Caleb Downs and Lathan Ransom are going to form one of the best safety tandems in college football this season. It sparked a question that we have been pondering: When was the last time Ohio State had a safety combination this good? Also, is the other shoe going to drop at Michigan relatively soon, or should fans not get their hopes up since the NCAA moves at a very slow pace? Matt Baxendell and Dave Biddle also take a look at biggest developments from the Buckeyes' training camp and more. All of that and more is coming your way on the Wednesday 5ish.

Among those we tackled: * Will Palaie Gaoetete be a Buckeye? * Is Julian Fleming headed for stardom? * Which B1G road game will be toughest? * Can Jaxon Smith-Njigba amass 40 receptions this season? * Zach Harrison: Truth or fiction? * Does Kyle McCord have real chances win the starting QB gig? * What is Duane's favorite Kentucky bourbon?

It was certainly an interesting day yesterday for Buckeye Nation. Jonah Booker joins Dave Biddle on today's show to discuss the situation involving a massage therapist who is accused of giving improper massages to Ohio State football players. Also on the agenda: * Will Ohio State land linebacker transfer Palaie Gaoteoto? * What does JBook think of the Buckeyes' current collection of linebackers? * Why is the OSU-Oregon game slated for noon and is not a night game?

Can Ryan Day and Co. do it again? Ohio State secured a commitment from Quinn Ewers, the nation's top Class of 2022 quarterback. The top signal caller in 2023 is American QB royalty: Arch Manning, the grandson of Archie, nephew of Peyton and Eli. Do the Buckeyes have a legit shot to pull Manning out of his native New Orleans. 247Sports Director of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong is here to discuss that, Crystal Balls rolling towards Columbus and a whole lot more.

How will Ohio State's secondary look in 2021? Which players will step up as stars or at least solid starters? Matt Baxendell joins Dave Biddle to take a close look at the Buckeyes' DBs on today's show. Are we buying the projections that Sevyn Banks will be a first-round pick next year?

The offseason is in full swing and we are going to do a series of position breakdowns on the show. We figured we would start with the glamor position for Ohio State: the tight ends. Wait, what? Alright, it might not quite be the marquee position for the Buckeyes, but it will be an important part of Chip Kelly's offense. How is the depth chart shaping up with fifth-year senior Gee Scott Jr., fourth-year junior Will Kacmarek who transferred in from Ohio University, sophomore Jelani Thurman, third-year sophomore Bennett Christian and fourth-year junior walk-on (who might not be a walk-on for much longer) Patrick Gurd? What can be expected from the group? How much 12 personnel will the Buckeyes deploy under Kelly's guidance? Dave Biddle and Matt Baxendell discuss that on today's show, plus: * It looks like the dust has settled on the transfer portal from OSU's perspective. There are a total of six Buckeyes who entered the portal during this window, but other than perhaps Dallan Hayden -- who was in line to be the No. 3 tailback -- it does not appear as though OSU lost anyone who was in the plans for meaningful playing time. Are we surprised none of the Buckeyes' quarterbacks entered the portal? * We take questions from our live audience on a variety of Ohio State football topics.

Ohio State wanted Henry To'o To'o bad, but they didn't get him. And they wanted him to be the starting middle linebacker. Therefore, what does this say about the Buckeyes' current situation at middle linebacker? Dave Biddle flies solo on this edition of the show to discuss that, what fans can expect from guys like Cody Simon and Dallas Gant, the good news that it's looking more and more like we will have full capacities for OSU football games this fall, two young defensive backs to get excited about for the Buckeyes and more.

You know the names. You know the position. You know the NFL Draft round: First (usually).  Ohio State cornerbacks Bradley Roby (2014), Eli Apple (2016), Marshon Lattimore (2017), Gareon Conley (2017), Denzel Ward (2018), Jeffrey Okudah (2020) and Damon Arnette (2020) all enjoyed first round signing bonus cash. Other starters along the way - Doran Grant (2015-fourth round), Kendall Sheffield (2019-fourth round) and Shaun Wade (2021-sixth round) also heard their names called, albeit later than desired. But this much is clear: If you're an Ohio State starting cornerback, chances are you're headed to the NFL. Really, really good chances.  Word has reached Florida when it comes to cornerback and team success in Columbus. On Wednesday, the Buckeyes received a commitment from cornerback Ryan Turner. He joins  fellow Floridian defensive back Jaheim Singletary and Kyle Stokes in the Class of 2022 haul Ohio State is putting together. Will the Sunshine State takeover continue? What are the vibes on those already in the fold? We discuss this and a whole lot more today with 247Sports Director of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong. Spend 5ish with this a.m., 'Nutters!

Wide receiver Jameson Williams has transferred from Ohio State to Alabama, and now the question is why. Was it simply about playing time? Are there more issues at play?

Jameson Williams left Ohio State for Alabama. Let that sink in. Why did Juice choose The Fighting Nick Sabans? Why did Juice leave in the first place? What does it say about Ohio State's wide receiver room? Is this the beginning of a consistent exodus as at least one in the Willams camp has predicted?

On Sunday, there was a bit of a recruiting surprise as Ohio State landed 3-star prospect Kye Stokes from Florida. However, calling Stokes a 3-star recruit is not something that people will be able to do for much longer as his offer list is extremely impressive and it looks like the Buckeyes landed a good one. Patrick Murphy joins Dave Biddle for today's show to discuss that and look back on the NFL Draft from Ohio State's perspective. And here's a little tease: the reports that tight end Luke Farrell from OSU (who was taken by the Jacksonville Jaguars with the first pick of the fifth round) is a 29-year-old former minor league baseball player are false. And you will get to hear Patrick and Dave figure that out in real time. All of that and more is coming your way on the Monday 5ish.

We are talking Fields and a whole lot more this a.m. with 247Sports Director of Recruiting Steve Witlfong. Nobody has been covering Fields longer and Wiltfong has some strong opinions on where he SHOULD land. We also go deep on Pete Werner and Justin Hilliard, two Buckeyes making a late push for more draft cash. But that's not all.
