How Today's Big Shift In NIL Will Change The Game For Ohio State x.com/i/broadcasts/1…
There was a MAJOR change to NIL rules this afternoon, and @TonyGerdeman and I got a chance to take a deep dive with athletic director Ross Bjork about what it means for the Buckeyes. We'll talk about it LIVE starting at 8:15 pm Eastern. youtube.com/live/L5ytXGyyI…
Spoke with Ross Bjork about Ross Dellenger's report that third-party NIL deals will be relaxed. “Buckeye Sports Group can operate just like a collective. ... We’re plug and play.” Bjork and Ryan Day were waiting for clarity. They may finally have it. buckeyehuddle.com/2025/07/22/in-…
Full updates from Ryan Day. Thoughts on Jeremiah Smith: "At his age, he's further along than anybody I've ever been around."; waiting for clarity on third-part NIL deals; quarterback talk, and a whole bunch more. buckeyehuddle.com/2025/07/22/rya…

Requirements for @NFLPA-certified contract advisors: Pass an exam (with a very low success rate), pay annual dues (~$2500) and get at least one player on an #NFL Roster every 3 yrs. If not, you're out. Requirements for NIL agents: Call yourself one.
Nearly 2,000 NIL "reps and agents" in the system. Goodness footballscoop.com/2025/07/22/how…
"I'm very excited about our defense and what we're doing." -- Ryan Day
Ryan Day is the first returning head coach to speak at Big Ten Media Days following a national title since Urban Meyer in 2015. Prior to that it was Jim Tressel in 2003.

Cignetti says schedules need to be standardizes regarding number of conference games.
Curt Cignetti: "Why shouldn't the Big Ten have four AQs? Ohio State actually finished fourth in the Big Ten last season."
I normally make a point to get new photos of every Big Ten coach at Media Days, but I'm going to make an exception to ensure that this is the only Mike Locksley photo in our database.
Maybe my favorite pregame tunnel shot ever. Maryland coach Mike Locksley and a state trooper who apparently ate too much Taco Bell roughly 45 minutes ago.
