Ohio State’s roster reset begins at the most important position on the field — quarterback.
In this episode of The Daily Buckeye Blitz, we break down the Buckeyes’ 2026 quarterback room following the transfer portal window and coaching changes. Julian Sayin returns after a Heisman-finalist season, but expectations are higher than ever as he enters Year 2 as the face of the program under new offensive coordinator Arthur Smith.
We examine Sayin’s development, the departure of Lincoln Kienholz, the additions of transfer quarterback Justyn Martin and freshman Luke Fahey, and what this season means for former five-star Tavien St. Clair. We also project the 2026 depth chart and identify the biggest question facing Ohio State’s offense heading into the fall.
This is the first episode in our position-by-position Roster Reset series for Ohio State football.

Ohio State’s offense is about to change — but not in the way most fans think.
With Arthur Smith taking over as offensive coordinator, the Buckeyes aren’t chasing video-game stats or early-season fireworks. They’re building an offense designed to win in January, not just September.
In this episode, we break down:
How Ohio State’s offensive structure will change in 2026
What Arthur Smith brings schematically from the NFL
Why personnel groupings, motion, and sequencing matter more than play calls
Projected offensive stats (yards, rushing volume, balance, efficiency)
How this offense makes life harder for elite playoff defenses
Why this is about control, flexibility, and reliability, not flash
This isn’t a player-by-player hype show.
This is about how the offense works, why Ryan Day wanted this profile, and why Ohio State’s ceiling might actually be higher with fewer empty possessions.
If you’re expecting the same spread offense with a new name on the headset — this episode is for you.

This isn’t hype or NFL nostalgia. It’s a clear-eyed projection of how Ohio State’s offense will function on Saturdays this fall — and why this hire is about efficiency, balance, and winning in January.
🔍 Topics covered:
How the run game becomes a foundation, not a complement
What changes for Ohio State’s quarterbacks in 2026
Why tight ends and personnel flexibility matter more than ever

Ohio State finally has its new offensive coordinator — and it’s a move that tells us exactly how Ryan Day wants to run this program.
The Buckeyes hired Arthur Smith, a former NFL head coach and longtime NFL play-caller, to take over the offense. This wasn’t a panic move or a message-board hire. It was Ryan Day going back to the same checklist he’s trusted time and time again.
In this episode of The Daily Buckeye Blitz, we break down:
• Why Ryan Day consistently hires veteran NFL play-callers
• How Arthur Smith fits the same mold as Chip Kelly and Bill O’Brien
• What this hire says about Day returning to CEO mode
• Why the run game is the real story behind the move
• How Smith’s offense pairs with Day’s passing concepts
• Legitimate concerns — and why Ohio State is built to handle them
Arthur Smith checked every box Day was looking for. Now the real work begins.

Ohio State still doesn’t have an offensive coordinator — and Buckeye fans are spiraling.
In this episode of The Daily Buckeye Blitz, we break down what Ryan Day actually wants in his next offensive coordinator and why most of the names floating around message boards and social media don’t add up.
We start with Day’s proven hiring criteria: experienced play-caller, NFL background, adaptability, and the ability to run the offense while Day steps into a true CEO role. Then we run through the full rumor list — from fan favorites to pie-in-the-sky NFL names — and whittle it down to the small group of candidates that actually fit.
We also explain why this search feels slow, quiet, and frustrating — and why that’s completely normal under Ryan Day. His biggest coordinator hires historically come late January into February, often after the Super Bowl, once the NFL coaching dominoes fall.
Topics include:
Ryan Day’s OC hiring philosophy
Why internal promotions are risky
NFL vs college coordinator fits
J.T. Barrett vs Keenan Bailey vs outside hires
Todd Monken, Brian Daboll, Kliff Kingsbury buzz
Why silence doesn’t mean panic
When Ohio State fans should actually expect news
If you’re tired of fantasy hires and want a reality check on Ohio State’s offensive coordinator search, this is the episode for you.

The transfer portal is closed — now we find out what Ohio State’s defense actually looks like.
On today’s episode of The Daily Buckeye Blitz, we break down Ohio State’s projected 2026 defensive depth chart using 2025 snap counts, portal additions, and returning production to separate assumptions from reality.
We cover:
Kenyatta Jackson’s leadership role and why EDGE is still unsettled
The full defensive tackle reset around Eddrick Houston
How Payton Pierce and Riley Pettijohn take over after Reese and Styles
What Terry Moore and Earl Little Jr. change on the back end
Corner vs. nickel math — and why versatility is the theme
Special teams upgrades that quietly matter more than people think
This isn’t about star rankings. It’s about who played, who’s trusted, and who must step up heading into spring ball.

The transfer portal is closed — now it’s time to stop guessing and start projecting.
On today’s episode of The Daily Buckeye Blitz, we break down Ohio State’s 2026 offensive depth chart position by position using actual 2025 snap counts, not recruiting stars or offseason hype.

Why Julian Sayin’s next leap matters more than his Heisman finish
Bo Jackson’s role as the unquestioned RB1 and how the room stacks behind him
The first real post-Hartline wide receiver depth chart
Tight end by committee after Max Klare’s departure
Why Ohio State trusted continuity over portal help on the offensive line
This is a reality-based look at who actually played, who’s projecting forward, and where spring battles will decide the offense.

