Summary
Thank God it's Friday and thank goodness Jonah Booker is here for his usual end-of-the-work-week visit.
JBook joins Dave Biddle on today's show to discuss the following:
* What are thoughts on Ohio State's 2020 class thus far? Should OSU fans be concerned that there are seven commits in the class, but zero on the defensive side of the ball? Or is that to be expected due to having four new defensive coaches, and due to the heavy focus on landing offensive linemen?
* What has stood out about the Buckeyes' spring practices on the defensive side of the ball? Who are players that are making a move?
* Same deal for the offense: Who has stepped up the most? What do we make of the quarterback situation with Justin Fields and Matthew Baldwin?
* It is a big day of football coverage on Bucknuts as Ohio State's entire practice is open to the media this morning. Then afterward we will interview head coach Ryan Day and co-defensive coordinator Greg Mattison.
All of that and more is coming at you on the Friday extravaganza.
