Summary
We are happy to welcome in longtime Ohio State beat writer Doug Lesmerises to today's show. Doug and Dave Biddle will discuss the following:
* Does the NCAA have any teeth left? We're about to find out due to this Brendan Sorsby situation. How is there any gray area here when discussing someone who bet on his own team?
* Ranking the former Ohio State wide receivers who are currently in the NFL.
* Speaking of OSU WRs, presuming Brandon Inniss is second on the squad in receptions and yards this year, who will be third in both categories? Could it be a true freshman? Perhaps a senior who transferred in?
* How much longer does Doug think Ryan Day will be at Ohio State? (We hope it's a long time.)
That and much more is coming your way on the Wednesday 5ish.

| 1:06.0 | Great to be here. |
| 1:07.2 | So I was looking at the weather in Philadelphia. |
| 1:09.3 | You're a Philly native, correct? |
| 1:45.2 | That's just outside Philly, but that's what I grew up watching and rooting for. Yeah, yeah, close enough. So like your Phillies and my Reds play an afternoon game today, and it's raining here in Columbus, obviously, and has been for a while and probably will be all day. I was thinking, it's going to be raining in Philly, and I look at the weather forecast. No, it's going to be 93 degrees during the game. So that'll be interesting. You went to Northwestern. I did. And then I remember exactly when you got on the beat, I think. I've told you this before. I don't know if you remember. It was 2005. So I beat you by like a year being on the beat. |
