Ohio State Football is just a little more than 24 hours away from its third game of the season but at this point nobody is ready to move on to Tulsa and the focus remains on the loss to Oregon and the problems that have emerged through the first two games of the season. Can this team salvage things on the defensive side of the ball and are things not as rosy as they look on offense despite a lot of yards gained?
We bring in a longtime friend with Josh of College Football Nerds to talk about some of the numbers behind the Ohio State Buckeyes through just eight quarters of football. Can you repair the engines of a plane that is already at 35,000-feet? What changes need to be made and will the Buckeyes be the last team standing in the Big Ten?
All of that and more in the Big Me Kickoff. Check it out.

Just how close did this Ohio State versus Oregon come to being canceled? We lost the 2020 edition due to COVID but according to our guest, James Crepea of Fox Sports Oregon, this game came close to the brink. We talk that, Kayvon Thibodeaux and a whole lot more in this premiere edition of the Big Me Kickoff show.

It is game week for the Buckeyes and we are talking about the week one opponent with someone who follows the team closely. We are joined by Sean Williams as he talked about the 2021 edition of the Minnesota Golden Gophers. What should Buckeyes fans expect out of their first opponent? Can Tanner Morgan and Mo Ibrahim lead the home team to a shocking upset of the Buckeyes or will problems from 2020 stick around and keep the Gophers underground?

Quinn Ewers is coming early and will join the Ohio State quarterback room for 2021. We have our immediate reaction to this news.

BIA is providing instant access based on the news that was just dropped by Pete Thamel of Yahoo Sports as it appears that Ohio State class of 2022 commit Quinn Ewers is thinking about being a class of 2021 quarterback commit and enroll early and take advantage of Name, Image, Likeness, something that he could not do as a Texas high schooler.

Check out Kevin Noon and Joseph Hastings as they drop their way too early thoughts on this, just minutes after the report dropped.

Ohio State Buckeyes Recruiting had a busy week over the past seven days with three major commits including the huge news with JT Tuimoloau, finally ending his recruitment well into overtime after pledging to Ohio State.
Couple that with a pair of ’22 stars with Terrance Brooks and Kojo Antwi and it was a productive run for Ryan Day and staff, but July promises more fireworks and we are here to talk about them.
What is Ohio State getting in its trio of talented players? Who could be on the cusp?
And why should Kevin Noon take more vacations? We will explain that and a whole lot more on your one-stop for all things Buckeyes Recruiting here on the BIA Podcast.
Joseph Hastings joins Kevin Noon here on the Wednesday edition for all the latest from the world of recruiting.

It's been a long time in the making but Ohio State has its guy in JT Tuimoloau. We go to the breaking airwaves with our thoughts on this huge news.

Ohio State Buckeyes Recruiting is not just about football as the men’s basketball team has been very busy with a lot of official visits as well as spreading a good number of offers out there. What is Chris Holtmann’s team up to? We bring in Jake Spegal to join Kevin Noon on the BIA Podcast to talk about all of the latest.
Plus, the Buckeyes have a new assistant coach in Tony Skinn, what does that mean on the trail? We talk about that.
And will Ohio State get its elusive big-man in the class of 2022? We put special focus on that as well.

The Friday news dump is real as it was reported by Brandon Huffman that class of 2021 defensive line target JT Tuimoloau is ready to shut things down, not taking an official visit to Alabama and will consider a group of four schools that includes Ohio State.
Tuimoloau, a five-star out of the state of Washington has not been one to do many interviews so the news of him coming out and changing his plans is a big deal and got us ready to jump out and do a podcast to put things into perspective.
Now, we are not sure where JTT is going. We feel that JTT may not even be sure where he is going. Does this mean that Ohio State, the favorite going into the visits is still the favorite? Does Oregon, the school that received the last visit is the favorite? Or is it Washington? Or USC?
We are not sure, but we talk about it at length as we try and sort things out with you on this recruitment.
Plus, Ohio State is going into its final visit weekend of the month, we talk about that and more. Has this been a successful month on the recruiting trail? Are you underwhelmed? Did they overperform? There is still almost a week to go, but we talk about that as well.

It is a big week for Ohio State football recruiting with the Rivals Five-Star Challenge taking place in Atlanta while Ohio State had had a pair of football camps take place this week, a big official visit weekend is taking place for the class of 2022, and oh yeah, a big 2021 prospect is starting his official visit weekend as well, it’s JT Tuimoloau, for those who are not keeping track.
So much going on, so much to talk about, and things are evolving by the second. That is why we have the BuckeyeGrove Instant Access podcast here, to try and wrap a few things up, at least for the moment as we just don’t know what is in store at the next twist and/or turn.
Join Kevin Noon from Ohio and Joseph Hastings who is in Atlanta as we try and bring a little clarity as to what is going on with everything on the recruiting front. And if you are not a member, why not? Take advantage of our excellent free trial promo and don’t miss a thing.
