Buckeye Scoot family, Buckeye nation was good.
I see y'all in the chat going hard, per usual suspects, we're going to dive right into
it.
We're going to talk about a generational five-star, a house state, excuse me, phenom.
It's a familiar name, and there's been some updates with this prospect we're going to
talk about as well.
And so, remember, when you send us one of our super chats, it helps to go towards the
pay it forward, which is our military and our first responders.
We're going to look out for them because they always look out for us, Nevada.
What's up, man?
How are you feeling after this weekend, busy sports weekend, and you know, I know you got
some stuff coming up, what's going on?
Yeah, just kind of sad that it'll house that to make the sweet 16.
But you know, hey, we're in the spring football, lots of great things going on.
And some recruiting stuff really starting to pick up for the Buckeyes as well, and you
know, the Ohio State brands never been hotter, and you know, they announced today, Jackson's
fifth in Jigga is now the highest paid wide receiver in the history of the NFL.
I think it was like 120, 130 million guaranteed, 42 million a year.
This is a point of reference, Justin Jefferson's at 35 million a year.
So that's 20% higher than Justin Jefferson for the great Jackson's fifth in Jigga, you
know, unbelievable accomplishment.
And obviously all those things, whatever that happens, my first thought is always, how does
that help Ohio State and the answer is, you know, considerably because you know, all
these guys want to get paid.
They want to develop.
They want to go on to NFL riches and, you know, it looks like, I mean, what's Jackson's
fifth in Jigga going to make in the NFL?
You're not $500 million dollars or something before he's gone.
Great.
That's what you want.
That's the eye on the prize as opposed to an extra 100,000 here, an extra 100,000 there
in LA, how many, you know, developed your culture over cash and great day for the black
guys with Jackson's fifth in Jigga, been a great calling card for Ohio State recruiting
in general.
Yep.
Reaching the agreement with Seattle on a four year, 168.6 million contract extension that
now makes it in the highest paid receiver in NFL history, like Nevada said, the deal
of averages, excuse me, 42.15 million per year and includes over 120 million guaranteed
both setting records for any wide receiver.
So yeah, listen, this is what we do.
We do this, man.
And so for those who thought that, you know, bright, hard line of leaving would just, because
there have been some hot takes, Nevada, of, oh man, you know, we're about to fall off.
Now, I don't, I ignore scum fans.
They always, you know, try to cast our doom.
They've been cast in our doom since, you know, Tressel was here, but even just some non-hater
fans, like, oh, well, it's over.
Not so fast, my friend.
Not so fast.
I've got this bright and hard line has, has had the power of the black hole behind him.
And remember, the ride receiver coach before him was a pretty good recruiter too.
I mean, we've been wide receiver.
We've been duking it out with LSU and other schools for wide receiver you for a long
time.
So don't think things are just going to stop because hard line is gone, especially when
you got stuff like this happening, which is a good transition.
And I will pull this up, Nevada, into the generational five star phenom that we are referring
to.
And who is that?
Nevada, you want to get into that?
That be a jet Harrison, which, first of all, jet Harrison is one of the great football
names of all time.
You know, I'm sorry about that.
It'd be like, if your name wasn't, it wasn't brand-in, but it was like, be hops, Moses
or something like that, or, you know, holy Moses, holy Moses, oh yeah, what I heard, I
mean, like, hey, mom and dad, you shouldn't name me a holy, that would be great.
But yeah, jet Harrison is an absolute fabulous name.
Obviously, the son of the great wide receiver, Marvin and Harrison, senior and the brother
of the great buckeye, Marvin and Harrison, Jr.
So, you know, the early word from Ohio State, I mean, this has been kind of a continuing
thing.
But the word from Ohio State is that they, you know, confidence is high that jet Harrison
is going to be a buckeye.
The word that we've gotten over the weekend from jet Harrison's camp is the way that
that's turning as well.
So, this is, you know, a very familiar name for Ohio State fans, but this is a player that's
come in probably much more, you know, heralded than brother Marvin, because I mean, Marvin
came in and, I mean, I'm not saying he wasn't regarded a good wide receiver, but it wasn't
like, oh, wow, like this guy is the next, you know, the next big thing.
Franky Cowell McCord was considered a higher recruit than Marvin Harrison was.
It was almost like, hey, this guy's almost like a package deal with his quarterback and
this and that.
