If you're a draft-eligible elite college football player, it's almost Christmas: The NFL Draft gets underway Thursday night! Ohio State is expected to have two wide receivers drafted in the first round for the first time since 2007, with at least a half-dozen Buckeyes likely to hear their name called over the course of the three-day extravaganza.

The Dubcast takes this opportunity to talk about the Buckeyes' draft prospects and where they might end up in The League... and hopes you'll share your draft #takes, too!

Then, we'll talk about the chaos of modern college basketball. From NIL to the transfer portal, blue blood coaches are pulling the ripcord and getting out of Dodge. How will Thad Matta handle this new wild, wild west now that he's back on the court?

Plus, Ask Us Anything, which you can do at dubcast@elevenwarriors.com, wants to know who we think is the greatest Avenger, grammatical things that grind our gears, and the wildest things on our bucket lists.


RUN OF THE SHOW

63:40 Buckshots: Ohio State's football team has a couple more names hit the transfer portal, some former Buckeyes have found their new homes out of the portal, and C.J. Stroud is the early Heisman favorite.


And that'll do it! Thanks as always to you for listening, Travis for our cool logo, and to the Dry Goods store for existing and having all sorts of cool things for you to buy. See you next week!
