00:00:30.760 --> 00:00:33.880
<v Speaker 1>Hello, everybody, Welcome to Judy Buckeye Weekly Podcast. I'm Tony

2
00:00:33.920 --> 00:00:40.520
<v Speaker 1>Gerdaman here as always with Tom or Tom, how's it going?

3
00:00:41.320 --> 00:00:44.679
<v Speaker 2>Tony? After being at practice this week and having several

4
00:00:44.679 --> 00:00:48.119
<v Speaker 2>people power pause me in person, I think we just

5
00:00:48.280 --> 00:00:50.799
<v Speaker 2>need to let everyone know. Number One, it will never

6
00:00:50.840 --> 00:00:52.280
<v Speaker 2>not be funded to me. I want to let you

7
00:00:52.359 --> 00:00:54.520
<v Speaker 2>know how much I appreciate it. Number Two, you got

8
00:00:54.640 --> 00:00:56.200
<v Speaker 2>to hold that pause a little bit longer. I get

9
00:00:56.200 --> 00:00:58.039
<v Speaker 2>the sense that people are listening to us that like

10
00:00:58.719 --> 00:01:01.240
<v Speaker 2>one point two five speed, one and a half speed.

11
00:01:01.920 --> 00:01:04.920
<v Speaker 2>You gotta hold the paws a little longer to make

12
00:01:04.920 --> 00:01:06.719
<v Speaker 2>it clear what you're doing, because every once in a

13
00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:10.280
<v Speaker 2>while it's like just it's a little too soon. So

14
00:01:10.879 --> 00:01:14.400
<v Speaker 2>just just something as we get into camp season. It

15
00:01:14.480 --> 00:01:16.879
<v Speaker 2>is preseason for everyone, Tony, and that's just something that

16
00:01:16.920 --> 00:01:19.120
<v Speaker 2>everyone can just, you know, continue to work on as

17
00:01:19.120 --> 00:01:21.200
<v Speaker 2>we get ready to kick off the football season.

18
00:01:21.719 --> 00:01:24.799
<v Speaker 1>It's just too bad that that's become a normal greeting

19
00:01:24.799 --> 00:01:26.879
<v Speaker 1>to you. I should have started something like a punch

20
00:01:26.879 --> 00:01:29.079
<v Speaker 1>in the gut or something like that. That way when

21
00:01:29.120 --> 00:01:32.400
<v Speaker 1>everybody sees it, Tom, you know, how's it going? And

22
00:01:32.439 --> 00:01:36.760
<v Speaker 1>that would be great for all and but no, foresight

23
00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:38.959
<v Speaker 1>involved in any of the show, as you people know.

24
00:01:39.719 --> 00:01:42.799
<v Speaker 1>But it was great all three days saying hi to people,

25
00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:45.439
<v Speaker 1>people coming up and saying, hey, always enjoy the show,

26
00:01:45.519 --> 00:01:48.599
<v Speaker 1>thanks for what you do. You're hero among men. Just

27
00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:51.159
<v Speaker 1>really I don't know if you got any of those time,

28
00:01:51.519 --> 00:01:56.159
<v Speaker 1>but it was great to have everybody so so honored.

29
00:01:56.519 --> 00:01:58.920
<v Speaker 1>I'd say to interact with us.

30
00:01:59.400 --> 00:02:01.519
<v Speaker 2>And if you do see Tony in person, you know,

31
00:02:01.599 --> 00:02:04.359
<v Speaker 2>obviously you can't powerpaulse him because that's his thing, but

32
00:02:04.439 --> 00:02:07.239
<v Speaker 2>you can say, hey, chief, what's going on? So that's

33
00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:10.280
<v Speaker 2>that's a traditional greeting if you see Tony in public.

34
00:02:12.159 --> 00:02:14.560
<v Speaker 1>So while we were at the first three days of practice,

35
00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:18.639
<v Speaker 1>we the fourth practice on Sunday was closed to the public,

36
00:02:18.680 --> 00:02:20.000
<v Speaker 1>but we do want to talk about some of the

37
00:02:20.039 --> 00:02:23.280
<v Speaker 1>things that we heard about going on at practice. Give

38
00:02:23.319 --> 00:02:27.400
<v Speaker 1>you three standouts from the day, and I've let's start

39
00:02:27.400 --> 00:02:30.960
<v Speaker 1>with let's start with a true freshman, which true freshman.

