Let’s go welcome to sko ber happy Monday uh wild NFL free agency day uh is the 2025 recruiting class the best class in sko history going to break all that down it could be especially at the quarterback and wide receiver position we’re going to go through all of that as always we
Appreciate you guys thank you guys so much for being so generous with our pay forward campaign we’ve had a ton of new people set for that over the last uh three months so thank you so much for that uh if you guys are interested in a
Meetup we’re going to have a Meetup uh the day of the spring game uh 900 a.m. until 11:30 a.m. uh the Buffalo Wild Wings on Landon High Street is going to be absolutely crazy we’ve got about a thousand people that have already rsped so come through have a good time it’ll
Be a blast um but we’re going to get into all of that as always if you guys enjoy this content please leave us a like click subscribe also click that little alert Bell again this it’s a big show because you guys make it a big show
It’s about to be awesome and again this class is getting better and better every single day so we’re going to get into all that um bring in Nevada Nevada uh the 25 is almost it’s crazy at this point where you think that a class could over supersede a new class but the 25
Class is shaping up to be pretty crazy Daven Sinclair Jamie French uh do you think this could be the best class in school history well it’s funny you know I I was talking to helping technician this morning helping technician one of our great Insiders on our ask the Insiders board at Buckey scoop.com
And he was saying that he was kind of breaking it down for me where he’s like look I we’re in on just about every top kid right now and I started going through you know the top 33 you know kids in the country and uh I mean Ohio
State’s got a legitimate chance at you at half of them and and I would say they’re almost a prohibitive favor to to to land 10 to 12 so yeah I think 2025 could be shaping up to be a class for the ages it’s it’s it’s high at the top
It’s high in the middle um there’s really no lwh hanging fruit that Ohio State’s going after at this point in time it’s all four and five stars and um you know when you look at this class I I I I think on paper right now in terms of
Where Ohio State’s standing and when you consider Ohio State’s reputation the football world and say to yourself well is that going to get lower or higher over the next three four five six months and I’m just telling it’s only GNA it’s only going to get higher the Stars only
Going to get brighter um you know the spotlight is’s only going to shine brighter on Ohio State and uh I think it could be I think when it’s all said and done I thought last year’s class was going to end up good and when people were freaking out about last year’s
Class I said I think this will be one of the top rated star rank classes of all time in Ohio State people like oh oh Nevada that that’s crazy talk that’s no it’s a disaster it’s and and then what happened by the end of the day it was
One of the top star rated classes of all time in Ohio State I think this one’s going to be better I think 2025 will be even better and um I think when it’s all said and done I think it will be the highest ranked star average class in the
History of Ohio State football and one of the one of the one of the highest of all time in college football history I think it’s going to be that good and that important as a building block for a house they forward yeah and and a lot of these
Rankings reflect like Devin Sanchez deem Alford Tav Sinclair’s five stars cardo has been up to five stars on some services so there’s four five stars are takeen off and then you’ve got Blake Woodley is here massis Javon bogs Eli Lee but the guys that we think are going
To jump in the boat are like Jamie French who’s a five star um we’ve got a bunch of guys that are like right on the cusp of becoming Buckey so you don’t get credit for that when is this early in the in the process but um I think that
When you look at who is coming uh and who is going to be uh actual Buckey like it’s it’s scary I mean again you got guys that are uh you like Tav stclair is like the number one player in Ohio number two uh in the entire country at
Quarterback so you know I I’ve always talked to you guys about how you know the quarterback position is inordinately important for a football team and so when you have the number two guy in the entire country committed to Ohio State uh again it would have been easy to take
Ryan Montgomery Ryan Montgomery is a kid who’s obviously had a lot of clout since his uh freshman year Luke Montgomery is probably going to be one of you in in the factor to be a lineman this year for Ohio State it would have been easy to
Take him but Tav Clair is a guy who’s Rising faster than probably any player in the entire country um like I said number two uh in the entire country at quarterback number one in the state number six overall nationally and you know he’s a guy that I think has no
Ceiling he’s a guy that could be a franchise type top 15 type quarterback um so you know cardo is a guy that he’s a five-star Talent uh he doesn’t get the recognition that he deserves but he’s uh he’s really uh growing up quickly Devon CH Sanchez cornerback Superstar uh Doran
Moore is the guy who I think is GNA come with him it’s a a two five stars coming from that uh that Houston area in uh in Dall or excuse me in Texas um so I’m excited about it Nevada uh we got a lot of great feedback on doing the
Recruiting class kind of analyzations where could this rank if we end up with six or seven five St because that’s where we’re trending right now well yeah I mean like you said when you mentioned Jamie French and tarvis Alford Justin Hill Marian Dy London Merritt Maris Davis along with fem Delan
Dorian Brew Trey MCD I mean it’s just a it’s a ridiculous class and it just it goes across all aspects a lot of times people are like well it’s only wide receivers this is wide receivers and linebackers and Edge rushers and defensive linebackers and running backs and cornerbacks I mean it’s literally
You know touching every single aspect of the uh of the football team and um and I don’t think Ohio State’s done I don’t think I don’t think the list that we just gave you is a complete list I think Ohio state is going to be in on at least
Five or six other guys that are top 50 guys so um I I have never seen a team at Ohio State with more recruiting momentum than we have right now it’s absolutely amazing what’s going on it really speaks to Ryan day’s emphasis on getting First Rate Recruiters in there we’ve talked
About this but now you when you have three Ace Recruiters in Tim Walton Brian Hartline and James lordus um all kind of out there at the top of their game right now recruiting with an nil program that’s firing at all cylinders and a football team um that’s at worst top
Three in the country and certainly you know you know one of the Premier programs in the if not in my in my opinion it’s clearly the premier program in the country with the best young football coach in all in the country in a in a stability you know in a world of
Instability Ohio state is a beacon of stability for college football um I mean that’s just amazing I mean it’s absolutely Ely amazing and uh like I said I I was excited about the 2024 class and I when it came all said and done you know I love the class I love
The way that we filled needs um I love the way that it it kind of come together we kind of kept it together at the end but this 2025 class is ridiculous I mean it is absolutely ridiculous and I think the Dam’s going to start breaking shortly I think guys are realizing that
They need to kind of save their spot at the dinner table and and Ms ringing the dinner bell and all the kids are running from the field into get food at the table you don’t want to wait because you do you’re only going to get the scraps
