Summary

After a week of speculation, Al Washington is staying at Ohio State as linebackers coach -- and, we assume, some other change in title and duties. The Tennessee defensive coordinator job will not be the only one dangled in front of the Buckeyes' rising young defensive assistant in the coming years. But for 2021, would losing Washington have potentially punched a hole in Buckeyes' season that would have been difficult to repair? Doug, Nathan and Stephen also discuss the addition of analysts on offense and defense and the return of C.J. Barnett in a player development role.

Welcome back to your Saturday bucket talk from Cleveland.com, Doug Lamaries, Nathan

1:35.0

Barrett, Steven Means, we're talking coaching again. We were going to do a big pick a receiver.

1:41.0

No, no, no, no, no, I changed it. Pick a quarterback, a running back, and three receivers

1:47.0

from the two thousands at Ohio State, 20 years. And make your perfect offense. Those

1:55.9

five guys, I sent out a poll to the tech subscribers, but enough news came up. And we're

2:01.9

kind of I think they've figured out that could get pretty meaty, pretty fun because part

2:06.2

of it to me is not just the five best guys. Some of it's like pairing them together, right?

2:09.5

Well, I want to see this quarterback with this running back or I want to see these three

2:15.1

receivers together because I want this guy as the position receiver, this guy as the

2:18.8

deep threat, this guy as the slot, whatever. So I think that'll be a fun discussion. I ask

textures to just explain your five. So we're going to do that next week, maybe as the big

2:27.5

Wednesday pod. But right now we have coaching things to talk about. We're spending a lot of time

2:32.1

on the assistant coaching staff because we sort of evaluated everybody. You know, we did

2:36.2

it for Michigan. We graded the offensive of defensive hires. And then this out Washington

2:39.6

stuff came up, but out Washington is staying. We did a fake out Washington negotiation the

other day. As we record this Friday morning, we actually we don't have an announcement from
