| 0:17.7 | Buckeye talk is about to begin. |
| 0:21.1 | Hey, hey, hey, come on, man. |
| 0:32.0 | Welcome back to Bucket Talk. |
| 0:33.3 | I am Stephen Meese. |
| 0:34.1 | That's Defon Crikesnik, and that is Andrew Gillis. |
| 0:36.0 | As we continue our preview of spring practice position group by position group. We have made it to Tim Walton's cornerbacks. |
| 0:43.8 | Jermaine Matthews takes over as the most experienced player in the room. Man, it's crazy. It was Denzel Burke and Davis and Abinosa. That's the starting cornerbacks here forever in a day. And now that's kind of over with. |
| 0:55.3 | Obviously, Denzel Burke left after the 2024 season and now Davis and Igmanosin. Probably a day two pick. At this point, sorry, Gillis. It's probably not going to happen at this point. Yeah. So I was kind of waiting on that combine buzz. And it wouldn't happen. Yeah. Typically you hear like a Daniel Jeremiah or something. |
| 1:13.5 | They're like, hey, guess who turns out? combine buzz and it would happen. Yeah, typically you hear like a Daniel Jeremiah or something. |
| 1:13.5 | They're like, hey, guess who turned some heads? And like, you see that a lot. And it's like, |
| 1:18.2 | well, the two dudes who turned some heads maybe went from like the third or fourth pick to the |
| 1:23.5 | second pick and then maybe like the eighth or ninth pick to like the fifth pick so there's |

Are you happy with the run overall? Sure. Hope the commanders trade back and take him. He gave us content, if nothing also. He did. He did. Three years worth of content. Dave was in Igbenoz and gave us. |
| 2:03.3 | Listen, listen. I... He gave us content, if nothing also. He did. He did. Three years worth of content. |
| 2:18.1 | Davis and Igbenoson gave us. Listen, listen. I will never. Like, there's another guy in the class I really like. His name is Ticario Davis. He was a Washington kid. He was hurt, I think, for the OSU game. He's like a 6-4 corner. and that's kind of my, |
| 2:20.4 | he's kind of my weakness in, in football. |
