• Joe Bob Clements is reportedly moving over to the linebackers coach opening, leaving behind the defensive line title

• Fun story here on the addition of the Tulsa area offensive lineman to the 2022 class, landing where he always wanted to

• Derek Mason’s hiring says something about the desirability of the OSU defensive coordinator opening

• This article had great context on why OSU losing 12 players to the portal isn’t that crazy:

No, I chalk up OSU’s “migration” to the business of college football in 2022. That simple.

Is 12 a high number of outgoing transfers? Gosh yes.

It that number unique to Gundy? Gosh no.

• John Smith’s Cowboys fell in the top-ten in the wrestling rankings after back-to-back losses

• Here’s an honest take on Emmanuel Ogbah’s impending free agency:

Ogbah never really panned out for the Browns, but in Miami, he showed he could be a good player up front. He has had back-to-back seasons with 60 or more pressures, racked up 56 stops over the last two years and is coming off a career-high 77.0 PFF grade.

Ogbah may now be able to settle into a role as a valuable starter whose reputation lags behind his play, given what expectations were at draft time.
