Hey, hey, where you've been,

Buckeye talk is about to begin.

Hey, hey, hey is about to begin.

Hey, hey, hey, come on in.

Welcome back to Book I Talk.

I'm Stephen Means.

That's Stefan Krasnick, and that is Andrew Gillis.

We talked with the quarterbacks in Ryan Day and Ross B. York on Tuesday afternoon. I don't really want to get into the Ross B. York stuff here, Stefan. It's very simple. Ohio State's doing a bunch of stuff to improve the game day experience, and we'll see how that plays out. It's very, very early because we're playing Texas week. this week one. We don't, we 6143.3.0.315. I'm just not sure what the analytical take is there. It's more just like, cool, you're doing things. Good. Keep doing things. It's Ohio State acknowledging that they have a lot of noon games, and you have to try to do different things to improve the environment because it's not going to naturally be there like it is

for night games.

Yeah.

Whether it's towels, whether it's celebrities and alums ringing the bell before the game,

whether it's, you know, scarlet outs and blackouts and, you know, a helmet stripe, you know,

coordination theme, whatever you want to call it.

Like, they're doing different things.

And it's, it's a good mix of, like, the tradition of Ohio State game day experiences with, like,

new stuff.

I don't think any of it is, like, extraordinary.

Now, they are doing, like like different intros for brutus

buckeye if you were at the game at oregon last year you saw the different things that

oregon did with the duck and you know he came out on the motorcycle and he did a whole like

greatest showman thing and like Oregon does a lot of cool stuff with the duck ohio state's going to

try to do that now like if brutus buckeyeye like zip lines into the stadium or like parachutes into the stadium, that will be interesting and different. But outside of that, I don't think anything is going to really be like, oh, wow, this is completely different than anything I've ever seen in sports. Yeah. You don't think it would be popped in on a motorcycle that is pretty cool?
