VISIT TheBuckeyeCast.com https://thebuckeyecast.com/ Ohio State enters the January transfer portal window with major roster decisions ahead — and national title expectations aren't going anywhere. Today on the Daily Buckeye Blitz, we break down the true portal needs for the 2026 Buckeyes: from finding a star defensive tackle and edge rusher, to rebuilding parts of the secondary, to securing a reliable kicker after this season's special teams failures. We cover every position group, their need level, and what Ryan Day and Mark Pantoni MUST target once the portal opens on January 2. Topics include: • Why defensive line is the biggest emergency on the roster • Whether OSU needs a veteran quarterback if attrition hits • Bo Jackson + Isaiah West → is RB still a portal need? • WR & TE depth with Chris Henry Jr. arriving • The right guard question and OL continuity • Secondary rebuild: safety + cornerback decisions • Special teams overhaul — kicker & punter required • Scholarship grid implications for 2026 If you want the realistic, no-BS look at Ohio State's portal strategy, this is the episode.
