Join LGHL’s co-managing editor Gene Ross alongside his co-host Josh Dooley as they cover everything from football to basketball to recruiting and more! While the guys weren’t planning to hop on the podcast until it was time for the Georgia game preview, there was a lot to discuss in the interim. Ohio State lost its five-star QB commitment in 2024, but gained the No. 1 WR in the class as well since the last episode. Plus, with the topic of the transfer portal hot in the streets, Gene and Josh talk about the Buckeyes’ involvement, including who is coming and going and what other names to be on the lookout for this offseason.

Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show, we talk about all things Big Ten football and basketball. After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. Welcome back to another episode of the I-70 football podcast. In this episode, Jordan and Dante take a moment to reflect on Mike Leach’s passing and the legacy he left in college football. Leach was one of the founding fathers of the air raid offense that changed college football forever. He has a coaching tree that will rival anyone in the sport, spanning multiple levels of college football and the NFL. We’re sending thoughts and prayers to his family, friends, and players.  In their not so quick, quick hitters the guys explain their thoughts on NIL and if it is ruining college football. Jordan thinks fans are

Throughout the year, Land-Grant Holy Land will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. The Ohio State Buckeyes women’s basketball team looked like they had a good night considering the 82-57 scoreline, but it was closer than it appears. Head coach Kevin McGuff and the Buckeyes struggled in the first half, allowing a rare visitor lead against a smaller non-conference opponent. After the game, McGuff, forward Cotie McMahon and guard Madison Greene dissect that first half and what changed to propel Ohio State in the second. Up first is McGuff. He discusses the unique half court challenge created by UAlbany’s Princeton offense, who he calls “the most exciting 10 seconds in women’s basketball,” among other areas of the win. McMahon talks about what changed for her Friday, after a career high 24 points against the Great Danes. Also, looking at the defensive performance of Ohio State overall and how she feels now after taking a big fall la

On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I’m joined by Jordan Williams to discuss Ohio State’s biggest stories from the week and get into why Ohio State is not dead because their NIL Foundation. We start the show with a long discussion about what Keenan Bailey’s promotion means for the offensive coaching staff. This conversation gets into the offensive coordinator vacancy and the likely internal promotion. We also talk about how the coaching profession is not the easiest to navigate for anyone involved. Then we get into a talk about Ohio State’s NIL “issues” and why they are overblown. We talk about the teams who have shelled out money and why when Ohio State loses a recruit to Georgia – or similar programs – it might not be entirely because of money. This also leads to discussing how Ohio State is just operating differently. Next, we look at the recruiting momentum on the trail starting with Ohio State’s 2023 quarterback. Brian Hartline also landed another five star which might not be classif

On Wednesday, head coach Kevin McGuff, guard Rikki Harris and forward Cotie McMahon spoke with the media before their final home non-conference game and their trip to San Diego. Coach McGuff starts things off discussing where the Scarlet & Gray need to improve on defense, rebounding under different defensive looks and the difficulty of preparing for two basketball games in two days. Amongst other topics after two rest days for the Buckeyes. Harris and McMahon take on the media together, with McMahon discussing winning her first Big Ten Freshman of the Week award, what she's learned so far in her freshman season and makes no doubts on which team Ohio State wants to play in the second game of the San Diego Invitational.

Throughout the year, Land-Grant Holy Land will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. On today's episode, we have uncut press conference audio from the special Peach Bowl media availability from Tuesday, Dec. 13. First the president and CEP of the Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl Gary Stoken officially invites the Ohio State Buckeyes to participate in the game and after athletic director Gene Smith accepts the invitation (how wild would it have been if he had turned it down?), head coach Ryan Day answers questions about his team and the College Football Playoff semifinal matchup. Among the topics that Day discusses are the health of his team, why Dallan Hayden was not called up to do more against Michigan, how his team will work to contain UGA's tight ends, and more. Of note, this presser happened before TreVeyon Henderson announced that he had undergone season-ending surgery and will not be available for the game against Georgia. Theme musi

Throughout the year, Land-Grant Holy Land will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. The Ohio State Buckeyes women's basketball team played their first home Big Ten conference game of the season. On the schedule was the Michigan State Spartans, a team the Buckeyes beat three times in their 2021/22 conference regular season co-championship season. Following the Buckeyes' closest win of the season, a six-point win over Sparty, head coach Kevin McGuff, forward/guard Taylor Thierry and guard Taylor Mikesell stepped in front of the media to talk about the win. Coach McGuff discussed what he saw going poorly for the Buckeyes, and how having a close game earlier in the season can help the team in the long-run. Also, he provides an update on guard Jacy Sheldon, who missed the previous two games before taking to the bench again, this time in a home Big Ten game. Next up is Thierry. The forward/guard flex player hit a career high with 21 po

With a couple of weeks left before Ohio State takes on Georgia in the College Football Playoff, there is a lot of activity throughout college football, particularly when it comes to transfer portal news, recruiting, and (of course) awards season. This week’s discussion begins with a little OSU coaching news but then we quickly pivot into a discussion about Ohio State All-American selections, C.J. Stroud’s finish in the Heisman Trophy race, invitations to postseason all-star games, and the like. Marvin Harrison Jr. is getting some much deserved love on the postseason All-America lists even if he was a snub for two trophies — one he should have won and one for which he should have at least been in the conversation, according to one of our hosts. Meanwhile, there’s also some love for Ohio State’s offensive line but not as much as there probably should be for linebacker Tommy Eichenberg. After our conversation about the coaching staff and Buckeye honors, we dove into our walk through the other Big Ten bowl games.