So you better uh you better it’s like being at the Nevada bu household when I was growing up man you better eat eat early otherwise you’re going to be eating moon pies or something like that later on in the night so uh no I think
People are going to be running and um I think the dam is about to break with recruits uh and I think 2025 is going to be just an absolute epic year I agree I think it’s going be fantastic to see uh who lands where again we we got the
Quarterback Tav St Clair we’ve got the receivers um cardo is a festar tackle so you you kind of have cornerstones at every position it’s kind of like who wants to jump in the boat like Jamie French is a five star guy um you know it’ll be interesting to see how that
Works with Jayvon bogs I think Jon bogs is a guy um you know we talk about some of the guys we talked about the last few days like is is he sicking in the class when you see three or four five star guys show up in front of you I don’t
Know but it’ll be very exciting to see what happens um Nevada NFL free agency has happened there are some Buckeyes that uh got absolutely rich Jonah Jackson got a three-year $ 51 million deal to go to the Los Angeles Chargers um your thoughts on free agency because there’s
Been some Buck has that have had a a pretty nice uh little run um you know uh that that have switched squads and um there’s a lot of rumors out there as well but like Jonah getting that that big deal what does that mean for you in recruiting for Ohio
State well one it’s just you know hey Greg star to for the win one more time but uh yeah three years $51 million for any offensive lineman is is amazing for a for a buck guy like Jonah was just great but you know NFL free agency just
Proves again why the NFL’s the you know the best product in the world they do it right they keep themselves topical 247 um fre agency just just the ball right now and then you’re going to lead right into the draft and uh then before you know it we’re going to have you know
Fall football I kind of feel the same way about college football college football now with the transfer portal with spring football with Summer conditioning with fall Camp there’s just no off season anymore there’s no there’s no more um hey let’s kind of put the football you know things away for six
Months and then we’ll start thinking about it it’s like it’s football all the time and for me you know NFL free agency I I can’t get enough of it and I I love following the buckets I love F the little story of where Justin Fields is
Going to end up I think today was like you know every minute you turned around you thought you kind of found the answer to that you’re like well Fields is gonna land here and then all a sudden it’s like well no now they signed Gardner minshaw he’s gonna go down here oh no
They just signed Kirk cousins and um so I’m I think it’s it’s one of the great spectacles in all of sports I love following where the ex black guys go and um it’s uh it’s going to be it’s going to be fun to see and you a lot of great
Little stories to follow here over the next few days so I know I’ll be tuned to uh to watch Adam jef and see what’s the what the next bomb’s going to be dropping on Twitter but I know it’s going to be some exciting stuff yeah and
Like Germaine ler who lot of you guys probably have no idea who he is he is a tackle for the Giants he signed a two-year million deal with the Giants and uh this is really good because our boy who’s a big Buckey scoop fan the mford is now the incumbent to be the
Starting right tackle for the Oakland Raiders or excuse me the LA Raiders or the LV Raiders but Germaine and him were splitting time uh he had a nice year but again you know Germaine wasn’t like a full-time Dominator he a fifth round pick came for the Ravens uh played a
Couple games uh you he he started 31 and 34 with the Raiders over the last few years but wasn’t a great player I watched a lot of their games and and they kind of spelled him sometimes but you know Germaine got a two-year $14 million deal which is incredible
Obviously um and him leaving uh the Las Vegas Vaders means they is now the incumbent starting right tackle for uh their squad so very happy for the um I’ll just be full disclosure at lunch with the today it was like you haven’t lived until you’ve had uh a lunch with a
Guy who is living on an NFL team and they when they signed Christian Wilkins for uh like a fouryear you know $20 million deal or whatever there was very excited when they lost Josh Jacobs to the the the Green Bay Packers not quite as excited because Josh Jacobs is his
Guy so um it’s interesting living the dream with the guy who’s on an active V OFA roster through free agen CU again it doesn’t affect his paycheck but uh when you see guys that are his teammates or or new teammates like like Christian wkins is I mean it’s pretty cool and
Again like that’s the thing that’s a good uh it’s a good thing for you when they do these PDF files about you know this is our a player that’s developed here in Ohio State guy like the Jonah Jackson I mean I’d be putting that out tonight if I was Mark Banton like a
Three-year $ 51 million deal to the LA Chargers a Guard Pro Bowl guard um that is incredible that’s literally a million dollars a game now they get paid over 36 weeks now which again theer was educating me on the new CBA because back when I played it was 17 weeks and now
It’s 36 weeks they pay him into the off season but it was uh it was still pretty good so you know Jon is going to La um big time deal Jermaine Al lure who was literally the guy he split time with is going to the Giants for uh 14 million
Bucks uh and now that that benefit’s there in a big way so set it for there Nevada your thoughts on NFL free agency I text you when the Packers s Josh Jacobs you’re a big Packers guy uh we’re not going to talk too much about it with Ohio with the Ohio State football
Connection but you know it it does affect as much as people don’t want to agree with it like Ohio State football is is affected by uh NFL free agency because like when we sign these when our guys sign these big deals that’s the first thing you put on that that
Pamphlet that you send out on Twitter or Instagram hey our guys got you know a threeyear $51 million deal Jonah Jackson or whoever Mike Thomas um and I think it’s really important to uh to amplify that but uh your thoughts on NFL free agent free agency through one
Day well you know now how long’s there what what’s there there’s you how many League years has they been when’s they up for free agency his third year is coming up so it’ll be either next year or the following year yeah he’s I mean
Look it’s it’s a great time to be an NFL player I mean look to be any any you know any uh athlete in sports it’s a a good time to be it’s a good time to be a coach it’s a good time to be a a media
Personality it’s a good time to be an athlete for sure because you’re seeing these guys you know for theory he gotta be sitting out there going man if I can pull it together have one good solid season as a starter I I mean how much
Money is he look like 10 1215 million a year or whatever it’s going to be it’s going to be a lot of money and uh you know you’re you’re talking when you start getting into that range you’re talking about trying to you know creating generational wealth and yeah
That’s part of the Ohio State Story the part of the Ohio State story The these are business decisions for these kids that are coming and you know one of the ways that Ohio State’s you know combating other schools that have a you know a bigger bag with nil or you know a
Bigger more attractive benefit program is look that anything you get from nil anything you get from all this stuff is Small Potatoes compared to the generational wealth that you can you know create for yourself by getting to the NFL by getting to that second NFL contract by being an NFL starter and
