Ohio State and Ryan Day's prized possession in next year's recruiting class has got to be 5-star QB Tavien St. Clair. With last year, and potentially this year, resulting in mediocre QB play from the Buckeyes, it's crucial for Ryan Day to land a home run in this upcoming recruiting class. Will Howard and Devin Brown are clearly not the caliber of players that Buckeye nation is accustomed to at the QB position. Can St. Clair bring Ohio State QB play back to the level of CJ Stroud, Justin Fields, and Dwayne Haskins?     Help out our dude Richie and his family!    https://www.gofundme.com/f/raising-courageous-and-strong-sisters-of-gsd1a       MENACE COFFEE!   https://menace2coffee.com/    MENACE MERCH!!!https://menace2merch.com/    Get 20% Off and Free Shipping with LUCY for your nicotine pouches!   https://www.lucy.co/menace    TRY MIRACLE MADE SHEETS NOW!https://trymiracle.com/MENACE    FREE CASH BONUS WITH MyBookie:https://mybookie.website/Menace2Sports   The BEST Athletic wear you will find anywhere:https://mikeydapparel.com/   VIP Subscribers:https://www.patreon.com/menace2sports  - Custom RSS Feed (Straight to your phone - No iTunes or Spotify) - Exclusive Content, Shows and Videos - Exclusive Call-In Ability for Live Shows - Starting at $5 a month!

OVE: Will the 2024 Ohio State Defense be the BEST In Program History?

In the era of NIL and transfer portal, we're seeing a common problem throughout the sport of college football. Players are committing to and from schools at will throughout the recruitment process and then transferring to and from schools once they are enrolled. Ohio State and coach Ryan Day are familiar with this, as Dylan Raiola de-commit to two different schools, one of them being the Buckeyes, before finally landing with Matt Rhule and Nebraska. Now, Jaden Rashada is transferring from Arizona State after he also de-committed from several schools throughout his recruiting process.

College Football's Biggest PROBLEM Regarding NIL & Transfer Portal

The rumors are swirling around that Ohio State head coach Ryan Day has named a starter for the 2024 college football season after Day was spotted with Will Howard at his country club yesterday.

Can Will Howard be the one to beat Michigan and lead Ohio State to a Big Ten championship, and maybe even a national title?   Subscribe to our new YouTube page: https://www.youtube.com/@OhioVsEveryone   Custom Air - Trusted Columbus, OH HVAC Service, Repair & Installation (614) 552-4822 https://customairco.com/   Hurt at work or in an Accident?

OVE: Has Ryan Day Put an END to the Ohio State QB Competition?

Spring practice has come and gone without Ohio State head coach Ryan Day giving any indication on who the starting QB would be for the upcoming season. Devin Brown is the longest tenured guy in the room, and has reportedly been ahead of the pack after a majority of the spring practices. Julian Sayin has shown flashes of brilliance while also reminding everyone that he is only a true freshman at times. Then there's the million dollar man: Will Howard. The transfer from Kansas State who's both won a conference championship, and lost the starting job in the middle of the season. After a hangout with Coach Day at his country club yesterday, is Howard the man to lead the Buckeyes offense for the 2024 college football season and end the losing streak to Michigan?     Help out our dude Richie and his family!    https://www.gofundme.com/f/raising-courageous-and-strong-sisters-of-gsd1a       MENACE COFFEE!   https://menace2coffee.com/    MENACE MERCH!!!https://menace2merch.com/    Get 20% Off and Free Shipping with LUCY for your nicotine pouches!   https://www.lucy.co/menace    TRY MIRACLE MADE SHEETS NOW!https://trymiracle.com/MENACE    FREE CASH BONUS WITH MyBookie:https://mybookie.website/Menace2Sports   The BEST Athletic wear you will find anywhere:https://mikeydapparel.com/   VIP Subscribers:https://www.patreon.com/menace2sports  - Custom RSS Feed (Straight to your phone - No iTunes or Spotify) - Exclusive Content, Shows and Videos - Exclusive Call-In Ability for Live Shows - Starting at $5 a month!
