Land-grant Holy Land: For Ohio State Buckeyes Fans

Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Holy Land’s I-70 podcast. On this show we talk 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. The 2022 NFL Draft has ended marking another year that the “Big Two” ran laps around the rest of college football. Forty-eight Big Ten players got their names called and a multitude of others signed undrafted free agent deals and accepted invites to mini camps. The SEC continued to dominate with 65 total selections, including a record-breaking 15 from the National Champion Georgia Bulldogs. After the B1G’s 48, the next closest conference had 25 selections while “blue bloods” Clemson and Texas combined for two total players drafted. Penn State lead the Big Ten with eight players drafted followed by Ohio State with si

On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” Chris and Jordan Williams discuss Ohio State’s Spring Game, and the questions they still have. To start the show, they discuss their experiences at the game watching the Buckeyes for the first time in 2022. They then talk about the size of the stadium and how much different seeing everything happening live feels. After that, they get into what the Spring Game means for the Buckeyes as they head into next season. They also talk about Jim Knowle’s defense, starting with the defensive backfield and then talking about the depth in the secondary and on the defensive line. Then Chris and Jordan get into some discussion about the expectations for a linebacker group and pass rush that they don’t yet know a lot about. They also discuss Ryan Day’s offense and the answers we got on Saturday. They break down the talent in the backfield and how much is also present in the quarterback room. They next get into the Buckeyes figuring out the tight end room, why the rece

Land-Grant Holy Land’s newest podcast, ‘Bucketheads’ takes you on a journey across the college basketball landscape every episode. The only 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. This week we caught up on all of the happening of the Ohio State men’s basketball program — from the roster to coaching staff to future recruits. What will the lineup look like with several players who can “swing” between the 2, 3, and 4 positions, but few with experience at point guard? When will the coaching staff be finalized, and could we see a recent Buckeye hooper get added to the staff as part of the support staff? We then drafted our “all-time” Ohio State teams, but only went back to 2000 because we’re naïve millennials who weren’t around to watch the likes of Jerry Lucas and so on. Did we leave anyone out? Did we include someone who shouldn’t be there? C

My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. After a few weeks off, Dante and Jordan return to the podcast to talk the NFL Draft. The 2022 draft is less than a week away, airing Thursday through Saturday, and some Big Ten players are hoping to change their lives forever. Despite in-person draft attendance dwindling there are still four Big Ten players — Chris Olave, Garrett Wilson, George Karlaftis, and Aidan Hutchinson — attending the draft. Dante and Jordan discuss NFL Network’s Lance Zierlein’s Mock Draft 3.0. Does Aidan Hutchinson to the Lions make sense? Are the Jaguars making a mistake taking unproven Travon Walker and his high upside over Hutchinson? Wil

On “The Dotted Line”, Land-Grant Holy Land’s Matt Tamanini talks to recruiting experts, LGHL’s recruiting analysts, and prospects themselves to get a unique perspective on the players that will be a part of Ohio State’s future. On this episode, Matt Tamanini is joined by LGHL recruiting columnist Caleb Houser to break down the Sunday commitments of CB Dijon Johnson and WR Bryson Rodgers. Though both are technically outside the top 250 in the 247Sports Composite Rankings, that likely won't last long as their talent is pretty evident on film, and there's no reason not to trust the Ohio State coaches at this point. Caleb also breaks down what he saw, especially from the defense, during Saturday's spring game.

On LGHL’s Play Like a Girl podcast, Meredith Hein welcomes in friends from around the LGHL, Ohio State, and sporting worlds to talk everything from Ohio State sports to advocacy for women in sports and all the happenings in between. Don’t call it a comeback! This week, Tia and Meredith got to discuss four exciting comebacks from across the sports world, including Colin Kaepernick, Thad Matta and Tiger Woods, plus the bonus return of Frank Gore to the San Francisco 49ers — at least for a day.  They also wrapped the NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament, which gave a second tourney title to the incredible Dawn Staley AND a platform for women athletes like Paige Bueckers and Aaliyah Boston to do things that are bigger than sports. Maybe the NFL can start taking notes… However, you’ll find no coverage of the men’s final, since Meredith and Tia can’t stay up that late.  Contact Tia Johnston Twitter: @tiajohnston_ Contact Meredith Hein Twitter: @MeredithHein Learn more about your ad choices.

On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” with Jordan Williams out this week we get into some of the biggest stories coming out of Ohio State’ Spring Practice. This week during spring practice, Cade Stover moved back to tight end and we get into why this move will be beneficial. We take a look at why Stover potentially made this move and why this is not a problem of depth at the tight end position. We also discuss how this could mean the linebacker position is in a good place. The other spring storylines we discuss include the new “Jack” linebacker position, and the king of the jungle. We also get into the offensive line and how the group can actually be the biggest factor in the offensive success. After that, we discuss the new NIL Fund for Ohio State athletes and how this might impact the football program. We talk about the moral ambiguity of a charity dedicated to paying athletes and why this might be a little off putting to some. Then we get into the board members and how this can be benefi

The only 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. During this week’s episode, we catch up on all of the news that we’ve missed over the past two weeks. We start by giving a big picture look at Ohio State’s loss to Villanova in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Villanova was obviously the better, more well-coached team. But did the Buckeyes leave it all out there and give them their best punch? We think so. We then discuss Malaki Branham’s future in Columbus — will the pain of this year’s tournament loss impact his decision at all? With Branham climbing mock drafts before the NBA combine even starts, it’s looking less and less likely that we will see him in an Ohio State jersey again. We close by rambling
