Summary
NCAA, you don't have to put on a red light.
And they didn't. They greenlighted Justin Fields' appeal to be eligible immediately at Ohio State in 2019.
What should fans expect from the quarterback as a sophomore this fall?
Steve Helwagen joins Dave Biddle to discuss that, plus:
* What is our take on him being granted immediate eligibility? A lot of people outside of OSU’s program seem have a problem with it. If this happened at Penn State, would we be bashing it? Or is this simply the new normal?
* Which of Ryan Day’s new staff members that we got to meet last Wednesday impressed Helwagen the most?
* On the hardwood, Ohio State topped Indiana 55-52 in Bloomington on Sunday. It was a huge win for the Buckeyes, and they now sit at 6-6 in the Big Ten, and 16-7 overall. Where do they now sit as far as their NCAA Tournament chances? We close the show with that discussion.
All of that and more is coming at you on the Monday extravaganza.
