discussing the best and worse from 2022. In the first half we get into the worst from the 2022 Ohio State season, this includes the most painful moment and the player we will not miss who left for whatever reason. Then we discuss our worst takes as well as some of our favorites we saw this season. Once we get through our Razzies, we get into our Oscars. We discuss the team MVP, the team MVP not named a C.J. Stroud, and our favorite moments of the year among a few others. During it all our normal tangents come into play, so if you just expect structure, you’ll be disappointed. Then, to close out the show, we give our best takes from the season. And we wanted to say thank you to all who have listened this season, interacted with us, and made covering Ohio State another year so fun.

During Episode 61 of our men’s basketball podcast, Connor and Justin dissect Ohio State’s loss to the Maryland Terrapins last weekend. It was a bad loss both in terms of emotions and Big Ten-standings implications, but there’s still time to regroup. The guys discuss how they do this, and what needs to be done to “make up” for that loss. Then, Connor hits Justin with some “overreaction or not” statements, where Justin has to decide if the Ohio State and Big Ten-related prompts are reasonable or clear overreactions. Does Ohio State need to make a lineup change tonight? Is Indiana already dead? On a scale of one to a car warranty call, how fraudulent are the Northwestern Wildcats? They close with a brief preview of Thursday night’s game with Minnesota. It would be a quad-four loss if the Buckeyes can’t get the job done, which would be truly damaging to their NCAA Tournament resume.

]]> 2808 LGHL Uncut Podcast: McGuff, Mikesell and McMahon discuss marquee win over Illinois (1/9) https://www.landgrantholyland.com Throughout the year, Land-Grant Holy Land will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. Following a program record-breaking 17-point second half comeback victory over the Fighting Illini, the Ohio State women’s basketball team wasn’t in the celebrating spirit. The 87-81 win had positives, but reoccurring areas to improve, highlighted after the game during media availability with head coach Kevin McGuff, guard Taylor Mikesell and forward Cotie McMahon. Coach McGuff is up first. He didn’t mince words when he discussed how the Buckeyes were embarrassing the program in front of a raucous crowd at the Schottenstein Center. Also, the key factor in what changed in the second half, the performance of McMahon and defining a favorite phrase for the coach — “competitive character.” Then, Mikesell talks about how Ohio State needs to stop needing to come back like they have this season, but taking value in learning that lesson in a win over a defeat. McMahon finishes availability off talking about similar items to her teammate and coach, but also goes into more detail about competitive character. Specifically, going out on the hunt in the second half against teams.

Following a program record-breaking 17-point second half comeback victory over the Fighting Illini, the Ohio State women’s basketball team wasn’t in the celebrating spirit. The 87-81 win had positives, but reoccurring areas to improve, highlighted after the game during media availability with head coach Kevin McGuff, guard Taylor Mikesell and forward Cotie McMahon. Coach McGuff is up first. He didn’t mince words when he discussed how the Buckeyes were embarrassing the program in front of a raucous crowd at the Schottenstein Center. Also, the key factor in what changed in the second half, the performance of McMahon and defining a favorite phrase for the coach — “competitive character.” Then, Mikesell talks about how Ohio State needs to stop needing to come back like they have this season, but taking value in learning that lesson in a win over a defeat. McMahon finishes availability off talking about similar items to her teammate and coach, but also goes into more detail about competitive character. Specifically, going out on the hunt in the second half against teams.

No. 24 Ohio State (10-4, 2-1) had a lead with under 30 seconds to go for the seconds time in the past three weeks, but came up short, falling to No. 1 Purdue 71-69 in front of a packed crowd at the Schottenstein Center. A crucial turnover followed by a dagger three-pointer from Purdue did them in and dealt Ohio State their first conference loss of the season. Following the nail-biter, we first spoke to Matt Painter, who seemed relieved more than anything. He said Ohio State losing Zed Key four minutes into the game “simply was not fair” and gave a ton of praise to the duo of Felix Okpara and Gene Brown for their defensive efforts slowing down 7-foot-4 Zach Edey. We then heard from Justice Sueing and Sensabaugh, who were short on words for the most part. Sensabaugh did his best to deflect questions that were about his personal stats and development. Sueing took ownership for the costly turnover that ultimately cost his team the win. Finally, Chris Holtmann spoke and said that he needs to continue to work with Justice on ballhandling and breaking the press. He also said that his team’s strategy to stop Edey worked to a point, but they don’t practice post-trapping a ton.

We start the show with our final thoughts coming out the Peach Bowl playoff game down in Atlanta. The conversation starts where we stand with the Buckeyes and our level of excitement moving forward. We move on to the biggest questions remaining after the game and where Ohio State stands in college football. Then we get into a discussion about Ryan Day the play caller, and why the Kirk Herbstreit comments about him passing the torch should hold a lot of weight. This leads to us talking about what a world without Day calling plays looks like and why you should not expect too much change from what to expect offensively. After that our conversation turns to the key positions moving forward into the offseason and the most important questions surrounding the four groups we discuss. We get into the corners, the safeties, the running backs, and the offensive line. In these discussions we ask questions and try to give our best answers. Next, we get int our final thoughts on the season and what Ohio State needs to do next if the Buckeyes are going to take the next steps.

]]> 5095 Silver Bullets Podcast: Georgia Rewind and Postmortem Ohio State’s season is over and there were any number of tiny details Saturday night that could have changed that fact. Timeouts being given, targeting fouls being overturned, reversals of spots, and, finally, a missed field goal. For us, the bottom line is that Ohio State gave itself a chance to beat the unbeaten Georgia juggernaut and if the team only had a functional secondary, the game might have been a complete blowout victory for the Buckeyes. Ryan Day called a brilliant game, despite so many frustrating ones that had come before. C.J. Stroud not only showed a willingness to scramble to pick up every yard possible but he also demonstrated that he’s pretty great at it. Stroud made some plays with his legs that both were good in and of themselves and others that were good because they set up plays that he made with his arm. It was a tour de force performance for one of the best quarterbacks in OSU history. But we’re ultimately not happy, even though we predicted a loss by more than the one point it turned out to be. Getting that close makes it all the more excruciating in some ways. The season is over and, despite the overall dissatisfaction of the OSU fanbase — or the fanbase of any elite program — it was a good one. The Buckeyes made the College Football Playoff and suffered losses only to two of the top four teams in the country. We opened this week’s show with some overview from the game and then discussed news that Ryan Day may be relinquishing play-calling duties next season. This is something we’ve been championing for some time but it remains to be seen whether it actually happens, who gets that responsibility, and how it will work out. We broke down the game as in-depth as we could, discussing key plays, calls, decisions, and statistics from a game for the ages that didn’t go our way. As a last piece of business, we discussed Jim Harbaugh’s Michigan Wolverines getting knocked out by TCU and the reports that if offered an NFL head coaching job, he would take it. We’re not sure how a report about a hypothetical is useful at all, but we’ll see if an offer does come if that’s what he chooses to do. We’ll be back next month, or possibly sooner if news warrants, as we transition into our off-season broadcast schedule.

They covered a wide range of topics after snapping a three-game losing streak to the Wolverines. Coach McGuff started off by talking about the game as a whole. Specifically, how the game didn’t go exactly as planned, adjustments made in the first quarter and how having both programs at the top of their game helps the conference. After McGuff, Harris and Bristow talk to the media together. In their joint press conference, the two guards had a lot to say about the Wolverines. Specifically that the Michigan defense isn’t the toughest one they’ve faced this season, how it was just another win to the team and how the officiating in the game turned it into a much more emotional contest. Also, Bristow talks about her big game, leading Ohio State in the second half in important, game-changing, plays.

]]> 691 Instant Recap Podcast: Pain and suffering, Ohio State loses a heartbreaker to Georgia 42-41 in the CFP to end the season https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ Ohio State loses in a heartbreaking fashion to the Georgia Bulldogs 42-41 in a Peach Bowl Showdown for the ages. To get the show started, we get into their initial reactions from the game and why this loss will sting for quite a long time. After that conversation we get into C.J. Stroud’s performance and how this was one of the greatest games from an Ohio State quarterback. We also discuss the narratives around the Buckeye signal-caller and why those might be unfair to continue down the road – including a suspect defense. Ohio State’s secondary was atrocious once again in key moments, and let the Buckeyes down multiple times in the second half. We discuss these problems and why the Buckeyes will need to take a long look in the mirror heading into the new year. This conversation also includes some discussion about position groups who also struggled; After that, our conversation moves to the job Ryan Day did as a play-caller and how he called his best game in over two years. This conversation starts with discussion about strategy and turns to talk about the impact injuries had on this offense, To conclude the show, we give our final thoughts on the season, our final takeaways from the matchup with Georgia, and discuss the expectations for next year as Ohio State begins their offseason Connect with Chris Renne: Twitter: @ChrisRenneCFB Connect with Justin Golba Twitter: @Justin_Golba Learn more about your ad choices.

Ohio State (9-3, 1-0) played down to the level of their competition Thursday night in the first half, briefly trailing Alabama A&M (4-9) for just over 60 seconds. But a Buckeye avalanche ensued in the second half, and they won the game by 31 points in dominant fashion. After the game. Bruce Thornton and Tanner Holden spoke with a few media members — the few who aren’t in Atlanta — about the win. Thornton admitted he really has “No idea” what the Big Ten will be like with 19 games coming up over the next two-plus months. Holden also spoke on that, as well as his team’s struggles getting back in transition at times. Holtmann followed and also was critical of his team’s transition defense, saying it “Just isn’t where it needs to be now.” But he was proud of the way both Isaac Likekele and Gene Brown played after being out for extended periods of time.

During the 59th episode of “Bucketheads” the guys discuss the media’s and the NBA’s recent fascination with Ohio State freshman forward Brice Sensabaugh. The baby-faced assassin currently leads Ohio State with 15.3 PPG to go along with 4 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game. He is also shooting 48.9% from three, which is the second-best mark in the Big Ten. Mock drafts have the 6-foot-6 freshman going anywhere from the 20th pick to the 44th pick in the 2023 NBA Draft. He’ll enter the draft without a doubt, but will his likely landing spot be high enough that he’d stay in? These conversations will certainly heat up over the coming months. Then, Thomas Costello joins the show to discuss the No. 3 Ohio State women’s basketball team. The Buckeyes are on a tear, with wins in each of their first 13 games (Northwestern pending). They take on No. 14 Michigan this weekend, but Kevin McGuff’s team won’t be at full strength, as both Jacy Sheldon and Madison Greene will likely be out against the Wolverines.

He’ll enter the draft without a doubt, but will his likely landing spot be high enough that he’d stay in? These conversations will certainly heat up over the coming months. Then, Thomas Costello joins the show to discuss the No. 3 Ohio State women’s basketball team. The Buckeyes are on a tear, with wins in each of their first 13 games (Northwestern pending). They take on No. 14 Michigan this weekend, but Kevin McGuff’s team won’t be at full strength, as both Jacy Sheldon and Madison Greene will likely be out against the Wolverines.

]]> 4740 Silver Bullets Podcast: Early Signing Day and Georgia Preview We’re back after a one-week holiday hiatus and we’re getting ready for Ohio State vs. Georgia. The Buckeyes and the Bulldogs seems like a dream match-up for neutrals and something to be insanely nervous about from now until then for those of us who follow Ohio State football. Before we get to the Bucks vs. the Dawgs, we follow up on some OSU All-America business from our last show and we discuss Ohio State’s haul for the 2023 class from Early Signing Day. The Buckeyes reloaded with talent and despite some angst from those who let the decisions of teenage boys affect their moods, we are confident that there is plenty of quality for the coaching staff to work with and retain the team’s perennial contender status. We’re particularly happy about the wide receiver room (as usual) and the staff’s ability to pluck talent out of the Southeast. Jeremy Attaway from SBNations blog Dawg Sports jumped on with us to give us his expertise on Georgia’s personnel and approach to the game. We grilled our guest and he responded about the Bulldogs’ quarterback, running back group, tight ends, defense, and more. Huge thanks to Jeremy for his contributions to the show. Finally, as always, we put our reputations on the line and gave our picks to click in this game on both the OSU offense and defense, and made our score predictions for the game. We’ll have to wait for next week to see how we did, but the spoiler is that we’re either going to be at least somewhat correct in our predictions or else we’ll be pretty happy. We’ll be back next week to break down the Georgia game and, if all goes well, we’ll have another game to preview. If all does not go well, we’ll be sad and start our postseason wrap-up. In the meantime, feel free to reach out with your feedback and questions below in the comments section or send us an email.

]]> 5094 I-70 Football Podcast: Big Ten recruiting + semi-final previews Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! The guys are back after spending the holidays with family to discuss Big Ten football. In between episodes the early signing period has come and gone and the future of the Big Ten is set, aside from a few transfers and some late signings. Ohio State’s reign in recruiting continues, it hasn’t translated on the field against Michigan but they continue to be the best recruiting program in the conference and one of the best in the nation. Seeing that these 2023 recruits will most likely see most if not all of their playing time as members of the Big Ten we included USC and UCLA in this conversation. Penn State, USC, Michigan, and Michigan State round out the top five. There should be no surprises with that list, besides USC coming in at 15th in the country, behind Penn State at 14. This will probably be the lowest USC ends up in the Lincoln Riley era.  Transitioning back to on-field football Jordan and Dante preview the two college football playoff semi-final games. Starting with Ohio State vs. Georgia, the guys give Ohio State a 35% chance to upset Georgia. On paper Ohio State is pretty equal to Georgia, they both recruit at a high level and the Buckeyes have some clear advantages over the Bulldogs at quarterback and wide receiver. Regardless, the game is won on the margins and Georgia has the better head coach, better strength and conditioning staff, and game plans around their player’s strengths better. Ryan Day will need to coach the best game of his career to put his team in a position to upset the reigning national champions. This game has a chance to be the best semi-final game in the four-team playoff era.  Michigan is the popular choice to beat TCU and make the national championship. Many people in the country are not giving TCU a real shot thinking that Michigan will steamroll them. Jordan disagrees with that assumption giving TCU a 45% chance to upset the Wolverines. TCU will be the toughest team mentally that Michigan has faced, their strategy of leaning on teams and throwing body punches until they quit won’t work against TCU. Led by Max Duggan, TCU has fought back all season refusing to give up. If it comes down to Duggan vs. McCarthy we’re taking Duggan 100% of the time. Michigan has the physical advantage and they are the best team in the Big Ten, their winning won’t be a surprise but don’t count out the Horned Frogs.  In their pitstops, Jordan talks about the success of Garrett Wilson and Chris Olave in their rookie seasons. In the NFL, it is rare for rookie wide receivers to eclipse 1,000 receiving yards. Barring injury, both players will reach 1k yards and one will most likely win offensive rookie of the year. Dante complains about the NBA games played on Christmas. The games were far from interesting this year with player injuries and blowouts.  Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

We start the show discussing our initial thoughts on the 20-person class and why the response to the class might be disingenuous They discuss their favorite players in the class and the guys they think can be immediate difference makers. Then we get into a talk about Ohio State’s quarterback room after signing day and discuss the personality they have gotten in three straight classes. This obviously divulges into a situation of talking about the next starter and why the three psychopath competitors in the room will have to earn it. Next, we look at the impact of NIL on the recruiting cycle and how some teams over performed with some late flips. In this discussion we talk about different recruiting strategies and why you shouldn’t be mad at another program for using money. We turn this to a discussion about the confidence we have in Ohio State’s current collectives to get the job done when it comes to recruiting. Then, to close out the show, we get into a lengthy discussion about the weakest links in this recruiting class positionally, and our final thoughts on the class.

Ohio State (8-3, 1-0) played Maine Wednesday night at the Schott, but to call it a basketball “game” may be stretching the definition of competition. The Buckeyes led for 38:30 of the game, led by 21 at halftime, and never looked back. After the game, freshmen Felix Okpara and Brice Sensabaugh spoke to the media. Okpara talked about his role on the team and what he planned on doing for the next four days on break. Sensabaugh discussed Wednesday’s game as well as the North Carolina game, saying that watching film of E.J. Liddell and Malaki Branham has helped his mid-range game. Then, Holtmann spoke about Wednesday’s game briefly and was also asked — again — about the decision not to guard the ball on the final play against North Carolina. He also talked about how important it was to not look past Maine considering all of the upsets in college basketball over the past 48 hours.

]]> 1555 LGHL Uncut: San Diego Invitational Special with media from both games (12/22) https://www.landgrantholyland.com Throughout the year, Land-Grant Holy Land will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. The Ohio State Buckeyes are champions of the San Diego Invitational. What’s even more important than that “trophy” is the way the Scarlet & Gray won it. This episode of Uncut features a two-for-one special with post-game press conferences from both games in one spot. Up first is head coach Kevin McGuff and forwards Cotie McMahon and Taylor Thierry discussing the win against the USF Bulls. Ohio State needed overtime to beat the Bulls and after the game coach McGuff describes what went wrong, a tough shooting performance by two of the team’s top scorers and the impact of guard Madison Greene going down for injury. Following coach, McMahon and Thierry talk about the win, the mentality to come back from down six with less than a minute left in overtime. Also, setting up a game against the No. 16 Oregon Ducks and what it means to play for their teammate Taylor Mikesell. After the second interview is audio from the big win against those Ducks. McGuff starts things off talking about Mikesell beating her former team, rebounding from a tough third quarter and the ability of guard Rikki Harris to step in for Greene on such short notice. Mikesell follows McGuff to talk about the feelings she had seeing Oregon on the schedule at the beginning of the season, the play of Harris and what the team focused on heading into the last quarter after a 7.7% shooting quarter in the third.

]]> 3745 I-70 Football Podcast: RIP Mike Leach + Bowl previews Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. Welcome back to another episode of the I-70 football podcast. In this episode, Jordan and Dante take a moment to reflect on Mike Leach’s passing and the legacy he left in college football. Leach was one of the founding fathers of the air raid offense that changed college football forever. He has a coaching tree that will rival anyone in the sport, spanning multiple levels of college football and the NFL. We’re sending thoughts and prayers to his family, friends, and players.  In their not so quick, quick hitters the guys explain their thoughts on NIL and if it is ruining college football. Jordan thinks fans are driving themselves crazy by contributing every occurrence to NIL, players commit, decommit, and transfer all the time, including before NIL funds were available. Obviously, some decisions are made based on NIL but not as much as people think. Dante thinks people shouldn’t be worried about what players are making or if NIL is the reason behind the player movement, no one questions when coaches leave for more money so why question the players?  The Big Ten has nine teams playing in bowl games and the guys take a look at the non-playoff matchups. Utah vs. Penn State in the Rose Bowl is easily the best of the group, and one of the best matchups in general. Penn State hasn’t been to the rose bowl since 2016 and would love nothing more than to beat Utah, while the Utes hope to win their first rose bowl in program history after losing to Ohio State last year. Dante is intrigued by the LSU vs. Purdue matchup while Jordan is paying close attention to the two matchups between the Big Ten and ACC.  In their weekly pitstops, Dante wishes his brother a Happy 18th Birthday. Jordan celebrates the release of Ab-Soul’s new album after a six-year hiatus. In the build-up to the album release Ab-Soul discusses his suicide attempt and recovery, we know the holidays can be tough for people. Please reach out to your friends and family, you never know what that can mean for someone. If you are having suicidal ideations please call the National Suicide Hotline by dialing 988 or connect with someone you love.

The Ohio State Buckeyes women’s basketball team looked like they had a good night considering the 82-57 scoreline, but it was closer than it appears. Head coach Kevin McGuff and the Buckeyes struggled in the first half, allowing a rare visitor lead against a smaller non-conference opponent. After the game, McGuff, forward Cotie McMahon and guard Madison Greene dissect that first half and what changed to propel Ohio State in the second. Up first is McGuff. He discusses the unique half court challenge created by UAlbany’s Princeton offense, who he calls “the most exciting 10 seconds in women’s basketball,” among other areas of the win. McMahon talks about what changed for her Friday, after a career high 24 points against the Great Danes. Also, looking at the defensive performance of Ohio State overall and how she feels now after taking a big fall late in the game, on defense. Last up is Greene. The guard who hit a season high with six steals talked about changing her offensive focus in the second half, listening to teammate’s feedback and adjusting defensively after an upset coach McGuff prepared the Buckeyes in the halftime locker room. That and more in the latest LGHL Uncut, the last edition before Ohio State travels west, to San Diego, California for the San Diego Invitational.

]]> 2119 Buck Off Podcast: Ohio State’s NIL issues, coach promotions, and other news around the program https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I’m joined by Jordan Williams to discuss Ohio State’s biggest stories from the week and get into why Ohio State is not dead because their NIL Foundation. We start the show with a long discussion about what Keenan Bailey’s promotion means for the offensive coaching staff. This conversation gets into the offensive coordinator vacancy and the likely internal promotion. We also talk about how the coaching profession is not the easiest to navigate for anyone involved. Then we get into a talk about Ohio State’s NIL “issues” and why they are overblown. We talk about the teams who have shelled out money and why when Ohio State loses a recruit to Georgia – or similar programs – it might not be entirely because of money. This also leads to discussing how Ohio State is just operating differently. Next, we look at the recruiting momentum on the trail starting with Ohio State’s 2023 quarterback. Brian Hartline also landed another five star which might not be classified as newsworthy at this point. Then, to close out the show, we get into some other news starting with the Treveyon Henderson injury impact. After that we discuss transfer targets, All-Americans, and Todd McShay being incredibly bad at his job.

The Ohio State Buckeyes women's basketball team played their first home Big Ten conference game of the season. On the schedule was the Michigan State Spartans, a team the Buckeyes beat three times in their 2021/22 conference regular season co-championship season. Following the Buckeyes' closest win of the season, a six-point win over Sparty, head coach Kevin McGuff, forward/guard Taylor Thierry and guard Taylor Mikesell stepped in front of the media to talk about the win. Coach McGuff discussed what he saw going poorly for the Buckeyes, and how having a close game earlier in the season can help the team in the long-run. Also, he provides an update on guard Jacy Sheldon, who missed the previous two games before taking to the bench again, this time in a home Big Ten game. Next up is Thierry. The forward/guard flex player hit a career high with 21 points and talked about that career day. Last up is Mikesell. Although Ohio State struggled shooting overall, Mikesell talks about what coach McGuff called her "nerves of steel" to hit four late free throws to ice the game for Ohio State. Also, learning lessons in a win when they don't play their best, citing how much of the season is left to go.

]]> 662 Silver Bullets Podcast: Ohio State Awards and B1G Bowls With a couple of weeks left before Ohio State takes on Georgia in the College Football Playoff, there is a lot of activity throughout college football, particularly when it comes to transfer portal news, recruiting, and (of course) awards season. This week’s discussion begins with a little OSU coaching news but then we quickly pivot into a discussion about Ohio State All-American selections, C.J. Stroud’s finish in the Heisman Trophy race, invitations to postseason all-star games, and the like. Marvin Harrison Jr. is getting some much deserved love on the postseason All-America lists even if he was a snub for two trophies — one he should have won and one for which he should have at least been in the conversation, according to one of our hosts. Meanwhile, there’s also some love for Ohio State’s offensive line but not as much as there probably should be for linebacker Tommy Eichenberg. After our conversation about the coaching staff and Buckeye honors, we dove into our walk through the other Big Ten bowl games. There’s a lot of uncertainty these days with bowl season. When you factor in coaching changes, opt-outs, and the transfer portal, it’s hard to even begin to dissect how a game might unfold. Those aren’t the only factors that make bowl season less desirable than it once was. What’s up with the names of these games? You could at least figure out the line of business of most of the sponsors in the past, but good luck with it in this group of bowls. We went game by game, chronologically, to talk about each match-up as best we could. We also touched on the news of Mississippi State coach Mike Leach’s health and the impact that could have on the ReliaQuest Bowl against Illinois. By the time this podcast reaches you, things could have changed, as there was still a lot of uncertainty as the time we sat down to record this show. We’ll be off next week, returning Dec. 27 to preview the big match-up with the Georgia Bulldogs in the Peach Bowl.

The break is filled with awards as every conference and major media outlet announces their post-season awards. In this episode, Dante and Jordan discuss the various awards and All-American honors bestowed upon the best players in the Big Ten.  Before the awards conversation, the guys discuss the major news in the Big Ten including updates on the coaching carousel. New Wisconsin coach Luke Fickell will have to hit the transfer portal for his future quarterback as current Wisconsin quarterback Graham Mertz entered his name into the portal. He may not struggle to find one after he hired Phil Longo, former University of North Carolina offensive coordinator, to the same role. Purdue needs a new coach as Jeff Brohm has been hired at his alma mater, Louisville with a seven-year $36 million contract. Lastly, Ohio State needs a new offensive coordinator as Kevin Wilson accepted a head coaching position at Tulsa. The expectation is they will hire from within, Keenan Bailey has already been announced as the tight ends coach.  The Big Ten announced its postseason awards and all-conference teams. The guys have no issues with most of the award recipients but Jordan does not agree with Jack Campbell as the Big Ten linebacker of the year or defensive player of the year. Ohio State’s Tommy Eichenberg finished with five fewer tackles but had 19 more solo tackles and more sacks and tackles for loss. Jack Campbell came into the season with a well known name but Tommy had the better season and should be honored instead.  The Big Ten was full of talented players this year leading the country in All-American honors. The Big Ten has 13 players voted to one of the All-American teams with a few more left to be announced. Blake Corum, Marvin Harrison Jr., Paris Johnson Jr., Olu Oluwatimi, Peter Skoronski, Jack Campbell, and Devon Witherspoon are all in line for consensus or unanimous All-American honors. In their pitstops, Jordan admits to his college football addiction as he is dealing with withdrawal and trying to remember what he likes outside of college football. Dante is ready for the holiday season to end so he can stop driving all over Ohio to see friends and family.  Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 3324 LGHL Uncut: Buckeye Discuss Rutgers Buzzer-Beating Hysteria https://www.landgrantholyland.com Throughout the season, Land-Grant Holy Land will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. Well, if you missed Tanner Holden’s last-second buzzer-beating three-pointer at the Schottenstein Center Thursday night, I apologize. After 39 minutes and 55 seconds of agonizing, back-and-forth battling between two physical Big Ten teams, it was one shot that mattered, and that shot was a blind heave from Holden that won the Buckeyes the game, 67-66. After the game, the man of the hour spoke with the media, as well as Zed Key who set a career-high with 22 points, and head coach Chris Holtmann. The Buckeyes blew an 11-point first-half lead and trailed with five seconds remaining as well, but were able to pull it out right at the horn. Holden spoke first, letting everyone know that he actually couldn’t see the basket when he shot the ball, nor could he see if it went in — he knew when the crowd let him know. Key said it was even crazier than his game-winner against Akron last season. Holtmann spent as much time talking about point guard Bruce Thornton as he did Holden afterward, praising some of the plays Thornton made during the “guts” of the game. He also said Holden was subbed into the game with five seconds left because they were anticipating him needing to inbound the ball full court.

We start the show with a long discussion about our initial thoughts surrounding Ohio State’s Peach Bowl matchup. In this conversation we get into some key stats for the Buckeyes and how they compare to Georgia. Then we discuss how the cultures of the programs will have just as much an impact as the gameplans starting with the margins. Then we get into a conversation about Ohio State offensive coordinator Kevin Wilson moving on from the program. We get into the opportunity this provides for coaches in house, but our real conversation dive into some outside options. This discussion leads to a talk about why sometimes the outside isn’t always bad. Next, we get into the Jaxon Smith-Njigba situations. This topic gets into the common theme of fans disregarding players being people. Then we talk about how opportunistic “journalists” take irresponsible approaches to stories like this for the audience to swallow.

The Ohio State women's basketball team played an early, 11:00 a.m. ET, basketball game on Thursday against the University of New Hampshire. In a crowd full of up to 4,000 elementary-aged kids celebrating good school attendance, the Buckeyes played a lethargic first half and record-tying second half in a 92-36 win over the Wildcats. After the game, after the hours of screaming subsided and kids returned to school, head coach Kevin McGuff and forwards Taylor Thierry and Cotie McMahon spoke about the win. Thierry discussed the play of her teammate McMahon, adjustments the players had to make at halftime and how the Buckeyes reacted to the release of Brittney Griner from Russian imprisonment. McMahon went into detail about what it means to play in front of kids, and how it can motivate them to play the game themselves. Also, her thoughts on Thierry's game and the big turnaround the team made to hold the Wildcats to seven second half points. Coach McGuff gave insight into what he said in the locker room to his team, the record-tying defensive effort in the second half and his feelings about the Griner release.

On Monday, the Ohio State Buckeyes women's basketball team achieved their highest ranking in the AP Poll since Nov. 2010. Beginning the year at No. 14, the Buckeyes won their first eight games, including wins against the then No. 5 ranked Tennessee Volunteers and then No. 18 ranked Louisville Cardinals. Following the new position in the rankings, head coach Kevin McGuff and guards Rikki Harris and Madison Greene spoke with the media. Coach McGuff largely dismissed the rankings, since he hasn't been able to watch the other teams around the Buckeyes in the rankings, caring more about what their ranking will be at the end of the season. He also discusses what he's seen change in guard Madison Greene after becoming a bench player and next guard up starter for injured guard Jacy Sheldon. Also, McGuff discusses what he's seen so far around the Big Ten, touting it as the deepest its ever been. He also named a team who's surprised him the most in conference results this season. Harris and Greene interviewed together, taking on questions about the No. 3 ranking, the growth of forward Rebeka Mikulášiková over, mental health and what they've noticed change about coach McGuff in their four years at Ohio State. That and more as the Buckeyes gear up for two games this week. On Thursday, they begin with an early 11:00 a.m. ET start against the University of New Hampshire before returning to Big Ten play on Sunday, when they welcome the Michigan State Spartans to the Schottenstein Center.

Beginning the year at No. 14, the Buckeyes won their first eight games, including wins against the then No. 5 ranked Tennessee Volunteers and then No. 18 ranked Louisville Cardinals.

Following the new position in the rankings, head coach Kevin McGuff and guards Rikki Harris and Madison Greene spoke with the media.

Coach McGuff largely dismissed the rankings, since he hasn't been able to watch the other teams around the Buckeyes in the rankings, caring more about what their ranking will be at the end of the season. He also discusses what he's seen change in guard Madison Greene after becoming a bench player and next guard up starter for injured guard Jacy Sheldon.

Also, McGuff discusses what he's seen so far around the Big Ten, touting it as the deepest its ever been. He also named a team who's surprised him the most in conference results this season.

Harris and Greene interviewed together, taking on questions about the No. 3 ranking, the growth of forward Rebeka Mikulášiková over, mental health and what they've noticed change about coach McGuff in their four years at Ohio State.

That and more as the Buckeyes gear up for two games this week. On Thursday, they begin with an early 11:00 a.m. ET start against the University of New Hampshire before returning to Big Ten play on Sunday, when they welcome the Michigan State Spartans to the Schottenstein Center.

On this episode of "Land-Grant Holy Land In Conversation," LGHL's Matt Tamanini and Josh Dooley -- one of the co-hosts from LGHL's flagship podcast "Hangout in the Holy Land" -- discuss what is next for Ryan Day at the Buckeyes at the offensive coordinator position. With Kevin Wilson being officially named as the new head coach at Tulsa, Day will have a big decision to make sooner rather than later. Will he turn over play calling to his new hire? Will he promote from within or find the best candidate on the open market? Will he find someone with a similar philosophy and pedigree, or will he look for a coach who brings something new to the offense? With the football early signing period coming up on Dec. 21, it might behoove Day to move quickly and find his next OC, but with College Football Playoff prep, is that really feasible?

