OSU's title odds continue to improve | Vibes on Trey McNutt? | Marv sued by Fanatics

Bucknuts Morning 5: An Ohio State athletics podcast

We bounce around to several Ohio State topics on today's show as Dan Rubin joins Dave Biddle. Items on the docket include:

* When we did the show last Monday, the Buckeyes' odds to win the 2024 national championship were +425. That was an improvement over the +500 odds that OSU had in late April. Well, now the odds have improved once again. Ohio State is now listed at +350 to win it all, just barely behind Georgia at +325. Then it's a big jump to the team with the third-lowest odds -- Texas -- at +750. Oregon is next at +900. We just find it interesting that the Buckeyes' odds improve seemingly each week, while the odds for the vast majority of other teams have held steady.

* The nation's No. 1 safety recruit, Trey McNutt, is going to take all of his official visits between May 31 and the end of June. What are our vibes as far as the Buckeyes landing McNutt?

* Any concern that Ohio State might lose the nation's No. 2 corner, Na'eem Offord? Or is he just having some fun with the process and there is nothing to worry about here?

* Here is one we didn't expect to see: Fanatics is suing Marvin Harrison Jr., claiming he breached a "term sheet" agreement last year.

* Mike Conley Jr. continues to have a very good -- and frankly underrated -- NBA career. Conley, 36, is the starting point guard of the Minnesota Timberwolves, who upset the defending NBA champion Denver Nuggets in Game 7 of the Western Conference semifinals last night. It was 17 years ago when Conley helped lead the Buckeyes to the 2007 national championship game.

All of that and more is coming your way on the Monday 5ish.
