Land-grant Holy Land: For Ohio State Buckeyes Fans

Throughout the year, the Land-Grant Podcast Network will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. On today's episode of "Land-Grant Uncut," we are bringing you unedited audio from Ohio State football coach Ryan Day's Monday, Aug. 14 press conference. He opens his statement by announcing that tight end Bennett Christian has been suspended for the entire 2023 season after testing positive for a banned substance. He will continue to practice with the team, but will be ineligible to play. While the head coach did indicate that he would like to have a starting quarterback named this week, he is not yet ready to make that decision. However, it does appear that Jimmy Simmons is close to being named the starter at left tackle with Josh Fryar on the right side. Day discusses that and more in the presser.

My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. In this episode, the guys finish up their realignment talk, hopefully, as we’re all ready to move on to the season and talk ball. Arizona, Arizona State, and Utah are in the Big 12, Arizona and ASU might be a wash but the Big 12 may have made a mistake letting Utah in, Jordan expects them to compete for the title immediately. There was a lot of parity in the Big 12 before adding Utah but if they continue trending upward they have a chance to dominate their new conf

Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of Hangout in the Holy Land, Josh and Chuck pour one out for the ‘real’ Big Ten conference. With realignment and expansion happening at break-neck speed, the guys understand why it had to happen but don’t love the fact that it did. The hosts then discuss questions and concerns arising from this most recent Big Ten expansion. Such as: Did Ohio State’s path to a (any) future championship become more difficult? How is it all going to work? And is Puerto Rico next? And finally, a look at Big Ten bottom feeders. These (football) teams are predicted and projected to finish at the back of the pack in 2023, but could any of them surprise? Spoiler alert: The answer is no.

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 today's episode, Matt is in conversation Brett Ciancia, the man behind one of the best preseason college football magazines available, Pick Six Previews. Brett once again predicts that the Buckeyes will be in the College Football Playoff, but he foresees their path to the postseason being very similar to 2022 with Michigan winning the conference, but both teams qualifying for the final four. They breakdown where OSU still trails TTUN, how uncertainty at quarterback and offensive line could impact the Buckeyes' chances this year, and what Luke Fickell's first season in Wisconsin could look like. The also talk about Georgia, Florida State, and the future of college football. Connect with Brett Cianci Twitter: @PickSixPreviews Purchase the Magazine: https://picksixpreviews.com Conn

My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. The PAC 12 has effectively been ended and the Big Ten and Big 12 are the beneficiaries, or the culprits depending on who you ask. Dante and Jordan discuss the impact of Oregon and Washington joining the Big Ten both in football and non-revenue generating sports. Is it naive to think the Big Ten will find a way to fix this scheduling issue as best as possible or will this only hurt non football sports? Plus, how did this happen and how much blame should the PAC 12 h

Throughout the year, the Land-Grant Podcast Network will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. On today's episode of "Land-Grant Uncut," we are bringing you unedited audio from Ohio State football's final press conference before the start of preseason camp earlier this week. On Wednesday, Aug. 2, three of Ohio State's quarterbacks took to the podium to discuss the competition to name a starter, how they all differ from each other, and what it is like in the QB room. Third-year Buckeye Kyle McCord and second-year QB Devin Brown are (almost certainly) the two players in contention to become OSU's starter, with Gebbia serving as a mentor having transferred from Oregon State, at least in part, in order to further his goals of becoming a football coach.

My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. In the first of four episodes previewing all 16 teams in the Big Ten, Dante, and Jordan start with the hot seat tier. The hot seat tier consists of four teams whose coaches are on the hot seat entering the season, will be on the hot seat at the end, or are first-year coaches whose programs will be pretty bad. There isn’t much hope left for these programs besides hoping the grass is greener on the other side of the coaching carousel.  In Part Two the guys finish up

Then, the guys discuss Ohio State’s roster for the 2023 season and beyond. With nine freshmen and sophomores on the team this season, there will be a squeeze on both the 2024 and 2025 recruiting classes, barring unforeseen roster turnover. How will Chris Holtmann and his staff manage the few openings that they have, knowing the 2025 class is one of the best Ohio has had in years? They spend some time discussing Jerry Easter — the No. 24 player in the 2025 class and a Toledo ki

Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of Hangout in the Holy Land, Josh welcomes in Matt Tamanini, LGHL’s co-managing editor. The guys kick things off by discussing the continuing fallout of the Pat Fitzgerald situation, but with a focus on the future of Northwestern football. Is the program now in a better place? With the heavy stuff out of the way, Josh and Matt try to convince each other that linebacker recruiting is not an issue in Columbus. The latter also tells folks that while he could care less about alternate jerseys, Ohio State did make a solid and fashionable choice with their 2023 version. And finally, it would not be a summer episode without at least some theme-week-related conversation. LGHL’s theme this week is Bold Predictions, which allowed Josh to let the hot takes fly. He give

We are back and there’s plenty of off-season news to discuss. We sadly open with some remarks about the loss of Carnell Tate’s mother and we send our condolences to all of her friends and family. In lighter news, we discuss Ohio State’s all-gray alternate uniforms that are planned for this year’s Michigan State matchup. We are traditionalists but we can still appreciate a good-looking alternate whenever those appear. Our consensus is that we like the gray ones but we also have thoughts on Ohio State’s traditional uniforms that would make them better (again). We looked ahead to Big Ten Media Days and discussed the things we’re eager to see when that event gets underway this week. What will Ryan Day have to say? Will things finally calm down for Northwestern? What will the new coaches have to say? Linebacker recruit Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa committed to Notre Dame over OSU. Is Ohio State doing enough on the defensive side of the ball when it comes to recruiting? Is there a defensive Brian Hartline out there somewh

My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan. In this episode of the new and improved I-80 Football Show, the guys open the show with updates on the situation at Northwestern. Since we last talked more former players have spoken out about the hazing and racism they’ve faced within the Northwestern football program and the athletic department. Northwestern now faces a lawsuit from former head coach Pat Fitzgerald who is trying to get the remainder of his salary and three different lawsuits from various players

On today’s episode of “Buck Off with Christopher Renne,” I’m joined by Jordan Williams to discuss the news in the college football world and preview the Pac-12 conference. To get the show started, we discuss the news updates in the Northwestern program. This conversation discusses the importance of why this is still in the news and why the importance of the litigation in these institutional scenarios lead to much deeper looks into the problem. After that, we turn our attention to the program you came here to listen about in the Ohio State Buckeyes. We discuss the new fan experience the Buckeyes are providing with selling seats to watch practice for $30. There were only 500 tickets available for each of the first two practices of camp, and how this is an experience you should not pass up if you have the opportunity. We then talk Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Marvin Harrison Jr and make our recruiting prediction for a Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa as he is set to make his decision this weekend. In the next part of the

On episode 80 of the “Bucketheads” podcast, Justin and Connor talked to Andrew Zoldan of The Basketball Tournament. Zoldan is the social media manager for “The Basketball Tournament” and “The Soccer Tournament,” as well as one of the co-hosts of the “Drive the Lane Podcast” with another friend of the pod Joey Lane. The boys talked to Zoldan about Carmen’s Crew return to TBT, what we should expect with the new crew, what it takes to be successful in TBT and what are some new teams we as fans of the event should be excited about. Plus, how awesome is the atmosphere if you go to the event? Before the interview, we provide a quick update on the 2024 class and rave about how good the 2025 class could

Come for the hot takes, stay for the warm ones. On this episode of Hangout in the Holy Land, Josh and Chuck circle back to Pat Fitzgerald and Northwestern, after news of his firing broke during their last episode. Having had time to sit and think, the hosts give their final two cents (for now) on the matter.  With the heavy stuff out of the way, Chuck then gets a (fake) chance to grill Marvin Harrison Jr., Cade Stover, and J.T. Tuimoloau with hypothetical questions for Big Ten Media Days. And finally, it would not be a summer episode without at least some theme-week-related conversation. LGHL’s theme this week is That Team up North, which should be pretty self-explanatory. Fueled by bitterness and animosity toward a heated rival, the guys reminisce about their most memorable OSU-TTUN battles. Plus, a few questions sent i

Since 1899 is an Ohio State Women’s Basketball podcast, covering the team that dates back all the way to the turn of the 19th century. Check back throughout the season for more interviews and coverage of the historic Big Ten women’s basketball program. Next on Since 1899; An OSU WBB podcast, Ohio State women's basketball forward Eboni Walker joins to talk about a unique experience she had this offseason: Jumping out of an airplane. In the interview, Walker talks about how of all people told about the jump, the person least surprised was her own mother. Also, the mixed reactions from Buckeyes coaches, teammates and the surprise response from head coach Kevin McGuff. The Buckeye who played two seasons with Arizona State, one with Syracuse and went through injuries, team scandal and three coaches on two teams, had a potentially stressful final semester of undergraduate studies. Fortunately, a mindset that Walker's had since she was a kid is stronger now than ever. Walker goes into detail about how it came to sky