The other thing like that, you know, it's funny how those things turn out.
But yeah, jet Harrison, the next great Harrison wide receiver, now a five star wide receiver
and definitely a guy that I could see Ohio State adding to their wide receiver hall
here, you know, coming up relatively shortly.
So definitely good news coming on the recording front.
For sure.
Let me go out and go back into these highlights.
But yes, jet Harrison is an incredible name.
That's just stupid, like stupid, like fire, like, that's a video game name.
You know, when you're like playing Madden or something, you making a creative player.
That's a creative player name.
And so I'm going to pull those highlights up, but you're right.
People forget.
And Harrison was like a four star, four star kid, good prospect.
But you know, is he overhyped because of his name?
I mean, you were getting stuff like that throw in with Kyle McCord or that.
But let me ask you, Nevada, because I know you watch jet and I'm going to pull him up now.
But I want your thoughts on the differences.
I know the differences, some of the differences I see and also see some similarities with
him with Marvin.
But there's some things that I feel like he is just low key, better at jet is over Marvin.
And so I wanted to get your thoughts on jet and then I'll jump in.
Well, I mean, to me, you know, I mean, the one knock that I would have on Marvin, if you
can possibly make a knock on a guy as great as Marvin Harrison was at Ohio State.
I mean, you know, sure, he hasn't gone to the NFL and completely, you know, torn it up.
But, you know, 12 or 14 TDs in two years, you know, 14 high yard, you know, 686 yards
this year despite only playing 12 games.
But I never felt like he was a big speed kind of guy, you know, like a guy that could kind
of blow the top off there.
And I just, you know, you know, jet just looks twitchy here and faster and more fluid than
Marvin did.
You know, Marvin was a great tactician, you know, great catch radius, really strong guy.
But I think Jets more explosive, you know, and I think he's a guy that could play in a number
of different positions.
And I think he could play in that slot that Jackson Smith and Jigba spot.
But I also think he's a type of guy that could take the top off on the defense.
So to me, just a little bit more, a more athletic Harrison, which that just sounds kind of crazy
saying that.
That's how I, that's how I see him and be interested to hear what your perspectives
are on Jet Harrison.
No, I agree.
I think he's clearly more explosive.
But he also high points the ball just as well as Marvin Harrison was because Marvin
Harrison in his high school film, he did a good job with 50, 50 balls, but also look
at the route.
Let me go back here to about right here.
Look at this route coming up, hold on to the next clip.
All right, here we go.
Check out this route right here at the bottom of the screen, boom.
And he gets held like stuff like that to me is just like, okay, yeah, because Marvin
Harrison was very fundamental, very solid.
He's bigger than jet.
Jet is only six one.
Let me see.
175, Marvin was like 16 and a half, 63, you know, in high school taller, but his brother
is high point in the ball just as well.
His route running looks great, but he does look twitchier and more explosive.
And so obviously with the smaller size, that might, you know, lead to that, but still,
I mean, he might end up having a higher ceiling than Marvin Harrison.
And clearly, he's a five star.
The rivals has him as the number one player, right?
So I mean, look at this, boom, I mean, he's just, he's running east and west to get north
with great speed.
He doesn't drop balls.
I mean, to get him to come here, because you know, a lot of times you'll see, not a lot
of times, but sometimes you'll see some legacies or brothers say, I'm going to, you know,
I'm going to do my own thing.
I mean, if jet does come here.
It kind of, to me, Nevada, you can tell what you think.
It kind of confirms, like, you know what?
Like my brother was treated very well at that school on and off the field.
It's a great program.
Step into the world of power, loyalty and luck.
I'm going to make him an offer he can't refuse with family, conoles, and spins mean everything.

Because, honestly, sometimes these family member brothers or whatever don't end up going
out to some scoos because they like, ma'am, my brother was not a good situation, low
key.
The public might not know it.
You know what I'm saying?
So anyway, I'm just saying, if we able to get jet here who might be even better, that
just shows how dope the program.
And that's without heart line, Nevada, your thoughts.
Well, yeah.
I think that would be a great endorsement of kind of for life after heart line that you
could land, you know, a receiver of this category.
But, you know, if you're jet Harrison, you'd have to, I mean, Marvin would have had to
have had a really bad experience, so I would say for you not to want to come here.
Right.
You know what I'm saying?
Right.
