MARCUS FAKATOU!, PRESEASON ALL-AMERICANS / Ohio State Buckeyes LIVE 376
<p><strong>Episode Notes: Ohio State Buckeyes LIVE 376</strong> <strong>MARCUS FAKATOU!, PRESEASON ALL-AMERICANS</strong> <strong>Hosts:</strong> Mark Rogers (Voice of College Football), Steve Helwagen (Bucknuts247), Tony Gerdeman (Buckeye Insiders / Buckeye Weekly)</p> <h3>Key Topics & Summary</h3> <p>The episode focuses on <strong>Ohio State football recruiting momentum</strong> (especially recent commits like Jed Harrison and Marcus Fakato), <strong>preseason All-American selections</strong> from Athlon Sports, historical Buckeye team greatness, and broader Big Ten outlook.</p> <h4>1. Recruiting Updates</h4> <ul> <li><strong>Jed Harrison (WR, 2027 class)</strong>: Younger brother of Marvin Harrison Jr. Committed to Ohio State. Expected but not guaranteed after Brian Hartline’s departure. Strong relationships with Cortez Hankton and Devin Jordan helped secure him. Described as fast, agile, good after the catch, smart route-runner; projects as a high-value, scheme-versatile player (6'1"-6'2"). Not as tall as Marvin but plays bigger with leaping ability.</li> <li><strong>Recent Commit Run</strong>: 5 commitments in ~10 days (as of late June). Includes: <ul> <li>Austin Miller (WR, 2029)</li> <li>Jordan Donahue (WR, 2027)</li> <li>Caden Moss (OT, 2027)</li> <li><strong>Marcus Fakato</strong> (DL, 2027): 6'6", 275 lbs, #45 nationally. Major get from California (Sierra Canyon). Highlighted for bolstering the defensive line.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Context: Ohio State maintaining elite WR recruiting depth post-Hartline. NIL realities mean more balanced classes (top-tier + developmental pieces). Quarterback play and development remain key attractors.</li> </ul> <h4>2. Preseason All-Americans (Athlon Sports Focus)</h4> <ul> <li><strong>Offense</strong>: <ul> <li>Jeremiah Smith: Consensus 1st-team All-American (slam dunk).</li> <li>Julian Sayin (QB): 2nd-team. Praised for 2024 production and completion % record in Big Ten, but hosts note tough competition (Arch Manning, others). Projection-heavy for some QBs.</li> </ul> </li> <li><strong>Defense</strong>: Limited Buckeye presence early in rankings. Hosts expect multiple OSU defenders (e.g., Earl Little on some 4th teams, potential for Jalen McClain, Devin Sanchez, Kenyatta Jackson, etc.) to rise as season progresses. Caden Curry, Arvell Reese, etc., cited as recent breakout examples.</li> <li><strong>Other Notes</strong>: Tight end requirements in selections; discussion of projection vs. production (e.g., Arch Manning hype).</li> </ul> <h4>3. Historical Ohio State Teams Discussion</h4> <ul> <li>Columbus Dispatch gallery on greatest OSU teams sparked debate.</li> <li>Strong cases for: <ul> <li><strong>2024 team</strong>: Dominant playoff run, Will Howard’s dual-threat grit + efficiency.</li> <li>2019, 2002/2003, 1995/1996/1998 teams.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Themes: Depth, quarterback play, overcoming adversity, and how eras/styles compare.</li> </ul> <h4>4. Big Ten Outlook & Predictions</h4> <ul> <li>Athlon projected order: Ohio State, Indiana, Oregon, Michigan, USC, Washington, Penn State, etc.</li> <li>Hosts discuss potential "plus/minus 3 wins" teams (conservative magazine projections).</li> <li>Standouts: Wisconsin (new AD, QB health), UCLA (new coach improvement), Illinois, Nebraska, Minnesota.</li> <li>General view: Upper crust strong; surprises inevitable in middle tier. PJ Fleck/Iowa noted for consistent bowl success.</li> </ul> <h4>5. Other Segments</h4> <ul> <li>Steve recovering from minor surgery (Inspire device) but still contributing.</li> <li>Promotions: Phil Steele upcoming interview; Buckeye Insiders site launch (sign up for notifications); regular Buckeye Weekly content.</li> <li>Listener engagement: Super Chats, comments encouraged.</li> </ul> <h3>Notable Quotes / Takeaways</h3> <ul> <li>On Jed Harrison: “No downside… extremely valuable with the skill set and his knowledge base.”</li> <li>On recruiting sustainability: “You can’t sign three five-stars… anymore because of the way NIL is set up.”</li> <li>On 2024 team: “Hard to beat… Will Howard had the best of Craig Krenzel in him but could also throw the ball well.”</li> <li>Tone: Optimistic on OSU’s current trajectory, realistic about challenges and historical context.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Overall Vibe</strong>: Informative, conversational Buckeye-centric show blending timely recruiting news, preseason analysis, and fan nostalgia. Strong focus on maintaining elite talent pipelines on both sides of the ball.</p> <p>Great episode for fans tracking 2027 class and preseason hype. Next show teased for the following Wednesday.</p><br/> <p>Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Marcus Fakatou), class outlook, and wishlist targets.

