  • Black Stripe Removals, Number Changes, and More
    Mar 31 2026
    We’re back with our March offseason episode, and we’re talking about black stripes, jersey numbers, and coaching consultants. Yeah, it’s spring ball fever! Catch it!

    Ohio State had its annual Pro Day, and although we don’t pay tons of attention to it, you couldn’t miss the video of Arvell Reese doing Arvell Reese things. Carnell Tate doesn’t have to run a 40 for people to know he’s a good wide receiver worthy of a high draft selection spot. We touch on those and other things from Pro Day.

    There’s an unbelievable rate of players in spring ball this year as almost the entire class is already on campus. Some of those players are already making their mark, as two guys out of the transfer portal had their black stripes removed after Saturday’s practice. We discuss who, and why it’s a good sign for the roster heading into 2026.

    One of the annual things that takes some getting used to is figuring out who is who when departing players open up their jersey numbers for the generations of players behind them. We discuss the interesting case of Kenyatta Jackson, who has a new number, may be eyeing another number instead, and how that could have a ripple effect through the rest of the roster. Smart money is on wearing a number left behind by a star player if you want playing time. Hey, Ryan Day has a lot on his mind. Maybe he’ll send you onto the field thinking you’re Caleb Downs. Stranger things have happened.

    Somehow, we ended up on a tangent about Lou Holtz. I don’t know how these things happen.

    Day added a couple more coaching consultants since our last show, and to no one’s surprise, they have NFL experience. What does it mean for the Buckeyes? We discuss how nothing bad can happen. It can only good happen.

    NOTE: We are in our offseason schedule, which normally means we are back at least monthly, with the understanding that we may convene if we line up a guest, get some unexpectely big news, or just get a whole lot of noteworthy things to talk about. However, in this episode, we announced our intention to call it quits after our April show, which will feature news from the OSU Spring Game and the NFL Draft. It’s been our pleasure to bring you this show over the years and we’ve enjoyed discussing Ohio State football with each other and with you. But for reasons we go into during this show, it is time. We hope you’ll join us for next month’s finale.

    We would love to hear from you, so please reach out with your feedback and questions below in the comments section or ⁠send us an email⁠ to silverbulletspod@gmail.com. Any questions directed toward us will be answered on our final show.As always, thanks for listening!

  • Arthur Smith, 2026 Ohio State Schedule, and Transfer Portal Arrivals
    Feb 24 2026
    We’re back with our February offseason episode, which starts with a lengthy letter from a listener. We’re always happy to hear from our listeners, and in this case, the email prompted quite a bit of discussion about Ryan Day, Julian Sayin, and other aspects of Ohio State football. We love a good conversation starter!

    We also covered a whole lot of offseason topics, with one of the primary ones being the hiring of Arthur Smith as the team’s new offensive coordinator. We discussed how it may affect the passing game and help Bo Jackson and the running game in 2026. We still expect the deep ball to Jeremiah Smith to be part of the offense, but you may experience some new flavors this year.

    There are more than 300 players heading to the NFL Combine and 11 of them are Buckeyes. We talk about who is going and the entire pre-draft process. Our discussion of Ohio State’s 2026 schedule includes the complete slate of games, and this fall looks to be a true gauntlet for the men of the scarlet & gray. The Buckeyes will have their hands full, with a lot of difficult road tests in hostile environments, and a lot of top-quality teams. If Day can navigate those turbulent waters to another College Football Playoff appearance, his team will be battle tested.

    There are a lot of new arrivals in the transfer portal, and we give a rundown of who’s new. There are exciting new arrivals on offense, defense, and special teams, and it seems Day has prioritized that third phase of the game in this offseason.

    NOTE: We are in our offseason schedule, so we will be back at least monthly, with the understanding that we may convene if we line up a guest, get some unexpectely big news, or just get a whole lot of noteworthy things to talk about. If not, we’ll see you next month.

  • Cotton Bowl Rewind and Ohio State Transfer Portal News
    Jan 6 2026
    What began as a promising 2025 Ohio State football season and morphed into an apparent historic one came crashing to earth with back-to-back losses and a suddently completely overmatched offensive line. Julian Sayin spent his second straight game spending more time looking at guys trying to sack him than his options downfield. The Buckeyes started slowly, seemed to recover in the third quarter, and then faded again at the end, just when things were looking up.

    We break down a disappointing Cotton Bowl performance that added another layer to our lack of enthusiasm for New Year’s Eve games. We looked back at the key moments in Ohio State’s 24-14 loss to the Miami Hurricanes, checked in on our picks to click, and didn’t even bother to entertain who “won” in our game predictions.

    After our Cotton Bowl rewind, we looked at one former OSU offensive coordinator returning to the Big Ten — but not to Columbus — and Brian Hartline’s successor as the receivers coach for Ohio State. Where does the best school at producing NFL wide receivers turn? To the second-best school at producing wide receivers, naturally. But who is going to call the plays for those receivers? [thinking face emoji goes here]

    Finally, we looked at the insanity that is the transfer window. Seemingly everyone who didn’t start for Ohio State in 2025 is going in, which is weird when you consider how many starters are leaving, but who knows how it will all work out. There are some successful OSU transfer stories, and a bunch of not-so-good ones. But there aren’t just players leaving. Some are already arriving as well, and we discuss what is almost certainly an out-of-date list by the time you hear this podcast.

    NOTE: We are in our offseason schedule, so we will be back at least monthly, with the understanding that we may convene if we line up a guest, get some unexpectely big news, or just get a whole lot of noteworthy things to talk about. If not, we’ll see you next month.
