Non-Apple folks like me, spreeker.com, hit us up there. Book our scoop family, book our nation was good. I see y'all in the chat going hard per usual suspects. We're going to dive right into it. We're going to talk about a generational five-star to a house state. A house state, excuse me. Fina, it's a familiar name and there's been some updates with this prospect. We're going to talk about as well. And so remember when you send us one of our super chats, it helps to go towards a pay of forward, which is our military and our first responders. We're going to look out for them because they always look out for us. Nevada. What's up, man? How are you feeling after this weekend? Busy sports weekend. And you know, I know you got some stuff coming up. What's going on? Yeah, just kind of sad that it'll house that to make the sweet 16. But you know, hey, we're in this spring football. Lots of great things going on. And some recruiting stuff really starting to pick up for the buckais as well. And you know, the Ohio State brands

never been hotter. And you know, they announced today, Jackson Smith and Jigba is now the highest paid wide receiver in the history of the NFL. I think what was like 120, 130 million guaranteed 42 million a year. This is a point of reference. Justin Jefferson's at 35 million a year. So that's 20% higher than Justin Jefferson for the great Jackson Smith and Jigba. You know, unbelievable accomplishment. And obviously all those things, whenever that happens, my first thought is always, how does that help Ohio State? And the answer is, you know, considerably because you know, all these guys want to get paid. They want to develop. They want to go on to NFL riches. And you know, it looks like, I mean, what's Jackson Smith and Jigba going to make in the NFL? You're not $500 million dollars for something before he's gone. I mean, that's what you want. That's the eye on the prize as opposed to an extra 100,000 here, an extra 100,000 there in LA. All money, you know, developed your culture over cash. And you know, great day for the black guys with Jackson

Smith and Jigba and a great calling card for Ohio State recruiting in general. Yep. Reach in the agreement with Seattle on a four year, 168.6 million contract extension. That now makes in the highest pay receiver in NFL history. Like Nevada said, the deal of averages, excuse me, 42.15 million per year and includes over 120 million guaranteed both setting records for any wide receiver. So yeah, listen, this is what we do. We do this, man. And so for those who thought that, you know, Brian Hartline leaving would just, because there have been some hot takes, Nevada, of, oh man, you know, we're about to fall off. Now, I don't, I ignore scum fans. They're always, you know, trying to cast our doom. They've been cast in our doom since, you know, Tressel was here. But even just some non-hater fans, like, oh, well, it's over. Not so fast, my friend. Not so fast. We talked about this Brian Hartline

has, has had the power of the black hole behind him. And remember, the ride receiver coach before him was a pretty good recruiter too. I mean, we've been wide receiver. You, we've been duking it out with LSU and other schools for wide receiver you for a long time. So don't think things are just going to stop because Hartline is gone, especially when you got stuff like this happening, which is a good transition. And I will pull this up, Nevada, into the generational five star phenom that we are referring to. And who is that? Nevada, you want to get into that? That'd be a jet Harrison, which, first of all, jet Harrison is one of the great football names of all time, you know, I'm sorry. It'd be like, if your name wasn't, wasn't brand-in, but it was like, be hops Moses or something like that. I mean, like, hey, mom and dad, you shouldn't name you holy, that'd be great. But yeah, jet Harrison is an absolute fabulous name. Obviously, the son of the great

wide receiver, Marvin and Harrison, senior and the brother of the great butt guy, Marvin Harrison, Jr. So, you know, the early word from Ohio State, I mean, this has been kind of a continuing thing. But the word from Ohio State is that they, you know, confidence is high, that jet Harrison's going to be a butt guy. The word that we've gotten over the weekend from jet Harrison's camp is that's the way that that's turning as well. So this would, you know, a very familiar name for Ohio State fans, but this is a player that's come in probably much more heralded than brother Marvin. I mean, because I mean, Marvin came in and I mean, I'm not saying he wasn't regarded a good wide receiver, but it wasn't like, oh, wow, like this guy's the next, you know, that's a big thing. Franky Cowell McCord was considered a higher recruit than Marvin Harrison was. It was almost like, hey, this guy's almost like a package deal with this quarterback and this and that. The other thing like that, you know, it's funny how those things turn out. But yeah, jet Harrison, the next great Harrison wide receiver, now a five star five star wide receiver

