Good morning, Buck Nudders. It is Thursday, June 29th, 2023. I am Dan Rubin. This is the Buck Nuts Morning 5 and Change.

They're back now appearing twice on YouTube, Twitter, or whatever other fancy platform we got rolling there.

The great Bill Krillik and Mark Porter are here. We were talking before the show. All they care about is Ohio State and the Buck Nuts site winning.

The monthly subscriber challenge for YouTube among all the podcasts and shows we do here at 24-7.

Like I said, if you have not subscribed to the YouTube podcast or our YouTube channel, please do so now.

It's coming down the stretch here. We will have an announcement of who the winner is. We are in tight, tight battle with the Michigan site, the Penn State site, and the Georgia site.

If you have not subscribed to the YouTube page, please get on board and help us win the race.

Gentlemen, Tad Hazy in the Midwest today. There's a little bit down here in the gym city thanks to the Canadian wildfire, which I really don't understand.

You guys look wonderful. Bill's debuting a new wide camera angle so you can get a sense of the throne, the Dean sits on every day.

Today we are going to start out with one of the best players in the class of 2024. That is Braden Baker offensive alignment from modern day out west.

He has visited all the best and he has a couple left, but he is very, very impressed with Ohio State and had a great visit here.

Recently visited Georgia. I know for a fact that Justin Fry is big on this one.

I think when we discussed Brandon at the foundation fundraiser, he said, we're not going to offer him unless we expect to get him.

Mark did a great review of Brandon. We're going to go over that and Bill is going to bring you up to speed on recruiting because it's been some recent information that we can chew on. Mark, the floor is yours.

Yeah, as the scouting Ohio guy, I'm supposed to have an affinity for Ohio guys, a bias for Ohio guys.

And when I turned on Brandon Baker, I was like, oh, we have put your great cast cast of Lyman in Ohio. It's been the best. I've been bragging about it, but there is another human being out there who would edge these guys out.

You had to rank him and that's we'll talk about that. That's what questions I always finished with when I do my break down is how does he rank in Ohio?

It's a heart breaker when someone nips out our Ohio guys and I have to be honest that nationally, we found a creature better, but the offensive Lyman class in Ohio this year has been the best I've seen in a while when you consider the Vonte and the Arms strong.

Mark, Nate, Will Satterwhite, there was Ben Robock, Luke Hamilton, Lewinetski, Twinson, and I may be forgetting one, but we have some power five Lyman here.

And you flip on the film of Brandon Baker and you just go, whoa, you know, like what a special athlete I'm going to start there.

You know, at offensive Lyman, we're always talking about athletes tight ends that look like power forwards that are great, but offensive tackles that move like power forwards are even better.
