‘Old Soul’ Emeka Egbuka Is Buckeyes’ Answer Man
Ohio State wide receiver Emeka Egbuka didn’t catch many passes in 2021 as a true freshman and then dealt with injuries last year as a junior, and yet if he has the same kind of season he did as a sophomore, he could leave OSU as its all-time receptions and receiving yardage leader.
Metropolitan Division: Patrik Laine Cleared to Return, on NHL Trade Block
Earlier in the summer, we learned that Columbus Blue Jackets forward Patrik Laine was a candidate to be moved via NHL trade. However, due to his attendance in the NHL/NHLPA Player Assistance Program, those discussions were put on pause. Now, the 26-year-old Finnish sniper is reportedly cleared to return from the assistance program — via Elliotte Friedman — which means the Blue Jackets have free rein to discuss a trade with other teams. In fact, it appears that step has already been taken, as the 26-year-old and his agent have been given permission to speak with other teams.

Fran Brown credits wife for Syracuse landing QB transfer Kyle McCord from Ohio State
Kyle McCord made headlines as one of the initial high-profile college football players to enter the transfer portal last December.

OSU’s Weak Schedule Does LIttle To Create Faith…Day Doubted In ‘Buckeye Nation’
Deemed ‘the best team money can buy’ by cynical fans, ‘Buckeye Nation’ is apparently less than impressed with the proof (strength) of schedule in 2024. The expensive part comes from the certain knowledge that talent like TreVeyon Henderson, Emeka Egbuka, and Denzel Burke did not return for one more year for the privilege of singing Carmen Ohio, post-game. NIL (name, image, and likeness) is what enticed them back…that and whatever human pride is left in college sports after losing to Michigan three straight years, and a dismal Cotton Bowl performance against Missouri last December 29, when the Buckeyes’ offense spit and sputtered its way to a 14-3 loss.
