Members of the media will get their first opportunity to watch and report on this year's Buckeyes in action on Tuesday morning, when Ohio State will open a portion of its practice to the media.

According to a media advisory released Monday by Ohio State, the initial warm-up period and the first three periods of practice at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center will be open to the media on Tuesday morning.

The Big Ten Network's "Bus Tour" is also scheduled to broadcast from Ohio State's practice on Tuesday.

Originally, Ohio State planned to open its first practice of fall camp on Friday to the media for the same allotted viewing window. The Buckeyes closed that practice, however, as it came just two days after Urban Meyer was placed on paid administrative leave.

Ohio State coaches and players will remain unavailable for interviews until further notice.

"We are unable to comment on the details of the investigation into Coach Meyer being directed by the independent working group of the Board of Trustees," read a statement from the university. "The university is committed to supporting our student-athletes as they prepare for the upcoming semester."