40
00:02:31.080 --> 00:02:34.240
<v Speaker 1>Let's start with Jay Timmins, who we have seen the

41
00:02:34.280 --> 00:02:37.280
<v Speaker 1>first three days working well at least the last two

42
00:02:37.439 --> 00:02:40.680
<v Speaker 1>on Friday and Saturday, working with the ones at Nickel

43
00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:45.280
<v Speaker 1>back there again from what we're told on Sunday, and

44
00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:48.680
<v Speaker 1>boy Tom and your experience of doing this. If a

45
00:02:48.719 --> 00:02:53.280
<v Speaker 1>true freshman is with the ones for the majority of say,

46
00:02:53.319 --> 00:02:57.639
<v Speaker 1>the first week of fall camp, that to me means

47
00:02:57.719 --> 00:02:59.840
<v Speaker 1>that you're going to be with the ones the majority

48
00:02:59.840 --> 00:03:02.879
<v Speaker 1>of season, because one, you've already made the jump. You've

49
00:03:02.919 --> 00:03:05.439
<v Speaker 1>you've made the move to the ones. Like, what is

50
00:03:05.479 --> 00:03:07.000
<v Speaker 1>the point in seeing, well, let's just see what this

51
00:03:07.039 --> 00:03:09.199
<v Speaker 1>freshman can do with the first team, Like this is

52
00:03:09.479 --> 00:03:11.039
<v Speaker 1>this is a real thing here.

53
00:03:11.560 --> 00:03:13.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it is a real thing for sure. If you

54
00:03:13.879 --> 00:03:16.199
<v Speaker 2>see a guy with the ones right at the beginning

55
00:03:16.240 --> 00:03:19.639
<v Speaker 2>of fall camp, generally they're going to default to the

56
00:03:19.719 --> 00:03:23.919
<v Speaker 2>older guy because you can always go the older guy,

57
00:03:24.039 --> 00:03:27.159
<v Speaker 2>and then the younger guy surpasses the older guy and

58
00:03:27.439 --> 00:03:30.639
<v Speaker 2>wins the job. For the younger guy or the youngest

59
00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:33.120
<v Speaker 2>guy in this case, to be the person who is

60
00:03:33.159 --> 00:03:37.319
<v Speaker 2>repping with the ones already. That is that's pretty telling

61
00:03:37.319 --> 00:03:41.120
<v Speaker 2>to me. And you know, as you said, Friday and Saturday, yes, Sunday.

62
00:03:41.400 --> 00:03:43.719
<v Speaker 2>You know, sometimes they'll do something and it's like, well,

63
00:03:43.719 --> 00:03:45.879
<v Speaker 2>it's opening the public and then once the doors are

64
00:03:45.879 --> 00:03:48.719
<v Speaker 2>closed then stuff will change. Does not sound like that's

65
00:03:48.759 --> 00:03:52.159
<v Speaker 2>what happened when the doors got closed on Sunday. So yeah,

66
00:03:52.159 --> 00:03:55.800
<v Speaker 2>that that to me is I'm not writing it down

67
00:03:55.879 --> 00:03:59.439
<v Speaker 2>in ink just yet, but you know, I'm pushing pretty

68
00:03:59.439 --> 00:04:01.520
<v Speaker 2>hard on the PA on my depth chart to write

69
00:04:01.599 --> 00:04:06.080
<v Speaker 2>Jay Timmins's name in as the starting nickel. Just is

70
00:04:06.520 --> 00:04:08.639
<v Speaker 2>one of those things where if you can do it

71
00:04:08.719 --> 00:04:12.039
<v Speaker 2>right now, you're only going to get better. The learning

72
00:04:12.039 --> 00:04:14.560
<v Speaker 2>curve is going to be much steeper for a true freshman,

73
00:04:14.599 --> 00:04:17.680
<v Speaker 2>where if it's your fourth or fifth year, the extra

74
00:04:17.879 --> 00:04:21.800
<v Speaker 2>ten practices, fifteen practices, it's not that much of your career.

