About
Welcome to Buckeye Focused presented and produced by SportsEpreneur! The newest Buckeye football podcast. This one features Buckeye, Nate Oliver!
It’s Buckeye season. We have to talk about it!
A buckeye here and a buckeye there spawned this podcast. But these conversations go way beyond football and buckeyes. We’ve always said “sports bring people together” and this Buckeye Focused podcast proves that.
Featuring:
Nate Oliver – played for the Buckeyes mostly under Coach Jim Tressel between 2007-2011. Nate is a recent Director of Keith B. Key Buckeye Social Entrepreneurship Program at The Ohio State University.
Eric Kasimov – the founder of KazSource, Inc, a dynamic company managing a portfolio of brands and projects in the areas of content, podcasting, production, sports, mental health, insurance, and ventures. This includes the producer of this podcast and the digital media sports brand, SportsE+.
This podcast is not here to replace Buckeye Talk by Cleveland.com, Menace2Sports with Zach Smith, Morning Five by Bucknuts, Letterman Live, and the many other Buckeye-related podcasts. This podcast exists to allow a Buckeye like you listen in to a conversation featuring a former Buckeye and his co-host talking football. But while football and some buckeyes brought us together…these conversations run deep.
Topics covered include buckeye stories, lessons learned on and off the field, stories of failure and success, insights as to what is going on with the program, game previews, game recaps, player insights, and topics in and around the world of college football like the college football playoff, games around the country, the Big Ten, NIL, and of course players, fans, and media popping off on social media trying to get those clicks. We call it out. Buckeye Focused.
