Summary

Former Ohio State All-American linebacker James Laurinaitis is returning to his alma mater as a graduate assistant coach. What does this mean for the Buckeyes? Will Laurinaitis be able to help with recruiting? What about on-field coaching? And what might his future hold at OSU? Will he be the Buckeyes' linebackers coach before long? Could he eventually be the defensive version of Brian Hartline for Ohio State, both as a coach and recruiter?

Switching gears, who will be the Buckeyes' three starting safeties this season? There is a lot of quality depth at the position, including Lathan Ransom, Syracuse transfer Ja'Had Carter, Sonny Styles, Kye Stokes, Cameron Martinez, Kourt Williams and others.

We don't talk much OSU basketball on the show, but we need to address the Chris Holtmann situation. It's year No. 6 of his regime and the Buckeyes have plummeted to 11-10 overall and 3-7 in Big Ten play, including 1-7 in their last eight games. However, due to Ohio State giving Holtmann a 3-year contract extension this past offseason -- which runs through the next five seasons -- OSU appears to be stuck with him for at least another season and perhaps more.

All of that and more is coming your way on the Monday 5ish as Dave Biddle flies solo.