75
00:04:21.800 --> 00:04:24.879
<v Speaker 2>It's like, you know, if you're three years old, a

76
00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:29.240
<v Speaker 2>year is a huge chunk of your life. If you

77
00:04:29.240 --> 00:04:31.600
<v Speaker 2>are sixty years old, a year is like a tiny

78
00:04:31.639 --> 00:04:34.079
<v Speaker 2>slice of your life. It's the same thing for college

79
00:04:34.120 --> 00:04:37.279
<v Speaker 2>football players. If you're a true freshman, this fall camp

80
00:04:37.680 --> 00:04:41.120
<v Speaker 2>is basically more than half of your on field experience

81
00:04:41.160 --> 00:04:42.959
<v Speaker 2>as a college player. If you're a fourth year player,

82
00:04:43.000 --> 00:04:45.480
<v Speaker 2>fifth year player, it's just you know, it's just like

83
00:04:45.600 --> 00:04:50.279
<v Speaker 2>one more slice of your college football career. So that

84
00:04:50.600 --> 00:04:52.959
<v Speaker 2>is a long way of getting around to the point

85
00:04:52.959 --> 00:04:55.360
<v Speaker 2>which I'm making, which is he's only going to get

86
00:04:55.399 --> 00:04:57.920
<v Speaker 2>better as fall camp goes along, because you're going to

87
00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:00.480
<v Speaker 2>start picking stuff up sooner. You're seeing a lot of

88
00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:03.720
<v Speaker 2>stuff from the first time you're watching film of yourself

89
00:05:03.759 --> 00:05:06.480
<v Speaker 2>for the first time against the Ones. He is only

90
00:05:06.519 --> 00:05:09.759
<v Speaker 2>going to get better. Keep in mind he's a true freshman.

91
00:05:09.959 --> 00:05:12.120
<v Speaker 2>There will be he will have freshman moments this fall.

92
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:14.079
<v Speaker 2>That is a thing that is going to happen. Just

93
00:05:14.120 --> 00:05:16.720
<v Speaker 2>prepare yourself. It is not going to be perfect, but

94
00:05:17.480 --> 00:05:20.560
<v Speaker 2>it sounds like it is almost certainly happening well.

95
00:05:20.600 --> 00:05:23.279
<v Speaker 1>And there may still also be the freshman wall in camp,

96
00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:25.560
<v Speaker 1>which will happen in the spring. For some guys, maybe

97
00:05:25.560 --> 00:05:27.319
<v Speaker 1>it happens in fall and you've got to get through it.

98
00:05:28.160 --> 00:05:31.560
<v Speaker 1>The I guess the real test would have been if

99
00:05:31.600 --> 00:05:33.839
<v Speaker 1>Texas was the season opener this year, is he out

100
00:05:33.879 --> 00:05:38.439
<v Speaker 1>there with the Ones? Is he starting getting that first

101
00:05:38.480 --> 00:05:40.439
<v Speaker 1>game under the belt against ball State. I think we'll

102
00:05:40.480 --> 00:05:43.680
<v Speaker 1>help everybody. I like that you said you're just pressing

103
00:05:43.720 --> 00:05:46.360
<v Speaker 1>firmly in pencil. But Tom, if you remove that page,

104
00:05:46.839 --> 00:05:49.000
<v Speaker 1>we can just like take a pencil over that and

105
00:05:49.040 --> 00:05:51.920
<v Speaker 1>see what you have written down. So just keep that

106
00:05:51.959 --> 00:05:54.759
<v Speaker 1>in mind. If you're ever like trying to hide something,

107
00:05:54.759 --> 00:05:56.639
<v Speaker 1>we can we can still see what you wrote there.

108
00:05:57.439 --> 00:06:01.240
<v Speaker 1>But just seeing him on Saturday on a couple of

109
00:06:01.319 --> 00:06:05.160
<v Speaker 1>nickel blitzes and like, yeah, sure, blitzing as a nickel.

110
00:06:05.240 --> 00:06:07.240
<v Speaker 1>If nobody's picking up, you're going to get the quarterback.

111
00:06:07.279 --> 00:06:13.279
<v Speaker 1>But he's he's around the ball, and he is. It's

112
00:06:13.319 --> 00:06:15.879
<v Speaker 1>just so I mean, that's his thing, right, is just

113
00:06:15.920 --> 00:06:20.720
<v Speaker 1>being around the ball. You know, a a a straight

114
00:06:20.800 --> 00:06:24.319
<v Speaker 1>football player. So like the idea that he's moved up

115
00:06:24.319 --> 00:06:26.959
<v Speaker 1>the chart, the depth chart through spring and fall camp.