]]> 2225 Silver Bullets Podcast: A Playoff Berth and Lots of OSU News What a difference a week makes. On our last show, we spent a good deal of time venting about Ohio State’s loss to Michigan, criticizing the decisions we thought led to it, and thinking that all that remained in the season was a meaningless exhibition game in which a bunch of starters sat out to focus on the 2023 NFL Draft. But all of that changed on Friday when USC got pounded by Utah and led to Sunday’s announcement that the Buckeyes are going to the College Football Playoff to face Georgia in the Peach Bowl on New Year’s Eve. On this week’s show, we discussed the emotional sea change from last week to this and discuss the games that ended up falling the Buckeyes’ way. We also touched on the whining we saw on social media from supposedly neutral national college football pundits and how ultimately the committee picked the four teams that made the most sense. The game against Georgia is anything but a reward for Ohio State as the Bulldogs have looked like the cream of the crop all season. But David can’t slay Goliath without any stones for his sling and now Ohio State has one. We’ll find out how they use that stone on Dec. 31. The big question on everyone’s mind once the Buckeyes were in was whether Jaxon Smith-Njigba would be healthy and on the field for the playoff. That is not the case and we discussed both JSN’s public statement, in which he clearly mentions consulting with his doctors, and what was an ugly reaction from many who either somehow know more about his medical file than he does, or else they just like questioning the character of people they don’t know. Either way, it was gross. Ohio State’s coaching staff will have some changes either before or shortly after the College Football Playoff, with the news that (as of this writing) Kevin Wilson is all but officially announced as the next head coach at Tulsa. Will he stay at Ohio State through the playoff or focus on trying to keep Tulsa’s recruiting class together between now and then? What’s best for the Buckeyes? Who will the next offensive coordinator be and how does Ryan Day’s insistence on controlling the play calling affect that? These are the questions we wrestled with this week. C.J. Stroud is a Heisman Trophy finalist and we discussed his season as well as the other contenders to make some sense of what will happen at the Downtown Athletic Club. Finally, some transfer portal news that is OSU-related came out on a crazy day that saw hundreds of athletes enter in search of greener pastures. How much of it was NIL-driven and how much is it just guys trying to find a better situation? Either way, that’s a lot of names and several of them are multi-year starting quarterbacks. We’ll be back next week to talk about whatever news comes out of what is sure to be an interesting December. We’ll be getting ready for the Georgia showdown and taking a look at the other B1G bowl match-ups as well.

]]> 1891 I-70 Football Podcast: Two B1G teams in the College Football Playoffs Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. The Michigan Wolverines are your 2022 Big Ten Champions. Under Jim Harbaugh's leadership, Michigan has won back-to-back Big Ten championships for the first time in over two decades. Michigan will now turn its sights to winning a national championship for the first time since 1985. Michigan, the no. 2 seed, is joined in the playoffs by bitter rival Ohio State who claimed the no. 4 seed after USC lost to Utah in the Pac 12 championship game. Michigan will face no. 3 TCU in the Fiesta Bowl while Ohio State travels to Atlanta to face Georgia in the Peach bowl.  In this episode of the I-70 football show, the guys discuss the importance of having two teams in the playoffs, which has only ever been done by the SEC. Collectively this was a down year for the Big Ten with only three teams ranked in the final top 25 but it was top-heavy as Penn State finished no.11 and will take on Utah in the Rose Bowl. Overall nine Big Ten teams reached a bowl game as Illinois, Iowa, Maryland, Minnesota, Purdue and Wisconsin joined the other three in the postseason.  The guys get into their favorite matchups for bowl season and what a 12-team playoff would look like today. Dante and Jordan also discussed some of the recent news in the Big Ten such as Jim Leonhard staying on at Wisconsin while former Michigan quarterback Cade McNamara is transferring to Iowa. Lastly, Jordan won the picks competition with a final record of 82-24 as Dante ended in a close second with a 79-27 overall record.  Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 2496 LGHL Uncut: Holtmann, Okpara, Holden discuss Ohio State’s win over St. Francis https://www.landgrantholyland.com Throughout the season, Land-Grant Holy Land will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. If you missed Saturday’s game between the No. 25 Ohio State Buckeyes and the St. Francis Red Flash, that’s okay, we don’t blame you. Not even 72 hours after the Duke game and amidst all kind of college football hysteria, even I nearly forgot the Buckeyes had a noon tipoff against one of the statistically worst teams in the nation. The Buckeyes didn’t light the world on fire during the first half, carrying just an eight-point lead into halftime. But they outscored St. Francis 52-23 in the second half en route to a 96-59 win Saturday afternoon in Columbus. Felix Okpara, who set career highs in points, rebounds, and steals, as well as scoring his first career double-double, spoke with the media about knocking down his first career three-pointer as well as what he thinks he brings to the team coming off the bench behind Zed Key. Tanner Holden discussed the team’s defensive ceiling, as well as his adjustment from the Horizon League to the Big Ten. Holtmann discussed the stark turnaround between halves, crediting the change to better effort on the defensive end. He also spoke about Okpara’s big day, and how important it will be for Brice Sensabaugh to not let struggles on the offensive end carry over to the defensive end and vice versa.

If you somehow missed it, the No. 25 Ohio State Buckeyes traveled to Durham, North Carolina Wednesday night to tangle with the No. 17 Duke Blue Devils and were defeated, 81-72. Ohio State turned the ball over 16 times, and a crucial stretch at the end of the first half allowed Duke to turn a close game into a 10-point lead at halftime. After the game, head coach Chris Holtmann spoke to the media about the reasons his team fell behind. He said there were a lot of “dumb” fouls and that Duke’s size “threw them off their rhythm” leading to only six team assists. Captains Justice Sueing and Zed Key then met with the Ohio State media outside of the Buckeyes’ locker room. Sueing said that many of the Buckeyes’ mistakes are “correctable” and that he knows he’ll face teams similar to Duke this season, so he needs to adjust and not get in foul trouble again like he did against the Blue Devils.

The Ohio State Buckeyes women’s basketball team played their second ranked opponent of the season. Like the first against the then No. 5 Tennessee Volunteers, it was a game where the first half gave no intention of Ohio State winning. Then a second half led to an ending of a double-digit 96-77 dominating win over perennial college basketball power in the Louisville Cardinals. Following the win, guards Jacy Sheldon and Rikki Harris talked about the game, before head coach Kevin McGuff. Sheldon discussed the biggest factor in the Buckeyes win, who was sitting right next to the guard during the media availability. Also, playing in front of a raucous crowd of Cardinal fans and how her lower leg injury feels after missing the last two games against Wright State and the University of North Alabama. Harris, who sounds as sick as she was, talks about playing even though she couldn’t breathe, and not expecting to get as many minutes as she did. Plus, how her teammates lifted her performance, where this game ranks in her all-time games as a Buckeye and feeding off the Louisville crowd. Coach McGuff then talks about how he leveraged experience to turn the game around, what Harris means to this Ohio State team and why freshman forward Cotie McMahon didn’t play as many minutes as she has to start the season.

Johnson's entire story falls back to hard work, but that's not all a player can do in order to become successful. She shares what that extra piece of the puzzle is for aspiring pro women's basketball players.

Finally, Johnson discusses how she's still a Buckeye, even though she's working for her hometown university. Coach shares her thoughts about Ohio State head coach Kevin McGuff, rooting for the Buckeyes unless they're playing Louisville and even some thoughts on the Ohio State game against TTUN.

There's also a companion story about the Adrienne Johnson you can read now, by clicking this link.

On this week’s episode, Connor and Justin are joined by Fox Sports college basketball personality Tate Frazier to preview the Big Ten-ACC Challenge battle between No. 25 Ohio State and No. 17 Duke. Tate, who co-hosts the Titus and Tate Podcast and is a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, brings a unique perspective to Duke basketball. Should Tate be hitting the panic button on his North Carolina Tar Heels, or should Duke fans be reaching for that same button? We discussed both with Tate, as well as what Chris Holtmann’s strategy should be walking into Cameron Indoor against the No. 1 offensive rebounding team in the country. Tate also tells everyone his thoughts on Coach K./ Mr. K’s absence from the Duke men’s basketball program, and his decision to keep his sixth-floor office rather than handing it off to the new coach, Jon Scheyer.

]]> 2312 LGHL Uncut: Holtmann, Buckeyes preview Big Ten-ACC Challenge vs. Duke https://www.landgrantholyland.com Throughout the year, Land-Grant Holy Land will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. The now-ranked No. 25 Ohio State Buckeyes are flying to Durham on Wednesday to face the No. 17 Duke Blue Devils in a rematch of last season's Big Ten-ACC Challenge that was played in Columbus. Exactly one year ago to the day, the top-ranked Blue Devils held a 13-point lead at halftime but faltered in the second half, losing to E.J. Liddell, Zed Key, and the gang, 71-66. The students rushed the court in a frenzy as Coach K went out a loser in his final B1G-ACC challenge game. The rosters are drastically different and Duke has a new coach in Jon Scheyer, but the two teams are facing off again tomorrow night, except this time the showdown is in Durham. On Tuesday afternoon, freshman guard Bruce Thornton, senior guard Sean McNeil, and head coach Chris Holtmann met with the media to preview the matchup. Thornton and McNeil spent a considerable amount of time discussing Duke’s size and elite rebounding, but both players expressed confidence in their chances of winning this tough road game. Holtmann also gave Scheyer and the Blue Devils copious amounts of credit for their performance to this point, and said that Duke’s rebounding is a huge concern for his team.

]]> 2045 Silver Bullets Podcast: Michigan Rewind and a Whole Lot of Venting Well, that was awful. Ohio State’s repeated self-inflicted breakdowns on Saturday were so horrifying and egregious that it’s a true testament to us as podcasting “professionals” that this entire episode doesn’t just consist of a single, four-letter word repeated ad nauseum. We had a job to do, so instead of cursing, we’re breaking down Ohio State’s unacceptable and maddening 45-23 home loss to Michigan. A lot of things went wrong in one game that have been going wrong periodically all season. Unfortunately, it was the biggest game of the year, on the biggest stage, and it is likely going to keep the Buckeyes out of the College Football Playoff. The penalties, the coverage busts, the inexplicable coaching decisions and even more ineffective wide receiver screens were on the menu on Saturday and we all collectively choked on that meal in the exact same manner as Ryan Day choked in The Game (again). Does that sound harsh? Because I can make it harsher if you want. We didn’t much bother with our score predictions or picks to click because [/gestures broadly at Saturday’s result]. After the game discussion, we talked about what might be next for the Buckeyes, and one of those things is actually still a good thing. The lustre of the “regular” bowl games is long gone now, and the teams that take the field for them often do so without multiple star players in the age of the opt-out, but that’s just how it goes. Beyond that, there were some other games around the Big Ten this past weekend, even if we cared far less about them. We walked through the rest of the results in the conference to see how everyone else made out. The music finally stopped in the B1G West’s season-long game of musical chairs and we’re not sure if Purdue won or lost, as seemingly every team with the inside track on the division melted down when in the driver’s seat. Someone had to win it this weekend and Iowa politely declined. We also discussed the resignation of Ohio State’s now-former president, Kristina M. Johnson, and did some far-too-early pontificating about some potential candidates to replace her. We also opined on the new coaching hires at Nebraska and Wisconsin, with both schools seemingly finding exactly the right fit. Of course, that’s what Scott Frost and Jim Leonhard were supposed to be, so you never really can tell. And finally, we answered listener mail (OK, it was a tweet in this case). We’ll be back next week to talk about whatever’s next for Ohio State, as well as any additional news that may drop, such as bowl game opt-outs, coaching changes, or key players entering the transfer portal from around the B1G.

]]> 5002 I-70 Football Podcast: Michigan runs the B1G + Coaching Hires Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. Throughout history, all dynasties have fallen. In many cases, they were defeated in battle by the next up-and-coming dynasty after they grew old, fat, and complacent. Ohio State was that dynasty and has been dethroned by its arch-nemesis, the Michigan Wolverines. Jim Harbaugh led his team to Columbus with an 11-0 record, buoyed by getting the monkey off their back last season winning The Game for the first time since 2011. One win can be considered a fluke, and two wins are far from it, but Harbaugh and his players secured a second win beating Ohio State 45-23 despite all the talk from Columbus about toughness, revenge, and dedication for 365 with a sole focus on winning this game. Michigan is the best team in the conference for the first time in two decades while Ohio State is left licking its wounds…. Again.  Nebraska, under interim head coach Mickey Joseph for the final time, upset Iowa 24-17 ruining their bid to win the West division in back-to-back seasons. This season has not gone well for the Cornhuskers and there is a lot of change on the horizon but playing spoiler to Iowa is a great way to end the season. Iowa’s loss allowed Purdue to win the Big Ten West for the first time in program history. Purdue season did not go as planned but Aidan O’Connell battled through multiple injuries and late-game defensive collapse, willing the Boilermakers to Indianapolis.  Over the weekend news broke that Nebraska offered the head coaching job to Matt Rhule, former coach of the Carolina Panthers. Rhule is a tremendous hire for the Cornhuskers as he has successfully turned around Temple and Baylor and has a proven track record as a college head coach.  Many of us expected the Wisconsin job to be handed to defensive coordinator and interim head coach Jim Leonhard after Paul Chryst was let go. The Badgers limped their way across the finish line without Leonhard securing the job. Instead, Wisconsin pulled off the impossible, for a non-Ohio State program, hiring Luke Fickell away from Cincinnati to be their next head coach. The Big Ten is changing rapidly and the hires by Nebraska and Wisconsin represent a changing of the guard as the Big Ten is set to expand and eliminate divisions.  Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

McMahon talked about adjustments the team needed to make against North Alabama guard/forward Skyler Gill and reacting to the drama surrounding the Las Vegas Invitational and the Indiana Hoosier’s experience. Plus, McMahon’s views about fans who don’t take women’s basketball seriously. Following the players, head coach Kevin McGuff discussed the same issues playing North Alabama early, adjustments the team made, the big play of freshman McMahon, reaching personal NCAA best 20 points and an updated status on injured starting guard Jacy Sheldon.

On this week’s episode, Connor and Justin recap a successful Maui Invitational for the Ohio State men’s basketball team that saw them win two games and stay competitive in the third. After losing to No. 17 San Diego State by 11 on the first night, the Buckeyes blew out the Cincinnati Bearcats and followed that up with a wire-to-wire win over the No. 21 Texas Tech Red Raiders. Was 2-1 the best possible outcome? Clearly not, because Chris Holtmann’s team is not bringing home a trophy. But the Buckeyes went up against two top-10 defenses on the island and had arguably their three most impressive showings overall. Throwing the four freshmen out to the wolves against an experienced San Diego State team will pay dividends down the line. Adding a win over a ranked team to your resume will help boost their resume come tournament time. Truly, there’s not a whole lot more you can ask for — aside from winning it all.

]]> 2654 Silver Bullets Podcast: Maryland Rewind and Michigan Preview Ohio State’s win at Maryland was a bit stressful but in the end the Buckeyes did enough to get the job done on a day when other favored teams needed late scores to win or didn’t survive at all. We dive into all the good and bad of Ohio State’s 43-30 win in College Park and hopefully the team will be a lot more focused and amped up for an iteration of The Game between a pair of unbeaten, top-five teams. We look back at our picks to click and our score predictions to see how reality stacked up against our imaginations, too. After the Maryland talk, we welcomed in David Woelkers from SBNation site Maize N Brew to get us prepped on the Wolverines prior to their trip to the Horseshoe this Saturday. David gave us the scoop on what’s up with Michigan but no one seems sure what to make of Blake Corum’s knee injury at this point. That is an important knee for the Wolverines. Big thanks to David for stopping by and helping us preview The Game. We took our weekly walk through the rest of the Big Ten results from Saturday and the West finally came into a little more focus with one weekend remaining. Meanwhile, Penn State has quietly rolled through everyone not named Ohio State or Michigan and the Spartans almost certainly threw away their shot at bowl eligibility in the second half and overtime against Indiana at home. Finally, we discussed the importance that Steele Chambers has in stopping J.J. McCarthy in the run game on Saturday and we dove into Michigan’s stats a bit before making our predictions and picks to click for this weekend’s battle of the titans in Columbus. We’ll be back next week to talk about Ohio State’s matchup with the Wolverines and to preview...well, whatever’s next, which we won’t know until after the game. It’s a little strange not having that next opponent set, but that’s what the end of the regular season brings.

From the jump of Sunday's home game for the Ohio State Buckeyes women's basketball team, it was a game destined for a Scarlet & Gray victory.

During a special bonus episode of the Bucketheads Podcast, the guys begin by giving their thoughts on the Buckeyes’ closer-than-expected victory over Eastern Illinois last week. Is there reason to worry, or was it good that this team faced a little bit of adversity before heading to Maui? Then, they talk about the San Diego State Aztecs and break down what makes them such a tough opponent for this particular Ohio State team. Can a Buckeye squad that’s currently turning the ball over 15 times per game take care of the rock against an SDSU team that’s averaging 12 steals per game? To close the episode, FOX Sports’ John Fanta — a Cleveland native and a Big East man through and through — joins the show to talk about the entire Maui field and what it takes to win three games in three days.

Guard Jacy Sheldon talks about the team's defensive focus in the game and how up and down the roster there were defensive plays throughout the evening. Also, how Taylor Thierry's offensive rebounding was key in the win and how the team is trying to make her more confident to see Thierry get to the next level.

Also, head coach Kevin McGuff gives credit to the Ohio University Bobcats defense but shares where the team needs to improve. McGuff also discusses his substitution plan in the third and fourth quarter and more.

Following Ohio State’s grindy, mucky, 65-43 win over Eastern Illinois on Wednesday night, Isaac Likekele, Brice Sensabaugh, and head coach Chris Holtmann spoke to the media about the win as well as the Maui Invitational. Likekele and Sensabaugh began, with Likekele giving credit to Eastern Illinois. He reminded everyone that despite rankings, they’re “Still division-I athletes” and a “talented squad.” Likekele talked about the halftime mood when Ohio State was only up three points, and what Holtmann told them during their break. Sensabaugh was asked about his career-high 20 points and how he has adjusted from game one to game three. Holtmann spoke last, and — like Ice — gave credit to Eastern Illinois. He said he didn’t see the effort he wanted to see from some of his older players in the first half, and made it clear he won’t be afraid to make mass substitutions quickly if it happens again. He also spent some time talking about Maui — specifically, San Diego State. Connect with Connor: Twitter: @lemons_connor Theme music provided by www.bensound.com  Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 3657 Silver Bullets Podcast: Indiana Rewind and Maryland Preview After a sluggish and sloppy performance against Northwestern, the Ohio State Buckeyes returned home looking to get healthy against a struggling Indiana Hoosiers team. However, “healthy” just doesn’t seem to be in the cards for the Buckeyes this year, as Chip Trayanum and Dawand Jones were held out and Miyan Williams got hurt during Saturday’s contest. Nevertheless, the team did return to form, dismantling the Hoosiers in a 56-14 win. Williams, Dallan Hayden, C.J. Stroud, Marvin Harrison Jr., and Xavier Johnson starred offensively, while Steele Chambers, Lathan Ransom, and Tommy Eichenberg shone on the other side of the ball. Still, it was Kamryn Babb that stole our hearts and made our living rooms suddenly dusty with his first career reception/touchdown, capping the day’s scoring. We talk at great length about the game, check in our score predictions, and look back at the individual performances to see if our picks clicked on offense and defense. Prompted by listener mail, we discuss the looming Michigan matchup a week in advance and then took our weekly walk through the rest of the Big Ten football results. Nobody wants to win the B1G West (still), as the Fighting Illini allowed the pack to catch up and now it looks like it’ll be a mad scramble over the remaining two weekends. Also: is Graham Mertz bad or did Wisconsin make him bad? Finally, we previewed this weekend’s game against Maryland. The Terrapins started the season brightly but seem to have hit a bit of a wall in recent weeks. Still, the Terps have been hard to beat at home and Ohio State has to keep its focus on the turtles in order to avoid the trap being laid before next week’s showdown. We’ll be back next week to talk about Ohio State’s matchup with the Maryland Terrapins in College Park, and to preview the following week’s return home when the Buckeyes will look for revenge against their rivals from that state up north.

]]> 5157 I-70 Football Podcast: A slightly less critical cross-divisional showdown Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. It is time! Michigan faces Illinois in the showdown Dante and I have been looking forward to for weeks. The stakes are not as high as Illinois is on a two-loss losing streak and may be without star running back Chase Brown but the game is still important. Coming off of two losses Illinois will be more motivated than ever to win this game as a loss will potentially cost them their West Division title that was firmly in their grasp. Michigan is 10-0 and looks like one of the best teams in the country. Like all the top four teams Michigan has flaws but no one has been able to take advantage of them or slow their running game. Illinois has one of the best defenses in the country and is playing for its season. Michigan has one of the best offenses in the country albeit very one-sided and must find a way not to look ahead to a top-three showdown with hated rival Ohio State.  Jim Leonhard has taken full advantage of his opportunity as interim head coach and will most likely be retained for the full-time job. If he is not, you can look at this Iowa loss as the reason why. Wisconsin wasted a great defensive performance which head Iowa to roughly 150 total yards and under four yards per play throughout the game. The defensive performance was for nothing as Iowa’s defense and special teams kept Iowa in the game by scoring on a pick-six and winning the field position battle. By beating Wisconsin and Illinois losing to Purdue, Iowa now controls its destiny in the West Division. With a win over Minnesota this week they could secure back-to-back trips to Indianapolis.  Ohio State steamrolled Indiana getting their running game back on track but the story of the weekend came from Kamryn Babb. Babb, a former four-star wide receiver in the 2018 recruiting class has suffered four ACL tears during his career and has not been able to contribute on the field. Babb, a team captain, and the current Block O recipient has affected his teammates positively off the field and has made a lasting impact. On Saturday, after working back from another injury, Babb finally had his moment catching an eight-yard touchdown for his first career catch and touchdown. The Buckeye sideline exploded with excitement, it was clear how much Babb means to the team and how important this moment was.  In their weekly pitstops, Dante celebrates the Steeler's victory. Sure it was over the New Orlean Saints but a win is a win in this tough season for the Steelers. Jordan celebrates Justin Fields' success. The Bears have finally developed an offense that suits Fields and his confidence is through the roof. He is proving himself to be a franchise quarterback, now all that's left is his continual growth and the Bears brass to build around him in the correct way.  Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

Michigan is 10-0 and looks like one of the best teams in the country. Like all the top four teams Michigan has flaws but no one has been able to take advantage of them or slow their running game. Illinois has one of the best defenses in the country and is playing for its season. Michigan has one of the best offenses in the country albeit very one-sided and must find a way not to look ahead to a top-three showdown with hated rival Ohio State. 

Jim Leonhard has taken full advantage of his opportunity as interim head coach and will most likely be retained for the full-time job. If he is not, you can look at this Iowa loss as the reason why. Wisconsin wasted a great defensive performance which head Iowa to roughly 150 total yards and under four yards per play throughout the game. The defensive performance was for nothing as Iowa’s defense and special teams kept Iowa in the game by scoring on a pick-six and winning the field position battle. By beating Wisconsin and Illinois losing to Purdue, Iowa now controls its destiny in the West Division. With a win over Minnesota this week they could secure back-to-back trips to Indianapolis. 

Ohio State steamrolled Indiana getting their running game back on track but the story of the weekend came from Kamryn Babb. Babb, a former four-star wide receiver in the 2018 recruiting class has suffered four ACL tears during his career and has not been able to contribute on the field. Babb, a team captain, and the current Block O recipient has affected his teammates positively off the field and has made a lasting impact. On Saturday, after working back from another injury, Babb finally had his moment catching an eight-yard touchdown for his first career catch and touchdown. The Buckeye sideline exploded with excitement, it was clear how much Babb means to the team and how important this moment was. 

In their weekly pitstops, Dante celebrates the Steeler's victory. Sure it was over the New Orlean Saints but a win is a win in this tough season for the Steelers. Jordan celebrates Justin Fields' success. The Bears have finally developed an offense that suits Fields and his confidence is through the roof. He is proving himself to be a franchise quarterback, now all that's left is his continual growth and the Bears brass to build around him in the correct way.

Key and Sensabaugh began, with Key discussing his big night. He had “no idea” that he had racked up a double-double in the first half alone. He also said that grabbing 13 rebounds over 21 minutes made him “pretty tired” but that he had to keep going. Sensabaugh discussed adjustments he made from game one to game two, and also noted that his team played much worse in the second half.

To get the show started, the guys open with a discussion about Indiana’s head coach Tom Allen – who seems like an awesome guy. In this discussion, the conversation is about Indiana’s program expectations and if they can be higher than what Allen has done. After that, the duo moves into the series between Indiana and Ohio State including just how lopsided this matchup has been. They discuss how lopsided the series has been and have trouble finding another comparable series between two Power-5 teams. This leads into some discussions about how Ohio State has looked recently and what they need to do to Indiana at home to build some momentum. Moving on from that, the show moves into expectations for the Buckeyes in this matchup given the circumstances surrounding the game. This conversation gets into the last three weeks, Stroud in bounce back situations, and the expectations for the defense coming into a normal week.

The Ohio State Buckeyes women's basketball team set a high bar when scheduling their season tip-off. Head coach Kevin McGuff and the Scarlet & Gray faced a No. 5 ranked Tennessee Volunteers side featuring three players who are in the conversation for Naismith Player of the Year. What happened was a game of two halves, with the Buckeyes trying to hang in with the SEC side in the first half, but going on an 18-point run in their 87-75 victory. After the game, guard Taylor Mikesell, forward Cotie McMahon and Coach McGuff spoke with the media. Uncut shares everything they said following the big win. Mikesell discusses how it was defense that kept the team in the game, and how special it felt having fan support culminating in students in attendance storming the court following the final buzzer. McMahon talks about getting over the nerves in her first NCAA game, the officiating she believes Ohio State receives and how the seniors and more experienced players worked with her to help make Tuesday's win possible. Also, McGuff discusses poor shooting, the defense that kept them in the game, the special talent of Jacy Sheldon's defense on the night and looking ahead to Boston College on Sunday.

]]> 1073 Silver Bullets Podcast: Northwestern Rewind and Indiana Preview While Ohio State’s 21-7 victory at Northwestern was one of the more aggravating wins by the Buckeyes in recent history, it was still a win. We can’t say we saw the game unfolding as it did, but then again when we recorded last week, we had no idea the game would be played in a hurricane. If we had known, we probably would still have predicted a lopsided win but perhaps with one or two fewer touchdowns. Instead, we witnessed a slog that didn’t seem to need to be one. Dropped passes, curious play calling, bad execution along the offensive line, and some uncharacteristic sponginess on third down and against the run by the defense combined to make Saturday a lot less easy on the nerves than what was forecast. We basically threw our predictions from last week in the garbage and only one of our four picks to click actually clicked and that was the “Bingo free space” that is Tommy Eichenberg, who seemingly always delivers. We discussed the major talking points from the game and talked through the scoring drives and stats as Ohio State escaped from Evanston (even if it never quite felt to us like the Wildcats were actually going to pull off the upset). Our weekly walk through the rest of the Big Ten results included a full slate of games and once again the B1G West is baffling. Does anyone truly want to win it? If so, it might be a suddenly resurgent Iowa team after Illinois dropped a home game to Sparty. Finally, we looked ahead to Saturday’s nooner with the Indiana Hoosiers. Will the Buckeyes struggle again or will Indiana feel the wrath of a team that has to read bad press about itself all week? We hope lessons have been learned and that health will return to some of Ohio State’s missing pieces, as the showdown with the Wolverines draws closer and chemistry and rhythm are things that should (optimally) start coming together now. At any rate, we took another shot at our final score predictions and made our picks to click on both offense and defense for the Buckeyes. We’ll be back next week to talk about Ohio State’s matchup with the Indiana Hoosiers in Columbus, and to preview the following week’s return to the road when the Buckeyes travel to Maryland to take on the Terrapins.

]]> 5363 LGHL Uncut: Holtmann, Sueing, Key discuss Ohio State men’s basketball opening-night win https://www.landgrantholyland.com Throughout the year, Land-Grant Holy Land will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. Following Ohio State’s 91-53 victory over Robert Morris Monday night, Chris Holtmann, Justice Sueing, and Zed Key spoke to the media about the win and what to expect moving forward. Sueing and Key started, and mainly kept to the theme of “any guy on any given night.” Key said that Ohio State has several guys who can “drop 20 any night”, giving the example of Tanner Holden scoring 25 in OSU’s exhibition, followed by Sueing’s 20 on Monday night. Sueing said that playing for the first time in nearly one full calendar year was emotional for him, but once he missed two free throws early on, the nerves pretty much rolled off. Holtmann followed and spent a good chunk of time talking about Sueing and the difference he makes on both ends of the floor. He referred to him as “one of the better rebounding wings in college basketball” and also said that “A lot of people probably forgot how good a player Justice is” after missing so much time. Holtmann also said that, despite the Buckeyes grabbing 48 rebounds for the first time since November of 2017 (the last time they played Robert Morris), his team still is not where they need to be rebounding the basketball.

]]> 1866 I-70 Football Podcast: Severe weather and shocking results Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. Welcome back to another episode of the I-70 football show. This past weekend was littered with weird results throughout the sport as three of the top six teams lost on Saturday including Alabama losing in overtime to Louisiana State University. The weirdness extended to the Big Ten as Ohio State survived a wind storm that featured sustained winds of 30mph and gusts of wind record up to 80 mph to beat Northwestern. Ohio State wanted nothing to do with this game and their energy and effort were lackluster throughout. On a weekend where multiple teams lost their shot at reaching the playoffs, a win is a win.  Speaking of winning, Wisconsin keeps winning under interim head coach Jim Leonhard as he brings his record to 3-1, with a win over Maryland, since taking charge of the Badgers program. Iowa has gotten back to its winning ways and found an offense along the way scoring 33 and 24 points in back-to-back weeks without a defensive touchdown. The consequences of Iowa having an average offense will be unbearable as Kirk Ferentz will use it as an excuse to blame the media for questioning his offense and his son, the offensive coordinator.  Next week will be separation Saturday for the Big Ten West which currently has Illinois at the top at 7-2 with a 4-2 conference record. After Illinois, there is a four-team tie for second place with Wisconsin, Iowa, Purdue, and Minnesota all sitting at 3-3 in the conference. Illinois plays Purdue while Iowa and Wisconsin play, a loss will knock at least one team out of the running for the West Division. An Illinois win and they will all but secure the Division and a trip to Indianapolis to face the winner of the Ohio State and Michigan game. In their weekly pit stops, Dante is disappointed in Anthony Davis, again, as he only shot the ball two times in the second half of the Laker's loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers. Jordan talks about the wild weekend in which Clemson and Alabama were all but eliminated from college football playoff contention.  Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 3419 Instant Recap Pod: Ohio State wins 21-7 against Northwestern in a burn the tape type of game https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ Ohio State traveled to Northwestern to take on the Wildcats in an an ugly weather matchup that the Buckeyes won 21-7. Jordan Williams is joined by Chris Renne to bring you the Land-Grant Holy Land “Instant Recap Podcast.” To get the show started, the guys discuss why Ohio State just needs to bur the tape from this matchup and move on to next week. In the first discussion the guys discuss the run game struggles again for a third week in a row. The conversation moves forward to Miyan Williams’ lack of juice running the ball, and if the issues came from scheme or the execution. Then the duo gets into why it takes so long for Ryan Day to get creative with his run designs as a play-caller. The defense played a huge game, despite giving up some run yards they came up huge multiple times. In the tenches Ohio State had to battle and the linebackers came up with enough plays at the second level to keep Northwestern from doing anything explosive. After that, Jordan and Chris discuss C.J. Stroud’s performance and why the grittiness was something they were excited to see. The trust the coaching staff had to let him win the game was there as always. To conclude, the show they give their final thoughts on the performance, discuss injuries, and what’s next for the Buckeyes.

