The

The Good morning Bucknottors. Welcome to the Bucknuts Morning 5 here on Wednesday, April 6th, May 6th. We're not going back in time on the show. May 6th, 2026. I am Dave Biddle, very happy, joined by Patrick Murphy.

We're going to do a few things on the show today. We're eventually going to get into,

I'm going to get Patrick's thoughts on what he thinks is going to happen with Ian Moore. He just

did a story on Ian Moore for Bucknuts. I've predicted that Ian's going to be the starting left tackle,

and Saraveld's going to move to right guard. I'm curious to get Pat's take on that. Before we do that, we're going to give our grades for Ohio State's Transfer Portal Hall. We're going to give our grade for offense, defense, special teams, and we're going to give an overall grade. All right, my friend, let's start with offense. I mean, really, I mean, they obviously did a better job on defense because they had to do a better job on defense. They got, you know, but they did get seven guys on offense.

with Hunter Wellcing and Mason Williams. And they got a couple of receivers that are going to

play a lot. And Devin McEwen and Kyle Parker. Don't call him Kyle Foster, Pat.

And the one other than the kickoff specialist, they're bringing in from Notre Dame,

the one guy from the portal that they didn't have during spring was the offensive

alignment of Ashon, Washington from Dartmouth, originally from Springfield, Ohio.

He's more of a depth piece, as we all know.

All right.

So what is your grade for the offense, the portal hall for the offense and why?

Yeah, I'd say it's like a solid B. I think you hit on some things you needed to.

The wide receivers you mentioned. I think the jury is still out. Like there's a potential.

If those guys hit, then all of a sudden that grade could be a lot

higher but we just we haven't seen a ton right i mean devon mckeon was very successful but at a bit

of a lower level than what he'll face at ohio state Kyle Parker uh okay career at lSU but but doesn't

scream major success this wasn't like a huge addition.

They didn't go out and get one of the top wide receivers in the transfer portal, which we