116
00:06:27.000 --> 00:06:30.040
<v Speaker 1>It's like, well, you know, that's what guys like him do,

117
00:06:30.519 --> 00:06:32.639
<v Speaker 1>and now you just got to continue to perform and

118
00:06:32.959 --> 00:06:35.040
<v Speaker 1>we'll see because he's you know, if you're working with

119
00:06:35.079 --> 00:06:37.120
<v Speaker 1>the ones, you're working against the ones as well, so

120
00:06:38.360 --> 00:06:41.199
<v Speaker 1>ones and twos, and you're gonna sink or swim, and

121
00:06:41.600 --> 00:06:44.279
<v Speaker 1>they're giving him an opportunity to swim, and we'll see

122
00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:46.959
<v Speaker 1>what happens. But it's just very very interesting that he

123
00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:50.240
<v Speaker 1>has been elevated so quickly because it doesn't mean nothing.

124
00:06:50.319 --> 00:06:53.399
<v Speaker 1>It means something. So keep that in mind. The other

125
00:06:53.439 --> 00:06:55.160
<v Speaker 1>two fresh we want to talk about her. You know

126
00:06:55.360 --> 00:06:59.360
<v Speaker 1>I heard that legend by while overall there's some you know,

127
00:07:00.040 --> 00:07:03.160
<v Speaker 1>the running game wasn't necessarily outstanding on Sunday and we're

128
00:07:03.199 --> 00:07:05.199
<v Speaker 1>talking about a bunch of other things on the Buckeye

129
00:07:05.279 --> 00:07:08.720
<v Speaker 1>Insider's message board, you can go find the thread we're

130
00:07:08.720 --> 00:07:12.360
<v Speaker 1>talking about from Sunday practice, and also got a fall

131
00:07:12.399 --> 00:07:15.920
<v Speaker 1>camp thread that has many many pages deep now from

132
00:07:16.319 --> 00:07:19.439
<v Speaker 1>with practice reports there as well. But Legend Bay apparently

133
00:07:19.480 --> 00:07:22.240
<v Speaker 1>had a pretty nice run today and we saw him

134
00:07:22.240 --> 00:07:25.759
<v Speaker 1>doing some similar things on Saturday. His ability to spin

135
00:07:25.839 --> 00:07:28.240
<v Speaker 1>out of trouble and the thing that struck me about

136
00:07:28.319 --> 00:07:30.120
<v Speaker 1>him on Saturday, and it sounds like the same thing

137
00:07:30.199 --> 00:07:33.439
<v Speaker 1>was going on on Sunday. He just gets when when

138
00:07:33.480 --> 00:07:36.040
<v Speaker 1>tacklers are coming at him in one on one situations,

139
00:07:36.560 --> 00:07:40.319
<v Speaker 1>he just gets so low to the ground while staying

140
00:07:41.480 --> 00:07:45.000
<v Speaker 1>without being down, and guys just go right over top

141
00:07:45.040 --> 00:07:47.199
<v Speaker 1>of him and he still has this balance and then

142
00:07:47.199 --> 00:07:51.120
<v Speaker 1>he springs up and goes and just an interesting thing

143
00:07:51.160 --> 00:07:55.639
<v Speaker 1>where he for this running game that can be styled

144
00:07:55.959 --> 00:07:59.319
<v Speaker 1>if it does get stifled, there's always this threat that

145
00:08:00.319 --> 00:08:02.560
<v Speaker 1>boom there he goes, And it sounds like that's that's

146
00:08:02.600 --> 00:08:03.360
<v Speaker 1>what Sunday was.

147
00:08:04.160 --> 00:08:07.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. The word that was used to describe it to

148
00:08:07.240 --> 00:08:11.399
<v Speaker 2>me was shifty, which yeah, I mean, that's what he

149
00:08:11.439 --> 00:08:14.160
<v Speaker 2>looks like. And on Saturday when we were in there,

150
00:08:14.480 --> 00:08:16.399
<v Speaker 2>there was just it was like a swing pass out

151
00:08:16.439 --> 00:08:18.759
<v Speaker 2>to the flat and he caught it, and he was

152
00:08:18.800 --> 00:08:21.079
<v Speaker 2>going up against Jermaine Matthews was the one in coverage,

153
00:08:21.720 --> 00:08:24.439
<v Speaker 2>and Jermaine Matthews was like squared up to him, and

154
00:08:24.439 --> 00:08:26.680
<v Speaker 2>then just all of a sudden, like a little spin

155
00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:28.560
<v Speaker 2>and he ducked and he got real low and then

156
00:08:28.600 --> 00:08:31.720
<v Speaker 2>all of a sudden, boom, he's gone. And that is

157
00:08:31.759 --> 00:08:34.480
<v Speaker 2>something that that is not something that everyone can do.

