We went live with our weekly Skull Session Recruiting Podcast. The Ohio State football team does not have a game this weekend but there is no shortage of recruiting intrigue out there as the Buckeyes continue to add to their top-rated recruiting class. Join Marc Givler and Kevin Noon for plenty of questions surrounding the recruiting efforts.

It was a busy week for the Buckeyes as they landed a big-time commit in Phillip Bell at wide receiver. What is Ohio State getting there? Plus, offensive line recruiting remains in focus as fans are getting nervous that another cycle could pass without a franchise tackle. We talk that and what could be in store in 2026. Plus, JJ Smith is already helping the Buckeyes on the field but there also will be help off the field as Smith's legacy continues to grow.

The first week of the high school football season is in the books in the state of Ohio and we are here to talk about what we saw.

The commitment of offensive lineman Jayvon McFadden may go under the radar with some Ohio State fans, but we are here to tell you why this is a big deal.

The Buckeyes have come in as a runner up on several key targets as of late. Is it time for the Buckeyes to look at the board and start over? We talk about that, the idea of throwing more offers out there and so much more in this special LIVE edition of our recruiting podcast.

Ohio State has landed another big-time wide receiver prospect as Bergen Catholic (NJ) star Quincy Porter gave his pledge to the Buckeyes. What does this commitment mean for Brian Hartline's wide receivers room? Marc Givler and Tony Gerdeman break it all down.

Ohio State has long had a presence in Georgia on the recruiting trail but now it's also finding itself in some big battles in the state of Alabama. We have the latest on the big recruiting swings that the Buckeyes are taking in the Deep South in this episode of the Skull Session Recruiting Podcast.

2026 Greensboro (NC) Grimsley QB Faizon Brandon is rated by some as the No. 1 junior prospect in the nation. We caught up with Brandon on our Southern Swing to gauge his interest in Ohio State and when he might make it up to Columbus for a visit.

We caught up with the nation's number one prospect, Charlotte (NC) Providence Day offensive tackle David Sanders Jr., as part of our Southern Swing recruiting tour. Have the Buckeyes gained momentum in this recruitment? Why did he quietly make another return visit this past weekend?

We dive into all of those topics, and more, in this episode of the Skull Session Recruiting Podcast.

Our Southern Swing recruiting tour took us to the Charlotte, North Carolina area where we checked on super 2026 linebacker Thomas Davis Jr. Davis is the son of former UGA and Carolina Panthers great Thomas Davis Sr. and has racked up a ton of national interest. We went one-on-one with him to discuss what he likes about Ohio State, his recent visit, and more.