I mean, because all these, these guys are not stupid.
They're looking at and kind of going, okay, Jackson Smith and Jigba, Garrett Wilson,
Crystal Lobby, Marvin Harris, and Noah Brown.
I mean, just go on and on and on and on down the list.
You got the best one of literally the best one of the bunch in J.J. Smith is the next
one.
So I, I don't, I mean, you never like to say that anything's a mortal lock when it comes
to recruiting because there's a lot of elements in there.
But why on earth would you gamble with your future?
Because Cameroon has to, it's a sure thing, you know, barn injury, you're going to have
a great career.
You're going to go on to NFL riches.
And that's what these guys want to do.
You go anywhere else and it's, I'm not saying there's no chance, I mean, that would be ridiculous.
But it's less of a, you, there's a greater chance that it doesn't turn out the way that
you want it to be.
And, you know, Marvin Harrison senior was obviously a very cerebral guy, Hall of Famer.
You know, Mark, you know, Marvin Harrison, you know, Junior certainly has, has out surpassed
his high school recruiting ranking in terms of where he was draft, the NFL draft and
the kind of situation that he's put himself in there.
So I would, you know, it'd be shocking for Jeff to go short of, you know, there'd be
just one of the things where you just don't want to go on your brother's foot steps.
You just don't want to go the same place you're brother, but we're not hearing any of that.
And I think that's really the big story.
We're not hearing any of the, hey, you know, I just want to go blaze my own trail.
Hey, I don't really want to go to Ohio State.
Hey, Marvin did really have the best, you know, contrary to what you think.
He didn't really have a great time at Iowa.
We're hearing none of those things.
And that, again, you know, that gives me that much more confidence that, that Jet
Harrison's going to end up as a buck.
Yeah.
And so let me ask you, I was going to kind of go into a spill, but I want to tee it up
for you.
What is the common denominator, Nevada?
What is the, and I'm a touch on really quickly in a second, another receiver we got coming
in who could have left, who could have whatever, but, you know, they seem to be doing things
to, to double down on being a buck, I even more, I'll touch on that briefly.
What's the common denominator for a Jet Harrison and his family to want to stick and stay,
even though the all world, you know, why receiver coach is gone?
Well, I mean, to me, it's Ryan Day, you know, I'm saying to me, it's Ryan Day.
And, you know, the fact that Ryan Day, you know, if you think about what could screw up
a wide receiver and what could screw up a wide receiver's development.
That is, you know, don't play in a system that throws the ball or don't play in a system
that is really effective at throwing the ball and it gets the best quarterbacks.
And you know that Ryan Day is going to have the best quarterbacks.
And that's, you know, I think that's just kind of that extra security blanket that you
have there.
And, you know, as a wide receiver, that's why, you know, the, the quarterback position
in college football is overpowered because when you get the good quarterbacks, well, you
get all the other good players because then everybody else wants to come there and you
most certainly get the best wide receivers because the best wide receivers want to come
where they're going to be throwing the ball to.
And, you know, when you've got, you know, the list of quarterbacks that we've had in
the recent past and then a current roster where you've got Julian saying, you've got Tavine
St. Clair, you know, you're getting the ball.
It's going to get thrown to you.
It's going to get thrown to you often and Ryan Day is certainly the, he's the competent
nominator.
He's the one thing that's there that's not changed about Ohio State and another reason
why I think Jett Harrison ends up a butt guy.
I agree.
You said it.
I didn't even have to say that that was not rehearsed.
I knew he was going to say that because it's the truth.
And so, you know, he just, he knows how to, not only that, but the off the field stuff.
I've heard Marvin Harrison and interviews just praise Ryan Day because even Ryan Day
and interviews talking about his son, he wants him to go somewhere where he know he's going
to be taken care of on and off the field because that's what he does.
And so, I mean, all these relationships and things like that with Ryan Day at the helm,
just being a legit, like there's nobody, Nevada, I know your contact, your people, people,
I know, you know, that no Ryan Day, like really no Ryan Day, nobody be like, man, he's
really a deback behind the scenes.
Don't get it twisted.
Like, he sucks.
We hate him.
Nobody.
I mean, every now and then, there might be a disgruntled parent whose kid didn't play.
But like Ryan Day is that dude.
He's the common denominator for sure.
And so, that's just, I mean, as long as we have him, I think the players and parents know
regardless of who leaves.