158
00:08:34.559 --> 00:08:36.600
<v Speaker 2>I mean, if you're a football player at Ohio State,

159
00:08:37.039 --> 00:08:39.519
<v Speaker 2>you are one of the very, very very high level

160
00:08:39.519 --> 00:08:44.159
<v Speaker 2>athletes in the nation. But not even everyone on the

161
00:08:44.159 --> 00:08:46.080
<v Speaker 2>Ohio State team has been able to do that. And

162
00:08:46.120 --> 00:08:48.639
<v Speaker 2>that's something they've sort of been missing in some cases

163
00:08:49.039 --> 00:08:51.720
<v Speaker 2>with the running back room in the past. Now there

164
00:08:51.720 --> 00:08:54.039
<v Speaker 2>are a lot of moving pieces here with Legend Bay

165
00:08:54.159 --> 00:08:57.720
<v Speaker 2>and he's still a true freshman, and you've got all

166
00:08:57.759 --> 00:08:59.440
<v Speaker 2>sorts of other stuff you got to get handled on

167
00:08:59.519 --> 00:09:01.320
<v Speaker 2>and off the field to make sure you are in

168
00:09:01.360 --> 00:09:04.200
<v Speaker 2>a position to be out there and making these kind

169
00:09:04.200 --> 00:09:07.559
<v Speaker 2>of plays. But it sure seems like if he can

170
00:09:07.639 --> 00:09:10.679
<v Speaker 2>handle all the other stuff, all the less exciting stuff,

171
00:09:11.320 --> 00:09:14.559
<v Speaker 2>he has the exciting stuff covered there. And you know

172
00:09:15.000 --> 00:09:16.799
<v Speaker 2>it says, as you said, I think this is this

173
00:09:16.919 --> 00:09:18.519
<v Speaker 2>was it sounds like it was a good day for

174
00:09:18.559 --> 00:09:22.240
<v Speaker 2>the defense on the whole, but he maybe just brings

175
00:09:22.279 --> 00:09:25.360
<v Speaker 2>something to this offense that they can't get a lot

176
00:09:25.360 --> 00:09:28.840
<v Speaker 2>of other places. And I continue to think that he's

177
00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:31.919
<v Speaker 2>going to be someone who is going to play a

178
00:09:31.919 --> 00:09:34.000
<v Speaker 2>little a little more often than you would expect from

179
00:09:34.000 --> 00:09:34.759
<v Speaker 2>a true freshman.

180
00:09:35.639 --> 00:09:37.080
<v Speaker 1>The other thing that stuck out with me is just

181
00:09:37.159 --> 00:09:39.080
<v Speaker 1>how hard he was running the entire time. His legs

182
00:09:39.080 --> 00:09:43.600
<v Speaker 1>are always moving, just continually churning, and it kind of

183
00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:46.279
<v Speaker 1>reminded me of back back in the back, back back

184
00:09:46.360 --> 00:09:49.600
<v Speaker 1>day watching Roger Craig just always his high knees. I'm

185
00:09:49.600 --> 00:09:51.639
<v Speaker 1>not saying he's got high Roger Craig knees, but it's

186
00:09:51.639 --> 00:09:54.600
<v Speaker 1>just he's constantly moving and he's not sitting in one spot.

187
00:09:55.919 --> 00:10:00.279
<v Speaker 1>He's looking for his next angle or move and it's

188
00:10:00.279 --> 00:10:03.759
<v Speaker 1>just fun to watch. And you know, we'll get to

189
00:10:03.799 --> 00:10:06.480
<v Speaker 1>see uh, we'll get to continue hearing more about him

190
00:10:06.559 --> 00:10:08.720
<v Speaker 1>till we all get to see him in person. And

191
00:10:08.799 --> 00:10:12.960
<v Speaker 1>the season opener you mentioned the defense having a good day.

