We had hoped to be breaking down our NCAA Tournament brackets and talking about the resumption of Ohio State spring practice on this week's episode of Real Pod Wednesdays. Unfortunately, that's not the case.
The coronavirus outbreak has shut down just about everything in the sports world, and we spend the first half of this week's episode talking about that. We reflect on a week unlike any that we've seen in our lifetimes, consider what we can take away from an Ohio State basketball season that ended much too abruptly and discuss how a lack of spring practices could affect the football Buckeyes.
Then, we shift gears to talk about the one thing that certainly hasn't been shut down – Ohio State football recruiting – after the Buckeyes landed four commitments in the last three days. Eleven Warriors recruiting analyst Zack Carpenter joins us to talk about the four newest future Buckeyes – Jakailin Johnson, Devonta Smith, Evan Pryor and Andre Turrentine – and who else could join what's already set to be a spectacular Ohio State recruiting class of 2021.
Finally, we wrap up this week's show by talking about the potential for Oklahoma graduate transfer running back Trey Sermon to also become a Buckeye and what Ohio State's 2020 running back rotation could look like with or without him.