We're going to replace them with somebody just as good if not better.
Which is powerful because a lot of schools, Nevada, would crumble lose in a heart line.
Like, do you think that real quick, and I'm going to pull up a quick clip of something?
But let me ask you, is that an overstatement to you that other schools, most other schools
would crumble losing a stud recruiter like Heartline?
No, I don't think that's, I mean, look Ohio State was concerned about it.
So, so concerned that they gave Heartline the offensive coordinator position, even though
he wasn't, you know, really ready or qualified to do it, but no, you know, but and again,
I want to say this very carefully.
That's why I'm enjoying every moment that Ryan Day is here because look, I'm sure, you
know, you can say, hey, the school's bigger than Ryan Day, and of course it is, you know,
you've gone from Woody Hayes, and then Hooper, and Jim Trustle, and Urban Meyer, you
can go on both some great coaches in Ohio State, but it's not guaranteed that the next
step is going to be as good, you know what I'm saying?
So like, I want to enjoy every moment that Ryan Day is here because it's just, it's surely,
you know, it's sure that your offensive scheme is going to be first right?
It's sure that you're going to be able to get great offensive and defensive coaches to
come work for you.
It's, it's sure that your academics are going to be in order, that you're the quality
of kids you're getting is going to be great, that your recruiting is going to be first
rate, that you're always kind of great quarterbacks, you're always going to have great
wives here.
You know, I mean, there's just a lot that comes along with Ryan Day, and will we survive
when he inevitably moves on or whatever that is, of course, but I don't want that to be
soon, because again, Ryan Day represents just a guarantee of greatness for Ohio State,
and that you can't really say that about a lot of coaches and called football.
Yep, preach, but you know, you'll still have people who want to fire, but it is what
it is.
That's just pretty much the world we live in, but I'm glad he's here too.
This is Jameer Brown.
I have on the screen and they're seven on seven, I'm bringing him up because he's another
kid.
He's in the 2027 class.
He's the number one receiver in Ohio, top 15 national player, five star, a stud, stud
stud, very fast.
I will call him a friend of the show.
He's been interviewed by Dev.
I lost count.
He's been on the show.
Great kid, a hard working kid, and an Ohio product.
And I mentioned this as far as double, I said earlier, doubling down.
He moved from a Uber Heights, Wayne, where Braxton Miller went closer to my neck of the woods
here in Columbus, in the Columbus area, to a high school called Big Warnett.
Now, like I said, I said this before, I don't, I forgive you were on the show, Nevada.
But you know, programs have like over the past 20 years or so being in the Columbus area,
there's some programs who have went down and something that have went up.
Big Warnett back, we scrimmaged him in basketball.
We scrimmaged them.
I can't, my junior year, senior year.
Anyway, we played at Big Warnett, and they wasn't like that.
Like their program was cool, they were solid, but they weren't like a powerhouse.
So I was surprised when I heard he moved to Big Warnett, but then some others told me
they've been really good in recent years, and you know, they got a good program and stuff
like that.
But anyway, the point is, Big Warnett is not that far from Columbus.
So he was interviewed and asked why he did that, and wanted to main things he said is so
he can be closer to a house state.
I know there were some who were concerned about visits he might take in heart line leaving.
But this kid, Nevada, doesn't seem to be wavering at all.
In fact, he's putting his money where his mouth is by moving closer to a program so he
can be closer to a house state.
And I mean, that's his words.
So I mean, this is another five star stud that could have left and demanded top dollar
with heart line leaving.
And so this is just more proof.
Now listen, obviously there's time between now and signing day.
But the evidence says he's not leaving, barring something crazy happening.
And so then you got jet in his family, who's a stud, and we're in, we're still in on,
you know, the milestones and the other guys.
So I'm saying I have to say I'm laying it all out for y'all.
It's not over till it's over, but the evidence right now shows that we're still pointing
in that trajectory.
We ain't stopping this while receiver, we're crew and train, Nevada.
Well, yeah, no, it's, you know, I think for a house state, it's, you know, you've got
such a great reputation and, you know, it's a great place for anybody to develop.
And I think Ohio State isn't, you know, you're not breaking the bank in LA, but they're
not taking a backseat.
You know, they've got their focus kids where they're putting out real money.
I mean, JD Smith is making real money that you're drilling things and they're going to
real money.
