My book on the 2024 season, “Buckeye Brotherhood,” will be released in one week, so I will give one free copy per day, signed and personalized, to a new annual subscriber to my Substack. An annual subscription costs less than a quarter per day. I hope you think my OSU coverage is worth that.

ICYMI, I posted yesterday about how the 2022 recruiting class is finally making some noise and why it took so long. billrabinowitz.substack.com/p/for-osus-c...

For OSU's Class of 2022, its time has finally arrived

Only seven players remain on the roster from that recruiting class, and most are key players for the No. 1 Buckeyes

How I think Ohio State's game at Illinois might play out. billrabinowitz.substack.com/p/how-the-il...

How the Illinois game might play out

Bret Bielema has returned the Illini to relevance, but Ohio State matches up well against them.

I gave copies of "Buckeye Brotherhood" to Ohio State coaches today. They were all instrumental in being able to write the book I wanted to write. Ryan Day was particularly gracious when I gave him his copy. The book is officially available Oct. 21, but you can pre-order now.

DVR review of the Minnesota game

Sayin and Tate shine, as does the defense (again), and what was up with the penalty on Downs?

I'm about to start my DVR review of the Minnesota game on Substack. Hope you subscribe and follow along.

Bill Rabinowitz @billrabinowitz.bsky.social · 9d

I’m not sure the Bengals will win another game this year. No Burrow and a bad backup. No run game. A porous defense. General lack of football intelligence. I’d rather have Sayin than Browning.

Thoughts and observations from Ohio State's win over Minnesota

A suffocating defense, Sayin a Heisman candidate, and fighting complacency

Ohio State's defense continues to dominate. Is Julian Sayin a Heisman candidate? How OSU fights complacency. My observations on Substack is up.

It's always thrilling to see the rewards for months of work and angst. I got my shipment of books. The release date is Oct. 21. Founding members of my Substack will get them earlier, signed and mailed by me hopefully sometime next week. Thanks again to everyone who has supported me and this book.
