I will post a story tomorrow morning that I think Ohio State fans will be interested in. Ryan Day discussed a topic in my book that he has mostly avoided regarding Michigan. It's for paid subscribers to my Substack, which you can access here: bit.ly/43NPXoz

Ohio State fans, I have a question for you. If you had to choose, which would you prefer - a win over Michigan on Saturday or repeating as national champion? Go to my Substack to participate in the poll. It's open to everyone, not just subscribers. The link is below.

I have a "Buckeye Brotherhood" book signing tomorrow (Sunday) at the Lennox Barnes & Noble bookstore. The store has assured me it has ordered enough hardcover books for the signing, but pretty soon only paperback versions will be available. I'd love to see you there.

I'm looking forward tonight to my book signing at The Book Loft in German Village tonight. I'm happy to answer questions and sign and personalize any books. www.bookloft.com/event/book-l...

My DVR review of the Ohio State-UCLA game is available for subscribers on my Substack. Link is below.

Ready for a DVR review of the Ohio State-UCLA review? Follow along on Substack, please. My Substack info is on my profile.

I have a few public book signings/talks for "Buckeye Brotherhood" this week. Tuesday night, I'll be at the famous Book Loft in German Village. Thursday night, I'll be in Dayton at the Boonshoft Center for Jewish Culture and Education. On Sunday from 2-4, I'll be at the Lennox Barnes & Noble.

Ready for a DVR review of the Ohio State-Purdue game? I'm about to start it on Substack. Please subscribe and follow along. (Subscribers will get it in one file after I'm done.)

My first public book signing for "Buckeye Brotherhood" is at 7 tomorrow night at Gramercy Books in Bexley. My former Dispatch colleague Rob Oller will moderate the talk. I'm excited to share some of the many stories that give "Buckeye Brotherhood" its heart. gramercybooksbexley.com/event/2025-1...

I'm at Ross-Ade Stadium in West Lafayette for what I'm sure will be a scintillating game between Ohio State and Purdue. Follow along on my Substack, please.

If you want a hardcover book, I will sell one to you, personalized. I'm thinking about offering them to paid annual subscribers of my Substack, but I'm not sure how many books I will have in my personal supply. As far as another hardcover printing, I don't know if that will happen.

I just talked to my publisher. Good news. A paperback version of "Buckeye Brotherhood" will be published on Nov. 18 and is available for pre-order on Amazon now. The publisher has sold out of the first printing of the hardcover version.

Julian Sayin is on pace to set the NCAA completion-percentage record. I decided to analyze his 42 non-completions. Even many of them were impressive. billrabinowitz.substack.com/p/wait-julia...

I'm about to start my DVR review of the Ohio State-Penn State game on my Substack chat. I invite you to subscribe if you haven't and follow along. Happy to get comments along the way.

I've got a thread up on my Substack for updates throughout the Ohio State-Penn State game. If you haven't subscribed yet, I'd be grateful if you do.

Thank you to my former employer for excerpting the Michigan aftermath chapter of "Buckeye Brotherhood." It's one of the pivotal chapters and goes deep into the Day family relationship. The basketball and measuring anecdotes cracked me up when they told me about them. www.dispatch.com/story/sports...

I planned to do this earlier in the week but have been sidetracked by book stuff. Instead of a full DVR review of the Wisconsin game - who wants that? - I will look at the subpar run plays by OSU's offense and try to dissect what went wrong. Follow along on my Substack.

I hoped people would buy and enjoy "Buckeye Brotherhood." But I never expected the book to become the No. 1 football book on Amazon or rank 517th among all books. It blows my mind, truthfully. Thanks to everyone who has bought the book. And please become a paying subscriber to my Substack.

Even skeletons will enjoy it?

I will be on “All Sides with Amy Juravich” on WOSU (89.7) in a few minutes to discuss “Buckeye Brotherhood” as part of the station’s fundraising drive. The book is officially out today.

Thank you to Jerod Smalley and NBC4 for inviting me on to discuss my book on the 2024 OSU championship season, "Buckeye Brotherhood," which will be released Tuesday. I am giving away one book today and tomorrow to paying annual subscribers of my Substack. youtu.be/7ZEclezejvY?...

The student section 7 minutes before kickoff. Sad.

As I’ve said before other Ohio State road games, if you’re wondering whether I would cover OSU away from the Shoe, hell yes. But I can only do it with your support. Thank you to my paid subscribers.

Ryan Day's weekly press conference will start any minute. Follow along on my Substack, please.

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.

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.

Just finished my DVR review of the Minnesota game on Substack.

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

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.

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

ICYMI on Friday. My story on Billy Price's OSU Hall of Fame induction and what it means to him. I took the paywall down on my Substack for this one. If you like stories like this, please consider becoming a paying subscriber. Thanks.

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.

I’ve been asked if I’d be in Seattle for the Ohio State-Washington game now that I’m not with the Dispatch and have to pay my way. My answer: Hell, yes. I vowed to you that I would cover the Buckeyes as well or better than ever. Please subscribe so I can keep doing this for you.

I talked with fellow Substacker Christian Caple, who covers the Washington Huskies, to Ohio State's highly intriguing game this week in Seattle.

In only two games, Ohio State running back Bo Jackson has already made a splash. Here's my profile of the freshman. Yes, it's behind a paywall. I finally put it up last night. I want to write stories worth paying for, and I think this one is. substack.com/home/post/p-...