More than half of Ohio State’s 2025 scholarship roster is gone — 47 players lost to the transfer portal, the NFL Draft, or graduation. And yet, the Buckeyes still enter 2026 with 88 scholarship players after adding 16 experienced transfers and a 28-man freshman class.
In this episode of The Daily Buckeye Blitz, we break down Ohio State’s 2026 roster position by position, examining what the Buckeyes lost, what they added, and how the roster stacks up now that the transfer portal window is effectively closed. From quarterback and wide receiver turnover to major defensive reloads in the secondary and trenches, this is a full roster reset — and a clear look at Ohio State’s evolving roster-building strategy in the NIL era.

Ohio State is active in the transfer portal again — but this isn’t chaos, panic, or reckless spending.
In this episode of The Blitz, we break down who Ohio State Buckeyes is still targeting on offense, why running back and wide receiver remain in play, and why the offensive line is not being overhauled despite late-season struggles.
We discuss the return of Bo Jackson, portal targets like Ja’Kobi Jackson and Makhi Frazier, the latest on wide receiver depth, and what all of this reveals about Ryan Day’s evolving roster strategy in the NIL and transfer portal era.
This is a reality check on how Ohio State is building its 2026 offense — prioritizing experience, value, and immediate impact over splashy headlines.

Larry Johnson’s contract at Ohio State expires at the end of January — and that raises real questions about the future of the Buckeyes’ defensive line.
In this episode of The Blitz, we break down what comes next for Larry Johnson and the Ohio State Buckeyes. Is an extension likely? Is retirement finally on the table? Or is Ohio State quietly preparing for a transition at one of the most important positions on the roster?
We discuss Johnson’s legacy, recent recruiting and development trends, how Matt Patricia’s defensive philosophy factors into the decision, and what Ohio State would prioritize if it had to replace one of the most accomplished defensive line coaches in college football history. We also speculate on realistic internal and external replacement options — not fantasy hires.
This is not a hot-take episode. It’s a sober look at timing, roster construction, and what Ohio State needs next to keep its defensive front elite.

Ohio State fans are watching the transfer portal chaos unfold and asking the same question: why aren’t the Buckeyes just buying everyone?
In today’s episode of The Blitz, we break down what Ohio State refuses to do in the transfer portal — and why that restraint is actually a competitive advantage.

We explain:
Why Ohio State won’t overpay for “potential”
How portal additions impact locker room culture
Why the Buckeyes won’t block young talent for short-term fixes
How NIL discipline separates Ohio State from chaotic programs
Why patience now matters more than headlines in January
This is a reality check for fans frustrated by portal losses — and a reminder why Ohio State remains built for long-term playoff success.

In this episode of the Daily Buckeye Blitz, we break down what Ryan Day actually wants in his next offensive coordinator and why the evidence points strongly toward an experienced outside hire rather than an internal promotion.
We use insights from national media, Ohio State beat reporters, and recent podcast discussions to outline the non-negotiable traits Ryan Day is prioritizing, including proven play-calling experience, NFL background, adaptability, and organizational structure. We also explain why Ryan Day functioning as a true CEO head coach works best for Ohio State — and why returning to full-time play-calling would be a mistake.
Topics covered:
Why Ohio State cannot afford another first-time play caller
The importance of NFL experience combined with college adaptability
Why recruiting is NOT a requirement for the next OC
How the 2026 schedule and roster window raise the stakes
Realistic offensive coordinator archetypes vs fan “fantasy hires”
This episode sets the foundation for the rest of the offseason conversation as Ohio State looks to reload for another national championship run.

The transfer portal window is officially open, and Ohio State Buckeyes are in full roster-management mode.
In this episode of the Daily Buckeye Blitz, we break down Ohio State’s biggest transfer portal needs as the Buckeyes reshape their roster for a 2026 national title run. This isn’t just about adding talent — it’s about balancing NIL money, roster retention, culture, and championship expectations in a portal era with no spring window and zero margin for error.
We dive into:
Why defensive line help remains priority No. 1 — even after landing John Walker
The urgent need for cornerback and secondary experience
How Ohio State plans to replace lost running back depth and explosiveness
Why wide receiver is suddenly a portal position after Brian Hartline’s exit
The quiet but real concerns at tight end, linebacker, safety, and kicker
How Ryan Day and the staff are playing portal chess — not chasing headlines
This is a full, honest look at where Ohio State must spend, where it can wait, and how one portal move impacts five others.
No hype. No panic. Just real roster math.

Ohio State moves quickly after the Cotton Bowl loss, hiring former LSU and Georgia assistant Cortez Hankton as the new wide receivers coach. In this episode, we break down what the Hankton hire means for Ohio State Buckeyes, how he replaces Brian Hartline at WRU, and why the timing matters with Jeremiah Smith, Julian Sayin, and five star freshman Chris Henry Jr. all converging in 2026. We also address skepticism from SEC fanbases, Hankton’s track record developing NFL wide receivers, recruiting impact, and how this move fits into Ryan Day’s bigger offensive reset — including the still unresolved offensive coordinator decision.

Ohio State’s season ended with a 24–14 loss to Miami in the Cotton Bowl, and the problems that finally broke the Buckeyes weren’t new. In this postmortem episode, we break down how offensive line issues that lingered all season finally collapsed under pressure, why Julian Sayin was never schemed away from Miami’s pass rush, and how Ryan Day’s possession-limiting philosophy left no margin for error. We analyze the missed blocking assignment that led to the pick six, the lack of early run-game commitment, special teams failures that resurfaced at the worst time, and why the defense was put in an impossible spot late. The issues were always there — Saturday just exposed them.
