This is IRISOllustrade Insider. I'm Tim Priester with Tim O'Malley of Iris

Illustrated, joined as usual by Pete Sampson of the Athletic. It's Tuesday, June 28th. We have a lot

to cover with the media, at least the local media, spending a lot of time with Marcus Freeman on Monday.

I believe O'Malley and I were the first ones up in the list of seven on Monday.

And we covered a lot of ground.

And Pete, you met with him a little bit later and probably had a little bit of different approach than we did.

I was six.

Yeah.

Okay.

Ours is a little bit more of a daily

need of a June need of information. And let's start with, well, Tim, let's start with,

with the Judarian Price injury, which of course, we've had a podcast since that was revealed.

I believe we knew that that was

happening or had happened at that point but that's uh I mean that's a significant loss coupled with

the with the talk about Logan digs not being ready for the start of the season which we anticipated

right and just Freeman confirming digs he's not going to rush him for Ohio. He's going to stop Diggs from trying to rush for Ohio State.

I think it makes sense.

He kept saying upper third, which means September.

He's hoping he plays in September the schedule.

And I thought the most revealing answer was when I said, he has to play at some point near or after upper third because you're going to be back down to three running backs by the time Diggs comes in.

Someone's going to get hurt of the running backs that they have in the three.

It's not having a fourth running back.