They'll pay guys for production and, you know, getting them in there and they'll develop
the heck out of them.
But for a kid like Jimmy Brown, I always look at, you know, how, how is he reacting with
the other recruits?
And he's the guy who's one of our lead recruiters.
He's the guy that's, I'm going to believe recruit, he's one of the guys, you know, lead recruiting
on Jet Harrison.
So it's like, you know, I, I look at that and kind of go, well, you know, that's the kind
of guy that I want as black guys and it gives you a pretty good indication of where they're,
where they're parts at, where they're heads at, I'm in the sole process.
But when they're out there trying to sell, we'll house the other people as well, to
me that really speaks volumes.
Yeah, man, I'm getting excited thinking about these future kids because I told you, I'm
a huge David Gabriel, Georgia's.

Hi, I'm Alicia and I'm Stacey and we make trashy divorces.
Everybody's favorite good podcast about bad relationships.
Any for something true crimey without the gore or the body count?
We've been shurning out funny, feisty, feminist episodes since 2019.
So if you're looking to put some scandalous stories told well into your ears this summer,
check out trashy divorces wherever you listen to podcasts, trust us.
We've covered someone you love or someone you love to hate.
Like fam, like he is a stud and barring something crazy happening.
He's going to be a book eye.
So imagine the speed on the outside with that type of NFL back and just the talent we got
coming in.
I guess what I'm saying, y'all, is I always preach this.
And so does Nevada, appreciate what you have.
Like we are recession proof as you can get.
We don't stop.
We lose.
I'm telling you, there's been fans from other fan bases like, man, a heartline going,
done.
For real?
You think so?
Yeah.
I don't think so.
And that's not going to heartline.
It's just, we're going to do whatever we need to do to stay on top.
You know what I'm saying?
A higher, you know, whatever.
And so just to appreciate it, I'm telling Nevada, like we, I thought about a Jay Z song
is called the Medley intro.
And before he starts rapping and he's like mocking people asking like, well, he ever fall
off and he comes in like, no.
And then he starts spitting.
He starts rapping his verse for those who know it's, it's classic.
You know what I'm talking about?
That's Ohio State.
It's like our haters is like, are they ever go fall off?
And we'd like, no.
And then we hit you with the bars.
I mean, that's just how it is.
And so appreciate what we got y'all in this football program because we are on a heck
of a run as far as consistency and just being elite.
And obviously, we all want more natties.
But three in my lifetime is more than a lot of programs can say Nevada.
Yeah, and, and, you know, you sent me into David Gabriel, George, like that's a guy.
I said this before, but I bears repeating, I know I say get excited about every recruit
and then I don't get sad about any way, but if we don't get him, I'm going to be sad.
Me too.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He's, he's really, really good.
He's really, really good.
If he goes somewhere else, will we survive?
Yes.
Well, football continue to be played most certainly, but we've led this recruitment for a long
time.
We've, you know, we've pulled out every stop on this one.
I feel it's like right where we need it to be.
And I really feel like we're getting him and when we do, I'm going to be, I'm excited
about every group, but I'm going to be really excited about that one because I agree
with you.
I agree with you.
I think that, that kid is a big time player.
And, you know, I, I feel like you need that, you know, you need that at the running back
position to really be, you know, like last year, if I had a criticism of our, of our team
last year, and, you know, it's, and again, I know I'm spoiled from having Trey Henderson
and Quintrun Jenkins year before, but I didn't feel like we were really explosive at the
running back spot last year and in Bo Jackson's good and in a thousand year.
And I know all those things, but was he, was he great and we expect kind of great at
Ohio State, you know, those guys that every time they touch the ball, you feel like they
could take it to the house, you know, and that's how I felt, Trey Henderson, every time
Trey Henderson touched the ball, I'm thinking he could house this, you know what I'm saying?
Like, and if he gets a little cruised, he's gone.
I didn't feel that way last year and I want to feel that way again about the Ohio State
running back room and I'm, frankly, I don't know if I'm going to feel that way about
the running back room this year because, you know, I think Bo Jackson, Bo will most certainly
be better, Isaiah West will be better.
Jacob sent isn't really that kind of a back, and maybe Legend Bay's that guy, you know,
maybe Legend Bay is that guy that can kind of make those things happen, but, but David
Gabriel George is most certainly that guy and I want to see him in Scarlet Gray.
