Summary

On this Friday Buckeye Talk, Doug Lesmerises and Nathan Baird are taking another bunch of Ohio State football questions from text subscribers. There are two main themes, however. First, (0:30) the discussion is on the 2024 Buckeyes and what might happen if the roster undergoes its assumed overhaul after 2023 with so many players expected to be heading to the NFL. Several questions and answers deal with that. Then (28:14) it's talking the future and present of Ohio State quarterbacks compared to other Big Ten teams. Finally (1:01:17) there's a question about the Ohio State defense, one about dreams, and one about running a 5K or 10K. Thanks for listening to Buckeye Talk from cleveland.com.