]]> 3176 Buck Off Podcast: An honest conversation about Northwestern, Ohio State's run game, and presser bullets https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I’m joined by Jordan Williams. We take an honest look at the Northwestern program from an outsider’s perspective to get prepared for Ohio State’s matchup against the Wildcats. To get the show started, we open with a discussion about why Northwestern is as bad as they are. Despite recently playing the Buckeyes in the Big Ten Championship Game, the Wildcats have been on a downward trajectory including not winning in the United States for over a year. We get into how Pat Fitzgerald needs to be in a “do-or-die” mindset with the Big Ten’s transition forward and ask the question – is Fitzgerald even trying? After that, the Buckeyes have started to give away their tendencies in the run game again with their alignment. Ryan Day was asked about it this week in his media availability, so we talk about his answer. Getting into Day’s philosophies and how he needs to continue to work on being creative before he gets stagnant again. Moving on from that, our discussion leads into the press conferences from the week in totality. We talk about Ryan Day gushing about Cade Stover, Jim Knowles getting down to business, and Sam Wiglusz representing Ohio State’s receiver room in the southeastern part of the state. As the show moves forward, the final discussion is about the takeaways you can have from the game and what we can learn about Ohio State despite the opponent being overmatched. To close out the show, we give our reasons Ohio State will win and score predictions.

The guys start this week’s show by discussing what Ohio State did well and what they did not do well during this week’s exhibition game against the Chaminade Silverswords. Chris Holtmann was not overly pleased about his team’s effort — especially on the glass — despite his team winning by 44 points. Will adding Justice Sueing and Gene Brown to the mix improve their rebounding numbers by all that much? They also discuss which players could get squeezed out of the main rotation when Sueing and Brown return. Then, Justin and Connor give their best guesses on how the Big Ten conference will break down this season. Which surprise team does Connor have in his top four? Which team does Justin have missing the NCAA Tournament for just the second time since Y2K?

Following Ohio State’s 101-57 victory over the Chaminade Silverswords at Value City Arena, Tanner Holden, Bruce Thornton, and Roddy Gayle spoke to the media about their first game in front of fans at Ohio State. The three players said that they’re confident in themselves against anyone in the nation if they can continue to improve defensively, but also that there were some nerves — especially for the freshmen. After that, head coach Chris Holtmann spoke to the media for about 20 minutes, and was especially critical of his team’s rebounding effort (Ohio State only out-rebounded Chaminade by eight, despite winning by 44). Holtmann said that Ohio State played very well for “several stretches” but that he wanted to see a bit more effort, hustle, and certainly more production on the glass.

]]> 2024 Silver Bullets Podcast: Penn State Rewind and Northwestern Preview For the second consecutive week, Ohio State’s offense took a little while to get warmed up but then it was absolutely fine. Also for the second straight week, the defense forced key turnovers to effectively prevent the Buckeyes’ opponents from being able to take advantage of the offense’s slow start. We break down Ohio State’s 44-31 road win over the Penn State Nittany Lions, including a first half that seemed much tighter than it needed to be. We checked in on our score predictions to see how well we prognosticated the game, and poured over the statistical data to see if our picks to click actually...well, clicked. We took our usual stroll through the rest of the Big Ten games from Saturday to keep tabs on how everyone else made out. There was some ugliness in Ann Arbor and it wasn’t limited to the game between the Wolverines and Spartans, as it spilled into the tunnel after the game. While everyone seems to want to point out how easily Michigan handled Penn State compared to Ohio State’s trip to Happy Valley, it’s worth reminding them that the Wolverines had to settle for a lot of field goals at home against a Spartans team that the Buckeyes eviscerated in East Lansing. The Illini kept rolling while the Minnesota Golden Gophers tried to get back on track and Iowa found some offense against...Northwestern. Speaking of the Wildcats, we looked ahead to Saturday’s road game and the way Northwestern has played this season, we expect the spread to be covered as Ohio State looks to get back in rhythm offensively heading into the season’s final stretch. We made our predictions for the game and selected our offensive and defensive picks to click. We’ll be back next week to talk about Ohio State’s matchup with the Northwestern Wildcats in Evanston, Illinois, and to preview next week’s return home to face the Indiana Hoosiers at Ohio Stadium.

]]> 5365 I-70 Football Show: A weekend full of horror Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. October is full of horror as new scary movies drop, and old favorites end up on streaming services as many of us are searching for a good scare. I watched Halloween Ends, the final film in the Michael Myers series, this weekend and it was not even close to the scariest thing I’ve seen. That honor belongs to this week's Big Ten schedule as every game ended with a two-score deficit many of them larger than three. The horror doesn’t end there, this weekend was full of blowouts, and next weekend's schedule doesn’t have a single interesting game or a game with stakes.  The closest game of the weekend was Ohio State vs. Penn State as James Franklin’s team continued their streak of playing OSU tough. Penn State was winning most of the game finding ways to slow down the Buckeye offense and held a 21-16 lead with nine minutes left in the game. At that moment it was over as Ohio State flipped the switch and scored 28 fourth-quarter points including a touchdown after a sack-fumble and a pick-six, both by Ohio State defensive end J.T. Tuimoloau. Michigan steamrolled in-state rival Michigan State as the Spartans didnt show fight until after the game when they jumped a Michigan player in the tunnel.  The scariest thing of the year will happen the weekend after Halloween as Northwestern has to spend 60 minutes on the same field as Ohio State. After playing Iowa and allowing them to score 33 points, without a defensive touchdown, Northwestern may want to forfeit this game and cite player safety. The Buckeyes will go into this game looking to fix some issues before they face Michigan with the Big Ten East division title and a spot in the playoffs on the line. This game should come with an R rating, cover your eyes, and don’t let your kids watch there will be a lot of blood and gore.  In their weekly pit stops, Jordan laughs at Anthony Davis after his horrid start to the season. In the off-season, AD bragged about not touching a basketball and it’s clear he didn’t as he struggles early on. Dante thinks that Aaron Rodgers and Russell Wilson are overrated and should retire as father time is catching up to them.  Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 3547 Instant Recap Pod: J.T. Tuimoloau’s performance, late offensive surge leads Ohio State past Penn State https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ Ohio State traveled to Penn State to take on the Nittany Lions in their first real test of the season coming away 44-31. Jordan Williams is joined by Chris Renne to bring you the Land-Grant Holy Land “Instant Recap Podcast.” To get the show started, start the show off getting their anger out from Ohio State’s play-calling issues that kept Penn State in the game until the fourth quarter. In the first discussion the guys discuss the bubble screens, the run-play failures, and why the Buckeyes wouldn’t keep attacking down the field. After this discussion, they discuss what needs to change and why it takes so long for Ryan Day to be good at his jobs. Then we discuss why this game was 100 percent on coaching and why the players almost suffered a loss on those coaching failures. The defense showed up, but more specifically one player dominated in key moments, and you can easily guess who it was. We talk about J.T. Tuimoloau’s performance and how he won the game for the Buckeyes on that side of the ball. The rest of the defense played well, and we realize that none of the players really played bad. After that, Jordan and Chris discuss the Players of the Game as well as their games and their favorite moments including Cade “Baby Gronk” Stover scoring a late touchdown. To conclude, the show they give their final thoughts on the performance, discuss injuries, and what’s next for the Buckeyes.

]]> 5062 Hangout in the Holy Land: Will Ohio State finally be tested by Penn State? (10/26/22) https://www.landgrantholyland.com Land-Grant Holy Land’s flagship podcast ‘Hangout in the Holy Land’ is back! Join LGHL’s co-managing editor Gene Ross alongside his co-host Josh Dooley as they cover everything from football to basketball to recruiting and more! On this week’s episode, Gene and Josh preview what should be one of two remaining tests for Ohio State during the regular season — at least we think. The Buckeyes have had a number of teams on the docket who could supposedly test them thus far, but none of them have.

]]> 3380 Silver Bullets Podcast: Iowa Rewind and Penn State Preview Ohio State looked a little groggy coming out of the bye week for about a half but then figured out some things and found some rhythm to put Iowa on full blast, 54-10. Although the first half of the game may have been somewhat aggravating, the Buckeyes cruised in the end. It’s hard to know how much of the defensive performance was the OSU defense and how much of it was an inept Hawkeye offense. The truth is probably a bit of both. We looked back on our predictions for the game and it turns out we vastly underrated Ohio State’s offense (and/or overrated the Iowa defense). We go over the game’s talking points, including six takeaways by the defense, some odd playcalling and issues getting plays called at all, the continued emergence of Julian Fleming, and more. We welcomed Matt de Bear from Roar Lions Roar to get us up to speed on how the 2022 season has gone for the Penn State Nittany Lions. It sounds like the Buckeye offense will again be forced to figure out a stout defense, but on the road this time. Penn State’s offense is better than Iowa’s and can run the football this year. The key match-up is probably Ohio State’s passing game against that solid Penn State secondary. Big thanks to Matt for his usual excellent analysis of the Nittany Lions. We walked through this week’s Big Ten results, including the Jeckyl-and-Hyde Purdue Boilermakers losing at Wisconsin, Maryland reaching bowl eligibility, and Rutgers probably driving the final nail into Indiana’s bowl hopes. Then we made our picks to click on offense and defense for the Buckeyes in this Saturday’s game and put our already questionable reputations on the line with our eerily similar score predictions. We’ll be back next week to talk about Ohio State’s match-up with Penn State in Happy Valley and look ahead to the trip to Evanston, Ill. to face the Northwestern Wildcats.

]]> 2328 Bucketheads: Talking with Adam Jardy about the Buckeyes, Big Ten, NCAA Tournament expansion (10/20/22) https://www.landgrantholyland.com ‘Bucketheads’ is LGHL’s men’s basketball podcast, hosted by Connor Lemons and Justin Golba. Every episode they give you the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes and everything else happening in the college hoops world. This week, Connor and Justin discuss the Big Ten Conference’s 22-year struggle to win a national championship — is recruiting lagging behind, are they having bad luck, or maybe a little bit of both? They follow with a game where Justin has to match each team’s tournament resume since 2000 to the proper program.

]]> 4352 Silver Bullets Podcast: B1G Results and Iowa Preview The Buckeyes took a week off but we didn’t. We wouldn’t leave our listeners hanging like that. Without an Ohio State game to break down, we opened with our weekly walk through the other Big Ten games. All eyes were on the top 10 match-up in Ann Arbor that turned out to be a terrible game. Meanwhile, some of the games few people outside of the specific fandoms wanted to see turned out to be some of the most entertaing battles of the weekend. Bret Bielema’s Illini gained bowl eligibility, some key injuries took place around the league, Wisconsin continued to be perplexing, and Nebraska is still struggling in one-score games. Beyond the B1G, there were some incredible games all day long on Saturday. The Alabama-Tennessee game is one that had our attention, but there were also huge games between future Big Ten school USC and Utah, TCU and Oklahoma State, and elsewhere around the country. Even without an OSU game, Saturday was one of the best college football game days in years. We welcomed Adam Jacobi to the show this week to give us the scoop on what has been a frustrating year so far for Iowa Hawkeyes fans. The editor-at-large for GoIowaAwesome.com was kind enough to get into Iowa’s offensive struggles and the issues that quarterback Spencer Petras and the Iowa offensive line have had this season. He also told us who to watch for on the Hawkeye defense when Ohio State has the ball. Big thanks to Adam for his time. Finally, we put our suspect reputations on the line by selecting our Ohio State picks to click on offense and defense for this weekend’s game. We also gave our final score predictions for Saturday’s meeting between the Buckeyes and the Hawkeyes. We’re both expecting a surprise cover for Iowa in a game that we suspect might be lower scoring than the average fan might think. It all depends on how much trouble the Buckeyes have moving the ball against a top-notch Iowa defense. We’ll be back next week to talk about Ohio State’s meeting in the Shoe with the Iowa Hawkeyes and look ahead to the Penn State Nittany Lions.

]]> 5065 I-70 Football Podcast: We know who is good, we'll soon know who is bad! Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. After defeating Minnesota, Illinois is officially in the driver's seat for the West division title. All that is standing in their way is a showdown with Purdue, but after beating Wisconsin, Iowa, and Minnesota in back-to-back games it’s unlikely they will lose again until a showdown with Michigan. Speaking of Michigan, the Wolverines dominated Penn State with a punishing run game on the backs of another big game from Corum and a personal-best 173 rushing yards for Donovan Edwards. Michigan has looked dominant and should be undefeated going into the Game against the Buckeyes. After an expected victory against Northwestern Wisconsin showed their flaws extend passed their offense as the defense allowed 34 points to a struggling Michigan State team in another losing effort.  After a weekend that solidified what teams are good we will soon find out what teams are bad this upcoming week as Minnesota faces Penn State and Purdue faces Wisconsin. Penn State’s run defense will be put to the test again against Mo Ibrahim, a loss here and they are looking at three straight defeats with Ohio State looming the following week. If Wisconsin loses to Purdue their season may be over as they may struggle to reach six wins even with the coaching change. The Buckeyes are back in action this week against a floundering Iowa team. Iowa's defense will have a major challenge with the Buckeye's offense, but even a great defensive performance may be not enough with their lackluster offense.  In their weekly pitstop, the guys are on separate sides of the Yankees and Guardians American League Divisional Series. Dante celebrates the Guardians showing promise in two come from behind victories against the favored Yankees. Jordan laments the Yankee's decision not to have a legitimate closer and the lack of aggressiveness in the trade market and free agency.  Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

Then they discuss the running back room and how a surprise third contributor has made the group potentially the best on the team. After that, the guys get into the elite receiver play and how they are excelling without one of the most talented receivers in Ohio State history. Then they discuss how the offensive line is the best offensive line in the country. Coming back after the break, the guys get into a discussion about the defensive line and how they still potentially have another step higher to go.

]]> 2416 I-70 Football Podcast: Major Conference Showdowns Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. We’re back with a new episode, although a bit delayed. In this episode, we discuss last week’s slate of games, many of which were not good games but there were a couple of bangers. After blowing out Wisconsin, Illinois outlasts Iowa in a quintessential Big Ten defensive showdown. Despite losing Tommy DeVito and Isiah Washington, Illinois won on the backs of Chase Brown and their kicker. Purdue defeated Maryland at the buzzer after Maryland was called for a questionable ‘illegal man downfield’ penalty that negated a successful two-point try.  Last week may not have been a great week but this week is a banger. Coming into the week Illinois, Purdue, and Nebraska are all tied for first place in the West with a 2-1 conference record while Minnesota is one game behind at 1-1. All four of those teams play each other this week as Purdue faces off against Nebraska and Illinois takes on Minnesota in their third straight big game. Nebraska has won two straight with Mickey Joseph at the helm, are they legitimate or will they be proven as frauds? Illinois and Purdue are arguably the two best teams in the West sporting two of the nation’s best running backs and top-ten defenses. Can Illinois win three straight games to secure their place at the top of the division? In the East division, Penn State and Michigan meet as undefeated and hope to secure a winner take all game against the Buckeyes for the East. Neither team has played a tough opponent and hopes to protect their quarterbacks with their running game. Which team will execute the game plan better?

After reviewing last week's slate we get into the three major conference deciding games this weekend Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. We’re back with a new episode, although a bit delayed. In this episode, we discuss last week’s slate of games, many of which were not good games but there were a couple of bangers. After blowing out Wisconsin, Illinois outlasts Iowa in a quintessential Big Ten defensive showdown. Despite losing Tommy DeVito and Isiah Washington, Illinois won on the backs of Chase Brown and their kicker. Purdue defeated Maryland at the buzzer after Maryland was called for a questionable ‘illegal man downfield’ penalty that negated a successful two-point try.  Last week may not have been a great week but this week is a banger. Coming into the week Illinois, Purdue, and Nebraska are all tied for first place in the West with a 2-1 conference record while Minnesota is one game behind at 1-1. All four of those teams play each other this week as Purdue faces off against Nebraska and Illinois takes on Minnesota in their third straight big game. Nebraska has won two straight with Mickey Joseph at the helm, are they legitimate or will they be proven as frauds? Illinois and Purdue are arguably the two best teams in the West sporting two of the nation’s best running backs and top-ten defenses. Can Illinois win three straight games to secure their place at the top of the division? In the East division, Penn State and Michigan meet as undefeated and hope to secure a winner take all game against the Buckeyes for the East. Neither team has played a tough opponent and hopes to protect their quarterbacks with their running game. Which team will execute the game plan better?

]]> 4707 Buck Off Podcast: First half report, media availability, and the best offensive line in the country https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I’m joined by Jordan Williams. We take a look at Ohio State as they do their best to navigate the first weekend without Ohio State football on the year. To get the show started, the guys get into what the Bye week brings and discuss the opportunity to reflect about the first half of the season. This leads to a conversation about changed expectations and what we’ve seen from the Buckeyes in the first half. They also discuss the big weekend of games that will be filling the void. After that, the guys get into the coach media availability from Tuesday and this turns into a discussion about the expectations of some position groups. The guys start with the cornerbacks looking into the reasons they might be struggling including health and new techniques. They also discuss the difficulties of life on an island. Moving on from that, the guys talk about Justin Frye’s offensive line group and how Ohio State fans need Indiana to win some football games. They dive into some stats that tell the story about just how dominant Ohio State’s offensive line has been this season. As the show moves forward, the guys answer some first half questions and where the Buckeyes stand as they reach the half way point of the regular season. Then they get into a long discussion about Tommy Eichenberg’s Heisman candidacy. To close out the show, Chris and Jordan discuss the final six opponents in jest to have some fun going into the bye week.

]]> 873 Silver Bullets Podcast: Sparty Rewind and Bye Week Preview Ohio State passed its first road test with flying colors in Saturday’s 49-20 win over the Michigan State Spartans in East Lansing. The Buckeyes were never seriously challenged and charitably gave the Spartans some free points to flatter them a bit with a final score that wasn’t wholly indicative of the game. After five home games, the Buckeyes went into enemy territory for the first time but C.J. Stroud wasn’t fazed and Marvin Harrison Jr. put on a clinic. On the other side of the ball, Cam Brown returned and then probably wished he hadn’t, but Mike Hall Jr., Tommy Eichenberg, and Ronnie Hickman had big games. The Spartans couldn’t run the ball and could hardly protect Payton Thorne despite some serious holding on both defensive ends throughout the game. We went through the scoring and the stats, checking in on our predictions and picks to click, and we probably whined a little too much about Kyle McCord not getting to run the actual offense. This is something that could come in handy if he ever had to actually run the OSU offense. As we see around the country each week, every backup quarterback is only one play away from being forced into action. After recapping the game, we looked back at the other games around the Big Ten this past weekend. Nebraska, Wisconsin, and Illinois are trending up, Rutgers, Iowa, and Indiana are on the downswing. The season is half over for some of the teams in the league, so we took stock of the standings in the Big Ten’s East and West divisions. There are some surprises and then there’s Northwestern. We also looked ahead to this Saturday, with some big games on the schedule in both divisions of the B1G. We’ll have our eyes on Penn State at Michigan and Minnesota at Illinois. With no Ohio State game to look forward to, we’ll be forced to keep an eye on some upcoming opponents and potential opponents. Which games are most you looking forward to watching this weekend? We’ll be back next week to talk about the things that transpired during Ohio State’s bye week and to preview the upcoming match-up with the Iowa Hawkeyes.

The season is half over for some of the teams in the league, so we took stock of the standings in the Big Ten’s East and West divisions. There are some surprises and then there’s Northwestern.

We also looked ahead to this Saturday, with some big games on the schedule in both divisions of the B1G. We’ll have our eyes on Penn State at Michigan and Minnesota at Illinois. With no Ohio State game to look forward to, we’ll be forced to keep an eye on some upcoming opponents and potential opponents. Which games are most you looking forward to watching this weekend?

We’ll be back next week to talk about the things that transpired during Ohio State’s bye week and to preview the upcoming match-up with the Iowa Hawkeyes. In the meantime, feel free to reach out with your feedback and questions below in the comments section or send us an email.

The guys take a look at Ohio State heading into their first road game against Michigan State. To get the show started, the guys discuss Ohio State’s opponent in the Michigan State Spartans, who are in fact much worse than you probably think. The guys discuss how Michigan State has taken a step back on both sides of the ball and why they have struggled against the three Power-5 opponents they have played this season. Then they discuss how impactful Kenneth Walker III was for Michigan State’s program, and why them winning 11 games last year might have been a bad thing. After that, the guys get into why Ryan Day is a liar from some comments he made on his weekly radio show the great Paul Keels. We also discuss if Ryan Day is too respectful of his opponents. Once we get our jokes off we transition to some serious takeaways about how Ryan Day feels about the injuries and why the linebacker unit has been such an effective trio. As the show moves forward, the guys then take a victory lap. You might have heard that Zach Harrison played tackle this week, but if you’re a true day one listener you would know the guys have been on this since potentially March. To close out the show, the guys discuss special teams and make their score predictions.

To tip off the 2022-23 season for the reigning Big Ten Regular Season Champions, the Ohio State women’s basketball team, represented by head coach Kevin McGuff and five players, discuss a wide range of topics. Coach McGuff shares his excitement about point guard Madison Greene’s return to the Scarlet and Gray after sustaining a season-ending injury right before the 21-22 season. He also discusses this year being an open competition and how he’s challenged his team with a non-conference schedule not seen in a few years. Guard Taylor Mikesell discusses when she knew she was returning to the Buckeyes instead of trying her hand in the WNBA Draft. Forward Rebeka Mikulášiková talks about her growing leadership within the team and who she thinks will win Thursday’s Buckeyes on the Blacktop three-point shootout. Finally, Greene talks about her return, senior Jacy Sheldon discusses having so many Central Ohio stars on the team and Rikki Harris is going to continue what she did last year to separate herself as one of the strongest defenders on the team.

]]> 5506 Silver Bullets Podcast: Rutgers Rewind and Sparty Preview Ohio State defeated a divisional Big Ten opponent by 39 points and somehow it still didn’t feel like a very good performance. The Buckeyes looked a bit off kilter at times in a 49-10 defeat of the Rutgers Scarlet Knights, despite the fact that two turnovers were responsible for all of the Rutgers scoring. It could have easily been 49-0 or worse with a little more sharpness, and it doesn’t help that injuries continue to mount. Nevertheless, we are here to talk about another Buckeye victory and to sing the praises of one Miyan “Chop” Williams, who abused the Scarlet Knights whenever he touched the football on Saturday. The passing game wasn’t as sharp as usual but the defense once again turned up, especially Steele Chambers, who had himself a day. We dissect the game, check on our score predictions to see how well we prognosticated the match-up, and comb through the statistics to see how our picks to click fared on each side of the ball. Our guest this week was Ryan O’Bleness, the managing editor over at The Only Colors, SBNation’s website covering the Michigan State Spartans. Ryan was nice enough to talk us through what Sparty has been up to this season, including the team’s issues and strengths, as well as which players we should watch for on Saturday in East Lansing. Big thanks to Ryan for sharing his knowledge about Payton Thorne and company. Our walk through the rest of the Big Ten results doesn’t usually have us talking about the firing of a coach, but it seems to be happening a lot in the B1G West in 2022. Paul Chryst got dumped by Bret Bielema and the Fighting Illini and then he got dumped by the University of Wisconsin. That was only one of the surprising results in the West this past weekend. Finally, we put ourselves out there and made our score predictions for Ohio State at Michigan State and we selected our picks to click on offense and defense for the Buckeyes. We’ll be back next week to analyze the Michigan State game, check on our picks and predictions, and get ready for Ohio State’s bye week. We’re not sure what it means to be “ready” for a bye week but we’ll try to figure it out before next week.

]]> 5793 I-70 Football Podcast: Paul Chryst’s tenure ends at the hands of his predecessor Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. Welcome to a special edition of the I-70 Football Show! Wisconsin shocks the college football world by firing head coach Paul Chryst after losing to former head coach Bret Bielema in a dominant showing for the Illinois Fighting Illini. After taking stock of the football program's direction, athletic director Chris McIntosh decided to relieve Chryst of his coaching duties and promote former star safety and current defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard to interim Head Coach. In this episode, the guys discuss why Wisconsin made this move and what it means for the program's future. While it may be surprising to some it makes sense when you consider the last few years under Chryst and the future of the Big Ten. With a new television contract, an upcoming elimination of divisions, and a 12-team playoff, McIntosh wants his program on the upswing and not going downhill. Chryst has a career record of 56-27, one game behind Bret Bielema, but the program has taken a step back the past three years. After starting 52-16 in his first five seasons, Chryst is 15-10 since 2020 with a 9-8 record after West division opponents. Chryst has led Wisconsin to three Big Ten championships but none in the last two years. After starting 2-3 with losses to Washington State and Illinois, it's safe to assume this will be the third start season without a trip to Indianapolis. Add in a slip in recruiting and the failure to develop top recruits like quarterback Graham Mertz and former five-star offensive lineman Logan Brown and you start to see cracks in the foundation that Chryst can't fix. Jim Leonhard, the Wisconsin wunderkind, is being given a seven-game sample to see if he is the man for the job. While the three of us have concerns that hiring Leonhard would be settling Wisconsin has been scared that Leonhard would take another job and has been itching to promote him. Leonhard will have a tough decision to make between maintaining the Wisconsin way and modernizing the program for the future. Overall Wisconsin has taken a positive step toward the future, a future that Chryst no longer seemed fit to lead.

My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. On Saturday former Wisconsin head football coach and athletic director Barry Alvarez sat in the stands to watch his two proteges face off against each other. Former Wisconsin head coach and current Illinois head coach Bret Bielema and current head coach Paul Chryst faced off in a battle of the Alvarez system with Bielema and the Fighting Illini coming out on top by out Wisconsin-ing Wisconsin.  Maryland, Michigan, and Ohio State secure wins and look to be the top three programs in the Big Ten East as Michigan State had taken a significant step back and Penn State struggled to put away a terrible Northwestern team. Aidan O’Connell returned from injury to lead Purdue past Minnesota in an ugly game from start to finish. After week five the West Division has six teams tied for first place with a 1-1 conference record.  In week six, Illinois looks to secure its place as the best team in the Big Ten West with a win over Iowa. They have a tough stretch with Wisconsin, Iowa, and Minnesota in three straight weeks but two wins out of three will set them up for the stretch run towards an Illbuck championship game. Maryland looks to secure its best season under Mike Locksley with a win over Purdue. There's a chance that Maryland reaches bowl eligibility with a month left in the season.  In their weekly pitstop, the guys celebrate Kent State breaking Georgia. After allowing 22 points to the Golden Flashes, the Bulldogs were down double digits to Missouri for over 50 minutes of a 60-minute game.

]]> 1756 Instant Recap: Ohio State, Miyan Williams blow out Rutgers 49-10 in a Somewhat Sloppy Game (10/01/22) https://www.landgrantholyland.com It wasn't a great game from Ohio State's Heisman front-runner quarterback C.J. Stroud, but it didn't really matter because Miyan Williams asserted himself as not only a true contender to be Ohio State's No. 1 running back, but also a darkhorse Heisman contender himself. In the game, Chop went for 189 yards on the ground and a program record-tying five touchdowns. After Jordan Williams and Matt Tamanini start today's "Instant Recap" podcast by breaking down the heated confrontation between Ryan Day and Greg Schiano, they discuss the importance of Williams in the game today and whether or not he has earned the right to be RB1 even when TreVeyon Henderson is healthy in back in the lineup. They also nitpick Stroud's performance a bit; while it was far from his best, he is still the best QB in the country, and it's actually a good thing that when he has one of his extremely rare bad games, there is a top-tier running back to clean up the mess. They also discuss the importance of Emeka Egbuka in this receiving corps and how he compares with WR in OSU's recent past. On defense, Matt and Jordan heap praise on Steele Chambers and his evolution as a linebacker and have the difficult conversation about what to do with Denzel Burke at corner.

(09/30/22) https://www.landgrantholyland.com Every day for the entirety of the Ohio State football season, we will be asking and answering questions about the team, college football, and anything else on our collective minds of varying degrees of importance. If you have a question that you would like to ask, you can tweet us @LandGrant33 or if you need more than 280 characters, send an email HERE. On today's episode, Matt Tamanini talks to LGHL's resident football coach Caleb Houser about what leads to a quarterback throwing the ball high on a semi-regular basis. At this point in the college football season, it is pretty obvious that C.J. Stroud is not only the best QB in the country, but also the prohibitive favorite to win the Heisman Trophy. However, while he has been near perfect through the first four games of the season, over this 17 games as Ohio State's starter, when he hasn't been spot on, he has had the occasional tendency to miss guys high, which we saw a little bit of against Wisconsin. So, Matt wanted to talk to Caleb to see if that we indicative of some sort of mechanical issue that pops up from time to time, perhaps something in Stroud's timing, or maybe even something mentally happening against certain teams.

]]> 2121 Silver Bullets Podcast: Wisconsin Rewind and Rutgers Preview It was supposed to be the toughest test to date for the Ohio State Buckeyes, and maybe it was, but Ryan Day’s team took care of business quickly and efficiently during Saturday night’s “blackout” game to the tune of a 52-21 drubbing of the Wisconsin Badgers. We didn’t expect quite such an easy win, and it remains to be seen how good this year’s Wisconsin team actually is, but it was nice not to have to sweat out a night game against a marquee opponent. We broke down how the evening in the Horseshoe unfolded, checked in on our score predictions to see how close (or far) we were, and went through the stats sheet to see if our picks to click on offense and defense clicked or not. We then welcomed Greg Patuto, the managing editor over at SBNation’s OnTheBanks, to the show to get us ready for Greg Schiano’s Rutgers Scarlet Knights on Saturday. Greg (Patuto, not Schiano) did a great job of getting us up to speed on what’s new with the Knights, what Rutgers has been doing well, and where the team still has some growing to do. Our sincere thanks to Greg for stopping by and dropping the Rutgers knowledge on us. We took our weekly walk through the other Big Ten games on the scoreboard, where the league tripped up in a few non-conference games and had very few competitive match-ups. We spent a few minutes on that entertaining Maryland game at Michigan in which the Terrapins wadded up a legit chance to get a road upset and threw it in the garbage. Mike Locksley may one day learn when timeouts should be used but that day has not yet come, as Maryland could have avoided a couple of problems with a simple hand gesture toward the referee — no, not that one, the legal one. Finally, we put our pride and our good names on the line as we made our score predictions and selected our picks to click for Ohio State vs. Rutgers this Saturday.

Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices Tue, 27 Sep 2022 08:00:00 -0000 Silver Bullets Podcast: Wisconsin Rewind and Rutgers Preview full 121 FFSN The Buckeyes rolled the Badgers and a friend from On The Banks joins us to preview the Scarlet Knights. It was supposed to be the toughest test to date for the Ohio State Buckeyes, and maybe it was, but Ryan Day’s team took care of business quickly and efficiently during Saturday night’s “blackout” game to the tune of a 52-21 drubbing of the Wisconsin Badgers. We didn’t expect quite such an easy win, and it remains to be seen how good this year’s Wisconsin team actually is, but it was nice not to have to sweat out a night game against a marquee opponent. We broke down how the evening in the Horseshoe unfolded, checked in on our score predictions to see how close (or far) we were, and went through the stats sheet to see if our picks to click on offense and defense clicked or not. We then welcomed Greg Patuto, the managing editor over at SBNation’s OnTheBanks, to the show to get us ready for Greg Schiano’s Rutgers Scarlet Knights on Saturday. Greg (Patuto, not Schiano) did a great job of getting us up to speed on what’s new with the Knights, what Rutgers has been doing well, and where the team still has some growing to do. Our sincere thanks to Greg for stopping by and dropping the Rutgers knowledge on us. We took our weekly walk through the other Big Ten games on the scoreboard, where the league tripped up in a few non-conference games and had very few competitive match-ups. We spent a few minutes on that entertaining Maryland game at Michigan in which the Terrapins wadded up a legit chance to get a road upset and threw it in the garbage. Mike Locksley may one day learn when timeouts should be used but that day has not yet come, as Maryland could have avoided a couple of problems with a simple hand gesture toward the referee — no, not that one, the legal one. Finally, we put our pride and our good names on the line as we made our score predictions and selected our picks to click for Ohio State vs. Rutgers this Saturday.

