A variety of Buckeyes met with the media on Wednesday at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center, as two coaches and four players held individual press conferences.

Justin Frye and Tim Walton represented Ryan Day's staff on the indoor practice field, while Emeka Egbuka, Jordan Hancock, Tommy Eichenberg and Gee Scott Jr. spoke for the players. The six Buckeyes broke down the team's collective performances in the first two weeks of the 2023 season and how the program is preparing for its Week 3 matchup with Western Kentucky on Saturday.

Among the many topics discussed in the interviews, Frye mentioned the need for consistency on Ohio State's offensive line, Egbuka shared his confidence in quarterback Kyle McCord and Eichenberg expects the Buckeyes' defensive ends to make an impact against the Hilltoppers.