and definitely a guy that I could see Ohio State adding to their to their wide receiver hall here, you know, coming up relatively shortly. So definitely good news coming on on the recording front. For sure, let me go out and go back into these highlights. But yes, jet Harrison is an incredible name. That's just stupid like stupid like fire. Like that's a video game name. You know, when you're like playing Madden or something, you making a creative player, that's a creative player name. And so I'm gonna pull those highlights up, but you're right. People forget Marvin Harrison was like a four star four star kid. Good prospect. But, you know, is the overhyped because of his name. I mean, you were getting stuff like that throw in with Kyle McCord or that. But let me ask you, Nevada, because I know you watch jet and I'm gonna pull him up now. But I want your thoughts on the differences. I know the differences. Some of the differences I see and also see some similarities with him with Marvin. But there's some things that I feel like

he is just low key better at jet is over Marvin. And so I wanted to get your thoughts on jet and then I'll jump in. Well, I mean, to me, you know, I mean, the one knock that I would have on Marvin, if you can if you can possibly make a knock on a guy as great as Marvin Harrison was at Ohio State. I mean, you know, sure, he hasn't gone to the NFL and completely, you know, torn it up. But, you know, 12 or 14 TDs in two years, you know, 14 high yard, you know, 686 yards this year despite only playing 12 games. But I never felt like he was a big speed kind of guy, you know, like a guy that could kind of blow the top off there. And I just, you know, you know, jet just looks twitchier and faster and more fluid than Marvin did. And, you know, Marvin was a great tactician, you know, great catch radius, really strong guy. But I think jet's more explosive. You know, I think he's a guy that could play in a number of different positions. And I think he

could play in that slot that Jackson Smith and jig this spot. But I also think he's a type of guy that could take the top off on the defense. So to me, just a little bit more athletic Harrison, which that just sounds kind of crazy saying that. But that's how that's how I see him. And be interested to hear what your perspectives are on jet Harrison. No, I agree. I think he's clearly more explosive. But he also high points the ball just as well as Marvin Harrison was because Marvin Harrison in his high school film, he did a good job with 50 50 balls. But also look at the route. Let me go back here to about right here. Look at this route coming up. Hold on to the next clip. All right, here we go. Check out this route right here at the bottom of the screen. Boom. And he gets held like stuff like that to me is just like, okay, yeah, because Marvin

Harrison was very fundamental, very solid. He's bigger than jet. Jet is only 6-1. Let me see, 6-1-1-1-75. Marvin was like 16 and a half, 6-3, you know, in high school taller. But his brother is high point in the ball just as well. His route running looks great. But he does look twitch here and more explosive. And so obviously with the smaller size that might, you know, lead to that. But still, I mean, he might end up having a higher ceiling than Marvin Harrison. And clearly, he's a five star. The rivals has him as the number one player, right? So I mean, look at this. Boom. I mean, he's just, he's running east and west to get north with great speed. He doesn't drop balls. I mean, to get him to come here, because, you know, a lot of times you'll see, not a lot of times, but sometimes you'll see some legacies or brothers say, I'm going to, you know, I'm going to do my own thing.

I mean, if jet does come here, it kind of, to me, Nevada, you can tell what you think. It kind of confirms like, you know what? Like, my brother was treated very well at that school. On and off the field, it's a great program. It's tax season. And by now, I know we're all a bit tired of numbers. But here's an important one you need to hear, 16 billion dollars.

