Matt Patricia is Back! JSN Gonna Get Paid 💰 Mylan Graham Reaction 👀 Bruce Thornton Ballin' | Script

On this week’s episode of THE SCRIPT, Cardale Jones, Beanie Wells, and host Dave Holmes unpack a loaded slate of storylines shaping both college football and the broader Ohio State sports world. The episode kicks off with breaking news involving Matt Patricia, who agreed to a new contract following a rockstar debut season as OSU DC. The guys debate what this means for Ohio State moving forward and how long Patricia might stay in Columbus as NFL interest continues to swirl. The conversation then shifts to Curt Cignetti and his latest contract extension with the Indiana Hoosiers. With Indiana revisiting and restructuring his deal multiple times in a remarkably short span, we take a closer look at Cignetti’s rapidly rising salary. Another major talking point centers on former five-star wide receiver Mylan Graham, who transferred to the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and is already generating headlines. Graham’s recent comments about the differences between programs sparked strong reactions online, and the guys break down how quickly narratives can spiral in the social media era. Cardale, no stranger to viral moments himself, shares firsthand perspective on how quotes can take on a life of their own and why context often gets lost in the noise. Jaxon Smith-Njigba is about to get paid, and he might even end up becoming the highest-paid wide receiver we’ve ever seen. With the Seahawks potentially being sold for record-breaking money, Seattle won’t exactly be hurting for cash. The guys look back at JSN’s days at Ohio State and talk through his rise to becoming one of the best receivers in the NFL. Basketball makes its way into the conversation as the focus turns to Bruce Thornton, who’s been ballin’ and keeping Ohio State in the fight throughout his career. With postseason hopes once again on the line, the guys talk through Thornton’s impressive run, all the accolades he’s stacked up, and the tough reality of never quite breaking through to an NCAA Tournament appearance. Beyond football and basketball, the show highlights Ohio State’s presence on the international stage, discussing Buckeye representation on the USA Women’s Hockey Team competing in Milan. The guys reflect on what it means for athletes to pursue gold and how winning at the Olympic level compares to other championships. Later on, with our friends at Buckeye Basement Solutions, we dive into Joey Aguilar’s eligibility situation and what it says about the bigger picture in college athletics. To wrap things up, the show closes on a more serious note with a tribute to Rondale Moore and Jelani Thurman’s mother — a conversation that opens the door to a broader discussion about mental health and the challenges of life beyond football. #sports #football #nfl #ohiostate Thank you to our sponsors: BUCKEYE BASEMENT SOLUTIONS: https://buckeyebasementsolutions.com/ If you live in Central Ohio and want to keep your basement dry and your foundation strong, call Buckeye Basement Solutions today at (614) 956-4592 or visit BuckeyeBasementSolutions.com New episodes of THE SCRIPT drop every Wednesday throughout the off-season.