Your hosts, Matt Tamanini and Jami Jurich, will (of course) talk Ohio State sports, but the primary focus of the show will be on what’s going on around the periphery, such as weird/funny happenings in college football and the sports world at large, as well as other things that keep us interested in between games. On today’s episode, Matt and Jami get into just how freaking fun it is to watch the 2022 edition of the Ohio State football team. Despite all of the winning that the program has done over the past two decades, many of the games have been difficult to get through for a variety of reasons. Not this year though, as the team is dynamic, exciting, and loaded with potential on both sides of the ball.

]]> 2423 I-70 Football Podcast: Ohio State and Minnesota dominate Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. Welcome to the newest episode of the I-70 football show. Week four has come and gone and taught us a lot about the Big Ten while setting up some major games in the future, some as early as week five. Ohio State ran Wisconsin off the field going up 28-0 before Wisconsin got off the bus. It wasn’t until the fourth quarter that Wisconsin's offense showed up and by then it was far too late as the game was already out of hand. Minnesota had a similar experience against Michigan State dominating them in every facet of the game in a victory that proves they’re a true contender.  Illinois continued its winning ways while Northwestern was upset by Miami(OH), a middling program in the Mid-American Conference. Indiana comes back to earth after getting bullied by Wisconsin and two former Big Ten quarterbacks as shining on their new teams. In their week five review Dante and Jordan talk about the games that have an immediate impact. Minnesota starts its journey toward becoming the Big Ten West champion with a game against Purdue while Michigan and Maryland hope to bounce back after losing last week. Illinois has been a pleasant surprise this season and has a legitimate shot at upsetting Wisconsin, a team who has largely been a disappointment so far.  In their weekly pit stops, Jordan discusses his upcoming trip to Louisana. He get to go to death valley and watch LSU play Tennesse and experience a true sicko game in person as the Saints take on the Seahawks. Dante’s bank account is so full he’s planning on getting a tattoo and celebrating Kent State’s homecoming.  Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

Buckeye head coach Ryan Day and quarterback C.J. Stroud met with the media to provide insight into how the home team was able to effectively dominate every aspect of the game. Day discussed why the stable of Miyan Williams and TreVeyon Henderson is working so well when tandem backfields have often underperformed in the past for Ohio State, He also praises the defense for effectively shutting down Badgers' running back Braelon Allen during the meaningful portion of the game, and he discusses some of the injuries that his team has been dealing with. Stroud talks about the momentum that the offense built in the early portion of the game and how that carried the entire team forward. The quarterback also praised the team's two top running backs, not only for their carrying of the ball, but also their pass blocking as well.

To get the show started, the guys get right into the show discussing how they feel about the Buckeyes after their first three games. Then they start their evaluation of Ohio State after their first three games with the defense, and get into how the defensive foundation laid is the strongest it has been since 2019. Then they get into a discussion about the offense finding its rhythm through three games establishing a more dynamic run game and the rapport being built between C.J. Stroud and the receivers. They close out this segment with their remaining questions which highlights the cornerbacks.

]]> 3798 Silver Bullets Podcast: Toledo Rewind & Wisconsin Preview The Ohio State Buckeyes who took the field against the Toledo Rockets is the one we’ve been expecting. Offensively and defensively, the Buckeyes showed up and, for the most part, dominated. There were a couple of defensive hiccups but nothing consistent as Ohio State continues to adjust to a new coordinator on that side of the ball. We break down the key plays and players from the Buckeyes’ 77-21 thumping of a Toledo team that is expected to challenge for the Mid-American Conference title. We compare our score predictions to actual events and see whether are picks to click actually...err, clicked. To prepare us for this Saturday’s Big Ten opener against the Badgers, we welcomed Rohan Chakravarthi from SBNation’s Wisconsin blog, Bucky’s 5th Quarter. Rohan got us up to speed on what’s different about this year’s Badgers, how that vaunted Wisconsin defense is going to deal with Ohio State’s offense, the maturation of quarterback Graham Mertz, and where the team is strongest and weakest. Big thanks to Rohan for jumping on with us to talk some B1G football. We took our usual stroll through the rest of the Big Ten scores from Saturday, which featured some surprises — both good and bad — for the conference. If not for Sparty’s most recent road trip, the entire Big Ten East would be unbeaten. That’s right, even Rutgers and Indiana have managed to avoid defeat thus far. Meanwhile, there are several tire fires ablaze in the West, including what is looking like an exceedingly long season in Lincoln. We turned our attention back to Wisconsin for the final segment, looking at what Ohio State has to do either with or without TreVeyon Henderson on Saturday. Winning first down is going to be a big key, particularly when the Buckeyes are on defense. We’re expecting one of those annoyingly close games at least until halftime and then we’ll see which team adjusts and has the better second half. We’ll be back next week to analyze the Wisconsin game, check on our picks and predictions, and get ready for Rutgers. This is impossible, because one can never truly be ready for Rutgers, but we’ll try.

The Minneapolis native is down to five schools, OSU, Kansas, Xavier, Minnesota, and Virginia, but all of 247Sports' crystal balls place him as the fourth member of Holtmann's 2023 class. On the episode, Matt Tamanini and Justin Golba discuss how his presumed commitment came to be, what role George Washinton III's decommitment last week had on Chatman, and what this does (or doesn't) mean for the recruitment of Bronny James.

]]> 2349 I-70 Football Podcast: What in the world is wrong with the B1G West? Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. Three weeks into the season and the Big Ten East has been dominant with a combined record of 20-1 the East division has avoided the upset bug that has plagued college football so far. The same cannot be said for the West division who is a combined 12-10 and suffers an upset weekly, with Northwestern being upset by Southern Illinois. In this episode of the I-70 football show, the guys get into what is going on with the West division, surprise surprise from a league filled with bad coaches.  In their week three recap the guys discuss Ohio State's dismantling of Toledo to the tune of 11 touchdowns in 13 total possessions. As we often discuss the Big Ten West is full of bad coaches or coaches making bad decisions and that was the case in Purdue’s loss to Syracuse, a game they should have won if not for a foolish decision to run cover zero up four with 12 seconds left. Syracuse subsequently scored a game-winning touchdown in a game that was Purdue’s to win. Indiana, as every Big Ten program should, found a way to win against an inferior opponent in a thrilling overtime win over Western Kentucky. Indiana is 3-0 and hoping to carry momentum into the Big Ten slate. Lastly, the guys recap Penn State’s blowout of Auburn. It is time to put to rest the discussion that the dregs of the SEC are better than teams in every other conference.  We’re officially a quarter of the way through the season which means we are starting to understand who teams are and what their ceiling is. One team we have not figured out is Michigan but that should change after a game against Maryland. Maryland arguably has the second-best quarterback and wide receiver corp in the Big Ten and will challenge Michigan's starless defense. Ohio State plays Wisconsin in a game that isn’t expected to be close after Wisconsin's loss to Washington State. Minnesota looks to exert its dominance and gain respect with a win over Michigan State. It is a shame that they are still not ranked.  In their weekly pit stops, Jordan questions the thing that is college kickers. At this point why do they exist and why are they so bad at their jobs? Dante, despite saying he wouldn’t multiple times, bought 2K and is enjoying it. Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan.

Three weeks into the season and the Big Ten East has been dominant with a combined record of 20-1 the East division has avoided the upset bug that has plagued college football so far. The same cannot be said for the West division who is a combined 12-10 and suffers an upset weekly, with Northwestern being upset by Southern Illinois. In this episode of the I-70 football show, the guys get into what is going on with the West division, surprise surprise from a league filled with bad coaches. 

In their week three recap the guys discuss Ohio State's dismantling of Toledo to the tune of 11 touchdowns in 13 total possessions. As we often discuss the Big Ten West is full of bad coaches or coaches making bad decisions and that was the case in Purdue’s loss to Syracuse, a game they should have won if not for a foolish decision to run cover zero up four with 12 seconds left. Syracuse subsequently scored a game-winning touchdown in a game that was Purdue’s to win. Indiana, as every Big Ten program should, found a way to win against an inferior opponent in a thrilling overtime win over Western Kentucky. Indiana is 3-0 and hoping to carry momentum into the Big Ten slate. Lastly, the guys recap Penn State’s blowout of Auburn. It is time to put to rest the discussion that the dregs of the SEC are better than teams in every other conference. 

We’re officially a quarter of the way through the season which means we are starting to understand who teams are and what their ceiling is. One team we have not figured out is Michigan but that should change after a game against Maryland. Maryland arguably has the second-best quarterback and wide receiver corp in the Big Ten and will challenge Michigan's starless defense. Ohio State plays Wisconsin in a game that isn’t expected to be close after Wisconsin's loss to Washington State. Minnesota looks to exert its dominance and gain respect with a win over Michigan State. It is a shame that they are still not ranked. 

In their weekly pit stops, Jordan questions the thing that is college kickers. At this point why do they exist and why are they so bad at their jobs? Dante, despite saying he wouldn’t multiple times, bought 2K and is enjoying it.

Join LGHL’s co-managing editor Gene Ross alongside his co-host Josh Dooley as they cover everything from football to basketball to recruiting and more!

On this episode, Gene and Josh preview Ohio State’s Week 3 opponent, the Toledo Rockets. First, they touch on the news and notes from the Buckeyes’ weekly press conferences, including the latest on the injuries to Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Julian Fleming. They then get into their Toledo preview, a team expected to be one of the best in the MAC. The Rockets should provide stiffer competition than Arkansas State did, but at the end of the day Ohio State is still the far more talented team — as evidenced by the 31.5-point spread.

]]> 3205 Silver Bullets Podcast: Arkansas State Rewind and Toledo Preview Ohio State had little trouble dispatching Arkansas State in a 45-12 win and even though the Buckeyes still had some hiccups and didn’t cover the spread, things weren’t too far off from what we expected out of Saturday’s game. C.J. Stroud, Marvin Harrison Jr., and TreVeyon Henderson were explosive on the offensive side of the ball. The linebackers and defensive line are still playing well, and the defense is forcing field goals instead of allowing touchdowns. Although the Buckeyes need to clean up the penalties and perhaps start forcing a few turnovers, things are on schedule. We look into the scores and stats of Ohio State’s win. Of course, we checked in to see how our predictions and our picks to click fared, and we are seemingly better on the offensive side than the defensive side so far this season. Ohio State’s defensive ends aren’t putting up big numbers even when they’re playing well, so we’re seeing some patterns emerge in the statistical breakdowns of the games. To get us prepped for the Toledo Rockets, we enlisted the help of Steve Helwick from SBNation’s Hustle Belt blog, which covers all the MACtion. Steve got us caught up with familiar face Dallas Gant’s exploits with the Rockets this season, told us what to expect from the Toledo offense and defense, and let us know what the team’s expectations are for the 2022 Mid-American Conference season. Big thanks to Steve for both his expertise and his time. After bidding goodbye to our guest, we dug into the results around B1G football in Week 2, which was filled with blowouts but there were a few close games and one that we didn’t expect to be close ended up being the last straw for Scott Frost at Nebraska. We threw around some names that the Huskers might turn to in order to right the ship. We’ll be back next week to analyze the Toledo matchup, check on our picks and predictions, and get ready for a Big Ten-opening war with Wisconsin.

]]> 831 I-70 Football Podcast: The Scott Frost era has mercifully ended Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. It has finally happened, the Scott Frost era is over and we are all victors. The first of many names on Jordan's list of fireable coaches has been crossed off the list after Nebraska suffered a 45-42 loss to Georgia Southern. A Georgia Southern team led by Clay Helton, who was last year's, Scott Frost. It is a fitting end to a miserable coaching tenure that saw Frost go 16-31 in four-plus years. The guys get into Nebraska's firing of Frost and who should be next on the list. We're looking at you, Kirk Ferentz. Next up the guys review a weekend in which the Big Ten West had a miserable showing as four of the season teams lost all of which could be considered upsets. Wisconsin continues the trend of losing games where Braelon Allen doesn't run for 100 yards losing 17-14 to Washington State. Iowa's offense again failed to show up as Spencer Petras continued his streak of games without throwing a passing touchdown. Without the defense providing some scoring the Hawkeyes lost 10-7 to their in-state rival Iowa State. This makes the first time in six years under Matt Campbell that Iowa State has beaten Iowa. After a week off Northwestern lost to Duke which is not surprising and should serve as the second to last nail in Scott Frost's coffin. After a weekend like this it's time for Kevin Warren to announce the end of divisions effective for the 2024 season. With the false confidence allowed by being competitive in a weak West division many of these programs will never get better until they start catching annual beatings at the hands of "lesser" Big Ten East teams. After a brief stint of complaining about the AP top 25 which once again fails to capture a realistic picture of the good teams in college football, the guys begin their preview of week three. There are some sneaky good games as Penn State faces Purdue, Michigan State plays Washington and Nebraska goes to Lincoln to face the Oklahoma Sooners. In their weekly pit stops, Jordan is tired of the NFL already as the Colts found a way to tie against their much worse division foe in the Houston Texans.

]]> 3165 Instant Recap Podcast: Ohio State takes care of business winning 45-12 against Arkansas State https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ Ohio State won their Week 2 matchup against Arkansas State by a score of 45-12 in a convincing manner. Jordan Williams is joined by Chris Renne to bring you the Land-Grant Holy Land “Instant Recap Pod.” To get the show started, the guys get into their initial reactions after looking at the stats of the game against Arkansas State. They talk about the main issues that plagued the Buckeyes early and how the team’s energy was the energy of a pay game. After the initial discussion, the guys discuss the explosive offensive performance from the receivers and C.J. Stroud. The Buckeyes offense was consistent and never really needed to press to have success. Then the guys get into some conversations about the defense today. The defense as a whole played well, but penalties and mistakes in the secondary stole the show. The guys discuss why they would rather have Denzel Burke have a bad performance now, than later when the games really matter. After that, Jordan and Chris discuss the Players of the Game as well as their favorite moments. Highlighted plays are Miyan Williams’ blitz pick up and the greatest punt return that didn’t count.

Jordan Williams is joined by Chris Renne to bring you the Land-Grant Holy Land “Instant Recap Pod.” To get the show started, the guys get into their initial reactions after looking at the stats of the game against Arkansas State. They talk about the main issues that plagued the Buckeyes early and how the team’s energy was the energy of a pay game. After the initial discussion, the guys discuss the explosive offensive performance from the receivers and C.J. Stroud. The Buckeyes offense was consistent and never really needed to press to have success. Then the guys get into some conversations about the defense today. The defense as a whole played well, but penalties and mistakes in the secondary stole the show. The guys discuss why they would rather have Denzel Burke have a bad performance now, than later when the games really matter. After that, Jordan and Chris discuss the Players of the Game as well as their favorite moments. Highlighted plays are Miyan Williams’ blitz pick up and the greatest punt return that didn’t count. They also highlight their players of the game on offense and defense. To conclude the show they give their final thoughts on the performance, discuss injuries, and what’s next for the Buckeyes..

]]> 2311 Silver Bullets Podcast: Notre Dame Rewind & Arkansas State Preview The season is officially underway! Ohio State may have had the offense stuck in neutral for much of the opening game against the Fighting Irish, but — as usual — there’s always “run the dang ball” on which to fall back. The Jaxon Smith-Njigba injury certainly affected Ryan Day’s offense, Jim Knowles’ defense (after the first play) worked about as well as most OSU fans hoped, and the Buckeyes were able to be physical in the run game when it mattered most. We break down the Buckeyes’ 21-10 win over the Notre Dame, including what went well, what didn’t work as well as expected, and who the top performers were. We checked the final box score to check on how we did with our score predictions and the players we picked to click. After our Notre Dame talk, we walked through the results around the Big Ten, where there were few surprises but some results that probably should have gone the other way and at least one that could be costly at season’s end for teams that may struggle to reach bowl eligibility (looking at you, Illini). Finally, we looked ahead to Saturday’s opponents, the Arkansas State Red Wolves. There will be some familiar faces on the other side of the field on Saturday, including former Buckeye running back Brian Snead. After we present how we think the game will unfold, we give your our picks to click on both sides of the ball and our score predictions as well. We’ll be back next week to analyze the Arkansas State matchup, check on our picks and predictions, and get ready for an in-state battle against the Toledo Rockets.

]]> 2536 I-70 Football Podcast: No. 2 Ohio State survives a rock fight against No. 5 Notre Dame Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. Week one has come and gone and we're here to break down what was a wild week of football in the Big Ten and the entire college football landscape. Before we get into that Jordan has some thoughts on week zero as Scott Frost continues to prove he's not qualified to be the head coach of the Nebraska Cornhuskers. After another one-score loss while leading Frost has done nothing but finds ways to lose and blame other people. Despite pulling away in the end, his team led North Dakota by seven points late into the fourth quarter in a game most of us thought they would find a way to lose. Is there any way he can save his job? or is he doomed to be fired about the Indiana game when his buy-out gets cut in half from $15 million to $7.5 million on October 1st? Week one saw a wide range of games and performances from Iowa winning a game against an FCS opponent 7-3 without scoring a touchdown to Rutgers defeating Boston College by one point in one of the biggest wins of the new Schiano era. Penn State and Purdue played a classic game combining for 66 points but only 168 total rushing yards as both teams struggled to run the ball. Sean Clifford and Conor Bazelak led game-winning drives for Penn State and Indiana respectively as Penn State hopes to find their way back to the top of the Big Ten and Indiana is hoping to prove that last year was a fluke. Chase Brown, Mohamed Ibrahim, and Braelon Allen started their 2022 campaign with a bang all running for over 100 yards as they look to lead their teams to a bowl game and challenge for the Big Ten West. Ohio State survived a tough game against Notre Dame Marcus Freeman, and his band of former Buckeye players and coaches, came into the Shoe looking to upset Ohio State and begin this new era with a win against a top-five program,.The Buckeyes faced adversity immediately as Julian Fleming was ruled out for the game and Jaxon Smith-Njigba sat out most of the game after suffering an injury early in the contest. Without two of his top weapons, Stroud struggled to find a rhythm while Day refused to lean on the running game leading to Notre Dame holding a 10-7 lead for most of the game. While the offense struggled the defense held Notre Dame in check forcing six straight punts until the offense found a rhythm scoring two touchdowns to secure a 21-10 lead. While week one gave us some amazing games with a few Big Ten matchups and even a top five showdown, week two is largely buy games as only two programs play other power five teams, Week two should be a week where even the worst of the Big Ten should be able to secure a win.

]]> 5107 Stick to Sports Podcast: Football season excitement, mutual disdain for Notre Dame (08/30/22) https://www.landgrantholyland.com Land-Grant Holy Land’s Stick to Sports is unlike any podcast you’ve heard on the Ohio State beat. Your hosts, Matt Tamanini and Jami Jurich, will (of course) talk Ohio State sports, but the primary focus of the show will be on what’s going on around the periphery, such as weird/funny happenings in college football and the sports world at large, as well as other things that keep us interested in between games. On today’s episode, Matt and Jami geek out that the college football season is finally here and the Buckeyes will be back on the field in a matter of days. They discuss their normal football-watching setups, how much of Week 0 they consumed, and their feelings about the Notre Dame game coming up on Saturday. They also discuss how they feel about Fighting Irish fans’ general level of smugness and how it compares to that of the fans of TTUN. They also dive into whether ND should be allowed to play Big Ten teams after spurning invitations to join the league multiple times in the past two decades. Then, as they are wont to do, they share a couple of pop culture recommendations. Jami’s Recommendation: “A League of Their Own” series on Prime Video Matt’s Recommendation: Season 2 of “Only Murders in the Building” (especially the finale) on Hulu Connect with Jami Jurich Twitter: @JamiJurich Connect with Matt Tamanini Twitter: @BWWMatt Theme music provided by www.bensound.com  Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 2634 Silver Bullets Podcast: Week 1 Notre Dame Game Preview (08/30/22) https://www.landgrantholyland.com An Ohio State game week is finally upon us and the match-ups of iconic college football programs don’t get much bigger than Ohio State vs. Notre Dame. This is a massive game from many standpoints — the college football playoff picture, recruiting, Midwest bragging rights, etc. — and we can’t wait to see how it unfolds in the Horseshoe. Before getting into the Notre Dame talk, Chip Minnich and Michael Citro spent some time discussing the recently launched Ohio State NIL club and what that might mean going forward. They also walked through the “Week 0” results in the Big Ten, particularly the Nebraska meltdown in Ireland against the Northwestern Wildcats. Despite being a guy named Frost, Nebraska’s coach has perhaps the hottest seat in college football. After chatting about what went wrong for the Cornhuskers and the many areas they just simply weren’t good enough on Saturday, your hosts touched on the Illinois opener against Wyoming. They also previewed the upcoming B1G slate that’s scheduled during the work week. To help everyone prepare for Saturday, we brought in special guest Brendan McAlinden, a staff writer and podcast co-host over at SBNation’s One Foot Down, which covers Notre Dame. Brendan fills us in on what we can expect from the Fighting Irish on Saturday night. We would have appreciated him being on the show even if he had power, but he didn’t, so kudos to Brendan for finding a workaround with his phone’s personal wifi hotspot just to join our Zoom call. We also appreciate how much statistical homework he did when figuring out what Notre Dame has to do to pull an upset at Ohio Stadium. Resuming the Week 1 preview, Michael and Chip talked about Jim Harbaugh’s unorthodox approach to his starting quarterback battle to start the year, although it probably won’t have too much of an effect given Michigan’s competition in the non-conference schedule. They also walked through the rest of the Saturday slate before getting into the Buckeyes and the Irish. Chip and Michael made their “picks to click,” selecting one player each on offense and defense who they think will have a big impact on the game. They also made our score predictions for the big showdown in the Shoe. We’ll see you next week, when we’ll check in on how your hosts did with their predictions and picks to click and get you prepared for the Buckeyes’ next game against Arkansas State.

]]> 4795 I-70 Football: Previewing Ohio State vs. Notre Dame and the rest of the week one slate Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. Welcome to the 2022-23 college football season! The off-season is over and week one is here bringing us an entertaining slate of games starting with the helmet game of all helmet games No. 2 Ohio State vs. No. 5 Notre Dame. With a long season ahead of us, the guy’s dust put the off-season behind them, no more media deals, no more transfer portal, no more USC and UCLA, or realignment talk, it's all ball, as we go back to a podcast that talks about what going on in between the lines from here on out. In this episode, the guys get into some of the interesting storylines of the season starting with Michigan's quarterback competition. While most programs are announcing their starting quarterbacks Jim Harbaugh won't commit to a guy and Jordan thinks that has a chance to set their season off on the wrong foot. In-season quarterback competitions don't work, just ask 2015 Ohio State. While Michigan has no chance to lose against Colorado it's a bad look for the program if a starter isn't announced and given full reign. Michigan has an easy out-of-conference schedule, but we will still be looking to see who steps up on their new-look defense and if there are any offensive playmakers they can count on. After a week zero game against Wyoming, Illinois enters week one with a must-win game against Indiana. With four strong teams in the west, if Illinois wants to reach bowl eligibility, they must beat teams that are worse than them. Tom Allen's campaign to save his job starts here but the guys do not have much faith in Indiana. Both programs enter this game with new starting quarterbacks via the transfer portal, Connor Bazelak will make his first start for Indiana as they look to move on from Michael Penix Jr. while Tommy DeVito enters his second for the Fighting Illini. Expect a steady diet of Josh McCray and Chase Brown, can Tom Allen, who has taken back defensive play calling, fix his defense and put a stop to Illinois’s running game? Penn State enters the 2022-2023 season hoping to regain form. It's been an interesting couple of years for a program that is used to being at the top of the Big Ten food chart. Sean Clifford returns for a sixth season and James Franklin is fresh off a ten-year extension after rumors of greener pastures ended with USC hiring Lincoln Riley. Purdue is coming off a season where they almost captured Big Ten West glory, can they improve and finally capture a West title? These are two programs in similar situations with similar strengths and weaknesses. It should be a great game as both programs look to start their campaign with a win in the final preview of the episode, the guys get into No. 2 Ohio State vs. No. 5 Notre Dame. The AP poll and the media seem to believe in Notre Dame, but we do not expect this game to get ugly, especially in the second quarter. The biggest question for OSU is how their defense looks under Jim Knowles and a revamped defensive staff. This game lost a little luster with Notre Dame dealing with injuries to starters, but OSU will be looking to start dominating as C.J. Stroud looks to lead his team to a national championship, In our weekly pit stops, we do a combined pitstop where we discuss what we're most excited to see this season. Which teams outside the Big Ten we can't wait to watch, and our expectations for our alma mater the Kent State Golden Flashes.

Spoiler: players shouldn’t be vomiting during practice for many reasons, but notably because it’s absolutely bad for players and is a practice that should have died when we all got grossed out by it in Remember the Titans in 2000.  On a more positive note, the pair wrap with a plea to get Maria Taylor in the broadcast booth for “Saturday Night Football” on NBC.

]]> 4216 Silver Bullets Podcast: 2022 Big Ten East Predictions https://www.landgrantholyland.com As we head into “Week 0,” it’s time for the last of our predictions shows as Chip Minnich and I run through how we see the Big Ten East shaking out at season’s end. We see Ohio State’s division very similarly but we still walk through our reasons for where we slot each team and discuss which teams could perform a little better or possibly a little worse in 2022. Before we get to our predictions on how the East will finish up, we discuss some of the other pressing Buckeye news, including some unfortunate injuries from preseason camp, including the loss of Evan Pryor for the entire 2022 season. We were also extremely bummed to hear that Kamryn Babb is once again dealing with a medical setback but at least there’s some hope that he might see the field in a few weeks. With Pryor’s injury, there was a new face in the running backs room this week. We talk about that a little and discuss the “official” Buckeyes who have had their black helmet stripes removed since our show last week. One of them was a running back, so that couldn’t have been better timed. We also touched on the five Associated Press preseason All-Americans from Ohio State, who are all on the offensive side of the ball. There was a mild surprise or two but no shocks and the added bonus is that the defense can play with an even bigger chip on its shoulder this season. Finally, we talked a little bit about the new Big Ten media deal that’s been in the news recently and how that could affect expansion. We know there are rumblings about Oregon, but who else makes sense? We weighed in with our thoughts on that. We hope you enjoy our takes on the B1G East and we welcome your thoughts. Hit us up on Twitter (@SilvrBulletsPod) or email us, and let us know where you’ve got the Ohio State Buckeyes, Michigan Wolverines, Michigan State Spartans, Penn State Nittany Lions, Maryland Terrapins, Rutgers Scarlet Knights, and Indiana Hoosiers.

]]> 4356 I-70 Football Podcast: Previewing the Big Ten Championship Contenders Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. The Big Ten media deal is final, after much speculation the deal has been announced and as expected ESPN is not a part of the deal. The guys discuss the official details of the seven-year deal and what if anything excites them about the details. Jordan is looking forward to the black Friday doubleheader that leads into rivalry week while they both celebrate the Big Ten's Women's Basketball championship being included in the CBS deal. Dante cannot believe he is going to have to download peacock, you can save money in 2022 but if you care about the Big Ten, you will have to join Dante in 2023 to catch football games and a huge portion of basketball games. In the final installment of their Big Ten preview, the guys discuss the three teams who will contend for the championship. Dante and Jordan both agree that Ohio State should come out of the East and reclaim its spot in the Big Ten championship game. Dante believes that Minnesota, led by the 'Encore Four', will break through and win the West. Jordan on the other hand is choosing Wisconsin, despite his heart telling him Minnesota, to get back to the top of the West after an up and down 2021 season. Minnesota is exciting but it is hard to go all in on a team that can lose to Bowling Green and is led by a coach whose schtick may be losing the locker room. Rivalry weekend in the Big Ten should be huge again as Minnesota will have to beat their rival in back-to-back years in hopes to reach Dante's expectations. Real football is here so they guys end the show with their first preview. Week zero is here and it will see three Big Ten teams in action. In the first game, Scott Frost and the Nebraska Cornhuskers travel to Dublin Ireland to face the Northwestern Wildcats. With the reduction of his buyout looming on October 1st Frost cannot afford a slow start and will need his team and newly announced quarterback Casey Thompson to play well. In the second game, Illinois will face Wyoming, a team that was devasted by players transferring out including their starting quarterback. If this were last year Wyoming’s potent offense would be worrisome but without their top players, Illinois should be expected to win this game. The Fighting Illini will be hoping to make a bowl game and with a tough Big Ten schedule, this is a must-win game. In their weekly pitstops, Jordan celebrates the joy that is the Little League World Series. Every year the LLWS for baseball and softball entertain as pre-teens take center stage and make a name for themselves displaying their talent and love for the game. In his pitstop, Dante discussed the Dragon Ball Z Super movie which in his opinion was a slight disappointment and felt rushed.

]]> 1807 Bucketheads: Chatting with Scotty Middleton about Columbus, snacks, his evolving game (08/18/22) https://www.landgrantholyland.com Land-Grant Holy Land’s newest podcast, ‘Bucketheads’ takes you on a journey across the college basketball landscape every episode. The only basketball-focused podcast in the LGHL family of podcasts, co-hosts Connor Lemons and Justin Golba give the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes as well as all the other happenings in the college hoops world. This week, Connor and Justin are joined by four-star small forward Scotty Middleton, who is also the newest member of Ohio State’s 2023 recruiting class. Scotty currently plays for Sunrise Christian Academy in Wichita, but he’s been moving from state to state most of his life. We had the opportunity to hear Scotty’s story, including which city he’ll (probably) want the PA announcer to say he’s from when he gets to Ohio State. We also spoke to Scotty about his official visit, his relationship with the other members of the 2023 class, and his goals for his upcoming senior season at Sunrise. We close with a rapid fire round of quick questions, including asking what his go-to road trip snack is and who would win an arm wrestling match between Chris Holtmann and Jake Diebler. Connor and Justin also took some time to break down Bronny James’ ever-evolving recruitment, and what a commitment to Ohio State would look like. The impacts would extend far beyond the basketball court, that’s for sure.

]]> 4253 Silver Bullets Podcast: 2022 Big Ten West Predictions https://www.landgrantholyland.com With the 2022 college football season looming larger and larger, it’s time for us to do our annual predictions shows. As usual, we start with the Big Ten West while we’re saving the Big Ten best for next week’s show. Chip Minnich and I had to inspect the transfer portal, check the injury reports, and come up with some kind of order in what could be a chaotic Big Ten West this season. Before we get into that, we discuss some of the more timely news of import to Ohio State fans. We start with the removal of the black stripes. It’s always fun to track which players are getting their helmet stripes removed and becoming “official” Buckeyes. It doesn’t always portend how a player’s college career will play out, but it’s an interesting curiosity and it at least shows how that player is displaying his wares to the coaching staff. We’ve also got our responses to Kamryn Babb getting this year’s Block 0 jersey. The young man has been plagued with injury issues since his arrival and we’re hoping he finally gets to show what he can do at some point this season. The offensive players interviewed this week were raving about the OSU defense. Was that some savvy media training in action? An honest barometer of what we can expect from Jim Knowles’ group? Both? Neither? We have our thoughts. And we also had some news this week about Ohio State’s first opponent. We now know that Notre Dame will be down a starting wide receiver. We also know who will be under center for the Fighting Irish this season. After the news segment, we run through our predictions for the B1G West, starting at the bottom. Chip and I were in lockstep for the three teams we think will finish in or near the cellar, but then we had some minor disagreements before once again coming together at the top. In all honesty, it was a difficult exercise because the West could go in a lot of different directions this season and that could ride on how healthy teams stay, which quarterbacks improve, and how teams fill the holes left by their departing starters. We hope you enjoy our takes on the “other” Big Ten division and we welcome your thoughts. Hit us up on Twitter (@SilvrBulletsPod) or email us, and let us know where you’ve got the Purdue Boilermakers, Minnesota Golden Gophers, Wisconsin Badgers, Illinois Fighting Illini, Nebraska Cornhuskers, Iowa Hawkeyes, and Northwestern Wildcats finishing this season.