Nobody’s going to develop you better nobody’s going to prepare you better uh nutritionally mentally physically um to be an NFL player than than we are at Ohio State and that’s why Brian hartline’s able to to land five star wide receivers on top of festar wide receivers is they see the types of
Contracts that are being offered out to these players and they want to be part of that that’s look it’s like any job you go to if you want to go to that job that can kind of you know or that school that can you know prepare you and and
Get you in the doors to be able to you know you create a lot of you personal satisfaction and and uh material wealth or whatever for yourself look n Ohio State football’s all about that and today nothing puts that more on display than the first day of NFL free agency
And so uh Ohio State Ohio State having a good day today I’m sure they’ll have a good day tomorrow and have a lot to talk about with uh with these players for this great 2025 class and I’m telling you like that is one of the most poignant points you’ve
Ever made on this podcast again we try to be very transparent about what matters to Ohio State and again obviously winning the Big 10 beating Michigan winning the national title all imperative for high success but like you know after that and winning the national title like the first day free agency is
A nice measuring point for Ohio city because again if I’m Justin fry and I’m going out to recruit an offensive guard like how can you not hind him a little pamphlet that says hey you know this kid came to Ohio State for one year Jonah Jackson left Detroit came to the LA uh
Um you know the LA Rams off the Chargers and got $ 51 million over three years so 17 million per to play guard not tackle um I don’t know how you don’t do that and and again some of these teams are spending like crazy um and some aren’t
And again like like that’s why it’s Miss defying that Austin Eckler can get 11 million over two years um and Jonah Jackson who I love to death is getting 51 million over three years but it shows the devaluation of the running back uh position it also shows why got like
Quinon junkins would come to Ohio state with Trey Henderson because again like you’re seeing these free agency deals and you’re seeing Christian Wilkins get a four-year like20 million deal and then you see uh you know six Barkley get like a threeyear like $36 million again those are all humongous numbers I’m not
Denigrating making $ 36 mlion again obviously generational wealth insane wealth but like Christian Watkins is a d tackle he’s making $80 million more than saquan with one more year attack out braal so you know it just shows you the uh the devaluation of running backs and that’s why like Trey Henderson and Quinn
Sea wanted to come to get together and and you know leave more TR on the tires and and try to get that second deal because running backs in the league aren’t getting these major deals like like every other position like like d tackles DNS uh offensive lineman it’s
Crazy but um Nevada uh in terms of like running out this class with Jamie fresh and some of these guys what are your thoughts on how you know this explosion of contracts in the NFL and these guys from Ohio they’re getting these huge deals how does that affect us SC going
Forward uh with the national recruiting I think it’s huge for us I think that there are guys are going to say well these Ohio State guys they they come here they get developed they get paid it’s worth coming to Ohio what is your thought on that because again I think
That this is a day that’s like it’s kind of like the Super Bowl Parade where he’s like hey you guys want get paid come to the come to Ohio State and watch our guys get a lot of money um but what’s your thought on
That yeah no it it like like I said for Ohio State you’re going to be in a situation where every single one of these free agent signings you know is a is a calling card for Ohio State it it’s all about kind of developing the Ohio State brand extending the Ohio State
Brand out there to high school kids and you know you look at a guy like we’ve talked about Urban Meyer how you know what a rock star he was you know when he you know whever he went to these schools well Ryan day now he’s like the guy
That’s handing out the golden tck he’s like Willie Wonka you know going out there to these schools and you know is he going to Grant you the golden ticket the the path to riches because it used to be a big deal in the NFL if a guy got
Paid five million or got you 10 or I remember when they you know momes they broke the bank from momes at 50 million a year and you’re like oh my goodness nobody will ever get paid you know that kind of money again and you know you know now that’s you Mahomes looks like
He was he was a bargain looks like they’re gonna have to renegotiate his deal up um because he’s so underpaid so I think for Ohio State right now it’s a good time to be a premier program it’s a great time to be Ohio State it’s a great
Time with you with Michigan kind of going down with Alabama going down um you know a lot of schools that are kind of in disarray right now or or lost their Premier head coach and you’re really looking around the college football landscape and going well who
Are the big dogs right now and it’s it’s like Ryan day at Ohio State and Kirby Smart down in Georgia and then you know a bunch of other guys you know and you know Lincoln Riley’s kind of just a guy Dan Lanning is just a guy and um you
Know a lot of good young coaches or good you know medium level coaches less experienced coaches but you know who are the Elder stat and who are the big dogs when it’s Ohio State and uh so yeah now today today’s just such a great day for
The program um you know one of my favorite days of the year and like I said I just look at this is like the official launching day to the 2025 class because every one of those kids wants to get a they they want the golden ticket
They want the ride and um you know now it’s on and it becomes really real when you see those numbers and you see how much those guys are getting paid it’s one thing for us to talk about it it’s another thing for those contracts to be
Offered so I think this is the the official opening of the 2025 recruiting season and uh business business is good yeah and I I agree with you I just think that like when you’re a young kid an offensive lineman if you’re Justin fry TR recruit top offensive guard top
Off The Tackle like we just had a guard signed for $117 million a year three for 51 Jonah Jackson to the LA uh Chargers excuse me Rams Shan M te and I’m just like how can you not recruit to that that’s literally a million dollars a
Game to play for uh the LA um Rams and I’m just you know um the these deals are going crazy I mean Michael oie oie weu who who played at Michigan and is a good player not a great player got a threeyear 57 million deal and it’s just
You know I would be capitalizing on this until you couldn’t even see straight but um even guys like uh it’s so funny even guys like um Trum Baker who you got CT by the Dolphins he’s gonna get a huge deal wherever he lands at um but then
Like again I I talk about the uh the Trey Henderson versus is um quinch junkins deal like Austin Eckler who a lot of you guys play Fantasy Football a lot of you guys are very aute to who Austin eer was Austin Eckler who was probably a top two or three pick in your
Fantasy draft this past year literally sent a two-year $1 million deal which is insane when you consider his production now he’s 28 so a lot of these guys you when they get older like Dereck Henry sell on the market a lot of these guys when you get to be a 28-year old running
