On this week’s episode of THE SCRIPT: A Podcast on THE Ohio State Buckeyes, Cardale Jones, Beanie Wells, and host Dave Holmes break down everything happening in a busy Ohio State offseason. From coaching questions to the transfer portal, the national championship, and Buckeyes in the NFL. The show opens with a major talking point: Ohio State still doesn’t have an offensive coordinator. With expectations always sky-high in Columbus, the guys debate why the delay is puzzling and throw out familiar names they’d like to see leading the Buckeyes’ offense next season. Should fans be concerned? Let us know in the comments. Next, the conversation turns to the Buckeyes’ transfer portal approach. Beanie likes Ohio State’s shift toward prioritizing experience — similar to what Indiana has done successfully — while Cardale remains frustrated by the continued lack of offensive line additions. Is the OL a real concern heading into next year? The guys also give James Laurinaitis his flowers after his election to the College Football Hall of Fame and reveal a somewhat overlooked move: Ohio State has added a kicker via the transfer portal, including a breakdown of his stats. Later, Cardale defends Dante Moore’s decision to return to Oregon rather than enter the NFL Draft, pushing back on criticism surrounding the move. Thanks to our friends at Dr Pepper, the crew breaks down the national championship matchup between Indiana and Miami, one of the most entertaining title games in recent memory. The guys debate Curt Cignetti’s legacy, whether he’s already approaching all-time great status, and if Indiana’s rise is one of the greatest stories in sports history. With Indiana’s run as the backdrop, Cardale weighs in on the NFL Draft, saying that despite Fernando Mendoza’s talent, he would trade the No. 1 overall pick if he were the Raiders. Would you take Mendoza first overall? As the calendar flips to a new season, the guys take an early look at CFP title odds for next year, with Ohio State, Notre Dame, Indiana, Texas, and Oregon leading the way — and Cardale makes a surprising pick for the best team in the country. To close the show, and thanks to Buckeye Basement Solutions, Cardale and Beanie break down CJ Stroud’s recent struggles in New England, discussing why the former Buckeye star hasn’t looked the same since his rookie season.