]]> 3743 I-70 Football Show: B1G new media deal and previewing potential New Year Six bowl teams Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. We are a few weeks away from the start of the 2022-23 football season, so it is time to switch gears from off-season talk to diving headfirst into real football content. What better way to start football season than ranking teams and picking games? In our season preview series, we rank the Big Ten into four tiers: Non-bowl tier, lower-bowl tier, New Year’s Six Bowl tier, and Contenders tier. We also predict records and finishes for all 14 teams leading to 168 games picked. In this episode, Dante and Jordan talk about the three programs we believe have the best chance to make a New Year's Six Bowl game. Before we get into that we discuss the rumors and leaks surrounding the Big Ten's new media deal. While it has not been officially announced there is enough information worth discussing. In a move that is surprising to some the Big Ten's next media deal may not include ESPN. According to sources, the Big Ten is partnering with FOX, CBS, and NBC with exclusive windows at Noon, 3:30 pm, and 7:30 pm respectively. Jordan believes ESPN made a mistake they'll regret by going all in on the SEC and expecting the Big Ten to play second fiddle. Dante questions are fans care what channel the games come on and if there are starting to be too many options on where to watch games. After breaking down the media rights deal the guys get into their preview starting with Purdue. On a rare occurrence, Jordan and Dante both have Purdue at 9-3 with the same wins and losses. Aidan O'Connell enters the season with his draft stock on the rise, can he lead his team to a Big Ten West Championship? Mel Tucker and the Michigan State Spartans are looking to build off of last year but they were ahead of schedule, are they due a step back? How far can this team go without Kenneth Walker III? With their entire secondary returning can they improve after being the worst passing defense in the country last season? Michigan enters the season with high expectations and an enormous amount of turnover, After losing Aidan Hutchinson, David Ojabo, and Dax Hill plus their offensive and defensive coordinator success will be an uphill battle. Any success starts with picking a quarterback and there is a major battle brewing between incumbent starter Cade McNamara and former five-star J.J. McCarthy. The guys get their pit stops out of the way early as Jordan tries to convince Dante to buy Madden 23 and Dante talks about the Pittsburgh Steelers' first preseason game.

(08/10/22) https://www.landgrantholyland.com Every day for the entirety of the Ohio State football season, we will be asking and answering questions about the team, college football, and anything else on our collective minds of varying degrees of importance. If you have a question that you would like to ask, you can tweet us @LandGrant33 or if you need more than 280 characters, send an email HERE. To answer today's "Ask LGHL" question, we went the podcast route, since it was complicated and probably required some follow-up in the moment. So, answering the question sent in by Gary Fugitt, Matt Tamanini asked LGHL's resident football coach Caleb Houser to shed some light on an underappreciated, yet still very impressive, aspect of football gameday operations. Gary asked: "I am constantly amazed at how smoothly they get people in and out of the game, even as they change personnel play-to-play." In this episode, Caleb explains the process how his football team handles quick substitutions and provides insight into how teams prepare for every possible situation that a game could throw at them.

(08/10/22) https://www.landgrantholyland.com On “The Dotted Line”, Land-Grant Holy Land’s Matt Tamanini talks to recruiting experts, LGHL’s recruiting analysts, and prospects themselves to get a unique perspective on the players that will be a part of Ohio State’s future. This will come as no surprise to anyone who pays even the slightest bit of attention to Ohio State football recruiting, but the last couple weeks of July did not go very well for the Buckeyes. After the 2023 class vaulted to the No. 1 position in the country on the strength of three impressive wide receiver commitments, anticipation was building for a wide array of defensive blue-chippers to join the Buckeyes as the month progressed... except not only did that not happen, but they all committed elsewhere, elsewhere, leaving Ohio State scrambling to figure out what is next for its defensive recruiting efforts. In this episode, LGHL recruiting columnist Caleb Houser breaks down what went wrong for the Buckeyes in July, what needs to happen to right the ship, and what is still moving in Ohio State's favor.

]]> 2498 Silver Bullets: Ramping Up for the 2022 OSU Season (08/09/22) https://www.landgrantholyland.com Well, hello there! Chip Minnich and I are excited to become part of the Land-Grant Holy Land team this season. If you’re not familiar with us, well, we’ve been doing the Silver Bullets Podcast together since August of 2018. Chip has been doing it a bit longer, as he and Shannon Sommers hosted the first 25 episodes together before I came aboard. Now, here we are on our 114th episode of the Silver Bullets Podcast and the first at our new home, here at LGHL. Chip and I last recorded in the aftermath of Ohio State’s wile 48-45 Rose Bowl win over Utah, so it’s been a minute. For this episode, we touch on why we left our old place and how excited we are to be here. We also discussed two of the biggest off-season stories of the past several months — the addition of USC and UCLA to the Big Ten, and the coaching changes that Ryan Day made to the OSU staff after the conclusion of the 2021 season. Both Chip and I grew up loathing USC due to the fact that the Trojans wrecked a lot of Ohio State seasons in the Rose Bowl, so we’re both finding it a little surreal to think that they could soon be a conference opponent. We’re also eager to see what lies ahead between now and 2024 in terms of additional expansion. The Buckeyes did a little house cleaning on the defensive coaching staff since last year and we discussed what that might mean for Ohio State’s season to come. We also touched on the important, yet less talked about addition of Justin Frye and how that could improve things for Day’s offense. Finally, we looked ahead to what listeners can expect in the run-up to Ohio State’s 2022 kickoff against Notre Dame. We look forward to bringing you our show every week through the end of the season and then going monthly in the off-season.

]]> 3247 I-70 Football Show: Tier 3 - Low Bowl Tier Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. We are a few weeks away from the 2022-2023 football season, so it is time to switch gears from talking season and dive in headfirst into real football content. What better way to start football season then ranking teams and picking games? In our season preview we rank the Big Ten into four tiers, the non-bowl tier, the low-bowl tier, the NY6 bowl tier and the contender’s tier. We also predict records and finishes for all fourteen teams leading to 168 games picked. In this episode we discuss the three or four teams, depending on who you ask, that will make lower ranked bowl games. Jordan believes that Mike Locksley, an overall bad coach, will stumble into back-to-back bowl games on the shoulders of his talented quarterback Taulia Tagovailoa and his pass catchers Rakim Jarrett and Dontay Demus Jr. While Dante disagrees, they both agree that after a shocking 5-7 season the Fighting Illini will reach six wins and make it to a bowl game in the second year under Bret Bielema. There may be a ceiling to what Illinois can be in the Big Ten but behind Chase Brown and Josh McCray they will be a tough team to face. While Maryland and Illinois may be happy about being placed in this tier the same cannot be said for the next two teams. After winning the Big Ten West and facing Michigan in the championship game Iowa takes a step back. Their defense will be good as always but with some losses on offense and without a change on the offensive staff this team should lose more games than last year. Penn State makes the final team in this tier. Their ceiling will remain limited with Sean Clifford as their starting quarterback. They should have a renewed James Franklin but losing Jahan Dotson, Jaquan Brisker, and Brent Pry will be tough to deal with. This team should be better in the future but with a tough schedule will not contend for the Big Ten East crown. In their weekly pit stop Dante gives a shout out to the Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell new contract extension. Jordan expresses anger about the Deshaun Watson suspension and the overall process. Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

Indiana is getting a lot of 6th place hype which we disagree with whole heartedly, and we discuss why Rutgers can be a bowl team this year.

Rivals' Davis Moseley Discusses (08/04/22) https://www.landgrantholyland.com Land-Grant Holy Land’s newest podcast, ‘Bucketheads’ takes you on a journey across the college basketball landscape every episode. The only basketball-focused podcast in the LGHL family of podcasts, co-hosts Connor Lemons and Justin Golba give the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes as well as all the other happenings in the college hoops world. We are back and we have a BOOM! for Ohio State hoops. The second-ranked player in the state and main priority for Chris Holtmann and his staff, Devin Royal from Pickerington Central, has made his verbal commitment to the Buckeyes. We discussed this, Scotty Middleton’s commitment on Saturday and Dailyn Swain’s plan to drop his top-five on Friday — conveniently right before Middleton’s decision. Also, we were joined by Davis Moseley of Rivals to talk about Royal, Middleton and more. We talked about Ohio State recruiting, Big Ten recruits and some national prospects folks should keep an eye on during the 2022-2023 season.

]]> 1166 I-70 Football Show: Tier Four - Non Bowl Participants Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. We are a few weeks away from the 2022-23 football season, so it is time to switch gears from talking off-season to diving headfirst into real football content. What better way to start football season than ranking teams and picking games? In our season preview, we rank the Big Ten into four tiers, the non-bowl tier, the low-bowl tier, the NY6 bowl tier, and the contender’s tier. We also predict records and finishes for all fourteen teams leading to 168 games picked. Last year Jordan won the competition with a record of 95-73, while Dante was close behind with a record of 93-75. Looking to improve on last year, the guys both agree that Indiana, Northwestern, Rutgers, and Nebraska will not make bowl games in the 2022-23 football season. Not all tiers are created evenly as Rutgers head coach Greg Schiano and Northwestern’s head coach Pat Fitzgerald are safe even with a poor season. On the other hand, this should put the nail in the coffin of the Scott Frost experiment while Tom Allen hopes his administration will show him some love and give him another season. Maybe he will end up with the Jim Harbaugh, “prove it” contract. In their weekly pitstops, Jordan is tired of the Yankees not spending money. It is time to bring back the Yankees who operated with a blank check and would do and pay anything to win; it is no coincidence they have not won since they closed the checkbooks. Dante is tired of the double standard in the NBA where players are expected to be loyal to teams while teams are anything but loyal to their players and will lie to them or trade them in a heartbeat.

]]> 2618 Buck Off Podcast: Defensive recruiting struggles, B1G media day takeaways, and a fall Camp preview https://landgrantholyland.com/ On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I am joined by Jordan Williams, and we get into Ohio State’s upcoming season for the Buckeyes after we heard from Ryan Day and the player representatives at Big Ten Media Day. Before we get into the players on the roster we have a conversation about the current recruiting struggles the Buckeyes are facing. In this conversation we discuss the recent recruitments, and how recruiting is not straightforward. We discuss the variables that effect recruitments and when the defensive recruiting might take a turn to the positive again. After that, we get into our discussions from the media days for the Big Ten. We start the the head ball coach Ryan Day, who definitely should not be fired. His expectations for the defense sound high, but are actually pretty reasonable. We then get into his comments about how 11-2 is an unsuccessful season for the Buckeyes. Once back from the break, we get into C.J. Stroud, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and Ronnie Hickman’s appearance. The Buckeyes showed a lot of confidence on the podium and each showed a new side to themselves in their conversations. The confidence and conviction has me and Jordan excited for the Fall camp to start. To close out the show, we discuss Ohio State starting Fall camp next week. We get into potential position battles, our biggest questions, and a relatively injury free roster starting the Fall camp.

]]> 4236 I-70 Football Show: A New College Football Players Association Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. After a spirit discussion around if the show should be called I-80 Football Show, we get into Penn State starting quarterback Sean Clifford hoping to lead the charge of a new college football players association with Penn State at the forefront. Clifford and the association have begun talks with the Big Ten regarding health insurance for sports related injuries post career, a representative on each campus to support students and advocate especially around medical conversations and revenue sharing from the media rights deal. The guys discuss what a player’s association could look like as well as if the players should unionize. Plus, they get into how revenue sharing could work, is it fair if only football players get paid? What would it look like for all athletes to benefit from revenue sharing? After a brief conversation about the future of the XFL and USFL the guys finish the Big Ten schedule preview. It is time for the Big Ten to change the scheduling model because it is rough! The best games in the last few weeks revolve around Iowa, Minnesota, Purdue, and Wisconsin. After a remarkably close race in 2021 the fight to win the Big Ten West should be exciting as the champion will be decided in the last few weeks. In their weekly pitstops, Jordan is in search of a support group since he plans to buy Madden 23. He cannot stop himself from buying it every year despite the fact it hardly changes and usually gets worse. Dante is anti-pre ordering video games. After multiple video games have come out unfinished Dante thinks it is a waste to pre-order video games especially when they have not released game play. Stay tuned as next week we begin our season preview where we break the teams into tiers and predict their records.

After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan.

After a spirit discussion around if the show should be called I-80 Football Show, we get into Penn State starting quarterback Sean Clifford hoping to lead the charge of a new college football players association with Penn State at the forefront. Clifford and the association have begun talks with the Big Ten regarding health insurance for sports related injuries post career, a representative on each campus to support students and advocate especially around medical conversations and revenue sharing from the media rights deal. The guys discuss what a player’s association could look like as well as if the players should unionize. Plus, they get into how revenue sharing could work, is it fair if only football players get paid? What would it look like for all athletes to benefit from revenue sharing?

After a brief conversation about the future of the XFL and USFL the guys finish the Big Ten schedule preview. It is time for the Big Ten to change the scheduling model because it is rough! The best games in the last few weeks revolve around Iowa, Minnesota, Purdue, and Wisconsin. After a remarkably close race in 2021 the fight to win the Big Ten West should be exciting as the champion will be decided in the last few weeks.

In their weekly pitstops, Jordan is in search of a support group since he plans to buy Madden 23. He cannot stop himself from buying it every year despite the fact it hardly changes and usually gets worse. Dante is anti-pre ordering video games. After multiple video games have come out unfinished Dante thinks it is a waste to pre-order video games especially when they have not released game play. Stay tuned as next week we begin our season preview where we break the teams into tiers and predict their records.

]]> 7204 Buck Off Podcast: Breakable records in 2022, SEC Preview, and an opportunity to meet Ryan Day https://landgrantholyland.com/ On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I am joined by Jordan Williams, and we get into Ohio State’s most breakable 2022 records and some of the recent NIL news around the football program. To start, we discuss the announcement of Ohio State NIL fund The Foundations $1000 entry event to meet Ryan Day and Chris Holtmann. We talk about the amount of money that goes into running a football program in the modern age. Then we get into a conversation about how people in charge can not be mad at boosters because they had every opportunity to provide safe guards before the supreme court ruling. After that we get into a discussion about the ACC, SEC, and the B1G media days that are happening this week and next week. The B1G meets next week so we discuss the big conversation topics that might get brought up. We talk about the most interesting stories out of the SEC and ACC including a lot of sports business talk in regards to the TV deals. We also discuss the leverage of each conference in their current states. Once back from the break, we get into jersey numbers and then we get into a long conversation about the records we think will be broken next year. Outside of single game records we narrow the focus down to offense and talk about why C.J. Stroud and Jaxon Smith-Njigba can rewrite the record books. To close out the show, we get into our SEC preview going through all our categories. We talk about why Alabama and Georgia are still the favorites to win the conference. The rest of the conference is playing catch up and we discuss if there are any real threats. We close out the show with a PTI style Big Finish to go through the biggest storylines for the SEC entering the season.

The only basketball-focused podcast in the LGHL family of podcasts, co-hosts Connor Lemons and Justin Golba give the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes as well as all the other happenings in the college hoops world. The Buckeyes are on several “final schools” lists for 2023 targets, with decisions looming in the next few weeks. With that in mind, Connor and Justin did a recruiting roundup of sorts, giving updates on the Buckeyes’ main 2023 targets and when we may get some final decisions. The recruits the guys touched on this week are: Devin Royal Scotty Middleton Xavier Booker Dailyn Swain Taison Chatman Lawrent Rice With this season’s five-man freshman class and several other players expected to return, Ohio State only has space for one or two more additions to their 2023 recruiting class. The decisions of players who are deciding soon (Middleton, Royal) could have a big impact on those who aren’t as close to a decision, like Rice and Booker. Before they closed out this week’s episode, the guys talk about Ohio State’s non-conference schedule While it sucks pretty hard for the home fans, there was never any chance Ohio State was going to add a tough home game with the potential for five ranked teams already on the schedule on the road/ at neutral venues.

After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. In this episode the guys discuss what they are most excited for in the upcoming football season. Jordan is excited for the communal aspect of watching football games and interacting with people on social media. Dante cannot wait to use football as an excuse not to leave the house. While we are both looking forward to hopefully watching Clemson's further demise. Picking up from a couple of weeks ago we get into weeks five, six and seven of the upcoming seasons. Once again, the Big Ten needs help with scheduling as weeks five and six are going to be tough to find much enjoyment. At least week six has Ohio State versus Michigan State, even though that could just be a blowout like last year. Week seven is more interesting with Penn State playing Michigan and Wisconsin playing Michigan State. Taking a step away from college football the guys get into Roger Goodell mentioning that Sunday Ticket will be on a streaming service in 2023 while some NFL "analyst" think Lamar Jackson is not a top ten quarterback, in their pit stop Jordan talks about some fun basketball games as LeBron plays in the Drew League and TBT is at Rucker Park. Dante thinks Tiger Woods and all legends need to know when it is time to hang it up and retire. Connect with us on Twitter: Jordan: @JordanW330 Dante: @DanteM10216 Learn more about your ad choices.

After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. USC and UCLA broke the internet by joining the Big Ten causing us to throw out the show plan. We spend the whole episode breaking down this groundbreaking move from all angles. USC, with their brand, and Oregon with their play was the only thing keeping the Pac-12 alive. Now USC and their Los Angeles counterparts are leaving for the Big Ten. We discuss the impact this has on the Pac-12 and how we should have seen this coming after the Larry Scott hiring essentially destroyed the conferences reputation. Next, we discuss the aftershocks. Will the Big 12 play the aggressor and try to poach a few teams from the Pac-12? Oregon and Washington are they dream but with their reported interest in the Big Ten, could Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado and Utah end up in a 16 team Big 12? Would the Big 12 consider going to 18 teams and adding Cal and Stanford? Plus, what could the Big Ten do next? Does Notre Dame reconsider, will they add Oregon and Washington? How long until the ACC breaks their grant of rights and schools end up in the SEC? With all the commotion it's easy to forget the best part which is the actual games. The guys get into the on-field impact including future scheduling. The Big Ten is going to have a hard deciding the three protected opponents in their new 3-6-6 scheduling model. Should they make Ohio State vs. USC a yearly game? What do they do with secondary rivalries like Michigan/Michigan State and Ohio State/Penn State? Jordan discusses his proposed permanent games while Dante switches things up to find the best match ups. Lastly this move sends a signal to the Big Ten. Who will take note and strive to get better?

My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. In this episode the guys preview some more of the Big Ten football schedule. After a dud in week two, weeks three and four bring some heat. In week three we get an Oklahoma vs Nebraska rematch, last year was a close loss with a new quarterback and a redesigned coaching staff can Nebraska get a big win to start their season? While lesser games SU vs Maryland will be an interesting game as Maryland hopes to reach back-to-back bowl games. Michigan State wants to prove that their 2021 season was not a fluke, they can do that by going to Washington and dominating a solid opponent. In week four we have two candidates for best game of the year. Michigan State vs. Minnesota will be an intense game of two teams in similar places. Both ahead of schedule and hoping to break through their ceiling to reach the top of the mountain but they must go through their rival to get there. Both teams hope to win their division in 2022 but this game will go a long way to seeing which team is further along. Wisconsin comes into Columbus hoping that Braelon Allen can lead them to a pivotal win over the Buckeyes. The guys get into some basketball news as well as the Big Ten had nine players drafted in the 2022 NBA Draft, three of which went in the lottery. In their weekly pit stops Jordan thanks all the people who put hours of work into preview magazines. We would not be able to do our job without them. Dante sets the table to celebrate 50 years of Title IX. We have come a long way in 50 years and have a lot to celebrate but we still have much more work to do. The success of Women’s college basketball and softball as well as women’s international soccer has shown that women's sports is a viable sports product when invested in. It always has been, but the masses are finally starting to pay attention. Here is to more growth and success in Women's sports for the next 50 years and beyond.

]]> 2311 I-70 Football Show: Happy Fathers Day & Juneteenth Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. It’s a double holiday! Happy Juneteenth and Happy Father’s Day! We hope you’re celebrating with the cookout to end all cookouts. The guys discuss the origin of Juneteenth, a holiday that the actual end of slavery. June 19th, 1865, two and a half years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation, the slaves in Galveston, Texas finally learned of their freedom marking the last known day of slavery in the United States. They also discuss good and bad gifts to receive on Father’s Day. In this episode there is not much Big Ten news to talk about so the guys get some things off their chest. Dante doesn’t believe that Jordan should have to mow his own grass since he’s rent and they both have opinions on moving, moving cost, and what is an acceptable age to still be lifting things yourself. They also get into the NBA Finals; Steph Curry led the Warriors and captured his fourth ring and first finals MVP. What is Steph’s legacy, and where does Jayson Tatum rank after a bad final’s performance. Lastly it is not a Big Ten show without some Big Ten content so they discuss what week two games they’re most interested in. In their weekly pit stop Jordan discusses the importance of men being able to change a tire, owning some tools, and how nice it is to save money by working on things yourself versus paying for it. Dante provides a word of inspiration reminding us that social media is not real life and not to use it to compare what you’ve accomplished.

To start on this episode, we take the heat outside and take it to get into this hot recruiting weekend that brings a long list of top recruits to Columbus. I get into some recent conversations surrounding Brandon Inniss, Carnell Tate, and a few of the other recruits who will be on campus this weekend. After that, I discuss some other recruiting stories that will drive the next few weeks and some of the experts have me feeling confident heading into the end of June. I also talk about Samson Okunlola’s visit and how the new coaches have their work cut out for themselves in the 2023 class. Marcus Freeman was interviewed and made some questionable remarks about his lam mater. i discuss why it is a big deal and why it is not as big a deal that the comments were made out to be by the media (self-included). For impartiality reasons I get into some other coaches who have famously stepped in it during press conferences. For the last part of the show, we get into the “What ifs” that can lead to Ohio State winning a national championship and a conversation about the worst aspect of Ohio State football in 2021. I close out the show with my final thoughts on what this month of recruiting will mean for the Buckeyes. Learn more about your ad choices.

After that, I discuss some other recruiting stories that will drive the next few weeks and some of the experts have me feeling confident heading into the end of June. I also talk about Samson Okunlola’s visit and how the new coaches have their work cut out for themselves in the 2023 class.

Marcus Freeman was interviewed and made some questionable remarks about his lam mater. i discuss why it is a big deal and why it is not as big a deal that the comments were made out to be by the media (self-included). For impartiality reasons I get into some other coaches who have famously stepped in it during press conferences.

For the last part of the show, we get into the “What ifs” that can lead to Ohio State winning a national championship and a conversation about the worst aspect of Ohio State football in 2021.

I close out the show with my final thoughts on what this month of recruiting will mean for the Buckeyes.

]]> 4001 Bucketheads: NBA Draft looms for Branham and Liddell, Carmen’s Crew is on hiatus (06/14/22) Land-Grant Holy Land’s newest podcast, ‘Bucketheads’ takes you on a journey across the college basketball landscape every episode. The only basketball-focused podcast in the LGHL family of podcasts, co-hosts Connor Lemons and Justin Golba give the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes as well as all the other happenings in the college hoops world. After a two-week break due to illness (a non-COVID pause, if you will), Connor and Justin are back to talk TBT, NBA and NCAA basketball. With the recent news that Carmen’s Crew will not be participating in this year’s TBT tournament, what does that mean for the future of the team? Could this actually be the end of the Carmen’s Crew dynasty? They then get into the NBA Draft, including what all the most recent mock drafts are saying about Malaki Branham and E.J. Liddell — and also who the Cavaliers are taking in each draft. Most experts are expecting the Cavaliers to pass on Branham, but will they actually grab the two-time Mr. Basketball if he’s still on the board? We close it with a game of “Transfer portal player or U.S. Congressman?” where Justin is forced to guess if the person Connor names is a player still in the transfer portal or a sitting member of Congress.

To start the show, we take some time to learn about Bill and how he got his start on the Ohio State beat. This leads to a discussion about Ohio high school sports and Bill’s path to covering the Buckeyes. After that, we get down to some business discussing Ohio State’s recruiting camps over the past two weeks and some of the major storylines out of there. We talk 8th graders getting recruited and how players at camps are being evaluated. We discuss the coaches at the camps as well and what we can learn by seeing how they are in that environment. Then we throw Bill into the Buck Off fire with a conversation about Corey Dennis’ impact on the staff and in recruiting. After the Dennis conversation we talk about the offensive line and the expectations Justin Frye has on his shoulders. We talk about development, recruiting, and what the new coach is bringing to the table. For the last part of the show, we get into Ohio State’s schedule and we discuss some of Bill’s upcoming work. This leads to some conversation about Rutgers football, Big Ten divisions, and if Penn State is truly Ohio State’s rival.

]]> 2394 Buck Off Podcast: Ohio State Football Camps, SEC Arrogance, and Ohio State's NIL Budget https://landgrantholyland.com/ On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I am joined by Jordan Williams to discuss the recruiting news out of Ohio State’s summer football camps. To start the show, discuss the the first week of Ohio State’s busy June with their summer football camps underway. There is an 8th grade phenom, a local southern Ohio product getting an offer, and some more clarity on the quarterback position in the 2023 class. After that, we get into the conversation coming out of the SEC meetings about an SEC-only playoff. This comes right before the June conference leadership meetings and when playoff expansion talk ramps up. We talk about the reality of this thinly veiled threat and how SEC arrogance could cost everybody a lot of money in the long run. Once we get back from the break, we discuss Ryan Day and Gene Smith’s presentation about Ohio State’s NIL expectations to businesses and donors. We talk about the slippery slope of NIL and how the Buckeyes are doing their best to stay aggressive while maintaining order. For the last part of the show I named my most important players on the defensive side of the ball going into Fall camp and Jordan decides if he agrees with my thoughts on the players chosen. This leads to a conversation about expectations from older players and the younger players at each position.

To start the show, we discuss the beef between Texas A&M coach Jimbo Fisher and Alabama’s Nick Saban in regards to the Aggies’ recruiting practices. We dissect Saban’s initial comments and why this was so shocking to see in the news cycle. This also leads to a discussion about the current state of recruiting and how college football has always lived in the gray area –- and I do my best Jimbo Fisher impression. After that, we discuss Jordan Addison’s decision to transfer to USC as well as my article about why Ohio State should always be looking to add talent like Addison in the offseason. We get into why Ohio State might be looking for a similar level player in the future at another position and why getting a player like Addison is more of a guarantee than anything on the roster. We also discuss the exciting recruiting month ahead including two potential VIP visitors who the Buckeyes hope to see. This leads to us discussing the importance of visits and the importance of getting the player into the room as a coach.

The guys discuss the reasons they think Dennis has earned a greater level of respect and the fact he actually does more than most people think. Once they get back from the quick break, the guys discuss the month of recruiting ahead. They talk about some positions with major question marks still and how they might get answered this month. They get into a conversation about what we can hope for in the defensive back recruiting from the new coaches on the staff and close out the conversation going back to look at why they should trust Larry Johnson. The guys close out the show with a discussion about the removal of divisions in college football and give their final thoughts on an interesting mock draft from earlier in the week.

]]> 3469 I-70 Football Show: 2023 Mock Draft, Players to Watch (05/09/22) Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. Happy Belated Mother's Day to all the moms out there, we hope your significant others and sons made you feel special. We start the show discussing buying mom a house when you make it and why we find it funny when players buy their dads a car. Plus will Primetime stay at Jackson State? and is he getting the credit he deserves for the recognition he's bringing to HBCUs? Dane Bruegler of The Athletic released his way too early 2023 mock draft and it featured multiple Big Ten players. If a QB needy team has the first pick will C.J. Stroud be the first player off the board? Is Will Levis really an early first-round pick? If so what does that say for Penn State's handling of him? Should they have tabbed Levis over Sean Clifford? One surprise in the mock draft is Ohio State's senior defensive end Zach Harrision. His production hasn't matched his five-star status but at 6'6 260+ pounds he runs a sub 4.5 forty-yard dash and has the measurables for a first-round pick. Can he improve enough in his last season to get his name called on day one? In their weekly pit stops, Dante discusses playoff basketball and why people have different standards for the Boston Celtics and the Milwaukee Bucks. Jordan wants to know if Bryce Young can do enough to get drafted in the first round? He has the talent but at 6ft, 195 pounds he is shorter and weighs less than just about every current NFL starter.

]]> 4227 I-70 Football Show: Recapping NFL Draft for former Ohio State, Big Ten Players (05/02/22) Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. The 2022 NFL Draft has ended marking another year that the “Big Two” ran laps around the rest of college football. Forty-eight Big Ten players got their names called and a multitude of others signed undrafted free agent deals and accepted invites to mini camps. The SEC continued to dominate with 65 total selections, including a record-breaking 15 from the National Champion Georgia Bulldogs. After the B1G’s 48, the next closest conference had 25 selections while “blue bloods” Clemson and Texas combined for two total players drafted. Penn State lead the Big Ten with eight players drafted followed by Ohio State with six. Every team in the Big Ten had at least one player drafted aside from the Northwestern Wildcats. With the Nittany Lions leading the Big Ten in draft selections including a first-round pick and multiple second-round picks, Jordan wants to know if Penn State failed by only going 7-5 in 2021. Overall, the Big Ten had seven — eight if you include Jamison Williams — first-round picks. A showing the conference should be very proud of. With their weekly pitstops, Dante highlights the USFL and their entertaining football games. Jordan agrees and hopes that it succeeds and becomes to the NFL what the G-League is to the NBA. Jordan thinks the Colts SHOULD win the AFC South for the first time since 2014. They’ve had a solid off-season so far so here’s hoping it translates to the field.

]]> 5810 Buck Off Podcast: Live NFL Draft Reactions, Projecting Ohio State transfer success, and C.J. Stroud going 1st overall https://landgrantholyland.com/ On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” Chris and Jordan Williams discuss Ohio State’s Spring Game, and the questions they still have. To start the show, they discuss their experiences at the game watching the Buckeyes for the first time in 2022. They then talk about the size of the stadium and how much different seeing everything happening live feels. After that, they get into what the Spring Game means for the Buckeyes as they head into next season. They also talk about Jim Knowle’s defense, starting with the defensive backfield and then talking about the depth in the secondary and on the defensive line. Then Chris and Jordan get into some discussion about the expectations for a linebacker group and pass rush that they don’t yet know a lot about. They also discuss Ryan Day’s offense and the answers we got on Saturday. They break down the talent in the backfield and how much is also present in the quarterback room. They next get into the Buckeyes figuring out the tight end room, why the receiver transition might not be seamless, and then close out the offensive conversation with the biggest question mark on that side of the ball: the offensive line. The Buckeyes have built a steady pipeline from Florida to Columbus, so the pair also gets into why that has recently resurged and talks about the recruits that the Buckeyes have landed recently.

]]> 7371 Bucketheads: Team 124’s roster is starting to take shape thanks to transfer portal (04/28/22) Land-Grant Holy Land’s newest podcast, ‘Bucketheads’ takes you on a journey across the college basketball landscape every episode. The only basketball-focused podcast in the LGHL family of podcasts, co-hosts Connor Lemons and Justin Golba give the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes as well as all the other happenings in the college hoops world. This week we caught up on all of the happening of the Ohio State men’s basketball program — from the roster to coaching staff to future recruits. What will the lineup look like with several players who can “swing” between the 2, 3, and 4 positions, but few with experience at point guard? When will the coaching staff be finalized, and could we see a recent Buckeye hooper get added to the staff as part of the support staff? We then drafted our “all-time” Ohio State teams, but only went back to 2000 because we’re naïve millennials who weren’t around to watch the likes of Jerry Lucas and so on. Did we leave anyone out? Did we include someone who shouldn’t be there?

