Cardale Jones, Beanie Wells and Dave Holmes return with a new episode of The Script: A Podcast on the Ohio State Buckeyes. Training camp is in full swing in Columbus, and the quarterback battle is heating up. Many believe it’s Julian Sayin’s job to lose, but Lincoln Kienholz — recently named an Iron Buckeye for his offseason work — is making things interesting. Is there a real competition, or is it all for show? The guys break it down along with other major camp headlines. Later, they discuss some of the biggest athletic freaks to ever wear the scarlet and gray. Caleb Downs is already drawing NFL comparisons, but is it too soon to call him a top-five safety at the next level? Beanie and Cardale respectively push back on the hype while sharing stories about the most explosive athletes they ever played with — including a few names that could’ve gone pro straight out of high school. Jeremiah Smith tops Bruce Feldman’s annual Freaks List, and the crew agrees: he might be ready for the NFL right now. Plus, Cardale and Beanie reflect on the Buckeyes who would’ve thrived in the league if NCAA rules didn’t keep them in school. With help from our partners at Prime Sportsbook, the team looks at Michigan’s 8.5-win total and whether the Wolverines are primed for another step back. Spoiler: Beanie’s taking the under. Finally, we dive into the Terry McLaurin situation in Washington. After requesting a trade, is McLaurin making the right move at this stage in his career? The guys weigh in with support from Buckeye Basement Solutions.
