Glad he’s here and hope he doesn’t have to play this year.

Just when I thought I had a sense of what is going on....

Three-star grad transfer from Columbus and Fred Pagac’s nephew? Seems like a natural fit. I wonder what happened the first time around when he came out of high school.

here we go...

“Updated story on Matthew Baldwin's impending transfer will be posted soon. Bottom line: It was homesickness more than competition that drove the decision.”

A talent so sought after it almost ruined both OSU and Texas.

Seems to track the ball better than anyone at OSU since Devin Smith. Plus he's strong enough to go up and take it. This kid has to see the field this year.

I am amped for the spring game and expecting the Bucks to be awesome this year.

I guess you'll have to ask Miami Martell if the real reason for his transfer was to take a principled stand about the importance of active employer supervision over domestic disputes. I agree that players should be allowed to transfer just like coaches, and it appears that the NCAA is moving in that direction.

I think the precedent here is that players can transfer if the coach they came to play for leaves. I'm generally fine with that.

Good landing spot for Tathan.

I am so pumped for this season.

I liked Hafley's energy too -- and his promise that the CBs will turn their heads around and track the ball in coverage this year!

Day retained the coaches he wanted to keep (for the most part), rebuilt the defensive staff and added a well-regarded QB coach, avoided a mass defection of players and recruits following the exit of an all-time great coach, got Fields enrolled in classes with approval to play appearing likely, and yesterday signed two monster recruits on the OL. I'm definitely biased, but Day's performance so far has been very impressive to me.

https://247sports.com/college/ohio-state/Article/Ohio-State-Buckeyes-Brian-Snead-part-ways-127262812/Amp/ Snead is out. I had very high hopes for him and still have no clue what happened. So now it’s Dobbins, McCall, and Teague. Should be interesting.

Maybe they don't want to be blamed anymore for his playcalling?

What is going on in Happy Valley?

I predict he’ll be a Heisman finalist and have the Sooners back in the playoffs next year.

Way to wait until the last minute and get my hopes up, Kendall.

I saw online that today is the last day for underclassmen to declare. Should see some action this afternoon.

That’s a big one. Mr. Reliable.

Wilkins. Yes please.

Couldn’t agree more about the outgoing staff. Not sure yet about the incoming guys. I don’t know anything about Hafley other than his former position, which at least addresses an obvious need. Mattison on the other hand... I have respect for the guy but we already have an old D-line coach. I also want to see what happens with the LB spot. Just a lot of movement and (unlike the changes on offense) it’s not entirely clear to me how it’s all coming together. I get that Day’s been HC for about a week so I’m content to sit and watch what he does without a ton of anxiety. For now.

Seems like a lot of chaos on that side of the ball and I’m not sure I see a clear upgrade. Reserving judgement.