Because look honestly sometimes these these uh family member brothers or whatever don't end up going to some to some schools because they like ma'am. My brother was that was not a good situation low key. The public might not know it. You know what I'm saying? So anyway I'm just saying if we able to get jet here who might be even better that just shows how dope the program and that's without heartline Nevada your thoughts. Well yeah I think that would be a great endorsement of kind of for life after heartline that you could land you know receiver of this uh of this category but you know if you're jet Harrison you'd have I mean Marvin would have had to have had a really bad experience so I would say for you not to want to come here you know I'm saying I mean because all these these days are not stupid they're looking at and kind of going okay Jackson Smith and Jig the gear Wilson Crystal lobby Margaret Harris and uh Noah Brown I mean just go on and on and on and on down the list um and you got the the best one of literally the best one of

the bunch and JJ Smith is the next one so I I don't I mean you never like to say the anything's a mortal lock when it comes to recruiting because there's a lot of elements in there but yeah why on earth would you gamble with your future because Camino has states a sure thing you know barn injury you're gonna have a great career you're gonna go on to NFL riches and that's what these guys want to do you go anywhere else and it's I'm not saying there's no chance I mean that'd be ridiculous but it's less of it you there's a greater chance that it doesn't turn out the way that you want it to be and you know Marvin Harrison senior was obviously a very cerebral guy Hall of Famer you know Martin you know Marvin Harrison you know junior certainly has has out surpassed his high school recruiting ranking in terms of where he was wrapped the NFL draft and the kind of the situation he's put himself in there so I would you know it'd be shocking for jet to go you're short of you know there being just one of the things where you just don't want to go into brother's footstep you just don't want to go the same place brother but we we're not

hearing any of that and I think that's really the big story we're not hearing any of the hey you know I just want to go blaze my own trail hey I don't really want to go to Ohio State hey Marvin didn't really have the best you know contrary to what you think he didn't really have a great time at Isaac we're hearing none of those things and that again you know that gives me that much more confidence that that jet Harrison's gonna end up as a bucket yeah and so let me ask you I was gonna kind of go into a spill but I want to tee it up for you what is the common denominator Nevada what is the and I'm gonna touch on really quickly in a second another receiver we got coming in who could have left who could have whatever but you know they seem to be doing things to to double down on being a buck I even more I'll touch on that briefly what's the common denominator for a jet Harrison and his family to want to stick and stay even though the all world you know why receiver coach is gone Nevada I mean to me it's Ryan Day you know I'm saying

to me it's Ryan Day and you know the fact that Ryan Day you know if you think about what could screw up a wide receiver and what could screw up a wide receiver development and that is you know don't play in a system that throws the ball or don't play in a system that is really effective at throwing the ball and it gets the best quarterbacks and you know that Ryan Day is gonna have the best quarterbacks and that's you know I think that's just kind of that extra security blanket that you have there and you know as a wide receiver that's why you know the the quarterback position in college football is overpowered because when you get the good quarterbacks well you get all the other good players because then everybody else wants to come there and you most certainly get the best wide receivers because the best wide receivers want to come where they're going to be throwing the ball to and you know when you've got you know the list of quarterbacks that we've had in the recent past and then a current roster where you've got Julian saying you've got Tavine St. Clair you know you're getting the ball it's gonna get thrown to you it's gonna get thrown to

you often and and Ryan Day is certainly the the he's the common denominator he's the one thing that's there that's not changed about Ohio State and another reason why I think Jett Harrison ends up a butt guy I agree you said it I didn't even have to say that that was not rehearsed I knew he was gonna say that because it's the truth and so you know he just he knows how to not only that but the off the field stuff I've heard Marvin Harrison and interviews just praise Ryan Day because even Ryan Day in interviews talking about his son he wants him to go somewhere where he know he's gonna be taken care of on and off the field because that's what he does and so I mean all these relationships and things like that with Ryan Day at the helm just being a legit like there's nobody Nevada I know your contact your people people I know you know that no Ryan Day like really no Ryan Day nobody be like man he's really a deback behind the scenes don't get it twisted