]]> 4393 I-70 Football Show: NFL Draft Edition Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. After a few weeks off, Dante and Jordan return to the podcast to talk the NFL Draft. The 2022 draft is less than a week away, airing Thursday through Saturday, and some Big Ten players are hoping to change their lives forever. Despite in-person draft attendance dwindling there are still four Big Ten players — Chris Olave, Garrett Wilson, George Karlaftis, and Aidan Hutchinson — attending the draft. Dante and Jordan discuss NFL Network’s Lance Zierlein’s Mock Draft 3.0. Does Aidan Hutchinson to the Lions make sense? Are the Jaguars making a mistake taking unproven Travon Walker and his high upside over Hutchinson? Will Chris Olave fall to the 23rd pick and is it because he skipped the bowl game? Why are there no Big Ten offensive lineman projected in the first round? The guys try to answer all these questions and more. In their weekly pitstops, Jordan discusses adulthood and landscaping. Why is everything expensive and should he invest in his lawn or just handle what grass is already there? Dante discusses grilling, smoking, and treating himself to a nice steak occasionally.

]]> 2120 Buck Off Podcast: Remembering Dwayne Haskins, Spring game superlatives, and recruiting visitors https://landgrantholyland.com/ On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” Jordan Williams is back this week to discuss Ohio State’s Spring game, Before the guys into the Spring Game, they take some time to discuss and remember Dwayne Haskins. The show starts on a somber note, but the guys take some time to talk about the legacy Dwayne left behind. The guys then discuss what they’re most intrigued about entering the Spring Game. A long discussion about the offensive line, defensive line, and who winning that battle is more important for the outlook of the team. They also discuss the receivers, Devin Brown potential, and more. After that, the guys give out their picks for some Spring Game superlatives.

This week during spring practice, Cade Stover moved back to tight end and we get into why this move will be beneficial. We take a look at why Stover potentially made this move and why this is not a problem of depth at the tight end position. We also discuss how this could mean the linebacker position is in a good place. The other spring storylines we discuss include the new “Jack” linebacker position, and the king of the jungle. We also get into the offensive line and how the group can actually be the biggest factor in the offensive success. After that, we discuss the new NIL Fund for Ohio State athletes and how this might impact the football program. We talk about the moral ambiguity of a charity dedicated to paying athletes and why this might be a little off putting to some. Then we get into the board members and how this can be beneficial for Ohio State, but won’t realistically change much. Blue bloods are all the rave right now, so I give you the be all end all criteria of what makes a college football blue blood that was featured on The Athletic.

The only basketball-focused podcast in the LGHL family of podcasts, co-hosts Connor Lemons and Justin Golba give the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes as well as all the other happenings in the college hoops world. During this week’s episode, we catch up on all of the news that we’ve missed over the past two weeks. We start by giving a big picture look at Ohio State’s loss to Villanova in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Villanova was obviously the better, more well-coached team. But did the Buckeyes leave it all out there and give them their best punch? We think so. We then discuss Malaki Branham’s future in Columbus — will the pain of this year’s tournament loss impact his decision at all? With Branham climbing mock drafts before the NBA combine even starts, it’s looking less and less likely that we will see him in an Ohio State jersey again. We close by rambling about who we think will be filling the two vacant assistant coaching spots as well as which potential transfers Ohio State could go after. Will the Buckeyes add a former Ohio State point guard to their coaching staff who we’re already very familiar with? And will Holtmann and Diebler land a dynamic wing from the portal — a la a Terrence Shannon or Jalen Bridges?

]]> 3018 I-70 Basketball Show: Final Four Edition Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. After a forced week off due to technical issues the guys are back talking basketball in this weeks episode. Before talking March Madness they rank levels of basketball as a product, the NBA is clearly first and Men's college basketball is last. Find out why Dante and Jordan think Men's college basketball is the worst basketball product and what they rank above it. The Men's Final Four is set and it's a who's who of NCAA blue bloods as the magnificent run by St. Peters is ended. In coach K's final year we get a showdown of the heavy hitters, Duke versus North Carolina and Kansas versus Villanova for all the marbles. Will Duke send Coach K into retirement with a national championship game appearance? If Duke win's is this proof that sports can be rigged? On the Women's side there is still one Big Ten team standing as Michigan has a game against Louisville for a sport in the Final Four. While we won't get an Iowa versus Uconn showdown the Women's final four will include South Carolina and Stanford. Uconn will have to upset No. 1 seed NC State tonight for a spot in the Final Four. Dante let's out some frustrating as LeBron continues to stat pad while the Lakers are still losing. With two week left in the season the battle for the play in tournament is heating up. Will LeBron make first team All-NBA despite his teams record? Should Demar Derozan or Luka Doncic has a better shot at first team? In their weekly pit stops Jordan discuss his experience at the UFC event in Columbus this past weekend. Dante talks about Winning Time and why more people should watch it.

]]> 5630 Buck Off Podcast: New Silver Bullets, Ohio State's Pro Day, and most interesting teams outside of Ohio State https://landgrantholyland.com/ On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I am joined, as always, by Jordan Williams to about Ohio State’s exciting energy surrounding the defense. This week during Spring practice the defensive line talked to the media and gave us a ton of exciting stuff to talk about. We discuss Jack Sawyer’s expectations for the defense and how complacency got in the way last year. We also talk about Jerron Cage discussing the new vibes and Tyliek Williams becoming a more well rounded player. After that, we discuss the Pro Day for the Buckeyes who participated. Master Teague flashed incredible athleticism and many of the unsung guys got to make some noise in front of NFL evaluators. The real winner of the Pro Day was none other than C.J. Stroud who made a huge impression on the scouts in the building. Once we get back from the break we discuss why NFL evaluators are so bad at evaluating quarterbacks and we give some important analysis on the position itself. Keon Keeley visited which leads to a conversation about Notre Dame’s recruiting strategy and why this recruitment is an important battle in the midwest. Notre Dame fans are confident, but we give them quite a few reasons why they shouldn’t feel like Keeley is a lock. With recruiting we then go on a long tangent about quarterbacks in 2023 and 2024 classes and how Ohio State will recruit them. Lastly, we discuss the most interesting teams to us in college football outside of Ohio State. We discuss why some big programs might be fraudulent.

Welcome back, folks, happy March Madness and happy first week of Spring! As Ohio State fans, the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament might not have brought us the results we wanted after the opening weekend, but there was no shortage of drama as the field of 68 was whittled down to just 16. Fortunately, the Ohio State women showed up in the first round with a win over Missouri State.  While the maddest of the madness might be behind us, this weekend brings three 15-seeds between the men’s and women’s tourneys competing in their respective Sweet Sixteens.  Nothing is guaranteed: On the men’s side, three of four one-seeds remain, but all got pushed in the second round and have tough roads ahead.

We begin the show discussing the Ohio State’s match up against Loyola-Chicago and how the expectations for the Buckeyes are anyone’s guess. We talk about their injuries and how the Buckeyes getting just healthy enough could lead to a run. Then we finish off with why March Madness is the best. After that, we get into a discussion about the biggest question mark position groups on the roster. The Buckeyes have a loaded roster and tons of talent, but there are a few position groups we just don’t fully have a picture for. We ask some questions and try to answer them. Then we get into the scholarship limit and why the Buckeyes will probably need to see some people leave before Fall camp starts. We list off some players and discuss the positions and players that we don’t see having clear paths to playing time. Lastly, we discuss the schedule for the Buckeyes and we get into the first four games of the season. We talk about expectations for Notre Dame under Freeman, the two pay games, and why opening up with Wisconsin in conference play should be incredibly interesting.

]]> 2299 Bucketheads: Previewing Ohio State's First Round NCAA Tournament Game Against Loyola-Chicago (03/17/22) https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ Land-Grant Holy Land’s newest podcast, ‘Bucketheads’ takes you on a journey across the college basketball landscape every episode. The only basketball-focused podcast in the LGHL family of podcasts, co-hosts Connor Lemons and Justin Golba give the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes as well as all the other happenings in the college hoops world. ‘Bucketheads’ will be released every Thursday morning throughout the regular season. During this week’s episode, we thoroughly discuss seven-seed Ohio State’s matchup with 10-seed Loyola Chicago in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. Clearly, the Buckeye fanbase is pessimistic about this game and many folks don’t see Ohio State advancing to the round of 32. But are there reasons to be optimistic?  Connor and Justin explain why E.J. Liddell should have plenty of space to make plays and why feeding Zed Key (if healthy) early and often will be critical to the Buckeyes’ chances of advancing. They also analyze the intriguing coaching matchup between Chris Holtmann — who has made the tournament every season with Ohio State — and first-year Loyola-Chicago head coach Drew Valentine, who is coaching in his first NCAA Tournament.  They then look at the reasons to be concerned about this game. Can Ohio State stop Loyola’s two star guards from blowing right past them, as has been the issue in recent weeks? Will they get the production from Joey Brunk and Key that they need to dominate the glass, and can they take advantage of a weak rebounding team and give themselves second-chance opportunities?  Connect with the Podcast: Twitter: @BucketheadsLGHL Connect with Connor: Twitter: @lemons_connor Connect with Justin: Twitter: @justin_golba Learn more about your ad choices.

He gave an update (kind of) on Zed Key and Kyle Young’s health, and went into detail about what make’s Loyola’s defense so effective, especially against the pass. He praised Loyola guard Lucas Williamson, saying he is “Without a doubt an NBA player.” He also gave insight into how much last season’s first-round loss weighs on the team heading into this game, and the differences between last season and this season. Finally, the Ohio State head coach talked about Malaki Branham, and how much weight has been put on the Big Ten Freshman of the Year’s shoulders. He conceded that sometimes his slenderness/slight frame makes it difficult for him to guard bigger, physical guards, “He’s an 18 year old kid, and sometimes the size and strength is a problem.

My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. It's selection Sunday which means it is officially March Madness!! Nine Big Ten teams made the Men's tournament led by No. 3 seeds Purdue and Wisconsin. Six teams made the Women's tournament led by No. 2 Iowa. Dante and Jordan have much more faith in the Women making a run versus the Men. Despite having nine teams in the tournament the guys are predicting that up to six could lose during the first weekend. Can the Iowa Women's basketball team make a run to the finals? Jordan is hoping for a Caitlyn (Curry) Clark showdown versus UConn’s Paige Bueckers. The Big Ten tournament has wrapped up with Iowa beating Purdue 75-66. Congratulations to Iowa University for winning the Men's and Women's basketball tournament. It's been a banner year for the Hawkeyes as the Football team won the West Division and earned a spot in the Big Ten Championship game. College Football has slowed down, but the NFL never stops, the guys get into the Russ Trade, Brady's return to football and the other news that broke this week. In their weekly pitstops Jordan discussing Kent State making the Mid-American Conference basketball championship game only to be blown out by 20 points after having four players suspended for a social media video dissing Akron.

(03/10/22) https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ Following every Ohio State football and select basketball games, LGHL will be bringing you an instant recap and analysis breaking down the game and previewing what’s next for the Buckeyes. The Ohio State men’s basketball Buckeyes followed a familiar script on Thursday night in the second round of the Big Ten Tournament. They got up to a 13-point lead in the first half before things slowly, but surely, slipped away after halftime. Chris Holtmann’s sixth-seeded squad ended up losing to 11th-seeded Penn State 71-68. In a podcast recorded literally minutes after the latest OSU MBB collapse, Justin Golba and Matt Tamanini broke down the game, looked forward to the tournament, and discussed Holtmann’s status as the head coach of the program. There’s no doubt that injuries to Kyle Young, Zed Key, and Meechie Johnson Jr. have hampered the Buckeyes’ ability to close the season on a more positive note, but the troubles that they’ve experienced down the stretch — second-half collapses, defensive inefficiences, and a roster without a reliable third scorer — have been on display all year. So, do these repeated problems point to an issue with how Holtmann is running the program? Justin and Matt discuss that in the episode and more. They also get into what needs to change — other than getting Young and Key back — for the Buckeyes to have any shot at winning a game or two in the Big Dance.

]]> 3025 LGHL Uncut: Chris Holtmann Discusses Injuries, Struggles Down the Stretch, Previews B1G Tournament (03/09/22) Throughout the season, Land-Grant Holy Land will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conference, but also from individual interview sessions. On Wednesday, March 9, Ohio State men's basketball coach Chris Holtmann met with the media to provide a preview of the upcoming Big Ten Basketball Tournament in Indianapolis. The Buckeyes will open their 2022 postseason by taking on the winner of Wednesday's matchup between No. 11 Penn State and No. 14 Minnesota. Holtmann gave an update on his team's various injuries and Justice Sueing remains unavailable — as he has been for most of the season. Kyle Young will not play on Thursday, but there is still hope that he will return from his latest concussion at some point before the end of the year. Other Buckeyes who have been battling injuries — like Zed Key, Meechie Johnson Jr., and mothers — will be available to varying degrees for the B1G Tourney. The head coach also discussed what he is hoping to see from his team in Indianapolis and whether or not a deep-run to build momentum or an early-ish exit to rest up would be better for the team.

After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. In this episode the guys acknowledge the superstar that is Caitlyn Clark better known as Caitlyn Curry. After leading Iowa to the Big Ten tournament championship can she lead Iowa to a national title? The Men's Big Ten tournament is set, and we discuss potential upsets. Will Nebraska beat Ohio State again? Is Illinois going to get upset? Purdue, while not the No. 1 seed is the best team in the Big Ten will they ultimately win the crown? We get into all that and more. Jordan is frustrated with the WNBA and how little growth they've shown. Should the WNBA separate from the NBA or will that destroy the league? Plus, Jordan has a full proof way to expand the WNBA by a minimum of six teams, Dante hopes, maybe foolishly, that there is not another round of super teams in the NBA after the old heads finally retire. Stay tuned to hear our predictions of who will come out of the West, will it be the Suns or someone else? In their weekly pitstop Jordan and Dante talk about podcasting and how it has become toxic.

During this episode, we heard from the head coaches of both Ohio State and Michigan as well as select players following Michigan’s 75-69 victory over the Buckeyes on senior day in Columbus. The conversation on Michigan’s end mostly focused on adjustments they made following their loss to the Buckeyes last month in Ann Arbor. The conversation for Ohio State consisted of more shrugs, “I’m not sures”, and saying that they simply “did not bring the necessary focus and effort” for today’s game. Ohio State shot 48% as a team, but turnovers and defensive rebounding kept the ball out of their hands for more time than they would have liked. Phil Martelli complimented Ohio State's fans, saying that it was a “Very cool atmosphere” in the Schottenstein Center on Sunday. He gave credit to the entire Michigan coaching staff for the win, and noted that it took a detailed plan to prepare for “Chris Holtmann’s brilliant offensive mind.” Holtmann pointed at himself after the loss, saying that a lack of effort, preparation, and hustle falls on him. He gave the Wolverines credit for knocking down some big shots, especially guys like Kobe Bufkin and DeVante’ Jones who typically are not lights-out shooters.

We begin the show discussing the new Batman film and discuss why we’re excited to see Robert Pattinson play the caped crusader. We then get into how they can build this world, DC superhero film flops, and why this one should be different. We haven’t seen it yet, so no spoilers. After that, we get into the constant pain Ohio State basketball causes and has endured during the Holtmann era. We talk about the last two defeats and the Michigan State game as it happens. The positives of Holtmann still outweigh the negatives, but we tell you what he has to do in March to earn some faith back amongst the fair weather fans. We then talk all things the NFL combine and discuss the Chris Olave and Garrett Wilson’s times live on the show. That leads to discussions about some other players and the rest of the Buckeyes in attendance. We also talk about the importance of the combine to draft evaluators. Lastly, we discuss some fun topics including the teams we’d root for if not Ohio State, predict how Ohio State’s women’s basketball team will do in the B1G tourney, and why Lincoln Riley sucks (in a natural flowing conversation).

During this episode, we spoke to E.J. Liddell, Joey Brunk, Chris Holtmann, Gabe Brown, and Tom Izzo about Ohio State’s 80-69 victory over the reeling Spartans. Much of the conversation focused on Brunk who — unsurprisingly — was not part of Michigan State’s game preparation at all. Liddell ceded most speaking time to Brunk, who fielded questions from all of us as well as his teammate Zed Key, who crashed the press conference. Tom Izzo said he was “angry” with his team and admitted that he did not want to double-team Brunk at any point because “He’s a guy who averages one point per game.” He also criticized Ohio State’s crowd for being weak, but gave them credit for “lifting” Brunk to a great game. We also spoke to MSU senior Gabe Brown, who led the Spartans with 13 points. His answers were very short, showing his frustration. Brown said he “wants to win as badly as anyone” but that his team simply can’t defend right now. Sounds familiar!

]]> 2987 Bucketheads: Talking through the Men's Basketball Disappointment, Previewing the Women's Basketball B1G Tourney (03/03/22) Land-Grant Holy Land’s newest podcast, ‘Bucketheads’ takes you on a journey across the college basketball landscape every episode. The only basketball-focused podcast in the LGHL family of podcasts, co-hosts Connor Lemons and Justin Golba give the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes as well as all the other happenings in the college hoops world. ‘Bucketheads’ will be released every Thursday morning throughout the regular season. During this episode, we talked to Land-Grant Holy Land’s Thomas Costello about the Ohio State women’s basketball team, which starts their Big Ten Tournament run tomorrow night. Thomas gave a solid summary of the team, why they’re projected as a 5-seed in the NCAA Tournament despite winning the Big Ten, and which role players have shined off the bench. We also briefly discussed Ohio State’s unfathomable loss to Nebraska Tuesday night and what that does to their potential tournament seeding in next week’s men’s Big Ten Tournament. The Buckeyes will likely need to win both of their remaining games to reclaim a double-bye and the four-seed, which they have temporarily lost to Iowa. We close the episode by speculating which teams would present challenges to Ohio State in the NCAA Tournament in a 5-12, 6-11, or 7-10 matchup.

]]> 1595 LGHL Uncut: Wheeler, Ahrens, Holtmann Discuss Rock-Bottom Loss to Nebraska (03/01/22) https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ Throughout the season, Land-Grant Holy Land will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conference, but also from individual interview sessions. On this episode, Jamari Wheeler, Justin Ahrens, and Chris Holtmann discuss No. 23 Ohio State’s (18-9, 11-7) terrible, awful, no good, very bad loss to Nebraska (9-21, 3-16) Tuesday night. Despite leading for a portion of this game and rarely trailing by more than six or seven points, the Buckeyes were unable to string stops together to make up the deficit, falling to the Big Ten’s worst team on their home floor. Wheeler and Ahrens had few answers to explain what contributed to the brutal loss. Wheeler said that the team simply did not come into the game with the focus needed for a game of this magnitude with Big Ten Tournament seeding on the line. They also mentioned that losing Kyle Young (plus Zed Key) was a killer, but that it was not why they lost this game. Holtmann then took the loss on the chin during his time, saying that it is his fault that the team “is not connected on defense like they should be” this late in the season. He acknowledged injuries, but also acknowledged that there are a lot of things “that are correctible that need to be corrected.” We also heard from the victorious coach, Fred Hoiberg, and his star player, Bryce McGowens. McGowen had 26 points to lead Nebraska. Connect with the Podcast: Twitter: @BucketheadsLGHL Connect with Connor: Twitter: @lemons_connor Learn more about your ad choices.

After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. In this episode we get sidetracked and start talking about the NFL and the likelihood that Russell Wilson or Aaron Rodgers gets traded. Is Jameis Winston the best free agent quarterback and what will happen with Deshaun Watson? After getting on track, we get into the NFL Combine and which Big Ten players will show out in the combine? We get into which wide receiver will have the best career. Can Aidan Hutchinson reach Bosa or Watt brother status? Plus, will Daniel Faalele be a bust? In our first venture into Men's basketball, we update the current rankings in the Big Ten where Wisconsin is leading a close competition for the Big Ten regular season championship. Jordan wants to know why Illinois isn't historically in the conversation with Duke, North Carolina, and Kansas. Despite all the talent in Chicago they have never capitalized to raise their profile. A Big Ten school hasn't won the national championship since 2000, will that change in 2022? Dante doesn't think so. In their weekly pit stops Jordan advocates for the benefits of multi-sport athletes. High school students should not specialize in a singular sport there are way more advantages to playing multiple sports and being a well-rounded athlete.

We begin the show discussing the recruiting challenges Ohio State faces with new challengers in recruiting hot spots. We discuss the new coaches and how this makes the entire recruiting land scape more challenging for everyone, not just Ohio State. After that, we go into an in-depth recruiting big board, we discuss our ten most important recruits in the 2023 class. We give some analysis on why we think the recruits important and a rise in Massachusetts blue chip prospects. Our big board has a focus on direct recruiting competition and building out the roster. We then discuss the worst college football article ever written, and how some people who get paid for this need to find a new line of work. We discuss the potential power the Big Ten and other conferences have to gain if the playoff goes to the open market. We also get into how the Alliance has moved away from working together and are working in self-interest (surprise, surprise).

Liddell, Malaki Branham, Both Coaches Discuss Ohio State MBB’s OT Victory Over Indiana (02/22/22) https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ Throughout the season, Land-Grant Holy Land will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conference, but also from individual interview sessions. On this episode, E.J. Liddell, Malaki Branham, Chris Holtmann, and Mike Woodson discuss Ohio State’s most heart-stopping victory of the year, an 80-69 overtime win over Woodson’s Hoosiers. After leading by 11, Ohio State trailed by four points with a minute remaining before forcing overtime and ultimately winning in OT. Branham discussed the huge play involving himself and Liddell at the end of regulation that ultimately sent the game to overtime. He also talked about his conditioning during his first season of college basketball. Liddell gave the home crowd credit for “giving them some juice” down the stretch. Head coach Chris Holtmann called it a “gritty” win and acknowledged there were facets of this game that the Buckeyes simply did not do well — including rebounding. He talked about Branham’s transformation as a player, saying that his freshman star is “Not at all the same player he was against Seton Hall and Florida earlier this season.” Connect with the Podcast: Twitter: @BucketheadsLGHL Connect with Connor: Twitter: @lemons_connor Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 2221 I-70 Football Show: "New Year's Six Tier" Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. In this episode Jordan and Dante break down the New Year’s Six tier. Michigan State had a great campaign and almost won the Big Ten, can they repeat next year, or will they take a step back? Ohio State had their down year so look out Big Ten. Will the Buckeyes buzzsaw through the conference in route to another playoff appearance? Michigan had their best season in decades but then at once began a drama filled off season. Can they bounce back, or will they once again be the Michigan team we've come to expect under Harbaugh? Before their scheduled pit stops the guys get into Brain Flores getting hired by the Steelers as well as how it would feel to be a great and your kid does not play sports. Plus, which league treats their players the worst, the MLB, NBA, or NFL? In their weekly pit stop Jordan discusses the decision to wait on playoff expansion. We will have to wait until 2026 at the earliest for a 12-team playoff. Dante talks about the lackluster Dunk Contest.

Your hosts, Matt Tamanini and Jami Jurich, will (of course) talk Ohio State sports, but the primary focus of the show will be on what’s going on around the periphery, such as weird/funny happenings in college football and the sports world at large, as well as other things that keep us interested in between games, whether that’s pop culture, social media trends— you name it. Over the past two weeks, Jami has been focused solely on the Winter Olympics in Beijing, so she has been neglecting all of the other things that she normally cares about, so Matt gives her a rundown of where things stand for both the Ohio State men's and women's basketball teams as they fight for postseason seedings and fleeting chances to secure Big Ten regular season titles. Then, they turn the tables as Jami goes in-depth to explain the controversy over 15-year-old Russian figure skater Kamila Valieva positive drug test, the Olympic rulings that allowed her to compete, and the ripples it had throughout the sports world. Spoiler Alert: Jami and Matt both have very strong feelings about the IOC and Russia's handling of this entire fiasco.

We begin the show with the huge recruiting BOOOM in 4-star OT Luke Montgomery of Findlay High School. Justin Frye showed immediate impact on the recruiting trail and we discuss the type of player Ohio State is getting in Montgomery. After that, we discuss Gene Smith’s potential plan of having the Buckeyes playing their home playoff games in Lucas Oil Stadium. In a debate format that rivals the glory days of ESPN’s First Take, Chris and Jordan do not agree on the reasoning for moving the game to Indianapolis. We then discuss how Gene Smith decimated the Alliance, and we get into why Alliance scheduling was never going to be beneficial for the Big Ten. Then we get into a discussion about the new potential media deals for the Buckeyes. We talk about the potential value the Big Ten brings to the table and why it will continue to be the most valuable media product in college football. Our final discussion, we discuss players gaining weight, the incredible Marvin Harrison Jr., and why a coach at Ohio State can’t get a raise in a year he loses to Michigan.

Liddell, Iowa's Keegan Murray to Clash in Columbus on Saturday (02/17/22) https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ Land-Grant Holy Land’s newest podcast, ‘Bucketheads’ takes you on a journey across the college basketball landscape every episode. The only basketball-focused podcast in the LGHL family of podcasts, co-hosts Connor Lemons and Justin Golba give the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes as well as all the other happenings in the college hoops world. ‘Bucketheads’ will be released every Thursday morning throughout the regular season. After a shockingly flat first half, No. 18 Ohio State (16-6, 9-4) rallied back to pummel Minnesota Tuesday night, 70-45. Connor and Justin compared this game to a high vs low-seeded NCAA Tournament game, and note that OSU’s defense has steadily improved since the Rutgers game. We also discuss Austin Parks’ commitment and what it means for the Buckeyes’ frontcourt, as well as our general excitement for both the 2022 and 2023 classes. Ohio State may not be great next season, but damnit, they’re going to be a lot of fun to watch. The episode is closed with a brief preview of this weekend’s showdown with Iowa, and we ponder why Keegan Murray isn’t getting more national attention for the fantastic season he’s having. The battle between those two is going to be must-watch TV (on FOX at 2:30 pm E.T., specifically).

The episode is closed with a brief preview of this weekend’s showdown with Iowa, and we ponder why Keegan Murray isn’t getting more national attention for the fantastic season he’s having. The battle between those two is going to be must-watch TV (on FOX at 2:30 pm E.T., specifically).

Join LGHL’s co-managing editor Gene Ross alongside his co-host Josh Dooley as they cover everything from football to basketball to recruiting and more! After breaking down the offense on last week’s episode, this week the guys are taking a stab at projecting the depth chart on the defensive side of the ball. While the offense has a good number of clear starters in 2022, the defense has a ton more question marks, both because of personnel changes and the introduction of Jim Knowles’ defensive system. Obviously the Ohio State defense must play much better if the Buckeyes wish to make it back to the College Football Playoff, and as a result you will likely see a bunch of new faces out there this fall.

On this episode, Zed Key, Jamari Wheeler, Ben Johnson, and Chris Holtmann discuss Ohio State’s come-from-behind 70-45 win over the Gophers at the Schottenstein Center Tuesday night. After trailing by two points at halftime, Ohio State overwhelmed Minnesota over the final 20 minutes, denying them their fourth conference win of the season. Key and Wheeler discussed some of the changes that needed to be made to play a cleaner second half. Wheeler also talked about his mindset when teams back off of him and “dare” him to shoot threes, like Minnesota did tonight. Head coach Chris Holtmann addressed Justin Ahrens’ reduced role on the team as the season progresses and his confidence in his team to pull away from opponents late. He described Ohio State’s pace as a “slow drip” that he knew would eventually lead to his team taking command of the game.

After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. In this episode of the I-70 football show we discuss the "upper bowl tier", Iowa, Penn State and Wisconsin all had relatively successful seasons, but they weren't the cream of the crop in the Big Ten. Penn State struggled for a second season in a row but still reached bowl eligibility. Wisconsin started out slow with a 1-3 record then won seven straight games behind their future star running back, Iowa almost reached the mountain top as the No. 2 team in the nation but couldn't sustain ending the season at 10-2 before two straight losses have them at 10-4. Despite having the worst record of the three teams we're still higher on Penn State then Iowa or Wisconsin going into 2022. In a slow Big Ten cycle we get into some NBA trade deadlines talk, discuss why no one cares about LeBron's new record and NBA superstar fatigue. In out weekly pit stops Jordan once again hates on the Pro Football Hall of Fame because they didn't select Reggie Wayne for the 2022 class.

Welcome back, folks, and thanks to Jami for crossing over from the Stick to Sports podcast for an episode this week.  And what a week it was!

You can catch us every Monday breaking down the major games, storylines and previewing the next weeks slate! If you love the Big Ten, pack a bag, jump in the car and enjoy the ride!  Dante is back! in this episode we start by discussing all things, Jim Harbaugh. How did he not get an NFL job when he had personal connections to four of the jobs? What does it mean for Michigan that he was flirting with the NFL; do they believe he won't keep looking each off season? Plus is Harbaugh lucky this happened in Michigan? What would OSU fan's do in the same position if it was Ryan Day trying to get an NFL job and begrudgingly coming back? In our post season tiers we discuss Rutgers, Maryland, Minnesota and Purdue. Rutgers and Maryland slightly exceeded expectations by making a bowl game. Their coaches have taken steps towards relevance, can they improve in the 2022 campaign? Minnesota and Purdue had great seasons both finishing 9-4, find out what program we believe will take a step back in 2022 and which one may be in the Big Ten Championship game. Lastly, we get into NFL updates, Big Ben and Tom Brady retired, while Sean Payton retired until he can get the Cowboys job. Brian Flores puts his career in jeopardy by bringing a racial discrimination lawsuit against in the NFL. In their weekly pit stops Jordan discusses delusional fans and why Lincoln Riley isn't a bad person.

]]> 6566 LGHL Uncut: Holtmann, Ahrens, Key discuss Ohio State’s big home victory over Maryland (02/06/22) https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ Throughout the season, Land-Grant Holy Land will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conference, but also from individual interview sessions. In this episode you will hear from both head coaches — Chris Holtmann and Danny Manning — as well as select Ohio State players following Ohio State’s 82-67 victory over Maryland Sunday afternoon in the Schottenstein Center. Manning spoke first, repeating several times that Ohio State has several guys who can really make you pay, and that allowing a team to shoot 60% in the first half isn’t going to win you many games. Then, Justin Ahrens — and later Zed Key — step in to discuss Ohio State’s tenth home victory of the season in 10 tries. Ahrens took questions alone first, as Key was held up speaking to his adoring fans as he tried to exit the arena floor. Ahrens talked about the stress of going through the tough stretch he went through, and the vitriol some fans had been showing him lately. Key also sang Ahrens praises and expressed how happy he was for his teammate following his big game. Finally, Holtmann talked to the media about starting and finishing strong, something he says the Buckeyes were not able to do against Purdue last weekend. He expressed how happy he was for Ahrens, and thanked the Buckeye Nuthouse for “consistently being phenomenal” all season long.

Your hosts, Matt Tamanini and Jami Jurich, will (of course) talk Ohio State sports, but the primary focus of the show will be on what’s going on around the periphery, such as weird/funny happenings in college football and the sports world at large, as well as other things that keep us interested in between games, whether that’s pop culture, social media trends— you name it. On this episode of Land-Grant Holy Land's "Stick to Sports" podcast, LGHL's resident Winter Olympics guru Jami Jurich gives Matt a breakdown of all of the Buckeyes competing in Beijing over the next few weeks. Surprisingly, all but one of them is a current or former women's hockey player. Jami also attempts to convince everyone to watch more of her favorite Olympic sport -- and perhaps favorite sport in general -- curling.

