Just a couple weeks removed from the Ohio State win over Utah, Ballard has been called on by Lettermen Row's Tim May as a special guest for this week's episode of the Tim May Podcast.

Ballard was not just a pivotal force for the Buckeyes first Rose Bowl win since 1997 during that 2010 victory. He eventually would go on to have a four-year career in the NFL, highlighted by winning a Super Bowl with the New York Giants in 2011.

Ballard is an expert voice and analyst who knows the ins and outs of the game in addition to background in the infrastructure of a college football program. So he gives some valuable insight in this week's podcast episode as Ohio State is now in the midst of a crucial offseason for Buckeyes coach Ryan Day and his program.

That offseason has already been a busy one with several new defensive coaching hires, including the hiring of Tim Walton as cornerbacks coach and Perry Eliano as safeties coach for Ohio State. Those two will play a big role in the attempt to turn around the Buckeyes defense following poor season-long performances in both 2020 and 2021.

Tim is also joined on the show by Lettermen Row's Austin Ward to discuss those new hires and to break down more Buckeyes news, analysis and offseason discussions in another jam-packed edition of the Tim May Podcast.