Back you’re kind of like like a you’re like old hat but dude 5.5 million a year and then you see the Z linan growing for 20 million a year kind of wild um but I think that uh you know when you see the the wide receiver pipeline that Ohio
State’s developed you can see guys like you know uh olve Garrett Wilson like their second deals will be humongous uh just based on how productive they’ve been um and that’s only going to buoy the recruiting for H because again I I think that if you’re if you’re a program
Like Ohio State and you produce guys at any position it kind of it’s like the the high tide raises all boats like that’s what’s going to happen with Ohio State when they see these huge second deals for and again the biggest deal in NFL history will be CJ st’s second
Contract that’ll be a $500 million over six years or whatever it ends up being and then you’ve got you know Wilson olve um you’ve had a lot of really high High major dudes you know BOS has got Nick’s got his second deal already um all of that will help Ohio Rec because
Like look if you come here and you do right and you play right you’re gonna get paid and even Joe burough who we can’t claim because he’s on here for a few years and did a couple years to LSU like the money is insane and I think
That that I really I honestly got think that really helps Ohio’s this recruiting um and that’s why I think that this 25 class will probably be the highest rated class in school history um give the guys that we we’ve signed Nevada with what I’m talking about do you agree that even
Ancillary deals um that we sign from ancillary positions will affect the entire class as a whole yeah well it’s interesting yeah I I think that the Eckler thing you’re talking about is so fascinating to me because you know as a Packer fan I was watching Aon Jones and I was thinking
When they signed Jacobs that they were gonna have the onew duo Jacobs and and Jones and I think you know ir’s asking for 12 million a year or 10 million a year or something but when you see Eckler getting paid five and a half million a year as an absolutely Premier
Running back in the league you know it’s um it’s funny how certain positions are valued so highly um you know defensive lineman defensive ends um you know quarterbacks clearly you know even the safety position Xavier McKenna got I think four years 58 million or 68 million some ridiculous number like that
But then running backs you know you can’t be you know so light but that’s what that’s what made the uh the Jonah Jackson thing so interesting to me because you know 17 million a year for an offensive lineman you know I I’m not as familiar with offensive linan
Salaries is probably I’m sure you know him inside and out but where does that rate him on like NFL offensive lineman I that’s that’s got to be pretty far up there right that’s a that’s a really that’s a sub substantial deal I mean I mean for an interior guy that’s
Humongous deal I mean again he’s not a tackle and again like Trent Williams makes like 309 a year as a as a tackle but like when you playing guard like Landon Dickerson who’s probably the best guard in the NFL right now got four for 84 which again monster number like almost you know
That’s you know um whatever it is it’s a lot of money um but yeah for the interior guy has spend 17 million a year it’s crazy and again this is why I’m going I’m going back to uh where we’re at I’m gonna I’m GNA open this up real
Quick so Brian Burns who is a very good player got $150 million today uh 87 million guaranteed um and and and the Panthers gave up a two and a five to trade or they they received that so the Giants paid a ton to get this guy and
Paid a fortune to sign this guy so again like you know this is big money and again it’s funny the deal run there Jermain Lama lore this directly affects our scoop boy the mford who is best friends with Germaine and Germaine is leaving the Las Vegas Raiders to go to
Uh the Giants two for 14 and like theer literally rotated with this guy for the entire season last year so a guy you know theer who a lot of people not huge fans of whatever you want to say about Fair two for 14 um they have the same agent David M
Who’s the the premier agent in all of the NFL right now um that’s Justin fields’s agent that’s CJ st’s agent that’ll be every quarterback that ever comes out of Ohio State that’ll be his agent so again it’s uh like like I tell people I was like look this is not a
Game and this is why when I talk to recruits I’m like look you know do you want to be developed and you want to become an NFL you know like star or do you want to go somewhere else where you might play a little earlier might get a
Little bit more nil money um um it just doesn’t make sense because if you come to Ohio State like theer theer is now the starting right tackle for the the Las Vegas Raiders as far as I concern like I mean him and Germaine rotated every game and I told there I’m like
Look I watch every game that you’re playing in um because I usually take Devonte Adams or Josh Jacobs in my fantasy draft so I can watch you guys for every game and theer was just as good as Germaine and theer has a chance to make serious cash now that Germaine’s
Got and he’s going to be a starter for a full game and like they is ready for it he’s ready to grind and I think it’s going to be fantastic for him uh we got a couple super chats we’re going to go through these right quick Ben G thanks
For pick scop Ultra member thank you for the five is heartline looking for varied toolkits in the wide receiver room uh seems like more French and box ex out different things coincidence or by Design Nevada I’ll let you answer that first well I I think he’s just looking
For best athletes available right now I just think he’s looking for the the highest just the best guys he’s gonna I don’t think he’s really doing it by position I think he’s just trying to go out there get the best guys possible at every position and kind of let him
Figure it out because frankly the now and and I’m gonna say this and this may be heretical and people may go oh no Nevada this is you know to me I think the position stuff is kind of overdone a little bit you know like the whole XYZ
Thing it’s kind of like if you it’s kind of like tackle playing guards on the offensive line like if you have three great wide receivers but they’re classic xes or what like they can play the y or they can play just put them out in the
Field and just kind of go out there and and beat guys so I’m not as hung up on on that I just think you want you you want guys that can run fast and that can catch the ball um and I think if you do that you can find positions that kind of
Fit him so that’s why I don’t think it’s as important I don’t think that Ohio State recruits that way and um I certainly don’t look at it that way I I just I want guys that can get it done and I figure we’ll find a position for
Him um some or what no no matter what we call it yeah I think you can’t make it too you know uh tough or whatever I think if you’re if you have three guys that can ball if they’re all the same guy that’s fine if you have it’d be like
If I said hey Nevada do you want three Calvin Johnson’s to play wide you be like yep we’ll figure it out if they’re all 6’6 and they can run a 43 and jump out of the gym if they’re not like you know a contemporary slot receiver you’re
Good with it you’ll make it work and figure out how to do it the best way you can um but I I don’t know if they’ll all be in the class by the end of the deal but I don’t think that when you’re a wide receiver SC you recruit just guys
That are okay this guy’s a slot guy this guy is a x this guy is a z i mean I think that you just want to get the three best guys and Slot them in where you can slot them in at Quinn Tucky thank you for the the five is tyum
