Off-Script Ohio: Special teams seriousness, hoops reality check, and depth-chart look ahead
Ohio State didn’t make any splashy moves this week, but they did make a key decision. By hiring Robby Discher as its special teams coordinator, Ohio State addressed a part of the program that had lingered in limbo for two seasons. The Buckeyes had functioned without a full-time coordinator on special teams, a reality that […]
Ohio State played host to a 2027 five-star offensive tackle
Ohio State’s football team is well within the thick of the offseason. Already days into February, Ryan Day and the coaching staff are about to get busier on the recruiting front, now that the open contact period is open. With spring recruiting camps quickly approaching, Ohio State is doing work identifying recruits it will want […]
The plays that made Kennedy Cambridge a must-watch for Ohio State fans
Ohio State women’s basketball guard Kennedy Cambridge was not alive when ESPN debuted its first ever top-1o plays countdown in the 1990s, but the guard seemed destined to make plays worth placement into one of the most famous lists in sports. On Sunday, against the Nebraska Cornhuskers, Cambridge put together another performance that sticks out […]
What do career records mean in modern college football?
When K.J. Hill became Ohio State’s career leader in receptions back during the 2019 season — less than seven years ago in geological time, but in world events it might as well have been the 18th century — he broke a record that had stood since David Boston snagged his 198th pass in 1998. Hill […]
Beyond the Box Score: Ohio State’s 2026 schedule, three Buckeyes in Super Bowl LX
It’s amazing to think about how long the offseason is in college football. Then again, coaches and other members of football programs may tell you there isn’t an offseason. For the Buckeyes, there will have been over eight months in between their last game in 2025 and their first game in 2026. Between now and […]
Which five-star freshmen will play sizable roles for Ohio State in 2026?
Rivals released its final rankings for the 2026 class last week, and Ohio State saw a number of its commits receive high praise. Five incoming Buckeye freshmen finished the recruiting cycle as five-star prospects, tying Notre Dame for the most of any program. Those five are, in order: Overall, Ohio State finished with 11 players […]
No. 11 Ohio State women survive late Nebraska run, win 90-71
For six weeks this season, the Nebraska Cornhuskers saw their name in the top-25 Associated Press rankings, until this week. Even so, Big Red brought a two-game winning streak with them to Columbus for a matchup with No. 11 Ohio State women’s basketball in a matchup of two star sophomore point guards in Buckeye Jaloni […]
You’re Nuts: Which current Buckeye do you think could make the Winter Olympics in a sport they have never played?

So, we’re bringing that to the pages of LGHL with our favorite head-to-head column: You’re Nuts. In You’re Nuts, two LGHL staff members will take […]
Plays of the Week: Ohio State comes up big, from the court to the mat
While most of the country was facing down a cold front this week, several Ohio State winter sports teams were heating up, delivering big plays and big wins in both men’s and women’s basketball, men’s wrestling and more.

Britt Prince and Nebraska face Jaloni Cambridge and Ohio State women
Every year, dynamic freshmen enter the Big Ten women’s basketball conference. Now, with an 18-team conference, that is even more true than before. Last season, the quality of new guards in the conference was hard to match across the power conferences. Ohio State women’s basketball benefited from the play of Big Ten Freshman of the […]
Final Four: Four stats that matter from Ohio State’s 92-82 loss at Wisconsin
Things started out well for the Buckeyes (14-7, 6-5) Saturday afternoon in Madison, but they fizzled out throughout the game as the Badgers (16-6, 8-3) shot their way to a 92-82 win over the Buckeyes. Ohio State got off to a 15-4 lead early, but the Badgers quickly rebounded to take a 49-43 lead into […]
You’re Nuts: Which recent Ohio State hooper would you bring back?
As if college athletics haven’t been wild enough lately, with trying to keep track of who is headed where in college football in the transfer portal, college basketball decided it was time to enter the chat. Over the last month, there have been a couple of head-scratching eligibility decisions handed down. On Christmas Eve, it […]
Visiting Locker Room: Corn Nation breaks down Nebraska women’s basketball
Sunday begins the home stretch for Ohio State women’s basketball.

Slow starts, fast finishes: Ohio State women’s basketball is currently a three-quarter team

You’re Nuts: Has John Mobley’s dominance left Bruce Thornton in an odd spot?
Happy Friday once again, and happy Wisconsin eve! Ohio State (14-6, 6-4) heads to The Badger State tomorrow to take on Wisconsin (15-6, 7-3) in a nationally televised showdown on FOX. Like Ohio State, Wisconsin only has one Quad-1 win on their resume – a road win over Michigan on Jan. 10. Ohio State’s Quad-1 […]
Taison Chatman’s opportunity may finally be here for Ohio State basketball
For most of the season, Taison Chatman has existed on the fringes of Ohio State’s rotation. Visible on the bench, active in warmups, but rarely part of the nightly plan. That changed against Penn State. With Gabe Cupps sidelined, Chatman was thrust into real minutes, and for the first time all season, he made them […]
‘January Juni’ turning Ohio State into a potentially dangerous bubble team
On October 20, when the Ohio State men’s basketball team hosted an open practice for fans to come out and watch the 127th team in program history, someone who works closely with the team said something to me that I, at the time, thought was absurd. “I think Juni (Mobley) is going to be our […]

Rink Roundup: Ohio State’s women’s hockey team continues to roll in 2026
Ohio State’s women’s hockey team has come out of the gates strong in 2026. With two wins last weekend over St. Thomas, the Buckeyes have now all eight of the games they have played in the new year. The last time Ohio State suffered a loss came in their final two games of 2025 when […]
Ohio State is about to put four players in the NFL Draft’s top 10
Ohio State has long been a pipeline to the first round of the NFL Draft. This year, it has a chance to do something rarer and far more difficult: Put four Buckeyes inside the top 10. It is an outcome that would normally sound hyperbolic. Top-10 selections are shaped by positional value, team need, and […]
New-look Wisconsin and its ability to upset Ohio State Thursday night
After the worst Big Ten loss of the season for No. 11 Ohio State women’s basketball, the Buckeyes finish January with the Wisconsin Badgers.
