The culture is the culture.

The culture is the culture.

It's 4 to 6A to be, competitive excellence and the brotherhood.

The plan to win has never changed. So the culture here and the plan to win is always going to be here at a lot of state.

Welcome back to Florida 6th, A&B, your Ohio State podcast brought to you by The Athletic.

This is Bill Landish, joined, as always, by Ari Wasserman.

Second show this week because Ari, the Buckeyes started practice.

Football is here.

Football has returned.

I've watched 10 periods of the 2021 Ohio State Buckeyes in fall camp, and I know every damn thing about this team. What do you want to know? How many yards were you away from the

quarterbacks while they were throwing? Was it over 100? Yes. Yeah. Probably like 115. Yeah.

Could you even see who are so far away? I was talking, I was talking with Jeremy Birmingham, Berm, from Letterman Rowe at practice on Friday,

and we were standing next to each other trying to watch a little bit of seven-on-seven,

and there's, like, defensive linemen standing in front of us,

and then there's, like, nets behind them, and then tackling dummies,

and then, like, these big, like like shoots that they have to run underneath like practice proper pad level and I was like burn I'm starting to think that all these things blocking our view are strategically placed so that we can't see anything is like yep I think that's the case I always think about that is just like they don't let us in you know like if you want us to see it then we'll see it and if you don't then just what are we standing here for the thing that's I also think that when I would stand there, like, if you want us to see it, then we'll see it. And if you don't, then just, what are we standing here for? I also think that when I would stand there. Just like,

why, if you don't want us to see this stuff, why am I wasting my time here? And it's not a

complete waste of time, but the thing that everybody wants to see is the thing that they try to hide

from you. Which is hilarious because, like, it's going to be on national television in four weeks like i get it like whatever the NFL opens training camp to everybody and you know what they still go play the games

and it doesn't matter with the meteor rights so like college football has always been that way

and like super protective like they're you know splitting the atom and putting put nuclear bombs together

in the middle of field and we can't watch them do it they're not they're just playing football