You brought us some things that trigger some thoughts, I had a discussion with some buddies
on mine about this and we'll get to Super Chad's, we're going to have a harder stop tonight
in a little bit and we'll get to Super Chad's.
But Nevada, you brought us some things that we discussed.
So here's the deal.
I think one thing that contributed to the lack of explosion in the running back room is James
Peoples did not step up and do what we all hoped he would do, right?
Running back out of Texas, we saw really good speed on film and planning against good competition.
I mean, physically he looked apart, you know, early on, you know, in the spring, I mean,
he was doing well.
He was looking like he was going to be that guy and it just never came to pass.
He made some progression throughout the year, you know, he leaped over a guy and he started
to wake up a little bit and be solid, but he wasn't, we need it more than solid from
him.
James Peoples was supposed to be the guy and then, you know, the other guy's chip in.
So with that said, Bo Jackson, a true freshman had to be the guy and of course, CJ Donaldson
was a short yardage guy, whatever, past pro guy.
But Bo Jackson was our best back and he wasn't quite ready.
He was coming off the injury, you know, like all of that takes time to get your legs under
you.
Now, with that said, Nevada, here's the other thing me and my guys were discussing.
And I'm not saying he's equal to this person, but I saw similarities and what was lacking.
JK Dobbins, his freshman year, he had a great freshman year.
Remember, he was called jump cut Dobbins.
I mean, he was, but his freshman year, he was getting walked from behind at times, but
guess what?
He improved on that.
He got faster and he wasn't getting walked no more.
I mean, when he was gone, he was gone.
I'm pictured the Clemson game and that in that inside zone play, nobody was catching
him.
But his freshman year, he probably would have got walked maybe.
Same thing with Bo Jackson.
Bo Jackson to me is a really good back.
He has good vision.
He lanes forward.
He gets north very quick, but he got walked, okay?
He needs to get what Mickey.
I'm sure he is.
This injury's not helping, but I think just like JK Dobbins, he can improve on that Nevada
to where he is a breakaway back because he was almost there.
I mean, like, who was it against?
I forget the team, but it was a 60 yard play all the way down to like the three yard line.
And he showed, it was up the middle.
He squeezed through the hole and exploded down field.
I'm like, ooh, but he got walked.
So if he can do like JK and just get to that another level of speed and endurance and
ability physically to go all the way, I think he can be that guy because we see that he
has it.
But he was only a freshman and every freshman is not going to be trade Henderson with the
speed, but I have hopes for Bo Jackson to take it to another level of like where he can
be really, really, really good for isn't about any thoughts on that.
Well, you also remember that Bo was coming off a pretty significant injury from his senior
year, you know, and so you know, one year removed from that, you're not going to be as good
as you're going to be two years from it from that.
So I, to me, that's the big thing.
So would have loved to see him in the spring, see how bouncy and springy it is.
But again, you're nursing a little bit of an injury unrelated to the high school one
should be back, you know, full going the summer and then the fall.
But no, I think it's a great point.
I think he absolutely got, I mean, he was that way in high school and high school man,
he was crazy.
You know, he was just running away from guy.
So I absolutely believe he can do it.
I think I thought he was really close last year and if you pick some, even just a little
bit of speed, a little bit of explosiveness, you know, you know, a little bit back, you
know, running a little bit sure, you know, again, last year, there's no way he's running
with the same reckless abandon coming off an injury that he will be this year.
You know, his confidence is going to be in a completely different spot.
So no, I think it's a, it's a good thing that we certainly could see more out of them
and, and hopefully we will.
Yep.
And then one other thing before we move to Superchets, the wild card within Nevada's explanation
and criteria is Turbo Rodgers.
Turbo Rodgers has plenty of speed.
Is he ready?
Does he have the vision?
Can he protect the ball?
You know, is he able to be relied upon?
Because we haven't really seen Turbo play in a game.
We just know he was highly rated, snatched him from Alabama.
He's a twitchy fast, you know, fast guy.
But he has the ability to take it to the house.
But is he able to do that within the confines of being a running back?
And I'm saying, because it's not like you just handed the ball and it's just a straight
line with nobody to tackle you using them saying Nevada.
So what about Turbo real quick?
No, I look, I, I, you know, Turbo is one of those guys that it's hard to get too excited
about him because we just haven't been able to see him on the field.