like he sucks we hate him nobody I mean every now and then there might be a disgruntled parent whose kid didn't play but like Ryan Day is that dude he's the common denominator for sure and so that's just I mean as long as we have him I think the players and parents know regardless of who leaves we're going to replace them with somebody just as good if not better which is powerful because a lot of schools Nevada would crumble lose in a heartline like do you think that real quick and I'm gonna pull up a quick clip of something but let me ask you is that an overstatement to you that other schools most other schools would crumble losing a stud recruiter like heartline no I don't think that's I mean look Ohio State was concerned about it so I'm so concerned that they gave hotline the offensive coordinator position even though he wasn't you know really ready or qualified to do it but no you know but and and again I want to say

this very carefully that's why I'm enjoying every moment at Ryan Days here because look I'm sure you know you can say hey the school's bigger than Ryan Day and of course it is you know you've gone from Woody Hayes and in Hooper and you know Jim Trustle and Urban Meyer you've gone on both some great coaches at Ohio State but it's not guaranteed that the next step is going to be as good you know I'm saying so like I want to enjoy every moment at Ryan Days here because it's just it's surety you know it's surety that your offensive scheme is gonna be first right it's surety that you're gonna be able to get great offensive and defensive coaches to come work for you it's it's sure that your academics are gonna be in order that you're the quality of kids you're you're getting this gonna be great that your recruiting is gonna be first rate that you're always gonna have great quarterbacks you're always gonna have great winters you know but I mean there's just a lot that comes along with Ryan Day and will we survive when he inevitably moves on or whatever that is of course but I don't want that to be soon because again Ryan Day

represents just a a a guarantee of greatness for Iowa State and that you can't really say that about a lot of coaches and called football yep preach but you know you'll still have people who want them fired but it is what it is that's just pretty much the world we live in but I'm glad he's here too this is Jim here Brown I have on the screen and uh and they're seven on seven I'm bringing him up because he's another kid he's in the 2027 um class he's the number one receiving Ohio top 15 national player five star a stud stud stud very fast um I will call him a friend of the show he's been interviewed by dev I lost count he's been on the show um great kid hard working kid um and an Ohio product and I mentioned this as far as double I said earlier doubling down he moved from a Uber Heights Wayne where Braxton Miller went closer to my neck of the woods here in Columbus in the Columbus area to a high school called Big Warner now like I said I said this

before I don't I forgive you were on the show Nevada but you know programs have like over the past 20 years or so being in the Columbus area there are some programs who have went down and some that have went up Big Warner back we scrimmaged him in basketball we scrimmaged them I can't my junior year senior year anyway we played at Big Warner and they wasn't like that like their program was cool they they were solid but they weren't like a powerhouse so I was surprised when I heard he uh moved to Big Warner but then some others told me they um they've been really good um in recent years and you know they got a good program of stuff like that but anyway the point is Big Warner is not that far from Columbus so he was interviewed and asked why he did that and wanted to main things he said is so he can be closer to a house state I know there were some who were concerned about visits he might take in heartline leaving but this kid Nevada doesn't seem to be wavering at all in fact

he's putting his money where his mouth is by moving closer to a program so he can be closer to a house state and I mean that's his words so I mean this is another five star stud that could have left and demanded top dollar with heartline leaving and so this is just more proof now listen obviously there's there's time between now a signing day but the evidence says he's not leaving barring something crazy happening and so then you got jet in his family who's a stud and we're in we're still in on you know the milestones and the other guys so I'm saying I have to say I'm laying it all out for y'all it's not over till it's over but the evidence right now shows that we're still pointing in that trajectory uh we ain't stopping this wild receiver we're crewing trained Nevada well yeah no it's um you know I think for a house state it's you know it's you've got such a great

reputation and you know it's it's a great place for anybody to develop and I think Ohio State isn't you know you're not breaking the bank and I have but they're not taking a backseat you know they've got their focus kids where they're they're putting out real money I mean J.J. Smith is making real money that you're drilling saying that they're going to real money I've built they'll pay guys for production and you know getting them in there and they'll develop the heck out of them but for a kid like Jimmy or Brown I always look at you know how how is he reacting with the other recruits and he's the guy who's one of our leader recruiters he's the guy that's one of the leader recruit he's one of the guys you leave recruiting on jet Harrison so it's like you know I look at that and kind of go well you know that's the kind of guy that I want as black eyes and and it gives you a pretty good indication of where they're where they're parts at with their heads at in the sole process but when they're out there trying to sell Ohio State to other people as well to me that really speaks volumes yeah man I'm getting excited thinking about these future kids because I told you I'm a huge David Gabriel George's

