All right, welcome to another episode of Buckeye Talk. I'm your host, Stephen Meads, and I'm going

0:39.8

so low-dolo today. I'm actually going to steal Doug's idea a little bit here. I know he's been

0:44.6

doing the Rantz pods for the last couple of months here. I'm going to steal that idea and I'm going

0:48.7

to throw a recruiting twist on it. So we're going to do a recruiting Rantz pod. Just kind of get some

0:54.3

catching up going on with what's been going on in the world of recruiting for Ohio State. You know,

0:58.8

that's probably in these off-season months here. It's kind of started off here on Ohio State.

running back in the country for his unofficial visit, which resulted in him committing on Sunday,