Biggins going to show up for your party to love you Chris Drew Chris you better show up bro I give you a hat you got show up and wear it uh Chris is obviously a part of the Z show I do not know if this is real or not but if it is
You better show to my party my dog uh Donald and Karen rosbeck uh thank you for the five Burke carton could make that kind of money in the NFL Nevada R Io if I made the kind of money in the NFL we would have a major sound engineer
In our our s be on point uh Nevada your thoughts on that and we’ probably also own a couple of spots uh out west are your thoughts well you know um I think you know Burke carton really with the NFL kind of money I think Burke should have
Made more money there in the NFL it’s funny I saw Kirk the story I have I have a buddy of mine named Eric lechner who was a firstr draft NBA player a seven-footer out of Wyoming played in the NBA for a lot of years played you know kind of a journeyman guy and
Bounced around but missed the big money in the NBA by like 12 months like was was there was just on the on the end you know so he he he played when when uh kind of backup centers made $750,000 a year or $800,000 a year which
Is a ton of money but then in like 12 months after that it went to like 10 or 12 million a year so he kind of missed it so it’s kind of same thing with Brook carton Brook carton should be making $17 million a year instead we get to enjoy
Him every day here on the uh on the podcast for 17 bucks a year for 17 bucks a year I mean if you were making 17 million NFL like Kirk would be literally blowing his nose with $100 bills right now and uh and not and not returning my
Phone calls but instead we get them so like I always talk about look for the blessing that’s the blessing the as we get to spend time with bur Carton and otherwise all his genius would have been uh would have been lost to to you know posterity

Then when I got when I got when I got tired Nevada Buck carried me that’s why that’s right AKA you you laid on the sidewalk and people gave you a dollar bill they thought they thought you a you’re a homeless bum oh man it’s just tired from drinking all that ice blendit
They’re like they’re like how’s this homeless buom got an $8 coffee from the Manhattan Beach like coffee bead like he must not be that Homeless if he’s got $8 coffee but I’m just saying um yeah the gear is going to be sick um we got a lot
Of uh it’s going to be a blast again I want you guys to fill up this thing up to the rafters we’ll make it worth your while if you guys show up before the spring game because we are literally opening up Buffalo Wild Wings a an hour earlier than they anticipated they
Normally are open from 10: to 10: to you know midnight I said can you get us open at 9: they said yes bring people there and I was like I’ve got a crew I’ve already got at least 175 people confirmed justify my text messages in last two days so if you guys are
Interested in it send me an email Barton b2n period1 145 Gmail so we get kind of accurate headcount it’d be really fun um but I’d love to see you guys again it’s very lowkey no admission price I just want to see you guys in your Smalling faces that’ll be really
Fun uh but yeah it’s goingon to be a really uh it’s goingon to be a really good time Nevada um eventually you’re going to get to a Meetup correct no I’m definitely going to be there I’m I’m definitely going to get there this is the year I’m going to try
To you know be a little bit more active in Columbus and you know who knows going forward I may have a kid at Ohio State so if that happens I’ll be there all the time then then you’re gonna be like trying to get rid of Nevada just like
Yeah Nevada why are you here all the time and be like I’m just here all the time so I’ll be staying at the Barton household and uh I can host the meet and greets down in your basement and stuff like that it’ll be it’ be a lot of
Fun did you say the Barton household or the bar period H kind of both kind of both exactly yeah I’ve seen I’ve seen the ACT he’s he’s not sitting in the household very long yes I will so Nevada as we get into week two of Spring ball obviously a lot of these
Guys are on Spring Break um licky Keen Holz your boy and Devon Brown both at the UFC fight what are you expecting when we get into week two of spring W because I think it’s going to be really exciting to see you know who steps up
Who’s going to be the next guy um and sometimes it’s not all these guys you expect like people didn’t expect the mford to move to guard um do you have any big proclamations or projections going forward well I just think the quarterback battles just you know I know
I know Chip Kelly is really eager to kind of put these guys to the fire and kind of see what he has and you know see you know he’s gonna put try to challenge Devin and and will and and Lincoln and you know I mean obviously Julian and a
Are there but you know how much we’re going to rely on for this year but I know those top three they’re going to get thrown to the wolves and um you know Chip’s excited Chip’s excited about seeing what he can do with these guys see can he put these guys in some
Interesting spots you chances to be successful and see kind of uh you know acclimate to what he wants them to do as quickly as possible and they’re going to they’re going to start working on all sorts all sorts of things including electronic communications because they
Want to be you know ahead of the curve get ready as much soon as they can in terms of being able to get that stuff going but um the quarterback battle you know it’s kind of an obvious one but it’s it’s not as obvious as people might
Think because Devin Brown has really got a mindset that you know I think people had written him off like he was out the door that he was leaving that that you know he wasn’t really going to be a real competitor that this jobs will Howards
And you Ohio State wants it to be will Howards they intended to be will Howards Ryan Dave you know you went to the the well with nil to make it will Howards but you know Devon’s gonna make it a he’s gonna make it a dog fight this year
And he and he’s really kind of put himself in a position you know mentally and physically to be a real factor in this quarterback Derby and um I’m going interested to see how will Howard responds to that you know because I I think no matter what will Howard thought
When you when he came here he’s probably thinking I’m going to be just you know the first guy I’m G to have the ball handed to me I’m going to get it done um but I think he’s in he’s in a in a real dog fight and may the best man win and
And we’re gonna need all of them to do it but the will Howard Devin Brown battle um I think that’s going to be the Battle of spring and and certainly one to keep a close eye on totally agree and I also think that when you’re um a thiry
Guy like Deon is and you know the offense like you got a big Edge on W hard so he’s got a make Headway the best he can through Spring ball um try to make your case for the starting spot because I think that the longer that goes the more favor of w Howard
Obviously Ryan Day recruited the crap out of will Howard they paid him almost a million dollars to come here so you know again if it’s all equal in my head if if the coaching staff is paying you um unless you stink and again Victor Cutler who they paid a bunch of money to
Last year stunk um and he went to Louisville after a year and he was trash um otherwise like if they’re paying you a lot of money you’ve got a big Edge to start so it’ll be interesting to see how this all goes Nevada I saw this photo
Today it made me think of you uh quinan Judkins Trey Henderson how happy does that make you how good is that to see uh Quin Chon looks like an absolute animal I mean obviously Trey is the best running back in the country but what are your thoughts on seeing these two in the