and barring something crazy happening he's gonna be a book eye so imagine the speed on the outside with that type of NFL back and just the talent we got coming in is I guess what I'm saying y'all is I always preach this and so does Nevada appreciate what you have like we are we are recession proof as you can get we don't stop we lose I'm telling you there's been fans from other fan bases like man a heartline going you're done for real you think so yeah I don't think so and that's no knock on heart line it's just we we just we're not we're going to do whatever we need to do to stay on top you know I'm saying a higher you know whatever and so just appreciate it I'm telling Nevada like we I thought about a Jay Z song it's the it's called the medley intro and before he

starts rapping and he's he's like mocking people asking like well he ever fall off and he comes in like no and then he starts spitting he starts rapping his verse for those who know it's it's classic you know I'm talking about that's Ohio State it's like our haters is like are they ever go fall off and we'd like no and then we hit you with the bars I mean that's just how it is and so appreciate what we got y'all in this football program because we are on a heck of a run as far as consistency and just being elite and obviously we all want more natties but three of my lifetime is more than a lot of programs can say Nevada yeah and and yeah you sent me into David Gabriel George like that's a guy I said this before but I bears repeating I know I say get excited about every recruit and then I don't get sad about any way but if we don't get him I'm going to be sad me too yeah he's really really good he's

really really good if he could go somewhere else will we survive yes will football continue to be played most certainly but you know we've led this recruitment for a long time we've you know we've pulled out every stop on this one I feel it's like right where we need it to be and I really feel like we're getting him and when we do I'm gonna be I'm excited about every but I'm gonna be really excited about that one because I agree with you I agree with you be I think that that kid is a big time player and you know I I feel like you you need that you know you need that at the running back position to really be you know like last year if I had a criticism of our of our team last year and you know it's and again I know I'm spoiled from having Tray Henderson and Quinn John Jenkins year before but I didn't feel like we were really explosive at the running back last year and in Bo Jackson's good and in a thousand year and I know all those things but was he was he great and we expect kind of great at Ohio State you know those guys that every time they touch the ball you feel like they could take it to the house you know and that's how I felt Tray Henderson

every time Tray Henderson touched the ball I'm thinking he could house this you know I'm saying like and if he gets a little cruised he's gone I didn't feel that way last year and I want to feel that way again about the Ohio State running back room and I frankly I don't know if I'm gonna feel that way about the running back room this year because you know I think Bo Jackson Bo most certainly be better Isaiah West will be better Jacob sent isn't really that kind of a back and maybe Legend Bay's that guy you know maybe Legend Bay is that guy that can kind of make those things happen but but David Gabriel George is most certainly that guy and and I want to see him and Scarlet Gray you brought us some things that uh that triggers some thoughts I had a discussion with some buddies of mine about this and we'll get to Super Jazz we're gonna have a a harder stop tonight in a little bit uh and we'll get to Super Chats but Nevada you brought us some things that we discussed so here's the deal I think one thing that contributed to the lack of explosion

in the running back room is James Peoples did not step up and do what we all hoped he would do right running back out of Texas we saw really good speed on film and and plan against good competition I mean physically he looked apart um you know early on you know in the spring I mean he was doing well he was looking like he was going to be that guy and it just never came to pass he made some progression throughout the year you know he leaped over a guy and he started to wake up a little bit and be solid but he wasn't we needed more than solid from him James Peoples was supposed to be the guy and then you know the other guys chip in so with that said Bo Jackson and True Freshman had to be the guy and of course CJ Donaldson was a short yardage guy whatever past pro guy but Bo Jackson was our our best to back and he wasn't quite ready he was coming off the injury you know like all of that takes time to get your legs under you now with that said Nevada here's the other thing me and my guys were discussing and I'm not saying he's equal to

