Four-star 2026 TE Corbyn Fordham gives Ohio State a Thanksgiving day commit.
Bruce Feldman from The Athletic has an interesting article about TTUN’s coaching staff, particularly the 2021 hire of Biff Poggi. According to their former DC Mike Macdonald, Poggi is Harbaugh’s “consigliere” - supposedly one of the few coaches willing to challenge Jim and not fall in line as a Yes Man.
Hilariously, Poggi claims one of the biggest improvements has come from creating more space between Jim and his coordinators. From the article:
“Look, Jim,” Poggi told him. “Stay out of the offensive and defensive rooms. Don’t get involved with your coordinators. Let me sit in there and be involved with them and I can give you the information that you need.”
Together, it sounds like a strange coaching system, and it is telling that both coordinators ran for the door after the 2021 season. TTUN hasn’t faced a stiff challenge apart from PSU this season, and it’ll be interesting to see how this coaching staff handles any upcoming adversity.

Today, The Athletic reports that Biff is headed to Charlotte as the new head coach - https://theathletic.com/3900757/2022/11/15/biff-poggi-michigan-charlotte/. Can't blame a guy for cashing in and getting his own team to run.
