THE SCRIPT: A Podcast on THE Ohio State Buckeyes

As Cardale Jones once famously said: “We ain’t come here to play school.” We came here to talk ball! Welcome to THE SCRIPT. Dave Holmes, Chris “Beanie” Wells, and Cardale Jones will guide you through the highs, lows, and everything in between on the Ohio State Buckeyes, the Big Ten, and the ever-changing world of college athletics. Holmes, 27 time Emmy-winning Sports Director at ABC6/Fox28, brings you insider access with authority and depth. Wells, 2x Team MVP and one of the most dominant running backs in Big Ten history, delivers insights from a player who lived the grind during the “Tressel Ball” era. And Jones, the third-string quarterback turned National Champion, shoots off unfiltered takes with a swagger that has cemented him a Buckeye legend. From Ryan Day’s quest for another title to locker room stories, former player perspectives, and everything happening in Columbus and at the ‘Shoe, no other show brings you closer to the program.