this person but I saw similarities and what was lacking JK Dobbins his freshman year he had a great freshman year remember he was called jump cut Dobbins I mean he was but his freshman year he was getting walked from behind at times but guess what he improved on that he got faster and he wasn't getting walked no more I mean when he was gone he was gone I'm pictured the Clemson game and that in that inside zone play nobody was catching him but his freshman year he probably would have got walked maybe same thing with Bo Jackson Bo Jackson to me is a really good back he has good vision he leans forward he gets north very quick but he got walked okay he needs to to get what Mickey I'm sure he is this injury's not helping but I think just like JK Dobbins he can improve on that Nevada to where he is a breakaway back because he

was almost there I mean like who was it against I forget the team but it was a 60 yard play all the way down to like the three yard line and he showed it was up the middle it was he squeezed through the hole and exploded down feel I'm like oh but he got walked so if he can do like JK and just get to that another level of speed and endurance and ability physically to go all the way I think he can be that guy because we see that he has it but he was only a freshman and every freshman is not going to be trade Henderson with the speed but I have hopes for Bo Jackson to take it to another level of like where he can be really really really good for isn't about any thoughts on that well you also remember that Bo was coming off a pretty significant injury from his senior year you know I'm saying and so you know one year removed from that you're not going to be as good as you're going to be two years from from that so yeah I to me that's the big thing so would have loved to see him in the spring see how bouncing spring is but again you're nursing a little bit

of an injury unrelated to the high school one should be back you know we'll go in the summer and then the fall but no I think it's a great point I think he absolutely got I mean he was that way in high school in high school man he was crazy you know I mean he was just running away from guy so I absolutely believe he can do it now I think I thought he was really close last year and if you pick some even just a little bit of speed a little bit of explosiveness you know you know a little bit back you know running a little bit sure you know again last year there's no way he's running the same reckless abandoned coming off an injury that he will be this year you know his confidence is going to be at a completely different spot so no I think it's a it's a good thing that we certainly could see more out of them and and hopefully we will yeah and then one other thing before we move to superchets the wild card within Nevada's explanation and criteria is turbo rogers turbo rogers has plenty of speed is he ready does he have the vision can he protect the ball you know is he able to be relied upon because we haven't really seen turbo play

in a game we just know he was highly rated snatched him from Alabama he's a twitchy fast you know fast guy but he has the ability to take it to the house but is he able to do that within the confines of being a running back you know I'm saying because it's not like you just handed the ball and it's just a straight line with nobody to tackle you you you see what I'm saying Nevada so what about turbo real quick no I look I you turbo's one of those guys that it's hard to get too excited about him because we just haven't been able to see him on the field but you know the players know where the players are and you know they say he's twitchy they say he's fast you know certainly his high school film you know it's reflective of that as well so he's okay he's absolutely a wild card and again it as I mentioned before legend bay another wild card of this thing you know what kind of guy like that do with the ball in his hands but yeah certainly you know turbo would be one that would that would be a nice surprise in the 2026 if we get some out of trouble Rodgers oh man it I mean to me I feel like he needs to I mean like listen you didn't play last year you've

been in it you're the most experienced Ohio State running back on the roster as far as that's available right now like you know because you know Isaiah and um and Bo are not are not practicing so you got to step up and lead and do your thing and and carve out some play in time I mean come on man let's do it I want to see it all right real quick uh keep Gordon happy birthday said he's checking in live from Daytona Beach oh that sounds nice Nevada it was 85 here in Columbus yesterday kids out riding their bikes we're throwing the football around I might even have white white the little bit of sweat and then it was 30 this morning here in Columbus that's crazy bro and then supposed to be like 40s 50s and then go back up listen this is just Ohio weather this is what it is you know what it sucks to be bored but when I get on my phone and play real casino games on spinquest.com the time flies by that two hour
