Look, we get it. Your days are busy and you don’t have time to read all of the stories and tweets from the three dozen websites dedicated to covering Ohio State athletics, or the 237 Buckeye beat writers churning out hot takes and #content on a daily basis. But that’s ok, that’s what your friends at Land-Grant Holy Land are here for.
Monday through Friday, we’ll be collecting all of the articles, tweets, features, interviews, videos, podcasts, memes, photos, and whatever else we stumble across on the interwebz and putting them in our daily “Why is this News?” article. That way, you’ll have a one-stop-shop for all of the most important Buckeye news, jokes, and analysis.
You’re welcome!
Buckeyes thank the brave

Speaking of which...
Bears QB Justin Fields has three of the top-five selling jerseys in the NFL. I’ll stick to my belief that the #Bears drafting him is the most exciting thing to happen in Chicago sports since the 2016 World Series. #TakeThat https://t.co/evEnT6MfK9