Early chit-chat covers personal life (Brad moving). Tone is optimistic about Ohio State's trenches dominance and development potential.</p> <p><strong>Overall Class Snapshot (per discussion):</strong></p> <ul> <li>~18 commits so far.</li> <li>2 five-stars, 12 four-stars.</li> <li>Emphasis on blue-chip ratio and trenches (OL/DL).</li> <li>Projected final size: ~22-24 commits, leaving room for transfers/flips.</li> </ul> <h3>Timestamped Key Segments</h3> <ul> <li><strong>00:00 - 00:23:</strong> Intro, greetings, weekend recap (Brad's moving struggles).</li> <li><strong>~00:38 - 00:52:</strong> Transition to recruiting rankings. Ohio State #5 (behind Texas A&M, Notre Dame, Miami, Oklahoma).</li> <li><strong>~00:52 - 00:06:00+:</strong> Deep dive on Marcus Fakatou (new commit) and other trenches commits.</li> <li><strong>~06:00+:</strong> DJ Jacobs (#1 recruit nationally), Kaden Moss (OL comparison to Paris Johnson).</li> <li><strong>~09:00+:</strong> Prince Goldsby (LB), wide receivers (Jordan DeNovo, Jameer Brown).</li> <li><strong>~11:00+:</strong> Corners (Jaden Carey, Deonte Malone).</li> <li><strong>~15:00+:</strong> Offensive line excitement (Jimmy Callis, etc.).</li> <li><strong>~18:00+:</strong> Wishlist targets (Carlos May, David Gabriel Georges/RB).</li> <li><strong>~22:00+:</strong> Class size, NIL/re-recruiting realities, QB class softness.</li> <li><strong>~33:00+:</strong> Future contributors (year 1-2 projections).</li> <li><strong>~45:00+:</strong> FanDuel futures discussion (Buckeyes to CFB semifinals).</li> <li><strong>~57:00+:</strong> Wrap-up, calls to action.</li> </ul> <h3>Spotlight: Marcus Fakitua (Fakatou) – 2027 Commit</h3> <p>The hosts were <strong>most excited</strong> about this recent commit and spent significant time breaking down his tape and potential.</p> <p><strong>Key Attributes Highlighted:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Size: 6'7", ~270 lbs, 18 years old, frame to add significant weight (easy to 290-305+).</li> <li>Athleticism: Moves like a smaller player; quick off the ball, great feet, coordination, bend, and closing speed to the ball.</li> <li>Technique: Strong hands, good inside/outside moves, disrupts plays.</li> <li>Versatility: Could stay at DE/edge or move inside to 3-tech DT. Compared to Edrick Houston (tweener body).</li> <li>High school dominance: "Monster" vs. smaller OL; unfair physical advantage but still technically sound.</li> <li>Upside: Hybrid lineman who can "plug and play" anywhere; scary disruptor with NFL traits.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Quotes:</strong></p> <ul> <li>"His size is just exciting... He moves good. He's fast." (Denzel)</li> <li>"For 270-275, six-seven, his feet look great... gets around the corner really nice."</li> <li>"He moves like he's smaller and like he's been six-seven his whole life. His coordination is great... flies to the ball."</li> <li>"I love these kind of hybrid type linemen where you can kind of plug and play them anywhere."</li> </ul> <p><strong>Hosts' Take:</strong> High excitement. Expect him to develop quickly into a rotational or starting contributor. Fits Ohio State's trenches rebuild emphasis.</p> <h3>Other Notable Recruits Discussed</h3> <ul> <li><strong>DJ Jacobs</strong> (Top recruit, edge/DL): "Man playing with boys." Elite first step, bend, moves, strength. Seen as a potential year-1 contributor.</li> <li><strong>Kaden Moss</strong> (OL): Big, nasty, mover; Paris Johnson comp; borderline 5-star potential. Ohio State went hard after him.</li> <li><strong>Prince Goldsby</strong> (LB): Fast off the edge, great blitz angles, tackler; 6'3" 210+ frame. Film standout but LB room is deep.</li> <li><strong>Jameer Brown</strong> (WR): Track speed, shifty, high-points ball well; punt/kick return potential. Long-time commit.</li> <li><strong>Jordan DeNovo</strong> (WR): Massive 6'4" 184+; big-bodied target.</li> <li><strong>Jaden Carey</strong> (CB): Technically sound, smaller frame (~5'11"); smart, uses sideline/body well.</li> <li><strong>Deonte Malone</strong> (Athlete): Strong at WR, average at CB; speed and physicality; potential position switch.</li> <li><strong>Jimmy Callis</strong> (OL): 6'6" big frame, great feet, nasty; redshirt candidate with high upside.</li> <li>Others: Wyatt Smith, Angelo Smith (JJ's brother), etc.</li> </ul> <h3>Wishlist & Targets</h3> <ul> <li><strong>Carlos May</strong> (DL): Would make D-line class "unstoppable" with multiple top-100 players.</li> <li><strong>David Gabriel Georges</strong> (RB): Quinshawn Judkins-like prototype; vision, burst, friend of commit.</li> <li>Others mentioned: Need for another high-end QB, top-10/15 WR or CB via flip.</li> </ul> <h3>Broader Insights & Analysis</h3> <ul> <li><strong>Trenches Focus:</strong> Ohio State prioritizing OL/DL "nasty" and versatile players to dominate the line of scrimmage.</li> <li><strong>Class Outlook:</strong> Strong but "soft" buzz due to early commits and lack of a flashy QB; still high-quality.</li> <li><strong>NIL/Portal Realities:</strong> Discussion on re-recruiting costs, smaller classes ahead, preference for high-floor NFL-ceiling guys over projects. Loyalty higher in trenches.</li> <li><strong>Development:</strong> Excitement for year-1/2 contributors like Fakitua, Jacobs, Goldsby, Brown.</li> <li><strong>Futures Bet:</strong> Hosts like Buckeyes to reach CFB semifinals (+140 on FanDuel) despite tough schedule.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Key Takeaway:</strong> Ohio State's 2027 class is building a formidable trenches foundation with high-upside athletes like Fakitua. Emphasis on physical, technical, versatile players who fit Ryan Day's vision.</p><br/> <p>Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
