Well, that didn't take long. An Ohio judge gave an injunction to 15 Division I college basketball players on Thursday who are challenging the new "5-to-play-5 rule" in college athletics. This means, for now, they will all be able to play during the 2026-27 season. On today's show, Jonah Booker and Dave Biddle discuss that development, plus: * Who is the best defensive tackle on this year's Ohio State team? * Who will replace Caleb Downs this year for the Buckeyes? * What are the vibes regarding 5-star running back recruit David Gabriel Georges? That and much more is coming your way on the Friday 5ish.
