NIL and Transfer Portal Havoc Continues, Several Would-Be NFL Buckeyes Remain Undecided on 2024

Another day, another member of the 2024 recruiting class lured away from Columbus by South Florida.

The last week's news cycle has hardly played out in kind fashion for Buckeye fans, as Ohio State learned yesterday that four-star running back Jordan Lyle has flipped his commitment to Miami. Lyle now becomes the second major member of OSU's next recruiting class to flip to the Hurricanes after five-star defensive tackle Justin Scott followed the same path in late November.

Johnny and George give their immediate reactions to the news, before branching the discussion into a larger conversation on how NIL now shapes talent available at every level of a major college football roster — including players that would only otherwise depart for the NFL.