Same backfield together yeah never never ever ever ever thought I would see a picture like that short of it being photoshopped or something you know I I you guys know I’m a betting guy I would have laid a lot of money on the fact that that Quin Sean junkins is not
Coming to Ohio State if Trey Henderson’s there so um another example of you just never know and how football’s changing and and also what a great great great teammate Trey Henderson is and smart business all the way but still a great teammate um but I mean a a a more
Dynamic duo at running back at Ohio State you may never see than those two in the same backfield because it’s literally the you I won’t say the favorite but a a real chance depending on carries to be the first team All-American and second team All-American running back in the same
Backfield and um you know it’s kind of Darren mcfaden Felix Jones um you know yel and der I me I mean it’s it’s you know uh Chris Wells and uh Antonio Pitman I mean it’s just it’s it’s a it’s an embarrassment of riches at running
Back Bri state in a year where you need to have an embarrassment of riches so um yeah no very excited about that also that little breaking news alert uh James nor just came out with the Tweet the the famous the Tweet which usually typically implies incoming commitment so our uh
Our show on the the 2025 class being the could be timely because would but you see that from James that typically means something incoming not sure what it is we’ll dig in to see who it is but um I you know helping technician said yesterday he thought the dam was about
To break things were coming in things were start you kind of flying in over the transom hot and heavy but uh this James LA’s tweets got me thinking that it may be sooner than we might think it could be this evening so keep an eye on
That do you think that means that like Keenan Bailey’s getting like a 10e extension or no oh you and your Keenan Bailey oh Keenan Bailey Keenan Bailey stole Crooks lunch money or something like that there no Keenan Bailey’s gonna be fine this is this is GNA be good news
It’s not doesn’t mean that Keenan Bailey’s getting beat up by the strength coach or anything else like that I think it’s going to be something good for Ohio State and um I’m excited I’m excited I feel I feel like every time I see this it’s like a Christmas present because I
Don’t know which top rated 2020 recruit this is going to be but I know it’s going to be a good one and uh James wanted to come out of the the gate swinging and um maybe it’s one of his guys maybe somebody he’s hearing about but with all the big names that we’re
With all the five stars we’re into um as an Ohio State fan I’d be keeping an eye on Twitter because I think something’s breaking tonight are we are we rolling all way till that this actually breaks this will be very interesting to see if it actually does
Break yeah we’ll just we’ll just we’ll just roll we just we’ll just we’ll stay here and they can watch me watch like the legend of Oak Island I can commentate that to people while we’re waiting for the uh the next Twitter thing to break you can watch watch shudder Islander
Oppenheimer yeah exactly exactly six Academy Awards I love that you think a ginger could take of my lunch money that’d be the funniest thing of all time I was like a’t no ging taking my lunch money after he got dog walked by a third string strength coach like that ain’t
Happening out here um Matthew Shelton thanks for the five as a player how much did you pay attention to other position battles and how do they affect the team uh can position decisions derail team chemistry that is a great question um I didn’t really care unless it
Directly affected me which is the the offensive guard the tight end um the rest of them don’t affect me I mean obviously whoever my guard is is a huge deal uh quarterback’s a huge deal because again I played with a quarterback that sucked and a quarterback that was really
Good um the quarterback that was really good didn’t start initially um the one that sucked did so uh when they put in the quarterback that was really good he won the Heisman it was uh it was really beneficial for the team see Kirk see Kirk Kirk I love the way that you’re
Doing it and like you’re not naming the guy so you’re not like selling the guy out or anything like that it’s like completely I I I I never they would never be able to guess it ever they’ll never guess it this is this is this is another reason why you’re so good at
This man like you’re do it’s like it’s like a mystery it’s like a guessing game I have no idea who you’re talking about so anyway but but I but I interrupted you so I digress well I I mean there’s some guys that were that won Heisman and there’s some guys that were
BOS and that’s fine and again you know people can say oh I’m a hater and whatever it’s like you know but you know people lie but numbers don’t which is fine um but you know like I I I have no idea what people saw on some guys and
What what people saw on other guys and you know again I had a nice media band for a year when I said that a guy that won the Heisman should have played and uh Steve snap who I love to death it was the best Sid in Ohio history way better
Than the clown that we have at Sid right now um he you know he banned me because I said Troy should play and Troy ended up winning the Heisman Trophy he’s the I mean he I mean Drew Brees didn’t win it didn’t win it JJ McCarthy didn’t win it
CJ St didn’t win it J Fields didn’t win it h Haskins didn’t win it but Troy did so as a big 10 quarterback he won the the the big dog the Heisman um beat Michigan every year obviously you know he’s crucified for releasing that 4 game
Where we sucked as a team which is fine um but thank God we had him and thank God trust and Joe Daniels saw the foresight to go take a really good quarterback in that class because otherwise we might have been back in the 90s again if we didn’t have have a great
Quarterback in that class um now now do you do you remember how late Troy Troy was such a late ad it was like like the day before Signing Day or something he was like the last guy they said he was an athlete they didn’t want to Spook you
Know the other quarterback but why who cares but uh you Troy was a Difference Maker and again like if you’re if you’re a a head coach and you’re an offensive coordinator and your quarterback is not a Difference Maker you you have no chance of keeping your job you’re going
To get fired you’re not going to beat good teams again if you’re at Ohio State and you’re playing against acan Youngtown State Kent State um San Diego State Northern Illinois yeah if you don’t have a difference B quarterback you’re still going to run through them but when you play real teams like
Michigan and Texas those type of guys like you have to have a real quarterback I mean again the reason we lost to Texas at05 Vince Young and after we lost to Texas texas5 I prayed to God that Texas ran the table and won the national title
CU like I was like well if Texas goes undefeated and they run the table then guess what like Vince is going to League he’s not going to stay for 06 we have to go down to Austin and we get we were lucky we get to see col McCoy who’s a
Freshman second game of his career and you know we beat him like 24 to six which again for us like I don’t care if we’re playing Vince or Colt but like they were number one in the country we’re number two and we we we whooped them you know and again Co McCoy ended
Up having a long NFL career really good college quarterback he been finalist but he was in game two of his career so he wasn’t really that great so you know again like I just like to be real and again people could say Kirk well you’re
A hater oh this guy could do the same stuff with the same Supporting Cast I’m like well he didn’t because he stunk um but Troy did so it was good so but K Kirk you ever think about like how different your whole look your whole career your whole Legacy your whole life would