But, you know, the players know where the players are and, you know, they say he's twitchy,
they say he's fast, you know, certainly he's high school film, you know, it's reflective
of that as well.
He's like, he's absolutely a wildcard and again, it is.
I mentioned before Legend Bay, another wildcard of his thing, you know, what kind of guy
like that do with the ball in his hands.
But yeah, certainly, you know, Turbo would be one that would, that would be a nice surprise
into 2026 if we get some out of Turbo Rogers.
Oh, man, it, I mean, to me, I feel like he needs to, I mean, like, listen, you didn't
play last year, you've been in it.
You're the most experienced Ohio State running back on the roster as far as that's available
right now.
Like, you know, because, you know, Isaiah and, um, and Bower or not, or not practicing.
So you got to step up and lead and do your thing and, and carve out some playing time.
I mean, come on, man, let's do it.
I want to see it.
All right, real quick, uh, Keith Gordon, happy birthday, said he's checking in live from
Daytona Beach.
Oh, that sounds nice.
Nevada, it was 85 here in Columbia yesterday.
Kids out riding their bikes, we're throwing the football around.
I might even have white, white, the little bit of sweat.
And then it was 30 this morning here in Columbia.
Oh, man.
That's crazy.
Bro, and it's supposed to be like 40s, 50s and then go back up, listen, this is just
Ohio weather.
This is what it is.
Bubble Wallace here from 2311 racing.
You know, it's slower than a pace car waiting at the car wash.

Hey, I'm Josh Speagle, host of the podcast, Luna Tick in the newsroom.

nervous breakdown, Luna Tick in the newsroom is for you.
It's news like you've never heard before.
The only newsroom with a panic button, you'll laugh, you'll cry and gasp and horror as
the show spirals completely out of control.
It's not just news, it's emotionally unstable.
Luna Tick in the newsroom, listen today, I've been here all my life.
I still, to me, it's not like I'm used to cold and snow, but it's the fluctuation.
I don't know if it's like that anywhere else other than the Midwest, where it just goes
85 to 30 to next day, ridiculous.
So I envy you, Keith Gordon, I hope you're having a great birthday and we appreciate
you.
Anything on that Nevada?
Yeah, happy birthday, man, enjoy Daytona Beach.
Nevada Buck is going, I'm going to be in Buffalo the rest of this week, starting tomorrow.
I'll be in Buffalo.
So what's the weather?
I guess it's going to be cold.
I haven't even checked the weather.
I'm assuming if Columbus is going to be cold, a bit of Buffalo is going to be cold too.
So yeah, Tuesday through Sunday for Nevada Buck in Buffalo, New York.
All right.
So here we go.
So tomorrow in Buffalo, New York, a high of 34 Wednesday, 48 is the high Thursday goes
up a little bit, a little rainy 57 Friday back down to 33 and then snow on Saturday, 34
degrees.
Now, I don't know when you banging out of there Friday or Saturday, but well, it's not Saturday.
It's it's the national championships for hockey for for high school and my daughter's
playing.
And so it depends on whether they win if they keep winning.
We'll be there.
If they lose, I could be out there earlier.
Hopefully we're still playing on Sunday.
That would be there would be good news.
Yep.
Now, it doesn't look like it's going to be like typical Buffalo crazy.
Like when you look on TV at the bills games, like, man, this is crazy.
It's not going to be something like that, but still going to be low chilly chilly up in Buffalo
this week.
But it's all good.
You're there for a great, great cause.
Still, he Matt, member for three months, shout out to Scoot family, the acts and master
B Moses and Helsinki Nova Scotia Buck.
That's right.
I'll post him.
Go ahead.
I'm Buffalo.
I'm Buffalo Buck now.
I'm Buffalo Buck.
Yeah.
To be fair, he didn't, he posted this before you announced you were going to Buffalo.
Yeah.
This is so.
That's right.
So you know, you know, he'll be on it.
He would have been on it.
You know what I'm saying?
He probably on it right now.
He probably sending one right now.
As we speak, our guys still be bad.
It's funny.
I was talking to my wife.
I was like, I posted my ex video.
And she's like, she's like, you tell him that I taught you how?
I was like, yes, did I told him that I quickly passed you by after a round or two?
Because she did.
She had, she went, she done an extra one before I did.
So I'm like, okay.
And she's like, well, you got to do this.
