Summary
Kerry Coombs is an excellent recruiter. But now that he is no longer calling the defense for Ohio State, how does that affect the Buckeyes' recruiting efforts, if at all? The Dean of Ohio State Football Recruiting, Bill Kurelic, joins Dave Biddle to answer that question, plus:
* What is the latest on 2022 4-star edge rusher Kenyatta Jackson?
* Which offensive linemen might the Buckeyes add to their 2022 class?
* Have we ever seen anything like the K'Vaughan Pope situation?
* What surprises the Dean most positively and negatively about the 2021 Buckeyes one-third of the way through the regular season?
* What are thoughts on the Buckeyes' quarterbacks?
All of that and more is coming your way on the Monday 5ish.

| 0:00.0 | Good morning, Bucknoters. Welcome into the Buck Nuts morning |
| 0:29.8 | five here on Monday, September 27, 2021. I am Dave Bittle. I am |
| 0:34.8 | very happy joined by the Dean of Ohio State Football Recruiting, Bill |
| 0:38.9 | Curlyk. A lot to get into today, Bill, both on the Recruiting front |
| 0:42.8 | and team wise, the actual 2021 Buck Nuts. I definitely want to start |
| 0:46.5 | with recruiting though. We have the Dean in the house with the |
| 0:49.5 | situation with Carrie Combs, basically being demoted from defensive |
| 0:52.9 | corner, even though he still has the title Matt Barnes taken over as |
| 0:56.0 | calling the defense. I mean, Carrie Combs is such a dynamite recruiter. |
| 0:59.5 | How do you think this might affect recruiting as far as defensive |
| 1:02.8 | backs and just defensive recruiting in general with Carrie Combs having a |
| 1:05.8 | lesser role now? Well, at this point, Dave, and I tend to think it'll |
| 1:10.7 | stay the same. I don't think it's had really an impact on Ohio State |
| 1:16.7 | recruiting. And part of the reason is that, you know, Carrie Combs |
| 1:19.9 | recruits primarily cornerbacks. And if you look at what Ohio State |
| 1:25.7 | has in their recruiting class right now, at corner, they're for the |
| 1:30.7 | most part, unless something were to change, they're for the most part |
| 1:34.3 | done. You know, they've got Terrence Brooks, who is solidly |
| 1:38.3 | committed. He could play, by the way, any place in the Ohio State |
| 1:42.7 | secondary. But number one, the thinking is cornerback. And he's a |
| 1:46.7 | great one, by the way. They've got Jair Brown, who I went to see play |
| 1:50.9 | on Friday night. And you know, he told me he's he's solid. You know, |