Be different if Troy doesn’t get offered the day before Signing Day on the thing because think about who your quarterbacks would have been back then and as good as you guys were you’re not winning you’re not going to the national championship and doing all those things
You know what I’m saying like you know you’re I mean it’s just crazy to think about how everything would be different if they don’t offer this uh this kid from Glenville the day before sign it because I remember being so late and we all kind of rooting for him to get
Offered but nobody had any idea that he would he’ be that good I mean I I certainly did you know you you did from seeing him play and and have an idea but you know as a fan you he was returning kickoffs as a freshman so like you know
You’re not thinking of him as like Ring of Honor Heisman Trophy only quarterback to ever win the Heisman but uh it is kind of funny how life comes down to a few moments and and that one had profound impacts on Ohio State football in general and and Kirk Barton in
Particular yeah I mean here here’s the de and I told this to people all the time and they don’t believe me but because everyone’s like everyone that’s dumb and doesn’t understand football is like oh the game is one of the trenches oh it’s all it all comes out the line
It’s like no it doesn’t it comes out of the skill guys because like I don’t touch the ball ever I I I tell people like look Orlando Pace the greatest offensive line in the history of college football never beat Michigan never won a Natty you know beat Arizona state who’s
Stunk and whatever but it’s like did hone the big ring no did he ever get a big 10 title no so it’s like he could pancake a guy on every single play and it doesn’t matter because he us to score touchdowns he to run for touchdowns and
I said look the reason I beat Michigan my four years as a as a starter at the Ohio State University I beat Michigan as a true as a freshman rard sophomore rard junor and a senior why did I do it San Antonio Holmes Ted gin Anthony Gonzalez Beanie Wells
Antonio Pitman Troy Smith period end like and again like I could pancake my guy every single play but if our skill guys suck I have no chance to win so again you know the the lines when you when you play Michigan in the Ohio State Michigan game
The lines are always equal like like the O Line’s good the D Line’s good on both sides so there’s a lot of stalemates there’s a lot of congestion and you need the skill guys to make plays now there’s going to be some guys is Kirk it’s got
To be the o line dominating the dline dominating the Tren is like no because like the problem is like when you’re really good in the o line like most of the games are stalemates like you’re not going to get just annihilated and murdered and slaughtered by whoever you
Play if you’re a good o line it’ll be a steal mate and so who has to win the the skill guys have to win they have to go get they have to go make timely catches they have to make big runs quarterback has to scramble or throw a dart and and
Move the chains so again if people are stupid and most people are stupid when they talk about football like you have to understand if when you play a good team if you’re Ohio State you have you know usually like four and five star Guys across the board on the o line and
You’re going to match up uh very favorably with Michigan or Bama or Clemson whever you play and then you just have to like you know kind of meter everything out and when you meter everything out like you know you need guys like San Antonio to make plays you
Need guys like T to make plays Gonzo um go back and watch the games that I won 0405 0607 like our skill guys win those games Beanie Wells uh you beanie had 220 yards rushing up at in Arbor and 07 because he broke long runs it wasn’t
Because it wasn’t because we all panc everybody he’s found a crease and went to the crib so you have to have major dudes at those spots um I got Travis Hall I got to make sure I hit these super chats uh Travis Hall thanks for the five I’ll donate a bucket scoop
Barrel head for the Meetup that’d be amazing you can do that we’ll shout you out and your company out and we’ll uh go through everything and uh make sure that you get some some Pub the barrel heads are very gas give me one second Nevada do you like the barrel

Think it’s be really fun um Nevada in the future is it possible to have a meet up at a larger place I mean Nevada if it’s a bigger spot Nevada might be coming in but a thousand people beat ups that’d be a dream for me um but we’re
Gonna have uh we’re going to have promo people promo girls it’ll be it’ll be pretty fire I already got it all dialed up already soot love to see guys but NADA your thoughts on that yeah no I think that’s the tough part the tough part is really you know we know there’s
A lot of enthusiasm in those people but you know talking about it and then actually showing up and but I I want to see us show up I want to I want to challenge the the scoop family and the podcast family to come out enforce and really you know really represent um I

We’d love to we’d love to see you out there um also I’m gonna make a call on the I’m calling it’s this is like the election night calling where we’re like we are now calling the state of Delaware I am now calling tarvis Alford to Ohio
State that I’ll say that is what the Tweet is about I’m saying it’s going to be the linebacker tarvis Alford to Ohio state from the decision the decision desk just weighed in on that so that would be uh I again it was one of our Magnificent Seven that we’re looking for
To get into the uh Ohio State to kind of bump us up the rankings but tarbus Alford could be a domino falling to Ohio state is that your prediction yeah the prediction Des is has weighed in it has spoken did you thank funky for that or no

Know you’d be like oh man Coffee Bean and In-N-Out Burger are the two great exports from the state of California but oh I know the funny the funniest thing about like in an Out Burger is that they don’t have it in Missouri so it’ll be so we’re all going to be laughing together
I I like I like hear people slander in and- Out burger from other places oh it’s not that great I went third it it is guys it is that eat an Out Burger is that is the greatest franchise that’s ever been in existence like when I
Played for the 49ers I ate there four days a week I mean I probably ate more calories than an Out Burger than you have in your entire life in one year I mean I was getting three fourx fours it was fantastic so I I’m just saying like
People that sler in and out they’re idiots they’re haters and they’re dumb they’re ha they’re haters they’re just like oh it’s not that great I like just no it it really is that great it really it really is well I have got to shout out our boy
Devin so if you guys are in the northern part of Florida specifically Tallahassee area got my boy Devon here one W excuse me o NE then Wy so Oney Services SE rvi ces.com so o w s e r vses so you guys to see Ohio 7715 if you guys have any sort of
Handiwork in the Northern Panhandle surrounding areas he is my guy he’s on Facebook um he is an amazing dude he does a great work and I love him to death and he was like can you shut my business out because I’ve been moderating and working my heart out and
I’ve been super chatting and I was like dude just holler at your boy because there might be somebody up there that might hire you for a gig it’s not that hard hard but um again it’s one o n e then y Wy and services SCV ies.com so
Holler my boy again you guys that are in this chat if you guys are in Florida which a lot of you Buckey are um he’s in Tallahassee he’s a great dude obviously he’s on the show every night moderating his heart out um but he does very very
