COLUMBUS — The offseason is beginning to wind down for Ohio State, as the Buckeyes are gearing up for another crack at the College Football Playoff.

But that doesn’t mean the Tim May Podcast has to turn its full focus onto the 2022 Ohio State football program just yet. No, Tim is back with a perfect offseason episode that blends college football and country music.

Tim welcomes Evan Blankenship, who played football for the Buckeyes from 2007 to 2011 before forming the band North to Nashville. Blankenship moved to Nashville after his playing career before moving back to Columbus in 2017. Since then, his music career has taken off, and his band often opens for big names in country music.

Evan and Tim have a multi-layered conversation about football, music, life and the state of the Buckeyes football program.