After every week of action, we will get you caught up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players that you should be paying attention to in the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. The season is over and there is a lull between bowl games as teams get a week to prepare. The break is filled with awards as every conference and major media outlet announces their post-season awards. In this episode, Dante and Jordan discuss the various awards and All-American honors bestowed upon the best players in the Big Ten.  Before the awards conversation, the guys discuss the major news in the Big Ten including updates on the coaching carousel. New Wisconsin coach Luke Fickell will have to hit the transfer portal for his future quarterback as current Wisconsin quarterback Graham Mertz entered his name i

Throughout the season, Land-Grant Holy Land will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. Well, if you missed Tanner Holden’s last-second buzzer-beating three-pointer at the Schottenstein Center Thursday night, I apologize. After 39 minutes and 55 seconds of agonizing, back-and-forth battling between two physical Big Ten teams, it was one shot that mattered, and that shot was a blind heave from Holden that won the Buckeyes the game, 67-66. After the game, the man of the hour spoke with the media, as well as Zed Key who set a career-high with 22 points, and head coach Chris Holtmann. The Buckeyes blew an 11-point first-half lead and trailed with five seconds remaining as well, but were able to pull it out right at the horn. Holden spoke first, letting everyone know that he actually couldn’t see the basket when he shot the ball, nor could he see if it went in — he knew when the crowd let him know. Key said it was even crazier than his

On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I’m joined by Jordan Williams to discuss Ohio State’s biggest stories from the week and get into the the Buckeyes’ playoff opponent in the Georgia Bulldogs. We start the show with a long discussion about our initial thoughts surrounding Ohio State’s Peach Bowl matchup. In this conversation we get into some key stats for the Buckeyes and how they compare to Georgia. Then we discuss how the cultures of the programs will have just as much an impact as the gameplans starting with the margins. Then we get into a conversation about Ohio State offensive coordinator Kevin Wilson moving on from the program. We get into the opportunity this provides for coaches in house, but our real conversation dive into some outside options. This discussion leads to a talk about why sometimes the outside isn’t always bad. Next, we get into the Jaxon Smith-Njigba situations. This topic gets into the common theme of fans disregarding players being people. Then we talk about how

Throughout the year, Land-Grant Holy Land will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. The Ohio State women's basketball team played an early, 11:00 a.m. ET, basketball game on Thursday against the University of New Hampshire. In a crowd full of up to 4,000 elementary-aged kids celebrating good school attendance, the Buckeyes played a lethargic first half and record-tying second half in a 92-36 win over the Wildcats. After the game, after the hours of screaming subsided and kids returned to school, head coach Kevin McGuff and forwards Taylor Thierry and Cotie McMahon spoke about the win. Thierry discussed the play of her teammate McMahon, adjustments the players had to make at halftime and how the Buckeyes reacted to the release of Brittney Griner from Russian imprisonment. McMahon went into detail about what it means to play in front of kids, and how it can motivate them to play the game themselves. Also, her thoughts on Thierry's

Bucketheads’ is the only men’s basketball-focused podcast in the LGHL family of podcasts, co-hosts Connor Lemons and Justin Golba give the latest scoop on the Ohio State Buckeyes as well as all the other happenings in the college hoops world. ‘Bucketheads’ will be released every Thursday morning throughout the regular season. During this week’s episode, Connor and Justin take a broad look at the Big Ten and assess if it’s actually over-delivering based on the low expectations we had one month ago. Maryland and Purdue have surprised everyone, while teams like Indiana and Illinois have delivered as expected. Is the Big Ten the premier college basketball conference this season? They also dive into a mess of other topics, including Hunter Dickinson talking that talk only to lose both times he ran his mouth, the Ohio State women’s team eyeing the No. 1 spot in the AP Poll, and Kansas State’s Keyontae Johnson dominating in the Big 12 after two years away from basketball. They close with a brief preview of the Rutge

Throughout the year, Land-Grant Holy Land will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. On Monday, the Ohio State Buckeyes women's basketball team achieved their highest ranking in the AP Poll since Nov. 2010. Beginning the year at No. 14, the Buckeyes won their first eight games, including wins against the then No. 5 ranked Tennessee Volunteers and then No. 18 ranked Louisville Cardinals. Following the new position in the rankings, head coach Kevin McGuff and guards Rikki Harris and Madison Greene spoke with the media. Coach McGuff largely dismissed the rankings, since he hasn't been able to watch the other teams around the Buckeyes in the rankings, caring more about what their ranking will be at the end of the season. He also discusses what he's seen change in guard Madison Greene after becoming a bench player and next guard up starter for injured guard Jacy Sheldon. Also, McGuff discusses what he's seen so far around the Big Ten,

On Land-Grant Holy Land In Conversation, we talk to people in and around Ohio State athletics, and the sporting world at large, to bring you a different insight and perspective to the teams, athletes, and university that you love. On this episode of "Land-Grant Holy Land In Conversation," LGHL's Matt Tamanini and Josh Dooley -- one of the co-hosts from LGHL's flagship podcast "Hangout in the Holy Land" -- discuss what is next for Ryan Day at the Buckeyes at the offensive coordinator position. With Kevin Wilson being officially named as the new head coach at Tulsa, Day will have a big decision to make sooner rather than later. Will he turn over play calling to his new hire? Will he promote from within or find the best candidate on the open market? Will he find someone with a similar philosophy and pedigree, or will he look for a coach who brings something new to the offense? With the football early signing period coming up on Dec. 21, it might behoove Day to move quickly and find his next OC, but with College
