Sonny Styles Steals the NFL Combine Show with Record-Breaking Vertical

Ohio State linebacker Sonny Styles stole the night at the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, posting a 43.5 inch vertical the best for a player of his size since 2003, plus a 6 foot 5 inch, 244 pound frame, an 11 foot 2 inch broad jump and a 4.46 second 40 yard dash to boost his draft stock, while other linebackers and defensive linemen impressed (Jacob Rodriguez, Zane Durant, George Gumbs Jr, DeMonte Capehart, Romello Height, Kyle Louis) and a few like Kayden McDonald and Deontae Lawson slipped.

Iowa shells OSU, gutting Buckeyes’ NCAA hopes with blowout

Ohio State’s NCAA tournament hopes took a major hit with a 74-57 loss at Iowa, drowning in a 21-1 run that followed an early 14-2 surge by OSU and left the Buckeyes staring at a 37-23 halftime deficit. Iowa’s Bennett Stirtz (22) and Alvaro Folgueiras (20) led the scoring on a night Ohio State couldn’t muster consistency as Bruce Thornton was held to 10 and Mobley (15) and Royal (16) paced the Scarlet and Gray. The loss drops OSU to 17-11 (9-8 Big Ten) and sets up a must-win clash with No. 8 Purdue as they chase an at-large bid, with questions looming after back-to-back defeats.

Buckeyes Could Lead NFL Draft with Four Players in Top Seven, Kiper Predicts

Mel Kiper Jr.’s ESPN mock draft has four Ohio State players projected in the top seven picks—Caleb Downs to the Jets at No. 2, Arvell Reese to the Titans at No. 4, Carnell Tate to the Browns at No. 6, and Sonny Styles to the Commanders at No. 7—an unprecedented four first-round selections from one school. The mock also includes Kayden McDonald at No. 26 to the Bears. If this holds, OSU would rewrite the record for most first-round picks from a single program in a single draft; the Buckeyes’ prospects will be in Indianapolis for the NFL Scouting Combine week.

Thornton joins OSU’s 2,000-point club with key 27-point night

Bruce Thornton scored 27 points to reach 2,000 career points, becoming the third player in Ohio State history to hit the milestone and moving to No. 3 on the all-time OSU scoring list with 2,005 points. The Buckeyes defeated No. 24 Wisconsin 86-69 for their first ranked-win of the year, and Thornton, a four-time captain, is six points behind Herb Williams for second and 92 short of Dennis Hopson’s school record of 2,096.

Virginia’s late burst sinks Ohio State as Thornton pours in 28

Bruce Thornton scored 28 for Ohio State, but the Buckeyes couldn’t close in the final 10 minutes, allowing No. 15 Virginia to win 70-66. Amare Bynum added 15 for OSU, while Ugonna Onyenso anchored Virginia with 8 points, 10 rebounds and 4 blocks. OSU, now 16-9 (8-6 Big Ten), sees its late-season push stymied as the offense went cold late; next up is a rematch with Wisconsin.

OSU Buckeyes Shorthanded as Tilly and Cupps Sit Against Penn State

Ohio State will be severely short-handed for its Big Ten matchup with Penn State, with starting center Christoph Tilly and guard Gabe Cupps out, and reserve wing Mathieu Grujicic sidelined. Ivan Njegovan is expected to start at center in Tilly’s absence, while Colin White could move into the sixth-man role, with Devin Royal shifting positions as needed; Amare Bynum could see time at small-ball center. Penn State enters as a vulnerable opponent, sitting 0-8 in conference play, but the Buckeyes aren’t at full strength either. Tipoff is at 7 p.m. on FS1.

Mobley's 28-Point Night Fuels Ohio State Past UCLA 86-74

John Mobley Jr. poured in a career-high 28 points, including six 3-pointers, to lift Ohio State to an 86-74 win over UCLA. Mobley, supported by Bruce Thornton (22) and Devin Royal (21), sparked a decisive 12-0 run to start the second half as the Buckeyes built and protected a double-digit lead for the final 18:13. UCLA’s Tyler Bilodeau led his team with 30, but Ohio State (12-5, 4-3 Big Ten) pulled away and will face Minnesota next Tuesday on BTN.

Buckeyes land six in transfer portal haul, including Alabama duo and two safeties

Ohio State bolstered its 2026 roster by adding six transfer portal players—two safeties (Earl Little Jr., Terry Moore), two Alabama defensive linemen (Qua Russaw, James Smith), a quarterback (Justyn Martin from Maryland) and a tight end (Hunter Welcing from Northwestern)—as coach Ryan Day sought to fill holes and add experience after a flurry of departures.

Buckeyes Still Chasing Key Gaps 10 Days Into Portal Season

Ten days into the transfer portal, Ohio State has added seven players but still has major gaps for 2026: no proven kicker, thin cornerback and defensive-end depth, and ongoing needs at quarterback and running back. The Buckeyes have added safeties Earl Little Jr. and Terry Moore and DT John Walker, but there are no clear targets at cornerback after missing on Kayin Lee and La’Khi Roland, and edge depth remains thin. They’re also weighing options at WR and TE, with quarterback depth being built through visits by Justyn Martin and Ryan Staub, while punter and long snapper depth are unsettled and seven scholarships remain open after losing 28 players. OSU’s patient portal approach continues, but more high-level transfers look likely before fall.