I'm up my art.
Cool.
Cool.
And then I start getting it.
But she's a little competitive as well.
We got a competitive house.
So, um, you know, when it comes to activities and sports and about it.
Well, yeah.
It's, it's, I want to even ask her your wife learned how to throw the axe before you did or whatever it is.
But I just, I just can't get over the fact that like, I mean, I know axon is a thing and stuff.
But like axon and drinking it.
Like, like, there's just got to be like so many accidents installed.
And people get hurt bowling.
If you can get her bowling, you can sure as I get her axe throwing, right?
Yeah.
I just, I'm sorry.
The play on words when you said accident, you know, just putting it together, you know, accident.
But I'm here all week.
No, but I mean, listen, I, I thought about that too.
Because the place we went is called Smash Park for you Columbus people.
It's been Westerville.
It's actually dope.
And if I don't, they got like, they got pickleball courts.
They've got shuffleboard.
You ever heard of the duck pin bowling?
You ever heard of that?
Actually, actually, when I was in, when I was in Halifax, I was, I went duck pin bowling.
That's where somebody had ever done it.
It was candle pin candle pin bowling or duck pin bowling.
Oh, I guess duck is different.
Candle pins like the thin pins and duck pins are those fatter pins.
But they both have small like balls.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.
Okay.
So it's similar.
It's similar.
They had an arcade.
A few other games and stuff like that.
So it was cool.
It was a nice little date night with the wife who was fun.
But I thought the same thing about it.
I was like, man, you got these acts throwing lanes.
You got the, you know, alcohol on tap.
Obviously, just, you know, people are goofy.
And you just, you know, so I don't know.
I don't know.
We were fine.
But I did think about that.
Like, man, who they got like some secret security behind the door,
wanting to jump out or something.
Good, good, good insurance.
And I tell you what, you got to do that that duck pin bowling ball.
I tell you, kills your arm.
Like your arm will be hanging down by the next thing of it.
Oh, man.
That's really everything.
That just wrecks retro.
It can be deceptive because they're heavier than they look.
Yeah, sure.
But yeah, it was fun, man.
It was good stuff.
All right.
Let me see what I'll tell you.
Still be back.
Thanks for wondering.
Okay.
A little bug.
See, he was, he was typing as soon as we were talking.
Typing.
I love it, man.
All right.
Geo did.
Thanks for the five.
With Jet Harrison wanting to be a buckeye with other elite white receiver targets favoring us.
It shows you how good a white receiver coach Cortez Hankins is.
Who knows to Ryan Day.
Not on Geo did.
We were told he was a bum and he didn't develop people and bleep bleep bleep bleep bleep bleep.
That's what we heard from people.
But anyway, no, Hankins again.
Ryan Day and his receiver room.
All was like, yeah, that's him.
We'll take him.
And so great hire.
And so far so good.
We keep getting more signs Nevada.
Again, it's early.
Yeah.
Things can change.
But I don't think they're going to change.
I think he was a good hire.
And we keep seeing evidence towards that Nevada.
Well, yeah.
And if we get Jet Harrison, if he commits this week.
Be Moses and I are going to go over Niagara Falls in a in a in a barrel.
Over there at the end out of Buffalo.
You know, it's like that in celebration of that thing.
We'll do the thing.
We'll film it.
I think you put on the YouTube channel and everything like that.
What do you think?
It will go viral.
I mean, that's it'll be our last video.
You know, but it'll be it'll be epic.
We'll go out with a bang, you know.
Do that.
If he was like, you was like, what happened to people?
I went over to the middle of the barrel with the battle buckle and the Niagara Falls.
I've never seen Niagara Falls.
Have you ever been in Niagara Falls before?
I haven't.
I haven't.
I haven't.
I've never seen it before.
So I'm looking forward to seeing it.
Yeah.
I've heard me and my wife entertain going.
You know, we're like, well, we're going to we're going to go this year type stuff.
And we just didn't end up going.
I don't know.
It's one of those things where I need something else to do.
Like, I'm not going there just for that.
I need something else.
So if we do go there.
Yeah.
You know, I'm saying, if we if we do go up, maybe we'll like go to Canada after that or like into Canada.
You know, I'm saying and or whatever, but I'm curious to see it, but not that much.
If I'm not doing something else.
But yes, I'm sure you're going to have pictures of video.