We begin the show by talking about the impact of Jim Harbaugh leaving Michigan for the NFL, and the fall out of him having to return after not receiving an offer. The discussion heads into how a staff recovers from the instability and if Harbaugh is serious about his words that every offseason won’t be this way. After that conversation we discuss the introductory press conferences and we get into our favorite moments. We talk Justin Frye’s approach, Perry Eliano’s confidence, and why we think Tim Walton will be a star for the Buckeyes. We close out with Jim Knowles and how he is an architect in football coaches clothing. After the break, we get into the player introductions and our infatuation with Devin Brown. We also discuss Tanner McAlister and how the young guys seemed extremely prepared. Then we get into some of the quick news notes surrounding the Buckeyes. Our final discussion is about the new group licensing deal Fanatics unveiled and why we’re extremely excited for it.

The only basketball-focused podcast in the LGHL family of podcasts, co-hosts Connor Lemons and Justin Golba give the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes as well as all the other happenings in the college hoops world. ‘Bucketheads’ will be released every Thursday morning throughout the regular season. At first it looked like a good old-fashioned ass-beating, but the No. 16 Ohio State Buckeyes (13-5, 6-3) orchestrated a furious comeback this past weekend in Mackey Arena, falling just short of the Boilermakers, 81-78. The guys talk about why it’s okay to feel good about some aspects of that game, while also not giving the Buckeyes a pass for the things that clearly cost them a huge road victory. Connor and Justin also examined what the expectations should be for Ohio State men’s basketball on a year-to-year basis. Are the Buckeyes a blue-blood that should be competing for a national championship every season? Are they a football school that also has a competitive basketball program? Somewhere in between, perhaps? The fellas close it out by briefly reacting to the news of Jim Harbaugh spurning the NFL and returning to Michigan, and telling listeners what to expect from Iowa this evening when the fighting Frans come to town.

On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. In the second ever solo episode Jordan gets into what the Big Ten could look like without divisions. In what will be a major off season for the Big Ten that includes a new media deal and expanded playoff negotiations there is now a potential removal of divisions. Since 2014 the Big Ten has been split into two - seven team divisions based on geography. With an expanded playoff on the horizon and lopsided divisions the conference is doing the smart thing by getting rid of them. In this episode Jordan gets into why the Big Ten would remove divisions and how they could do it in a way that makes sense. He also walks through his ideal pairing for protected rivalries and what trophy games should continue in the new set up. In his weekly pit stop Jordan takes a moment to recognize the greatness of Joe Burrow, better known as OSU Joe. In his second year in the NFL, he led the Cincinnati Bengal to the Super Bowl. This is after leading LSU to the national championship in his second season. Joe Burrow brings talent, confidence, and energy with him wherever he goes and is turning around the Bengal right before our eyes.

How OSU's New Coaches Are Recruiting (01/29/22) https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ On “The Dotted Line”, Land-Grant Holy Land’s Matt Tamanini talks to recruiting experts, LGHL’s recruiting analysts, and prospects themselves to get a unique perspective on the players that will be a part of Ohio State’s future. On this episode, Matt Tamanini is joined by LGHL recruiting columnist Caleb Houser to preview Wednesday, Feb. 2's official National Signing Day. As has been the case in recent seasons, there is not much left to be done for the Ohio State Buckeyes on Signing Day as they mostly have their classes signed, sealed, and on campus following the Early Signing Period in December. However, there are two important Buckeye commits who still need to sign on... the dotted line (see what we did there) on Wednesday. So Matt and Caleb discuss the latest on Carson Hinzman and Omari Abor as they try to figure out if they will officially join OSU's 2022 class or not. Then the pair discusses the feverish recruiting pace that Ohio State's newly reconfigured coaching staff has been keeping up on the road, who is a 2023 prospect to keep an eye on, and much more.

We begin the show by talking about our least favorite offseason topics and why we hate how people grade coaching staff hires in January. We also discuss the importance of assistant coaches and why there are more important things than names. Then we keep on complaining because we have problems with the Hall of Fames of major sports league and some issues about the college football Hall of fames. Major League baseball is the vehicle, but we still talk about Ohio State in this segment. After the break, we get into the B1G’s plan to move away from dvisions. We talk about how it might work and why it’s beneficial for everybody involved. We move forward and discuss the NIL dominance by Ohio State and ponder why anyone ever had problem with this. We talk about some of the deals that were exciting to see and what cars we’d want from a local auto dealer. Our final discussion is about some of the final recruiting takeaways as the composite ranking gets finalized.

The four games we were treated to Saturday and Sunday did not disappoint, and Tia and Meredith talked everything from quarterback drama to field goal drama to overtime drama — because what’s a playoff weekend without a healthy dose of dramatics? The NFL wasn’t the only thing in action this weekend. Meredith and Tia also got into two of the spectacular women’s college basketball performances ever (both of which came this past week) and the 50th anniversary of a historic brawl they’d never heard of before.  Contact Tia Johnston Twitter: @TiaJohnston_ Contact Meredith Hein Twitter: @MeredithHein Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 2808 I-70 Football Show: A Season Recap - Non Bowl Tier Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. In this episode we update the NFL playoffs with live reactions to the Chiefs vs. Bills game. By the end of the episode Patrick Mahomes mounted a last second comeback and an overtime win to advance to the conference championship. We also celebrate Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady heading home at the hands of the 49ers and Rams respectively. Finally, despite nine sacks, OSU Joe finds a way to advance upsetting the Titans In our post season recap we discuss the four teams, Indiana, Northwestern, Nebraska and Illinois, that did not reach bowl eligibility. After high expectation Indiana bottomed out leading to a 2-10 season that left more questions than answers. After a Big Ten championship appearance Northwestern's wheels fell off despite an easy schedule leading to a 2-10 season. The defense lost their stride but not having a quarterback throw for 1,000 yards was a much worse issue that must be fixed. Nebraska, the best 3-9 team in the country, finished their fourth straight season under Scott Frost without a bowl appearance. As we all know they decided to keep Scott Frost choosing to ignore his teams’ underwhelming performances and inability to win close games. Lastly, Illinois is the one team in this tier who season was actually a positive. After restarting their program by hiring Bret Bielema, the Illini showed a level of discipline, toughness, and desire that allowed them to out punch their talent. Had they played a typical out of conference slate they may have been a bowl team. In their weekly pit stop, Jordan celebrates the Winter Olympics. Summer is okay but there is nothing like watching people do tricks while snowboarding and skiing. Dante makes his case that Aaron Rodgers and Drew Brees are regular season stat stuffers who consistently fail in the playoffs.

Your hosts, Matt Tamanini and Jami Jurich, will (of course) talk Ohio State sports, but the primary focus of the show will be on what’s going on around the periphery, such as weird/funny happenings in college football and the sports world at large, as well as other things that keep us interested in between games, whether that’s pop culture, social media trends— you name it. On this episode of "Stick to Sports," Jami and Matt discuss the three latest big name Buckeyes coming back for another year in Columbus. They look at what Dawand Jones, Zach Harrison, and Noah Ruggles did in the previous season and talk about how much impact can have on Ryan Day's 2022 team. From there, they discuss Harrison's viral tweet from last week in which he asked his more than 10,000 followers to help him decide between "Game of Thrones" and "Breaking Bad." From there – having previously discussed their favorite TV shows of all-time – Matt and Jami try to land on what the best TV show of all-time is. https://twitter.com/zacharrison_/status/1484299867556139008?s=20 And, as always, they wrap up the episode with their always perfect recommendations.

The only basketball-focused podcast in the LGHL family of podcasts, co-hosts Connor Lemons and Justin Golba give the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes as well as all the other happenings in the college hoops world. ‘Bucketheads’ will be released every Thursday morning throughout the regular season. Should Justin Ahrens keep letting it fly? Will we ever see Justice Sueing or Seth Towns in an Ohio State uniform again? Who let Rutgers creep up towards the top of the Big Ten? This week’s episode is as scatterbrained as a chipmunk with ADHD as we crisscrossed all of our basketball-related thoughts, two days after Ohio State’s game with Nebraska was cancelled. The guys also broke down how the “*insert bench player* needs more minutes!” crowd may not be thinking things through, why scheduling replacement games on the fly is so difficult, and tease a very important guest that will be joining us next week.

We begin the show by talking about a friend of the shows article on walk-ons and why Corey Dennis needs to get some respect put on his name. We then get into the Buckeyes who are at the University of Notre Dame and why trying to copy Ohio State is a terrible idea. After that we get into a discussion about the return of Zach Harrison, this leads to a discussion about the role he’ll play under Jim Knowles. We also discuss if Knowles is going to be as crazy as we think. After the break, we discuss the jobs and titles of all the coaches on the staff. This leads into a discussion about all the roles each title entails and conversation about raises in the higher education system. Then we talk about what Kevin Wilson actually does now? Our final discussion is a long talk about the 2022 NFL Draftees and our projections on what round we think they’re going to be drafted again.

Welcome back, everyone, and welcome back, TIA! So excited to have the OG co-host back on Play Like a Girl this week. And what a week it was. From the list of the top-paid female athletes in the world (spoiler: Naomi Osaka makes just a third of what Conor McGregor does) to building a super fem-focused watchlist (King Richard and Earning it NFL, anyone?) to a discussion on the merits of Joe Burrow’s sunglasses, it was certainly an exciting week in sports.  Of course, that doesn’t even account for the NFL Playoffs, including three huge blowouts (that’s what you get with a 14-team playoff), a not-so-friendly sendoff for Big Ben, hot Super Bowl picks and our favorite goofy sports takes.  Contact Tia Johnston Twitter: @TiaJohnston_ Contact Meredith Hein Twitter: @MeredithHein Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome back, everyone, and welcome back, TIA! So excited to have the OG co-host back on Play Like a Girl this week. And what a week it was. From the list of the top-paid female athletes in the world (spoiler: Naomi Osaka makes just a third of what Conor McGregor does) to building a super fem-focused watchlist (King Richard and Earning it NFL, anyone?) to a discussion on the merits of Joe Burrow’s sunglasses, it was certainly an exciting week in sports.  Of course, that doesn’t even account for the NFL Playoffs, including three huge blowouts (that’s what you get with a 14-team playoff), a not-so-friendly sendoff for Big Ben, hot Super Bowl picks and our favorite goofy sports takes.  Contact Tia Johnston Twitter: @TiaJohnston_ Contact Meredith Hein Twitter: @MeredithHein Learn more about your ad choices.

Your hosts, Matt Tamanini and Jami Jurich, will (of course) talk Ohio State sports, but the primary focus of the show will be on what’s going on around the periphery, such as weird/funny happenings in college football and the sports world at large, as well as other things that keep us interested in between games, whether that’s pop culture, social media trends— you name it. On this episode of "Stick to Sports," Jami and Matt discuss their complicated and often conflicting emotions about the departure of Ohio State defensive coordinator Kerry Coombs. Though his tenure as DC was nowhere near as successful as fans would have liked, Coombs has contributed a lot to the program during his two tenures, including turning the defensive secondary into the #BIA. The pair also discuss the latest addition to the "Scream" franchise as they both saw the new horror whodunit in its opening week. Then, as always, they finished the show with very eclectic recommendations, unintentionally both coming from Hulu this week.

We begin the show by talking about the flamethrower Ryan Day just tok to the defensive coaching staff and we give a run down of all the new names. We discuss their positions and the importance of the fresh faces in the room. Then we talk about what all these coaches have in common and bring to the table for the Buckeyes. After that we get into a discussion about the final outlook of the staff. We assume there will be no additional changes, so we talk about the new offensive line coach for the Buckeyes, the lack of work Kevin Wilson does, and the value Parker Fleming doesn’t bring to the table in his special teams coordinator role. After the break, we then get into our 2022 depth chart projections. We discuss the offense and how we see the receiver depth playing out. Then we get into the build of the offensive line and C.J. Stroud being QB1 in the 2022 draft. Our final discussion is our defensive depth chart projections. We discuss the LEO position, how the linebacker room will look, and what we think will happen at the defensive back positions under Jim Knowles.

Welcome back! Despite the college football season being officially behind us (we’re not crying…), there was no shortage of excitement from across the sports world for Megan and Meredith to get into this week.  First, the bad news: The College Football Playoff isn’t expanding anytime soon, because no one can seem to agree on anything — but specifically, who should get automatic bids to the field. Oh, and four NFL head coaches got the axe over the weekend, including, shockingly, Brian Flores, who led the Miami Dolphins to a 9-8 season. In even worse news, the rumor mill surrounding the coaching carousel says we might see Jim Harbaugh coaching Justin Fields in Chicago come next year. *sobs* But there is good news, like the perfect end to the NFL regular season, and a solid College Football Hall of Fame class that includes one of our favorite Buckeyes from the 2002 National Championship team, Mike Doss.  Contact Megan Husslein Twitter: @meganhusslein Contact Meredith Hein Twitter: @MeredithHein Learn more about your ad choices.

But there is good news, like the perfect end to the NFL regular season, and a solid College Football Hall of Fame class that includes one of our favorite Buckeyes from the 2002 National Championship team, Mike Doss.

After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. First things first we have a national championship game tonight! Unfortunately, it doesn't include any Big Ten teams but it's still important, so we take a detour and get into a game preview. After losing in dominate fashion what makes Georgia think they can fair better against the Alabama Crimson Tide? Is there any truth to the narrative that the Bulldogs didn't get up for the first game because they knew they would play them in the playoffs or is that just an excuse? Dante and Jordan give their thoughts on the game and pick winners Back in Big Ten country the guys get into a debate over coaching success and if Ohio State should have fired their offensive line coach. Is it acceptable to not have a first round pick in six years? Who takes the blame? is the coach bad or are NFL teams just not good at drafting? In other news Jim Harbaugh is flirting with the NFL, Jordan expected it and Dante is surprised. Will Jim Harbaugh make the jump or is this just a ploy to get more money out of Michigan? In their weekly pit stops Jordan laughs at Michigan fans who think Buckeye fans fear Harbaugh and are hoping he leaves, despite his 1-5 record in The Game. Dante makes the case for T.J.

Welcome back! Wow, it’s hard to believe that Ohio State’s football season is already over.

On the pod this week, Megan and Meredith talk how, with record-setting performances from Jaxon Smith-Njigba and CJ Stroud, the Buckeyes look like they won’t miss a beat heading into next fall — at least on the offensive side of things. The defense, meanwhile, left something to be desired.  Of course, the Buckeyes weren’t the only team in action this bowl season, and there was plenty of intrigue from the College Football Playoff games New Year’s Eve to the always exciting New Year’s Six.  Contact Megan Husslein Twitter: @meganhusslein Contact Meredith Hein Twitter: @MeredithHein Learn more about your ad choices.

The defense, meanwhile, left something to be desired.  Of course, the Buckeyes weren’t the only team in action this bowl season, and there was plenty of intrigue from the College Football Playoff games New Year’s Eve to the always exciting New Year’s Six.  Contact Megan Husslein Twitter: @meganhusslein Contact Meredith Hein Twitter: @MeredithHein Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome back! Wow, it’s hard to believe that Ohio State’s football season is already over.

]]> 2383 I-70 Football Show: Bowl Recap + RIP John Madden Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. Happy New Years! We hope you had a wonder holiday and good luck on all your resolutions. In this week’s episode we recap a pretty success and wild bowl slate for the Big Ten. After starting 5-0 the conference ended bowl season with a 6-4 record, not bad but not great. We get into Michigan's disappointing showing against a dominant Georgia, Michigan State 11th win, and instant classics by Purdue against Tennessee and Ohio State in the Rose Bowl against Utah. Aidan O'Connell of Purdue and C.J. Stroud both throw for over 500 yards as their teams find a way to win 48-45 in their respective matchups. Jordan wins the bowl game competition with a record of 8-2 bringing his final tally to 103-75 for the season. Dante finishes 6-4 with a final record of 99-79 but he must wear a Clemson shirt and by wings for the National Championship. In their weekly pit stops Dante can't stand ex-players, coaches, and media members who complain about players who opt out of bowl games. Stop saying they don't love football by trying to protect their future. Jordan gets into the Black QB revolution, slowly but surely the number of black quarterbacks in the NFL is increasing and will continue to increase as C.J. Stroud and Bryce Young look to be the first quarterbacks taken in the 2023 NFL Draft. ' Lastly, RIP to the Legends John Madden and Betty White.

This week on “Bucketheads,” Connor and Justin talk about Ohio State not quite being ready to get on the court following a milti-week COVID pause and what that means for the team heading into 2022 and the conference slate.

The boys also talk about the Big Ten and give you a rundown of the league. Finally — since OSU MBB content is thin right now — for the second episode in a row, they dive into some TV and movie talk.

Welcome back! We may be approaching the end of 2021, but we’ve got the same old story dominating sports headlines: COVID-19. Several bowl games have been cancelled, creating an abrupt end to the season for many teams, but others — namely Rutgers — have another shot as they’re backfilling teams that had to drop out of their bowl games due to COVID outbreaks.  Even Ohio State’s men’s basketball game against New Orleans, initially scheduled for Tuesday night, was cancelled just moments after Meredith and Megan finished recording.  But there was some good news from the week, like the NBA on Christmas Day, and Joe Burrow’s performance against the Ravens Sunday.

]]> 1647 I-70 Football Show: Bowl Preview part two Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. In this episode we discuss the holidays and how we spent time with our families. We also break down the continuing impact that Covid is having on sports. Bowl games are being cancelled, teams are being replaced, and the playoff committee has released new rules including a rule that could lead to a vacant national champion for the 2021 season. Despite the impact of Covid, games are still being played and they must be previewed. With free wings on the table Dante and I pick the six remaining bowl games. Will Mel Tucker have the Spartans ready and showcase how he earned that $95 million dollar contract? Does Rutgers stand a chance against Wake Forest? How motivated is Ohio State in their matchup against Utah? Lastly, does Michigan have a chance against Georgia in the College Football Semi-Final game? In their weekly pit stops Jordan celebrates another major Colts victory, this time over the Arizona Cardinals while down multiple key starters. Dante tallies the predictions for the Big Ten teams and discovers we both have the conference going 6-4 in bowl games.

We begin the show by talking about the successes in the 2022 class and we discuss the players we’re the most excited about joining the Buckeyes. We get into the coach recruiter rankings and reflect on the biggest misses in the class. Moving forward, we get into a discussion about what we learned in our film studies for Jim Knowles. We discuss some of the position fits and the parts that make a Knowles defense special. We talk about the coverages and some of the wildest things we saw from Oklahoma State’s defense last year. After that we get back into our recruiting discussion, and this time look at it from an NIL perspective. We tell you why NIL hasn’t changed recruiting, we discuss how it might change recruiting, and then we discuss why there should be no problems with money in college football. Our final discussion gets into some of the smaller news and notes like Jim Knowles getting the lay of the land. We talk about a few players who are going to have big opportunities with the fresh start. Then we discuss our new Gator friend in transfer and former Buckeye quarterback Jack Miller. Lastly, we close out the show with first thoughts of the Rose Bowl since the match up was announced.

The only basketball-focused podcast in the LGHL family of podcasts, co-hosts Connor Lemons and Justin Golba give the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes as well as all the other happenings in the college hoops world. ‘Bucketheads’ will be released every Thursday morning throughout the regular season. We are now 11 days into Ohio State’s COVID-19-pause, but there is an end in sight (hopefully). After both the Kentucky and UT-Martin games were cancelled, Chris Holtmann said that he “expects to play on the 28th (against New Orleans). While that’s fine and good, we still have very little to talk about this week because of the shutdown. So this week after discussing the timeline of OSU’s break and how we got here, the guys talked about Spiderman: No Way Home a bit — as they both went and saw it during opening weekend. If you haven’t seen the movie yet, it’s probably best you skip the final 20 minutes or so of this one. The plan is to resume your regularly scheduled programming next week.

On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan.

In this episode we complain about corporate greed. Is Disney trying to make a power play for Hulu TV? This is literally the worst time possible to lose ESPN when most bowl games are on ESPN. We're not the only ones who received bad news as Urban Meyer got the boot in Jacksonville after a ridiculously short tenure. Sometimes being the head ball coach doesn't stop you from facing the consequences of your actions

The boys also get into the news about quarterback transfers and NIL ruining college football. We eventually get into the Big Ten as we preview the first four Big Ten bowl games, listen as we make our picks and decide on a friendly wager. Lastly we review the winner of our season long competition. While both of us did very well only one of us has to wear either a Clemson or Michigan T-Shirt.

We begin the show by talking about the successes in the 2022 class and we discuss the players we’re the most excited about joining the Buckeyes. We get into the coach recruiter rankings and reflect on the biggest misses in the class. Moving forward, we get into a discussion about what we learned in our film studies for Jim Knowles. We discuss some of the position fits and the parts that make a Knowles defense special. We talk about the coverages and some of the wildest things we saw from Oklahoma State’s defense last year. After that we get back into our recruiting discussion, and this time look at it from an NIL perspective. We tell you why NIL hasn’t changed recruiting, we discuss how it might change recruiting, and then we discuss why there should be no problems with money in college football. Our final discussion gets into the B1G East vs. the B1G West in recruiting, and why the conference needs to do away with divisions. Then we finish with a discussion about how Ryan Day has used the portal well, and the importance of transfers in the modern CFB landscape. Lastly, we close out the show with our final thoughts from the week and for the offseason.

My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. In this episode Dante and Jordan get a jump start on the off-season conversation. What are the initial thoughts from the season? This season had to most parity we've seen in a long time, our pre-season picks were way wrong, and how much did super seniors affect the results. Will there be more parity next season or is Ohio State going to win it all again with a more experienced roster? Ohio State and Penn State both make flashy defensive coordinator hires with Jim Knowles from Oklahoma State and Manny Diaz from Miami respectively. The boys get to live react to Quinn Ewers transferring to Texas and try to figure out where Adrian Martinez and Michael Penix Jr. play next season. Also, we send a major congrats to Aidan Hutchinson and C.J. Stroud for being Heisman Finalist. In their weekly pit stops they take a moment to honor Demaryius Thomas who tragically passed away at 33 years old.

The only basketball-focused podcast in the LGHL family of podcasts, co-hosts Connor Lemons and Justin Golba give the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes as well as all the other happenings in the college hoops world. ‘Bucketheads’ will be released every Thursday morning throughout the regular season. Fresh off Ohio State’s 76-64 victory over Penn State on Sunday night, Connor and Justin discuss how the Buckeyes are beginning to form an identity on offense without a de-facto second scorer. They also preview Towson very briefly and talk about how Wisconsin — OSU’s opponent on Saturday — has exceeded expectations thus far. They also pay their respects to St. John’s, who they have definitively decided are a bad basketball team after getting throttled by Kansas this past weekend. The guys wrap it up by giving the “seasonal” CBB fans a rapid fire recap of each Big Ten team thus far. Justin explains that Minnesota is bad despite their 7-0 record, while Connor stumps for 5-4 Nebraska.

Welcome back! It was weird to not have Ohio State football on this weekend, but perhaps that’s a sign of how fortunate we’ve been as fans. Four-straight conference titles is a pretty big deal!  Given the lack of Buckeye football, though, Megan and Meredith recap the Big Ten Championship game, and talk the College Football Playoff field that resulted from a largely-as-expected championship Saturday (well, except for what happened in Atlanta…) But the season is not over. The Playoff field is one of the more intriguing ones after a bananas season, and the offseason drama — including yet more coaching changes — is already screaming at a fever pitch.  Contact Megan Husslein Twitter: @meganhusslein Contact Meredith Hein Twitter: @MeredithHein Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 2201 I-70 Football Show: Michigan dominates Iowa en route to a CFP appearance Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. Michigan continues to win in dominating fashion. After getting the monkey off their back against their rival Ohio State, the Wolverines destroy Iowa 42-3. After an early 14-3 lead that lasted until halftime Josh Gattis and his offense started rolling in the second half and left no questions unanswered on the final Saturday of the regular season. Many of us expected Michigan to win but not so sure we expected this type of performance as Iowa offense couldn't move the ball and the defense allowed multiple big plays. After a tough 2020, Michigan has won the Big Ten and plays No. 3 Georgia in the playoff semi-finals with a spot in the national championship on the line. Aside from the playoff discussion, college football hasn't slowed down. With championship games, coaching carousel, transfers and bowl game announcements there is breaking news every hour. In this episode the boys also discuss what bowl games the nine eligible teams landed in and what to coaching changes caught their interest. In their weekly pit stops Jordan discusses Kent State's special season and them landing in the Famous Idaho Potato bow game. Dante celebrates Alabama's win over Georgia after telling Jordan all season that Bama would win this game.

We begin the show by talking about the past weekend’s game against Michigan, but before we were able to talk about that some huge recruiting news happened. We discuss the commitment of Devin Brown. Then we give our final thoughts on the Michigan matchup. Moving forward, we get into about what the Ohio State staff needs to do, what you can expect going into next year, and when you can expect coach movement. We discuss which coaches we think should stay and go as well as a couple of targets that can be on the market. After that we discuss the two biggest moves in the coaching carousel in Lincoln Riley to USC and Brian Kelly to LSU. We discuss what those jobs mean and how these moves affected the landscape in college football from an administrative and football standpoint. Also we shout out a long time thorn in the side of Brutus for his new job. Lastly, we close out the show with a final discussion on what we want to see in the offseason from Ohio State.

After that we discuss the two biggest moves in the coaching carousel in Lincoln Riley to USC and Brian Kelly to LSU. We discuss what those jobs mean and how these moves affected the landscape in college football from an administrative and football standpoint. Also we shout out a long time thorn in the side of Brutus for his new job. Lastly, we close out the show with a final discussion on what we want to see in the offseason from Ohio State.

We begin the show by talking about the past weekend’s game against Michigan, but before we were able to talk about that some huge recruiting news happened. We discuss the commitment of Devin Brown. Then we give our final thoughts on the Michigan matchup.

]]> 2969 LGHL Uncut: Coach K, Holtmann, Key, Russell talk Ohio State’s huge upset over No. 1 Duke (12/01/21) https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ Throughout the season, Land-Grant Holy Land will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conference, but also from individual interview sessions. In addition to this week’s Bucketheads episode coming out on Thursday, we also have the full post-game press conference following Ohio State’s 71-66 upset victory over the No. Duke Blue Devils. Historically a slow-moving team, Ohio State tried to control the pace early on, and the scoring in the first half reflected that. At the under-8 timeout, Duke led 27-19, with seven different Blue Devils already in the scoring column. The Buckeyes were doing a fairly good job at limiting Banchero early on, but Duke’s supporting cast around him is probably the most talented in the nation. Duke held a 43-30 lead at halftime following a 7-0 run right before halftime. Banchero got it going after a slow start, racking up 10 first-half points. Key led Ohio State with nine points in the opening frame, but the true story of the first 20 minutes were the turnovers — Ohio State had nine of them in the first half alone. The Buckeyes were also whiffing at the free throw line, going 3-for-10 in the first half. Duke tried to open it up in the second half, but Ohio State just would not let them. After building a 15-point lead early in the second stanza, the Buckeyes scratched and clawed back into it, taking the lead with 1:03 remaining in the game. Cedric Russell had his coming out party, scoring 12 points. After Liddell’s jumper with 15 seconds remaining gave them a three-point lead, the comeback was complete. Ohio State slayed the giant, David finished off Goliath, and the Buckeyes beat the No. 1 team in the country in their second straight attempt. The Buckeyes were led by Key’s career-high 20 points, but Liddell and Russell both chipped in double digits as well. Duke was led by Moore’s 17 points and 8 rebounds.

Chris and Jordan discuss the community of the rivalry, the hate, and why this rivalry is not like anything else in sports. We also get into some of the storylines from both sides as the match up approaches. Then we get into the external motivating factors and if they’re as important as fans think they are. Moving forward, we get into a discussion about what Michigan is bringing to the table and what the expectations are for Jim Harbaugh. We talk about some of their key players and how Harbaugh tried rejuvenating his staff with young hires in the offseason. We move into a conversation about Ohio State’s approach to this week and the pressure on Ryan Day. We get into the Buckeyes’ match up and play a game of who would start at Ohio State. Lastly, we close out the show with an in-depth preview of what the Buckeyes will need to do to beat Michigan and the keys to a successful game for Ohio State.

]]> 4318 Buck Off: Ohio State’s matchup against MSU, senior day, and the most valuable Buckeye offensive player On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I am joined, as always, by Jordan Williams to get you guys excited for Ohio State’s huge divisional matchup against the No. 7 ranked Michigan State Spartans in Columbus, Ohio. We begin the show by giving you guys a run down of this exciting Michigan State team led by Kenneth Walker. The Mel Tucker effect has taken over and we talk about his immediate impact on the culture at MSU, his potential future job opportunities, and if he’s laid the blueprint for future coaches taking over power-five programs. Then we get into Senior Night and give Chris Olave all the love he deserves, and also shoutout to all the seniors for living out your dream. After opening as a 19.5-point favorite, DraftKings Sportsbook currently has the Buckeyes as a 19-point favorite with an over/under set at 68.5 points. Moving forward, we get into an in depth conversation about the biggest stories of the week for Ohio State including the award semi-finalists and C.J. Stroud being the betting favorite to win the Heisman. This leads to a conversation about who the most valuable player to the offense is and how special a group the Buckeyes have. We move into a quick CFP discussion because not much changed. This leads to our final discussion about the series between the Spartans and the Buckeyes, how these two teams match up, and why this game might not be as close as everyone outside of Vegas thinks it will be. Lastly, we close out the show with an in-depth preview of what the Buckeyes will need to do to beat Michigan State and the keys to a successful game for Ohio State. Learn more about your ad choices.

In terms of last game, the guys both loved what they saw from the offense and know that the defense is capable of playing much better, but also talk about why they think it struggled.

After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. This Big Ten football season is the gift that keeps on giving which is fitting because it is officially holiday season. With two games left there are three teams in play for the Big Ten East champion and a few teams, namely Penn State looking to play spoiler. There are at least three but maybe four teams in play for the West division crown too. Two weeks with a trip to Indy on the line? Sign me up for that. Dante and Jordan discuss Ohio State welcoming Michigan State to Columbus in what serves as a prelim game towards the eventual East Division champ. This is a winner take all scenario as the loser is out of the running and the winner sets up a one game showdown against either Michigan or Penn State. Can Michigan State defeat the death star or will OSU roll as expected? Wisconsin and Minnesota look to get victories to set up a winner takes the crown showdown for the West as well. There are eight teams eligible for bowl contention and two, Maryland and Rutgers, are 5-5 and looking to play upset against Michigan and Penn State respectively in hopes to reach the six win mark. In their weekly pit stops Jordan discusses Ohio State's legendary trio of wide receivers and why even if you're not an OSU fan you should take the time to appreciate these players. Dante talks about college basketball and the pinnacle of sports viewing when almost every sport is on tv at the same time.

]]> 2767 Hangout in the Holy Land: Previewing Purdue who is looking to shock the world — again. (11/10/21) https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ The hosts are new, but the sarcasm hasn’t changed a bit. Join Gene Ross and Josh Dooley all year long as they break down everything going on in Buckeye Nation on Land-Grant Holy Land's flagship podcast. Ohio State opened up as 20-point favorites against Purdue, according to the DraftKings Sportsbook, which seems pretty high given the Buckeyes’ struggles against Nebraska and the Boilermakers’ upset against Michigan State. Ohio State fans are well aware of what can happen when you don’t take Jeff Brohm’s team seriously, and their win over the Spartans has only accentuated what this squad is capable of when playing the role of spoiler. Gene and Josh break down what went wrong the last time these two teams met, and discuss why this year’s game will be different. The guys certainly don’t think this will be a walk in the park for the Buckeyes, but Ohio State can win comfortably if they execute and fix some of their silly mistakes from the past couple games.

