Summary

All-American offensive lineman Wyatt Davis announced Friday that he is opting out of Ohio State's season and beginning to prepare for the 2021 NFL Draft, the first Buckeye to officially declare he won't be part of whatever season the Big Ten might play this season. On this Friday edition of Buckeye Talk, Doug Lesmerises, Stephen Means and Nathan Baird discuss the decision by Davis and what might be next. Plus, they get into the statement Ryan Day released on Thursday pushing for football in October, and the eventual decision the Big Ten presidents will have to make about that.
