  • Michigan Fan

    The title says it all. And everything one would infer about a Michigan fan’s perspective of OSU applies. I hate them but the program is a model of sustained excellence. My respect for Stephen elevated when he questioned the hiring of Matt Patricia (also a Lions fan). Keep the honesty 💯 and I’ll keep listening.

It’s an alright podcast for news and coverage but there are much better pods if your looking for people too enjoy listening too, (such as Buckeye Huddle) Buckeye talk does have a text subscription service that I have been apart of for years and It’s definitely worth it, so I would suggest subs... more

Ohio State's College Football Playoff seed and what's up with Brian Hartline
