Not sure there’s a whole lot to really say about the spring game. It’s always fun to watch, but it’s just a glorified practice with some bells and whistles attached to it. Defense was very vanilla as advertised. Although I feel like I seen some guys flying around I liked that, some guys looked bigger and stronger as well. Offense was watered down as well. All 3 QB’s looked good, WR core is top notch again, and Pryor had a nice game. He should see more playing time this season as the change of pace back, maybe kick returner as well. Will be interesting to see if anyone else transfers since the spring is over with now.

I know you were trying to stir the pot, but you made an astute observation about Ohio State football and college football in general.

The Buckeyes are still one of the top programs, but interest in OSU football seems to be in a bit of decline the further out we get from their national championship year of 2014.

Buckeye home games are no longer legitimately sold out in terms of fans in the stadium. Also a lot of the CFP or bust mentality is now missing from OSU media coverage. Sadly overall attendance and interest in college football is trending down.

That said, college football needs new story lines to rekindled interest, attendance, and TV ratings. Somebody needs to beat the SEC in the playoffs and some of the old line blue blood programs need to rise up. Michigan did their part in being a new face in the playoffs last year. Will 2022 be a repeat of SEC! SEC! ? Hopefully the narrative will change.

Southeast Ohio Buckeyes in the spring game:

Ironton's Reid Carrico played 22 snaps at linebacker and 1 special team play.

Trimble's Cameron Kittle got in on 34 snaps at cornerback. He also gathered in a nifty interception at the 16:40 mark:

OSU junior defensive end Noah Potter has entered the transfer portal.

The four star recruit out of Mentor Ohio was buried on the depth chart after missing all of 2021 with an eye injury.

This leaves Ohio State at 86 scholarships, one over the NCAA limit.

Andre Turrentine is leaving Ohio State after just one year.

The redshirt freshman safety has entered the transfer portal after just one season with the Buckeyes, an Ohio State spokesperson confirmed Monday.

With the new Defensive Coordinator, transfers are to be expected.

Ohio State adds FCS opponent Youngstown State to its 2023 schedule. The Penguins replace San Jose St. That game was cancelled by mutual agreement.



I guess OSU fans will not have any grounds to criticize the SEC's chicken$hit Saturday.

No one ever said that Ohio State fans were rational in their fandom..I live in the Land of Clemson now, and Tiger fans view Ohio State fans as delusional and holier than thou about the Buckeyes. Case in point no championships since 2014 and holding a flawed Urban Meyer upon a pedestal. The bottom line is those who live in glass houses should throw no stones.

From Eleven Warriors:

The redshirt sophomore defensive back entered the transfer portal on Monday, an Ohio State spokesperson confirmed.

Cavazos was not in attendance for Ohio State’s student appreciation day on Saturday, and now, he’s opted to leave the team altogether to continue his college football career elsewhere in search of increased playing time.

A four-star recruit in the class of 2020, Cavazos appeared in 11 games last season as a backup cornerback but appeared unlikely to be any higher than fifth on the cornerback depth chart in 2022 with Denzel Burke and Cameron Brown returning as starters and the emergence of second-year cornerbacks Jordan Hancock and Jakailin Johnson.(excerpt)

The first of several Buckeye players expected to enter the transfer portal. You hate to see it but with the Buckeyes currently over the scholarship limit and with new coaches evaluating players, turnover of players is unavoidable.

His departure leaves the Buckeyes at least 6 players over the scholarship limit of 85.

Transfer placekicker Parker Lewis to transfer from USC to Ohio State




His transfer raises a question about the status of Noah Ruggles, the 2021 star kicker for the Buckeyes. He was supposed to return for the 2022 season, but did not participate in spring practice.

Six Buckeyes Selected In 2022 NFL Draft


Rd Pick Player Pos. Team
1 10 GARRETT WILSON WR JETS
1 11 CHRIS OLAVE WR SAINTS
3 69 NICHOLAS PETIT-FRERE OT TITANS
3 101 JEREMY RUCKERT TE JETS
5 158 TYREKE SMITH DE SEAHAWKS
7 238 THAYER MUNFORD OL RAIDERS

This is fewest Buckeyes drafted in 7 years

Non Drafted Free Agent Signings

Haskell Garrett. Titans
Master Teauge. Bears


I think the real surprise is that Haskell Garrett went undrafted and only one OSU defensive player was selected. I guess this is a reflection on State's defensive woes over the last two seasons.

National Champion Georgia led all schools with 15 players being drafted.

I feel this is one transfer loss that the Buckeyes wish they had back next year.
