Hey, hey, where you been, but got talk is about to begin, hey, hey, hey, come on in.

0:25.4

Welcome back to a Thursday book. I talk getting this one to you a little bit later in the day, because guess what?

0:30.8

Ball started. Doug Lamarie's Nathan Baird Stephen means we were all out at Ohio State's first practice of the

0:37.2

preseason on Thursday morning, watched about half an hour as it's stretching and then

0:43.5

five, five minute periods or four, five minute periods. So we got to see guys in pads. No, not in

0:49.0

pads, not in pads yet, right? We got to see guys doing stuff and then Ryan Day came in and talked to

0:54.1

us for about half an hour. So just so you know what this is, this is going to be what we saw and what
