Summary

Ohio State's recruiting is "stupid"? Well, not stupid in the classic term, of course. In this case, we are talking about stupid good. Matt Baxendell joins Dave Biddle for today's show to talk about high four-star cornerback Jaylin Davies perhaps becoming the next member of the Buckeyes' No. 1-ranked 2021 recruiting class, right on the heels of OSU landing four-star safety Jantzen Dunn on Monday. Also on the docket: * What is the state of the linebacking corps for the Buckeyes in 2020? We do a deep dive on that. * What is Bax most interested to see in the first round of the NFL Draft on Thursday? (Yes, tomorrow! Whohoo!) * The local media will have teleconferences with several of Ohio State's assistant coaches later this morning. All of that and more is coming your way on the Wednesday 5ish.
