Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning

The Ohio State football team is set to open its 2025 spring practice schedule on Monday, March 17. It will be the first time the full team participates in an official practice since winning the national championship over Notre Dame in Atlanta back in January. 

While a lot of positions are up for grabs on the Buckeyes' two-deep, one of the biggest areas of interest for Ohio State fans involves the return of sophomore wide receiver Jeremiah Smith, and what his second season in Columbus could look like. 

Ohio State offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach Brian Hartline addressed that and much more during a recent interview, and you're going to get to hear what he had to say on this episode of the Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning podcast.

Ryan Day gave a very detailed and very interesting answer last week when discussing the thought process behind the hire of Ohio State's new defensive coordinator Matt Patricia. 

Ross Fulton, the Xs and Os guru from BuckeyeHuddle.com, joins host Tom Orr to discuss Day's rationale, and what it could mean for the 2025 Ohio State football team. 

• How Nick Saban's offensive coordinators at Alabama could serve as a model for Ryan Day's defensive coordinator hires, including Patricia, at Ohio State.
• How the Buckeyes need to keep evolving on defense, and how Patricia's diverse style of fronts could put OSU's players in a position to be successful.
• How Patricia and co-coordinator Tim Walton will work together, specializing in the front end and back end of the defense. 
• The importance of continuity on the defensive staff, and why it was significant that Patricia was willing to work with the existing Ohio State defensive staff. 

Tyler Bowen is the new offensive line coach and run game coordinator at Ohio State, replacing Justin Frye. How will his experience as a play-caller help new offensive coordinator Brian Hartline? 

In this episode of the Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning podcast, you'll hear directly from Bowen on his new role, recruiting as an Ohio State assistant, his first impressions of the Buckeye offensive line, and much more.