192
00:10:13.480 --> 00:10:16.600
<v Speaker 1>One of those guys having a good day. Bo Atkinson,

193
00:10:16.919 --> 00:10:19.879
<v Speaker 1>the fifth year senior from North Carolina transferred, was a

194
00:10:19.879 --> 00:10:24.759
<v Speaker 1>Buckeye last year. Of course, and came in with expectations

195
00:10:25.240 --> 00:10:26.879
<v Speaker 1>that he will tell you he did not meet. He

196
00:10:26.960 --> 00:10:30.200
<v Speaker 1>was not happy, But it sounds like and from what

197
00:10:30.240 --> 00:10:34.879
<v Speaker 1>we're told, based on Sunday, what we saw this first weekend,

198
00:10:35.320 --> 00:10:38.559
<v Speaker 1>I'm to the point now where I think while those

199
00:10:38.639 --> 00:10:44.840
<v Speaker 1>expectations were over expectations, which I would look, have I done.

200
00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:48.159
<v Speaker 1>Have we done some over expectations shows? Yes, we actually

201
00:10:48.159 --> 00:10:53.960
<v Speaker 1>did two of them. But the I don't know that

202
00:10:54.720 --> 00:10:57.320
<v Speaker 1>he was going to match the expectations I know he

203
00:10:57.440 --> 00:10:59.279
<v Speaker 1>was last year was tough. I don't know that he

204
00:10:59.279 --> 00:11:03.120
<v Speaker 1>can even match those expectations last year this year. But

205
00:11:03.480 --> 00:11:06.960
<v Speaker 1>I do think based on what we've seen, what we're hearing,

206
00:11:08.320 --> 00:11:10.440
<v Speaker 1>this is going to be the year that he wanted

207
00:11:10.440 --> 00:11:12.879
<v Speaker 1>to have, that he thought he could have last year.

208
00:11:12.919 --> 00:11:15.960
<v Speaker 1>But it was just a very eye opening experience for him.

209
00:11:16.840 --> 00:11:19.480
<v Speaker 1>This first year is a buckey, and now he is

210
00:11:19.679 --> 00:11:23.360
<v Speaker 1>much more prepared to become what people wanted him to become.

211
00:11:24.279 --> 00:11:27.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, And I think that's probably a combination of physical

212
00:11:27.360 --> 00:11:31.559
<v Speaker 2>development and growth, and he just he looks bigger this year,

213
00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:34.799
<v Speaker 2>but he also looks a little quicker, a little more flexible,

214
00:11:34.799 --> 00:11:38.679
<v Speaker 2>Like he jumped out on Saturday to me and was

215
00:11:38.799 --> 00:11:40.799
<v Speaker 2>you know, he's he's repping. He was repping with the

216
00:11:40.799 --> 00:11:43.720
<v Speaker 2>ones on Saturday, which was you know, that was not

217
00:11:43.759 --> 00:11:45.759
<v Speaker 2>necessarily the first name we were saying in terms of

218
00:11:45.759 --> 00:11:48.639
<v Speaker 2>who's going to line up across from Kenyata Jackson, and

219
00:11:48.879 --> 00:11:51.720
<v Speaker 2>he was very consistently there and was making the most

220
00:11:51.759 --> 00:11:54.320
<v Speaker 2>of his opportunities. And again sounds like that was happening

221
00:11:54.399 --> 00:11:59.639
<v Speaker 2>again on Sunday in the practice he is. You know this,

222
00:11:59.639 --> 00:12:03.080
<v Speaker 2>this would be a really big thing for Ohio State

223
00:12:03.120 --> 00:12:08.200
<v Speaker 2>if you have another veteran guy, big strong guy who

224
00:12:08.279 --> 00:12:10.440
<v Speaker 2>has sort of been there and seen there and seen

225
00:12:10.480 --> 00:12:13.919
<v Speaker 2>it and done that, and you're not necessarily having to

226
00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:16.639
<v Speaker 2>rely on well, you got to get forty snaps out

227
00:12:16.679 --> 00:12:18.559
<v Speaker 2>of Ion Grady, you got to get forty snaps out

228
00:12:18.559 --> 00:12:22.440
<v Speaker 2>of Episatonolite. You If those guys can be the third

229
00:12:22.480 --> 00:12:25.639
<v Speaker 2>and fourth guys there and you get twenty snaps out

230
00:12:25.679 --> 00:12:27.320
<v Speaker 2>of them and then if they're ready, great, by all

