The United States Football League is back and I have never been more excited. If you are not familiar with the greatness that was the USFL, please take a second to dive into the history. The USFL has had some exciting talent in its former glory including Steve Young, Herschel Walker, and Reggie White. They all shined before heading to the NFL, but like most leagues, they could not compete with the financial juggernaut that is the NFL.

If you are curious which former Ohio State players shined in the original version of the league, have no fear that information is here. Now, it is highly unlikely that this league will be as successful as the original based purely on the money available, but hey I have no problem watching any kind of football year-round. The following are five former Buckeyes that could hear their name called during the USFL draft.

It is not too often we discuss some Indoor Football League action on this site, but when two former five-star recruits make a splash we have to dive in! With the Arena Football League officially dead and gone, the IFL is the new big man on campus as far as fast paced indoor action goes.

The IFL season is officially in the books and their free agency period has started. For those that are not too familiar with the league there is a certain amount of star power playing such as Nate Davis from Ball State, former Buckeye Verlon Reed and former “Last Chance U” star, Malik Henry.

Now that you know a tad bit more about the IFL, it is time to see what these two surprising former Ohio State recruits are up to and where we can watch them this spring.