Well does great work a holl my boy and if you guys need any work done take care of my boy Nevada um I’m gonna give you a final thought now here’s a fun fact fun fact that you guys might not know this we always talked about the pet raccoon did you
Know that a pet raccoon is illegal in the state of Ohio but legal in the state of Florida bet you didn’t know that you did not look that up did you look that up for real I I I just know that I just know that I I have know that okay check then
Check me check me right now come on Google machine go to the Google machine no I’m not doing you’ll say you’ll say cuz what you’re say is oh bet me bet me yeah bet asro be asro be the money that in Florida you can own a and in
Ohio you can’t I’m like I’m not betting you because you probably did your research you probably had one of your kids look it up and you’re like oh in Florida you can have a pet raccoon and in Ohio if you have a pet raccoon you go
To prison for 100 years so I’m like I’m not doing that because you you only bet me when the you bet me when it’s rigged and you know you’re going to win so I’m not doing it because I know you already have yourself in order and I’m not going
To do it smarter than that I know people people were questioning that they were like hey Devon don’t Devon shouldn’t be talking about breaking the law you know because it’s illegal to own raccoon in state of Ohio I’m like not in Ohio in Florida man you can own a r fet raccoon
That’s why Devin lives in Florida is for the pet raccoon you’re you’re just like that’s why I’m partners with Kirk because he’s my pet raccoon and I can just own him and can’t do anything my my big my big big big cover bear my big 600 lb raccoon who does the podcast every
Night and he’s sitting there and he’s just give me some give me some give me some give me some chips aoy cookies and watch me eat them as fast as I can like a little baby RAC here all right let’s wrap this thing up before we get out of
Pocket and crazy but uh again appreciate you guys Nevada final thoughts greatest class of all time funniest podcast of all time as well um but your thoughts on that I think that we might be getting a commitment probably not tonight because they’re proba not going to be announced
Until the 30th but I have a feeling that tarvis Alford might get a good feeling about this uh stud linebacker could be part of the 2025 class a name to keep an eye on in the future the thank you James laurenitis God bless you and I’m glad that you’re
The uh the 10th coach at the Ohio State University V is is is James orius more fruitful on the recruiting circum than Parker flaming well we haven’t landed a single Long Snapper since James has been here so we’re on kind of a Long Snapper uh
Hiatus so until he lands one of those I can’t say that he’s uh better than the legendary Parker flaming but charvis Alford would be a nice start so uh keep going James go James go all right so I’m gonna throw this up here because my wife
Who’s totally out of pocket and is in my face and in my girl at all points of time of my life is uh saying Kirk it is oneway on but I literally said I literally was saying what Devon sent me oneway Services Florida so if you guys need kitchen and bathroom Renovations

Let's Go Bucks
We always had superior talent. Time for Day to step up an learn how to win now.
Can someone tell me what Kirk's email address is?
🍻
Seems like every 4 years during the odd years that TOSU puts together all-time great classes.
2013, 2017, 2021…..So by that progression, yes we fully expect for the 2025 class to be elite as well.
Let's Go
Back home in Plymouth,Michigan spent a month in Clearwater beach! Go Bucks!
Go! BUCKS!!! THANK YOU SCOOP FAMILY!
2025 can be very dangerous and hopefully it happens. Checking in from Los Angeles. GO BUCKS ! ! !
Kirk, regarding MEET UP…
One…What will everyone do for game after you leave Wild Wings at 1130?
And Two…Will you do any meetups for fall games?
Hey guys,new to the scoop,my wife wants to know,why is Nevada not on screen?
LOVE The show guys, Kirk's Mic is too Low. GO BUCKS!!!! CHEERS FROM GENOA OHIO
How much is guaranteed?
Earlier today on The Podcast at Rooster's, Zwick mentioned how you were vocal about your preference for Troy over him. But he did so without naming you.
Little biased. Saw Ryan Montgomery play his first 3 years. Can't believe Day pulled the plug on his recruitment. Kirby offered him early.
Give update on Merch !!!
Devin Brown should exercise some humility and not over-talk. He didn't achieve jack schitt last year and barely played. He quickly got knocked out of the games he did play. Day should've made things clear: Howard is our #1, our starter, barring injury. Period. That doesn't mean Brown won't play. Try him in various games. But this QB competition between Howard and Brown is BS.
Recruiting has been going well, but Day needs to make better decisions. The only answers are during the season, not spring practice. We're just hoping and speculating now. But the staff does deserve credit for the people coming in, the raw material.
ok you all didn't suck as a team that night in 2006. You all injured your best player after he ran it back for a touchdown. ON THE FIRST KICK OFF OF THE GAME! I love you Kirk but i will forever be salty about that game. you can't take out your best player and expect to beat an urban Meyer team!
Best Ohio State channel on YouTube hands down. Love you guys every day
1967 recruiting class did fairly well when they were first allowed to hit the field in 1968.
2025 class best ever? Remains to be seen.
Checkin in from Mansfield Ohio!
I cant believe Justin Fields aint already been picked up out him in Dallas he better than Dak bet he win a playoff game Put him SF he better purdy out him jets sit work with A Rogers and then start when he retires in 2 years
Happy Birthday to Ryan Day ! 🎉
Moving ever closer to be the Natty run…what a year 24 will be
How do I get one of the super questions, or whatever it's called? Do I need to put it on during the live show? Thank you
Hey, I got a question for you all on this comment board. I've never asked this, but what do you guys think about Egbuka?
Me personally, I've never been really impressed by what I've seen. I mean he is real good, but I don't see superstar talent. Idk if it's just me, or does anyone else think that. I mean last year I actually like Harrison Jr. #1 obviously, but then I liked Stover, a tight end as the #2 receiver, then a tie for #3 in Fleming and Tate. I think now that Tate is #2, and he starts catching some balls this year, that he'll move up to #1 quickly, because last year when he got some reps, he didn't drop many passes, and he ran well after the catch. And a lot of his drops were because McCords timing was really hit and miss. That's why Fleming got mad and left. He wasn't catching many passes because he couldn't adjust to McCords bad timing and started dropping a bunch of passes, so he stopped throwing to Fleming. I saw some bad throws to Harrison, but he would adjust and catch em. He was smart enough to catch that McCords timing was off, and he prepared for it. He caught a lot of balls in traffic and behind him. Fleming couldn't do that, so they stopped throwing to him and he gave up. I got no respect for him. I think Tate and Smith are gonna make a huge impact this year if they play Smith as much as they should. I think he'll impress and they put em in more than they usually do a freshman.
Kirk, Nevada, can you list the current coaching staff at TTUN to walk their team through dpring practice. Has to be a cluster f…
I dont care who starts. But we need to rotate QB's once we are up enough. All the QB's should get meaningful playing time this year. Im tired of seeing a loaded QB room with none but the starter playing. Qhen Devin got hurt, we should have had Lincoln in getting reps. Even if he was just handing off the ball.