231
00:12:27.360 --> 00:12:29.799
<v Speaker 2>means play forty, but you don't need to rely on

232
00:12:29.879 --> 00:12:32.519
<v Speaker 2>them from right at the start of the season. That

233
00:12:32.559 --> 00:12:35.559
<v Speaker 2>would be really, really helpful for Ohio State. And you know,

234
00:12:35.639 --> 00:12:38.679
<v Speaker 2>it does feel like, as you said, he's not the

235
00:12:38.720 --> 00:12:41.639
<v Speaker 2>expectations coming into last season were probably a little out

236
00:12:41.639 --> 00:12:44.960
<v Speaker 2>of line with the production that he had at North

237
00:12:44.960 --> 00:12:47.279
<v Speaker 2>Carolina because a lot of his production was concentrated just

238
00:12:47.320 --> 00:12:49.759
<v Speaker 2>in a couple of games and it was not, you know,

239
00:12:49.879 --> 00:12:53.679
<v Speaker 2>consistently throughout the course of the season. If he can

240
00:12:53.759 --> 00:12:56.080
<v Speaker 2>be a consistent player for Ohio State this year, he

241
00:12:56.120 --> 00:12:57.879
<v Speaker 2>doesn't you know, he doesn't need to be Chase Young,

242
00:12:58.399 --> 00:13:01.679
<v Speaker 2>But if he can just be a consistent player and

243
00:13:01.720 --> 00:13:04.000
<v Speaker 2>get them you know, I don't know, six sacks something

244
00:13:04.080 --> 00:13:06.639
<v Speaker 2>like that this season off the edge and just be

245
00:13:07.039 --> 00:13:10.519
<v Speaker 2>a really good, consistent veteran presence, take some of the

246
00:13:10.559 --> 00:13:13.080
<v Speaker 2>pressure off some of the younger guys and let them

247
00:13:13.159 --> 00:13:16.120
<v Speaker 2>kind of continue to come along as they are. That

248
00:13:16.200 --> 00:13:18.679
<v Speaker 2>would be really really big for the defensive line.

249
00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:25.639
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and the depth that continues to build there, it

250
00:13:25.679 --> 00:13:27.679
<v Speaker 1>will be interesting to watch. So those are some of

251
00:13:27.720 --> 00:13:31.639
<v Speaker 1>the things that we're talking about. Even as as we're talking,

252
00:13:31.679 --> 00:13:34.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm just looking at the text coming in on some

253
00:13:34.279 --> 00:13:35.919
<v Speaker 1>of the stuff that we can throw up on the

254
00:13:36.559 --> 00:13:39.159
<v Speaker 1>message board there at Buckeye Insiders dot com. And as

255
00:13:39.279 --> 00:13:41.759
<v Speaker 1>Tom says, for the price of a lousy Chang Store

256
00:13:41.799 --> 00:13:44.120
<v Speaker 1>pizza a month, and you know, you eat more lousy

257
00:13:44.200 --> 00:13:46.679
<v Speaker 1>change store pizzas than just once a month, so you know,

258
00:13:47.320 --> 00:13:51.519
<v Speaker 1>but sign up, come over, say hi, see what we're

259
00:13:51.519 --> 00:13:55.919
<v Speaker 1>talking about, and much more coming as we're not going

260
00:13:56.000 --> 00:14:00.679
<v Speaker 1>to be back at inside a practice maybe the rest

261
00:14:00.679 --> 00:14:05.600
<v Speaker 1>of camp if if things go as expected. So that's

262
00:14:05.600 --> 00:14:07.519
<v Speaker 1>why it's always good to have boots on the ground

263
00:14:07.559 --> 00:14:09.279
<v Speaker 1>and you know, ears to the ground and all of

264
00:14:09.279 --> 00:14:12.559
<v Speaker 1>that stuff. You can find all that at Buckeye Insider stockdown.

265
00:14:12.639 --> 00:14:14.440
<v Speaker 1>So that will do it here. Thank you all for

266
00:14:14.480 --> 00:14:16.399
<v Speaker 1>titting in and we'll talk to you all.

267
00:14:32.799 --> 00:14:43.320
<v Speaker 2>This time. What else, nothing away? The lone tell me

268
00:14:44.399 --> 00:15:02.039

<v Speaker 2>can tell me that's the moors all right, we can

00:15:05.840 --> 00:15:07.919
<v Speaker 2>steal current. Leave tonight
