Former Ohio State punter joining parade of ex-Buckeye transfers in SEC
COLUMBUS, Ohio — Jesse Mirco’s hang time in the transfer portal turned out to be brief, and like many Ohio State football transfers, the punter is headed to the SEC.
Mirco announced his commitment to Vanderbilt on Wednesday. He entered his name in the NCAA transfer portal one day after his biggest punting performance of the season in a 14-3 Cotton Bowl loss to Missouri.
Latest Ohio State Buckeyes news
Vanderbilt has won more than three games only once since 2018. It has not posted a winning season since 2013.
However, special teams has been one of the Commodores’ occasional bright spots. When associate head coach and special teams coordinator Justin Lustig was at Syracuse, he coached Andre Szmyt, who won the 2018 Lou Groza Award. Vanderbilt’s Matthew Hayball was a finalist for the 2023 Ray Guy Award.

Weekend weather: Cold, some snow, oh yes
CLEVELAND (WJW) — Not as frigid tonight, but still plenty cold. Temperatures will fall into the low 20s and teens by Saturday morning. A few clouds around and quiet. Any breeze will make it feel a bit colder.
The chance of snow will return this weekend. Spotty light snow showers will develop Saturday afternoon/evening. The coverage of snow will be a little higher in the primary snowbelt compared to the rest of the area. The chance of snow will ramp up when a fast moving clipper system swings through on Sunday. Scattered to numerous snow showers will develop Sunday afternoon and evening.
Snowfall accumulations will be light this weekend. Much of the area will see a coating to an inch of snow. Locally higher amounts of 1-2″ of snow will be found in the primary snowbelt.
If you’re headed to the Browns game on Sunday, just bundle up, it will be cold with a few falling snowflakes but no significant accumulation.
The start of workweek next week will be cold, with highs in the mid to upper 20s. Temperatures will go up a bit towards the middle of next week, but no big warm-ups are expected. Temperatures will stay below normal.
Another clipper system will move through towards the middle of next week. The highest coverage of precipitation will come Tuesday into Wednesday. Snow will change over to a wintry mix of rain and snow as temperatures warm above freezing.
Long range outlook for the first half of December per Scott’s outlook shows below normal temperatures across much of the northern half of the country. All 15 days to start December look to have temperatures below normal for the first time in 20 years!
Cold continues through mid-month. A small break around the 16-18th then the cold reloads the week before Christmas! Scott’s blog post highlights this.

Chilly pattern holds for Northeast Ohio, with light snow chances this weekend
CLEVELAND, Ohio — If you stepped outside early Friday, you felt it: bitter cold across Northeast Ohio as Arctic high pressure settled over the region, dropping many inland spots into the single digits.
The good news heading into the weekend is that temperatures will ease up a bit. The not-so-good news is they’ll still run below average — and a couple rounds of light snow are on the way.
Sunshine will mix with passing clouds Friday as the high shifts toward New England. Afternoon temperatures will struggle to reach the freezing mark, topping out in the upper 20s to lower 30s, according to the National Weather Service in Cleveland.
Overnight lows won’t be quite as harsh as Thursday night but will still fall into the teens to lower 20s.
Light snow possible Saturday, mainly in the snowbelt
A weak cold front trailing from a storm system over the Upper Great Lakes will slide in from the northwest on Saturday, bringing increasing clouds and the chance for a few light snow showers — mainly in the primary snowbelt east of Cleveland.
Most areas should stay dry and any accumulation looks minor, ranging from a dusting to perhaps an inch.
Highs Saturday across Northeast Ohio will reach the lower to mid 30s — 5 to 10 degrees lower than the daily normal of 43.
Clipper brings widespread light snow Sunday
A fast-moving clipper system will sweep through the Midwest and into the Upper Ohio Valley on Sunday, spreading light, steady snow across Northeast Ohio. Most areas can expect around 1 to 2 inches.
Temperatures will hover in the lower to mid 30s before falling late in the day as colder air arrives behind the clipper.
A brief period of lake-enhanced or light lake-effect snow may follow Sunday night, with another 1 to 2 inches possible in the snowbelt.
Active pattern continues next week
High pressure will build back in late Sunday night into Monday, ushering in another shot of Arctic air. Highs Monday will reach only the mid to upper 20s, with overnight lows dropping into the teens and single digits.
Temperatures may briefly rebound into the mid to upper 30s both Tuesday and Wednesday before the next clipper system arrives on Tuesday.
A stronger disturbance is expected to cross the Great Lakes Wednesday, bringing light to moderate precipitation — snow, a rain-snow mix, then snow again — though it’s too early to pin down amounts.
Another system late next week could carry more moisture and may be worth watching for a potentially higher-impact snow as the weekend approaches.
