Something different on Buckeye Talk, as Doug Lesmerises is joined by Seth Richardson, the senior politics writer for cleveland.com, to talk about the intersection of football and politics. The fact that former Auburn, Texas Tech and Cincinnati coach Tommy Tuberville won the Republican Senate primary in Alabama last week got Doug thinking about the idea of a former Buckeye doing the same kind of thing in Ohio, so Doug and Seth covered these topics:What Jim Tressel's political career in Ohio could have been and the role he still plays in Ohio politicsThe political future of former OSU receiver Anthony Gonzalez, now a member of the U.S. House of RepresentativesThe way Gov. Mike DeWine and the state government tried to use football and other sports as a rallying cry to get people to wear masks before settling on Thursday's state-wide mask mandateDoug also started the podcast with two text subscriber questions, including one on whether Tressel's forced resignation was the best thing to happen to Ohio State football in the modern era.It's a different type of Buckeye Talk, but a bonus Saturday episode is coming with more hard-core football talk. Thanks for trying this one out.
