Hey, hey, where you been, but I talk is about to begin, hey, hey, hey, come on in.

Welcome back to the Tuesday and Buckeye Talk, Doug Lamarie, Statham Beard, Stephen Means.

It's not Buckeye football, it's yours, but it is recruiting talk because there's a dude coming.

And this guy deserves his own podcast.

And I will admit that I perhaps have been underestimating the significance of what is happening with J.T.

to Malau because Ohio State's 2021 recruiting class is already so good.

And we've already slotted a lot of those guys into how we think they might help the book guys this season as freshmen and certainly down the line.

We've already seen almost all the other important guys, not down to Jackson, but we saw a mech egg Buckeye and Marvin Harrison Jr. and Travegan Henderson and Jack Sawyer and others in Spring football.

And so there's this guy, Stephen, floating out there that I don't know like is he still potentially like a game changer for the program.

Not necessarily because of who he is alone, but because when you would add him to what is already here, there's like an exponential effect potentially of what would be happening here.

And the thing I've been wondering about is what we sort of were denied in 2018 with the abbreviated year three of Nick Bosa and year two of Chase Young.

And if instead you would kind of get like three years of J.T. to Malau and Jack Sawyer together and what that would mean.

And maybe everybody listened to this is like, no, Doug, we're not underestimating that this is like a huge five star.

This is a gigantic deal, but I am already thinking about, I mean, we just talked about on the Monday podcast.

I basically said, well, you know, in 2023 when Ohio State has the greatest team in college football history, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

And I don't include J.T. to Malau when I think about that.

But if you do include that, it's like, oh my goodness, because it's not really a cherry on top of the Sunday.

It's like, they do some of these things now. My children like the fancy milkshakes.

The fancy milkshakes are not really for consumption. They're mostly for Instagram posts.

I get it. I like to people enjoy what they enjoy. I'm not going to decide what is important for other people's lives.

So if you want to take a picture of a fancy milkshake and put it on your Instagram post, that's fine.

But the fancy milkshakes now, when they do the fancy milkshake, they was a milkshake.