After a bit of a clunker against Penn State, Ohio State will look to improve in a few areas as they hit the road to take on Nebraska this Saturday.

(11/02/21) https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ On LGHL’s Play Like a Girl podcast, Meredith Hein and Megan Husslein talk everything from Ohio State football to all the happenings in the sports world today. Welcome back! In this week’s post-Halloween edition of the Play Like a Girl podcast, Megan and Meredith talk more about Ohio State’s win over Penn State. It was a narrow victory (or at least narrower than we’ve grown accustomed to in the last few weeks), but it’s the first signature win for the Buckeyes on the season. And it came in one heck of an environment (Scarlet Out FTW).  But the Buckeyes have a tough road ahead, even with more separation coming in the highly competitive Big Ten East. Michigan State, just a year out from a 2-5 record, has rebuilt seemingly overnight, and is riding running back Kenneth Walker to victory week in and week out. Sparty presents a worthy adversary for the Buckeyes, as each fights to maintain control of their own destiny.  Contact Megan Husslein Twitter: @meganhusslein Contact Meredith Hein Twitter: @MeredithHein Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 2257 I-70 Football Show: Last week led to two instant classics. This week is full of "sorry to do this to you" games Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. Michigan vs. Michigan State was everything we hoped for plus more. Big plays by unknown players. A Heisman moment by Kenneth Walker III, big time throws, big time defensive stops, and some gutsy play calls. With Michigan up 16 Michigan State showed their toughness and found a way to win. After a terrible showing against Illinois, Penn State came into this game fighting for their season and hoping to avoid three straight losses. They came out firing against Ohio State and made the Buckeyes earn a tough victory. Dante and Jordan review the previous weekend games and review next weekends games. Next week games look weak on paper but nothing about this season is weak. Michigan, Michigan State, Ohio State, Penn State and Wisconsin all look to earn some style points against weaker opponents. Whether it's bouncing back from a loss, getting back into death star mode, or just trying to maintain momentum these games all have major implications and could turn ugly quick. In their weekly pit stops, Dante is tired of the Mike Tomlin disrespect. He's one of the best coaches in the league let somehow is always on a "hot seat" and is being rumored for college football head coaching vacancies. Jordan is annoyed with fans wondering why C.J. Stroud doesn't keep the ball on zone read plays even though Ryan Day and the Buckeyes never run zone read because Day doesn't believe in running his quarterbacks.

We then get into Ohio State’s absurd offensive output and try to find the word to put it in the correct perspective. We also discuss Ohio State’s defense, Chris Olave vs. Garrett Wilson as draft prospects, and then we get into what we think Ohio State’s playoff outlook will be leading into the initial CFP rankings. We then get into the most important conversation of our lifetime: WEAR SCARLET. Jordan and I go on a 15 minute long rant on how much Ohio State fans need to show out because they asked for a night game and they wanted scarlet games instead of black for years. Lastly, we get into an in-depth preview of the Penn State Nittany Lions and discuss why James Franklin is already in Malibu on the beach. We discuss their key players, Sean Clifford’s health, and what Penn State can do to challenge the Buckeyes.

The only basketball-focused podcast in the LGHL family of podcasts, co-hosts Connor Lemons and Justin Golba give the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes as well as all the other happenings in the college hoops world. On this week’s episode, Connor and Justin chat with the Columbus Dispatch’s Adam Jardy — the go-to guy for all things Ohio State hoops — about last season’s brutal finish, potential lineups this season, and how COVID-19 impacted his job last season. They also talk about what roadblocks there are to creating a “Crossroads Classic” in Ohio, pitting the likes of Ohio State, Xavier, Cincinnati, and Dayton against each other — much like it is done each season in Indiana. They close it out with a conversation about Ohio State’s matchup with Duke, and where it ranks for him in terms of the biggest home games he’s covered while covering the Buckeyes.

On this week’s episode, Connor and Justin chat with the Columbus Dispatch’s Adam Jardy — the go-to guy for all things Ohio State hoops — about last season’s brutal finish, potential lineups this season, and how COVID-19 impacted his job last season.

They also talk about what roadblocks there are to creating a “Crossroads Classic” in Ohio, pitting the likes of Ohio State, Xavier, Cincinnati, and Dayton against each other — much like it is done each season in Indiana.

They close it out with a conversation about Ohio State’s matchup with Duke, and where it ranks for him in terms of the biggest home games he’s covered while covering the Buckeyes.

No St. John’s update this week, as it did not quite fit into the interview. Next week, though. Next week.

With the Nittany Lions having lost their last two games and the Buckeyes scoring every time they touch the ball, these are two squads who are headed in opposite directions. Ohio State opened as 15-point favorites on the DraftKings Sportsbook, but the line has already jumped to 18.5. Gene and Josh break down what they expect to see in Columbus this weekend.

]]> 2123 I-70 Football Show: Illinois upsets Penn State and the path to the Big Ten Championship begins or ends this weekend Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. The Big Ten decided to take the new overtime rules for a spin with a nine overtime thriller. Illinois ran all over Penn State to the tune of 357 yards yet couldn't land in the end zone. After trading field goals in the first two overtime periods the teams went ten straight attempts without a conversion before Illinois completed the upset in the ninth overtime period. Ohio State turned their offense up a notch and beat Indiana 54-7. Michigan ran all over Northwestern bringing Jordan's dream match up of undefeated teams as Michigan and Michigan State enter next weeks contest at 7-0. That's not the only major game as Ohio State vs. Penn State, Iowa vs. Wisconsin and Minnesota vs. Northwestern are all key games that will determine who represents their division in Indianapolis for the Big Ten championship game. With bids to the championship game and subsequently a playoff berth on the line for multiple teams this may be the biggest weekend in recent Big Ten History. In their weekly pit stops Dante doubles down on bad referees and their lack of oversight. A ref was able to take a touchdown off the board in the Iowa State vs. Oklahoma State game due to a phantom taunting penalty. Jordan discusses RG3 and his cringe worthy broadcasting and why it's important to just be yourself, especially when you're a multi-million dollar ex-NFL quarterback.

On offense, they talk about the growth and development of C.J. Stroud, his Heisman chances, and all of the ridiculous weapons that Ohio State has on that side of the ball.

]]> 3537 Instant Recap Podcast: OSU runs Indiana off the field in a classic revenge game Ohio State improves to 6-1 with a 54-7 blowout win against the Indiana Hoosiers In an Kent State Alum edition of the LGHL Instant Recap podcast, Jordan Williams and Justin Golba break down this massive Buckeye win. Almost once a year it seems a team gets under Ryan Day’s skin and the next year he takes it out on them. Think Maryland last year after it was rumored they dimed out Chase Young or Michigan when they promoted the “revenge tour”. Well Indiana tried to keep Ohio State out of the Big Ten championship game last year and Day and his Buckeyes got their revenge tonight. Behind an all time first half where Ohio State led 44-7 bolstered by three touchdowns by TreVeyon Henderson, two rushing and one receiving, and a near perfect C.J. Stroud, the Buckeyes rolled to a huge win against the Hoosiers. The much improved defense racked up five sacks and fourteen tackles for a loss. Olave scored another touchdown and tied Devin Smith record for touchdown receptions in a career and is four touchdowns away from the all time record. The Buckeyes continue to round into form and should be a scary team for anyone in the Big Ten -and maybe Georgia- That’s a conversation for later as the Buckeyes take the countries best offense and a hungry defense into a -not as big a we thought?- showdown against Penn State in the Shoe next Saturday!

]]> 3830 I-70 Football Show: Iowa Falls, Purdue is a pleasant surprise and Nebraska Disappoints Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. Jordan tried to warn everyone that unless Iowa figured out their offense they would end up losing. No one expected that loss to come to Purdue but thats exactly what happened. Purdue dominated No. 2 Iowa leading to their first loss and Purdue being ranked for the first time since 2007. Despite some close games against top teams Nebraska couldn't win the game they needed to for bowl eligibility to stay a realistic option leading the guys to discuss if it's finally time to fire Scott Frost. Michigan State survives a tough Indiana team and Jordan's dream is still alive. We are one Michigan win from an undefeated match up between top ten ranked Michigan and Michigan State. Despite, or because of, their success is this the last year for Mel Tucker at Michigan State? With LSU firing Coach Orgeron, Tucker could be a candidate for one of the best jobs in all of college football. It's another limited slate with only five games due to bye weeks but Dante and Jordan preview a few of next weeks games. Can Michigan stay undefeated? Will Purdue keep winning and defeat a stumbling Wisconsin team? and can Indiana out a scare into Ohio State? In their weekly pitstop Jordan discusses his disdain for the Big Ten's lack of effort in trying to recruit, develop and maintain good Quarterbacks. Dante talks about referees in college and the NFL. Why is no one holding them accountable and what changes need to be made to make the sport more enjoyable.

On this episode, Matt is in conversation with one of the most insightful and interesting voices in college football, Secret Base’s Steven Godfrey. Earlier this month, Steven released a Secret Base video rewinding Ohio State’s victory in the inaugural College Football Playoff National Championship Game. He goes into the outside factors that led to the game being far more important than who got to hoist the trophy as confetti rained down. He discusses the ups and downs of the Buckeye’s 2014 season and focuses in on Ezekiel Elliott’s 85 yards through the heart of the south. They also talk about the comparisons between the 2014 and 2021 OSU teams, what this season’s Buckeyes are capable, and much more.

We start the show getting into some conversations about our biggest takeaways from the first half of the season including the defense, the offense, and the national landscape. We then discuss how this might effect the second half of the season and what to expect from the Buckeyes as we get into a gauntlet of a second half schedule. Moving forward we then get into our midseason player awards and discuss how these players have impacted the team in ways that have earned out accolades. The awards include MVP, Biggest Surprise, and a few others. This leads to some conversations about some other players that were considered as well, so a lot of people were kind of honored. To continue on, we get into our positional grades which was harder than it looked and as we take on the role of professor, we just want all our students to succeed. We agreed on some, we disagreed on many, but it was mostly because we had different grading scales.

(10/12/21) https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ On LGHL’s Play Like a Girl podcast, Meredith Hein and Megan Husslein talk everything from Ohio State football to all the happenings in the sports world today. Welcome back! In this week’s edition of the Play Like a Girl podcast, Megan and Meredith reset and refresh during this bye week, and take time to reflect on what’s been a tale of two seasons the first half of the year. With the defense coming together, freshman CJ Stroud looking more and more like one of the best quarterbacks in the nation and fellow frosh TreVeyon Henderson repeatedly breaking the century mark, the pair is definitely getting 2014 vibes.   Because Ohio State is certainly back in the College Football Playoff conversation — especially with the wild weekend of college football we just had (down with Bama!).  Of course, the football season is a marathon, not a sprint, and there’s another half of the regular season to go. Speaking of marathons, the Chicago Marathon and Boston Marathon happened this past Sunday and Monday, so kudos to the thousands of runners who finished (including Shalane Flanagan, who ran both!).  Contact Megan Husslein Twitter: @meganhusslein Contact Meredith Hein Twitter: @MeredithHein Learn more about your ad choices.

In this week’s edition of the Play Like a Girl podcast, Megan and Meredith reset and refresh during this bye week, and take time to reflect on what’s been a tale of two seasons the first half of the year. With the defense coming together, freshman CJ Stroud looking more and more like one of the best quarterbacks in the nation and fellow frosh TreVeyon Henderson repeatedly breaking the century mark, the pair is definitely getting 2014 vibes.   Because Ohio State is certainly back in the College Football Playoff conversation — especially with the wild weekend of college football we just had (down with Bama!).  Of course, the football season is a marathon, not a sprint, and there’s another half of the regular season to go. Speaking of marathons, the Chicago Marathon and Boston Marathon happened this past Sunday and Monday, so kudos to the thousands of runners who finished (including Shalane Flanagan, who ran both!).  Contact Megan Husslein Twitter: @meganhusslein Contact Meredith Hein Twitter: @MeredithHein Learn more about your ad choices.

The Big Ten only has five games this week due to a bunch of teams having bye weeks so there is not a lot to watch for. Which Nebraska team will show up when they play Michigan? Can Ohio State replicate their success and blow out Maryland or will Maryland recover from their 7 turnover performance?

In their weekly pit stops Jordan celebrates the Colts finally getting a win and has some fun at Clemson's expense. Dante disagrees with another Top 25 ranking and makes his case to become an overpaid sports analyst.

Join Gene Ross and Josh Dooley all year long as they break down everything going on in Buckeye Nation on Land-Grant Holy Land's flagship podcast. Coming into the week, we didn’t quite know what to expect from the Buckeyes after a dominant performance against a really bad Akron team. However, it turns out a healthy C.J. Stroud is pretty darn good, as Ohio State beat up on Rutgers 52-13 — and it could have been a heck of a lot worse if Ryan Day didn’t show mercy to former OSU coordinator Greg Schiano by emptying the bench. Gene and Josh break down what they saw on both sides of the ball, including the Heisman-potential of TreVeyon Henderson and the emergence of Tyliek Williams.

]]> 3825 Instant Recap Podcast: Discussing Ohio State’s 52-13 blow out of Rutgers https://landgrantholyland.com/ The Ohio State Buckeyes scored early against the Rutgers Scarlet Knights and never looked back as they raced out to a 45-6 halftime lead before slowing things down after halftime to secure a 53-13 victory. Despite this being this fourth start of the season, Saturday afternoon was official C.J. Stroud’s coming out party, and friends, did he make the most of it. The second-year freshman was 17-for-23 for 330 yards and 5 touchdowns and after a week off to rest an ailing shoulder, he shut the door on any and all legitimate conversations about who should be Ohio State’s starting quarterback. On the LGHL Instant Recap Podcast, Chris Renne and Matt Tamanini discuss Stroud’s near-perfect performance, the impressive — but short — outing by TreVeyon Henderson, the big game from Chris Olave, and more on the offensive side of the ball. But, the biggest impression was made by the guys on the defense. While Rutgers is not a premiere Big Ten offense, the Buckeyes’ performance on Saturday afternoon proved that the changes that Ryan Day, Kerry Coombs, and Matt Barnes have been making are beginning to work.

The conversations include CJ Stroud’s health, the defensive game plan, and what this game can provide Ohio State moving forward.

We also discuss what improvements we need to see in Ohio State’s first real test with Barnes calling plays. We continue into a conversation about Ohio State and where the Buckeyes stand in terms of the B1G, who else is a threat to win the conference, and why Ohio State has control of its own destiny in the playoff race. Lastly, we get into the All-Scarlet uniforms and how this Scarlet out, regardless of time of day, needs to be absolutely bananas. We also get into how there is absolutely no excuse for fans to mess this one up come October 30th.

In this episode Dante and I try to figure out who is actually good in the Big Ten. We talk about Minnesota getting upset, Wisconsin losing their identity and Ohio State finding some conference against Akron. Is Michigan actually a good team? How legit is Penn State? What did OSU gain from beating up on Akron? We're not sure but what we do know is next week we're going to learn a lot more about the Big Ten

In their weekly pit stops Jordan celebrates Clemson losing and Oklahoma not looking great. The media got it wrong about which team of the three was in the worst position. Dante talks about Bowling Green upsetting Minnesota and they make plans to watch Kent State vs. Bowling Green at Kent's homecoming next weekend.

Jordan Williams and Christopher Renne provide an instant recap show to break down the reasons why Ohio State won and what to expect for the Buckeyes moving forward. They get into a discussion about K’Vaughan Pope’s sideline outburst and try to contextualize that moment. Jordan and Chris discuss why fans should not go too hard on him in spite of everything that occurred. The offensive side of the ball played a complete game from start to finish on the back of Henderson, McCord, and the receivers. McCord set a true freshman record, but is that enough for him to challenge Stroud’s starter status. Defensively, they played with effort and executed extremely well after the firsts series, we discuss what changed. Then we get into some of the players who shined and if this will translate for the Buckeyes moving forward. Lastly, we get into our final thoughts from the game and give our final takeaways. It was only Akron, but the Buckeyes played awesome. The next game for Ohio State will be October 2nd against the Rutgers Scarlet Knights.

After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. In this episode of the I-70 football show we welcome back Dante and get into what was a very good weekend of football! After Penn State defeats Auburn we have to ask, how good is Penn State? Dante and Jordan discuss Michigan State’s major upset of Miami and Michigan continuing to dominate teams. We have major issues with the current AP top 25 as all 6 Big Ten teams who are ranked are ranked wrong and there's room for at least one maybe two more teams to be ranked. This next weeks slate of games is not much watch tv as its only marquee game is Wisconsin vs. Notre Dame which might be a bad football game. In a combined Pit Stop Dante and Jordan talk about how no one is good right now. There are no teams, players, or coaches you have faith in. Outside of running backs there is not much to be happy with.... except pure chaos in college football!

On today’s episode, I am in conversation with sixth-year flugelhorn player in the Ohio State Marching Band, Parker Stephens. After a year away from football games and the pomp and circumstance of Ohio Stadium, The Best Damn Band in the Land finally returned to the field last Saturday; and while the results on the field left much to be desired, the thrills and emotions of the band’s return were unmatched. Like the athletes, Stephens was granted a sixth year of eligibility following the COVID-impacted 2020 season. Having recently graduated, Stephens took the band up on the offer and came back from one more year. As a former squad leader of C Row, Stephens knows and loves the marching band as well as anyone and explains what made Saturday so special for him, and what makes the band so special to Ohio State.

Ohio State fell 35-28 to the Ducks on Saturday afternoon, and shortly thereafter Gene and Josh got together to fire off some #takes. The sentiment is the same across all of Buckeye Nation — the defense simply wasn’t good enough, and the coaching staff on that side of the ball is largely to blame. Some are down on CJ Stroud, but the Holy Land boys aren’t ready to give up on him just yet.

Some are down on CJ Stroud, but the Holy Land boys aren’t ready to give up on him just yet. There is a lot to talk about and break down after this one, so give the recap pod a listen if you can stomach the aftermath of Ryan Day’s first regular season loss at Ohio State.

After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. Week 1 in the B1G is over. OSU outlast Minnesota and showcases their insane ability to hit big plays. Led by their defense Iowa dominates Indiana and makes their case to be the best team in the B1G. Dante and Jordan go back and forth trying to determine are Wisconsin and Penn States defenses that good or are the respective offenses just that bad. In a surprise showing Rutgers and Maryland put up 61 & 52 respectively in wins, Michigan State bullies Northwestern and Illinois is the only team to lose a non-conference game with their loss to UTSA. The B1G provided us an amazing slate of games and we couldn't wait to discuss them. As we look forward to next week the B1G has some BIG non-conference games and a bunch of pay games. Ohio State welcomes future #1 pick Kayvon Thibodeaux and his Oregon team into the Shoe. Michigan looks to change the narrative with a dominant win over Washington and Iowa hopes to continue their win streak against in state rival Iowa state.

The team is looking to get to 10-0 against the Ducks and get a marquee out of conference win.

On this show we talk all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. What seems like the longest off-season ever has finally come to an end! Week 0 games have been played and it is officially week 1 of the 2021 college football season! Its only the first week but the B1G held no punches as we have major games in OSU vs. Minnesota, Penn State vs. Wisconsin and Iowa vs. Indiana starting on Thursday and lasting us through the weekend. Dante and Jordan discuss the monumental week 1 slate in the Big Ten, which teams will come out on top, what are the compelling storylines, and what do fans of each team want to see to leave the game with confidence win or lose. Listen while we discuss if Wisconsin need to blow out Penn State to make a statement? Are we right or wrong about Iowa who many media members think could win the B1G and can Minnesota put a scare in OSU behind Mo Ibrahim? In their weekly pitstop Dante discusses 'The Alliance" and what it means for the B1G. Jordan takes a moment to shout out to 3 black QBs, Jameis Winston, Teddy Bridgewater and OSU Alum Dwayne Haskins, getting a second shot in the NFL..

But there’s no shortage of solid games to open the season, including No. 1 Alabama vs. No. 14 Miami, No. 5 Georgia at No. 3 Clemson, No. 17 Indiana at No. 18 Iowa and No. 19 Penn State at No. 12 Wisconsin. 

The pair wrap the show up with discussion of the ACC, Big Ten and Pac-12’s recently announced alliance, impending COVID-19 restrictions at games and, of course, what’s happening in Jacksonville.

This weeks show gets into the OL news and the idea of playing the best five offensive linemen. Jordan and I agree this is the way it should be every year, and although it seems like four positions are locked up the battles will continue long into the season with the 2-deep. Then the conversation surrounding the Linebacker room, Steele Chambers’ position change, and why the room seems like the must understated major question heading in to 2021.

Lastly, we get into Ohio State’s outlook at RB in 2021 and the top RB’s since 2005 with a list that shows this might be the best position (which was hard).

(07/22/21) https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ On LGHL’s Play Like a Girl podcast, Meredith Hein and Kelsey Trainor talk everything from Ohio State football to all the happenings in the sports world today. After being delayed for a very long year, the 2021 Tokyo Olympics are here at long last. That’s why, on this week’s edition of the pod, Meredith and Megan talked all things Olympics. ICYMI, the Opening Ceremonies are scheduled for this Friday, and Team USA just announced that hoops great Sue Bird and baseball player/speed skater (you read that right) Eddy Alvarez will be flag bearers. Great choices all-around (get it? Because of gymnastics?) The pair also discussed the USWNT’s surprising loss to Sweden in their first Olympic game, snapping a 44-game unbeaten streak. On a more positive note, they got into Team USA softball, and the team of newcomers and veterans who are coming together to bring home a gold after the sport was absent for two-straight Olympic Games.  But because it’s this podcast, Megan and Meredith also talked Buckeyes in the Olympics — including Adelaide Aquilla, the walk-on-turned-Olympian shot putter, and all-time wrestling great Kyle Snyder.  Contact Megan Husslein Twitter: @meganhusslein Contact Meredith Hein Twitter: @MeredithHein Learn more about your ad choices.

The only basketball-focused podcast in the LGHL family of podcasts, co-hosts Connor Lemons and Justin Golba give the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes as well as all the other happenings in the college hoops world. During the offseason the Bucketheads will release an episode once every two weeks, with the structure shifting to weekly as we get closer to college basketball season. During what normally would be an off-week for the Buckethead podcast, Connor and Justin decided to record a bonus episode dedicated wholly and completely to the TBT bracket. With games tipping off this Friday, our resident basketball writers run through the bracket and make their picks — and include some very interesting upsets. Justin is a big fan of 12th-seeded SCD Hoops in the Illinois region, and Connor has 15-seed WoCo Showtime winning a few more games than he probably should have. Take it with a grain of salt though, because the question “Who is this?” came up more than a few times.

We begin the show with our unpopular opinions with Jordan leading us off talking about a certain RB and his skill level. Then I get into mine about the DB’s and how they are going to perform in 2021. Moving forward we discuss the expectations for the 2021 class after it was finalized with the JTT decision. Our expectations are extremely high for Ryan Day’s squad moving forward, but you have to listen to see how high. After the break Jordan gives the hottest takes I’ve heard from someone who covers Ohio State. We also discuss the disrespect that Ryan Day is getting due to a stupid list and how Ryan Day is definitively better than almost every coach in the country. Lastly, we get into Ohio State’s top LB’s since 2005 with a list that shows this might be the best position.

Join Gene Ross and Josh Dooley all year long as they break down everything going on in Buckeye Nation on Land-Grant Holy Land's flagship podcast.

They talk about the opportunities that are now available to the athletes as well as some of their concerns about where things could go wrong. They then shift to the recruiting world, as the Buckeyes landed a pair of massive prospects in the past few days in five-star 2021 defensive end J.T.

The duo lauds the work of both Larry Johnson and Brian Hartline, as well as discuss where both prospects fit into Ohio State’s plans — including a lengthy discussion about whether or not JTT is a realistic option on the basketball court.

]]> 1650 Hangout in the Holy Land: Breaking Duane Washington News, Tuimoloau Updates, Chris McClellan Crystal Balls (06/30/2021) https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ The hosts are new, but the sarcasm hasn’t changed a bit. Join Gene Ross and Josh Dooley all year long as they break down everything going on in Buckeye Nation on Land-Grant Holy Land's flagship podcast. On this week’s episode, as the guys started off the podcast discussing the latest in Ohio State recruiting. They talk about the latest surrounding J.T. Tuimoloau and how we should handle #JTTWatch, as well as a slew of new Crystal Ball predictions for yet another quality defensive lineman in the 2022 class. They then pivoted to to basketball, where they took a look at some of the biggest matchups in this year’s Big Ten/ACC Challenge and ponder the futures of E.J. Liddell and Duane Washington Jr. That is when everything went awry, as shortly thereafter news broke that Washington would be remaining in the NBA Draft and not returning to Ohio State. The guys react to the news as it happened, and discuss how this will impact both the Buckeyes and the future of Washington. As if that wasn’t enough, news broke at nearly the identical moment that five-star 2023 Ohio native defensive end Brenan Vernon has committed to Notre Dame. A big blow for Ohio State, Vernon’s decision came as a bit of a surprise.

On this week’s edition of Play Like a Girl, Kelsey and Meredith talk more about the Olympic rosters announced this week, including women’s hoops and soccer. There are a lot of familiar names on both squads — including now five-time Olympians Sue Bird and Diana Taurasi on the basketball side of things, plus, a pair of sisters playing on the biggest stage for USA Soccer.  It’s not all good news, though. The pair also talk a recent announcement from the New York Mets that the club will be updating its anti-harassment policies...you remember, because of that time the former GM sent a lewd, unsolicited photo to a reporter.  But, Kelsey and Meredith wrapped things up with great news to end Pride Month, with the Raiders’ Carl Nassib coming out this week as the first openly gay active player in the NFL. If his jersey sales are any indication, it turns out that inclusion really does matter.  Contact Kelsey Trainor Twitter: @KTrain_11 Contact Meredith Hein Twitter: @MeredithHein Learn more about your ad choices.

Liddell, Wisky Drama, & TBT Bracket Analysis (06/23/2021) https://www.landgrantholyland.com/ Land-Grant Holy Land’s newest podcast, ‘Bucketheads’ takes you on a journey across the college basketball landscape every episode. The only basketball-focused podcast in the LGHL family of podcasts, co-hosts Connor Lemons and Justin Golba give the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes as well as all the other happenings in the college hoops world. During the offseason the Bucketheads will release an episode once every two weeks, with the structure shifting to weekly as we get closer to college basketball season. On today’s episode, Connor and Justin discuss Duane Washington Jr. and E.J. Liddell’s performances at the NBA G-League Elite Camp, as well as Duane’s last-second NBA Combine invitation. Are we suddenly looking at a situation where half of Ohio State’s dynamic duo could be packing their bags and leaving Columbus for good? They also talk about how much Buckeye fans should temper their expectations should one — or both — move on. They also break down the ongoing saga happening up in Madison, Wisconsin, as a recording of a private meeting between Badgers’ head coach Greg Gard and his seven senior players was recently leaked to Wisconsin State Journal. During the meeting, the senior players lashed out at their head coach, at one point telling him that they competed hard on the court not to win games, but to “Prove you (Gard) wrong.” We’re not totally sure what’s happening with the Wisconsin program right now, but I’ll be sure to make some popcorn while I watch it all unfold. Finally, the fellas quickly run through the 2021 TBT bracket and point out a few teams that catch their eye as possible sleepers in this year’s tournament.

We begin the show discussing the failures of Jim Harbaugh and how every time he says something it backfires immediately. This leads to a conversation about Ohio State’s greatest foe and the current state of the rivalry. We then get into a fun conversation about two Ohio State Buckeye legends building a prep school in Ohio to rival the IMG Academies. Two Buckeyes left the program which led to us discussing the greater issues surrounding the current state of the transfer portal and how it may look in the future.

Your hosts, Tia Johnston and Matt Tamanini, will (of course) talk Ohio State football, but the primary focus of the show will be on what’s going on around the periphery, such as weird/funny happenings in college football and the sports world at large, as well as other things that keep us interested in between games, whether that’s pop culture, social media trends— you name it. At the start of the show, Tia and Matt receive breaking news that the national championship game may be postponed due to a high number of positive tests and contact tracing within Ohio State's program. They unpack what this means, whether or not they think it'll happen, and why Alabama fans might want to take a seat when it comes to their poor takes on the matter. Then, despite this podcast not usually being centered around football-talk, they had to get into the glorious day that was January 1, 2021, aka the day Ohio State beat Clemson's socks off in the form of 49-28. They discuss the Buckeyes' flawless game plan, the similarities between this year's and last year's matchup, why they're so happy for Chris Olave, and last but not least, the sensation that is Trey Sermon.

Your hosts, Tia Johnston and Matt Tamanini, will (of course) talk Ohio State football, but the primary focus of the show will be on what’s going on around the periphery, such as weird/funny happenings in college football and the sports world at large, as well as other things that keep us interested in between games, whether that’s pop culture, social media trends— you name it. Today’s show gets a tad more serious compared to our usual nonsense, all thanks to some of the responses Matt received on his article about Larry Johnson becoming Ohio State’s first black head coach (had Ohio State’s game against Illinois went ahead). We discussed why people feel the need to either downplay or flat out not accept this kind of milestone, which is how we then transitioned into discussing my new role model, Sarah Fuller, who became the first woman to play for a P5 team when she kicked off for Vanderbilt on Saturday. But don’t you worry! The second half of the episode is lighthearted at best, as we discuss our favorite Christmas traditions, Christmas albums and a super famous celebrity who is a huge fan of Matt’s day job podcast, True Crime Obsessed. I won’t give the celeb away, but let’s just say the pressure is on for Matt. And of course, last but certainly not least, we name the winner of the Flavored Chip Region of our infamous Chip Bracket, before arguing the Adjacent Chip Region down to two finalists. You know the drill, head to our Twitter account to vote for who you think should move onto the Final 4 — Bold Chex Mix or Bugles?!

She also explores the Committee on Women’s Athletics, which focuses on identifying emerging sports for women. This committee played a key role in adding women’s rowing to the list of NCAA-sanctioned sports — a sport in which Ohio State’s program has three titles. The group also influenced the addition of women’s ice hockey to the NCAA ranks, with the Buckeyes benefiting once again, having earned a conference championship this season.  The main players on the current list of emerging sports for women include rugby, equestrian and triathlon.

The men are defending national indoor champs, while the women made it through from their regional in 2019 before ultimately falling to Duke.  The podcast also previews the men’s tennis season up ahead. That’s because beyond the ITA Indoor Championships lay the true goal for the Buckeyes: an NCAA Tournament title.

It may only be January, but lacrosse is already poised to kick-off its 2020 campaign Saturday at noon against Marquette in Columbus. The Buckeyes are coming off something of a disappointing season in 2019. After going a perfect 7-0 in non-conference play, Ohio State struggled in a tough Big Ten, ultimately finishing the season with an 8-4 record and missing out on the postseason entirely.   However, things are looking up for Nick Myers’ squad. The Buckeyes return most of their scoring power from last season, including three-time All-American midfielder Tre Leclaire, and are bringing on a top recruiting class which can contribute immediately on the field.

Today we talk an LGHL legend, SBNation's Associate Director of College Brands, Matt Brown. As summer approaches and attention turns to fall, there will be plenty of time to break down the first season of Ohio State's Ryan Day era, but before we do that, we wanted to attempt to put a bow on Urban Meyer's tenure in Columbus. The legendary coach was obviously wildly successful on the field, but his final season in scarlet and gray has created (or exacerbated) some negative feelings about him outside of Buckeye Nation. Matt Brown and Host Matt Tamanini talk about whether Meyer's tenure lived up to expectations, what his greatest legacy will be with the Buckeyes, and whether or not Day can continue the success of his predecessor.

We also look at the misadventures of the offensive line and whether or not any tweaks need to be made personnel wise at this juncture.
