Buckeye Linebackers Will Set Depth Chart In Fall Camp
The Buckeyes are returning two starting linebackers from last season, having lost just Malik Harrison from a year ago. Starters Pete Werner and Tuf Borland return, as do five other upperclassmen with experience. Seniors Baron Browning and Justin Hilliard have as much experience as regular starters, and juniors K’Vaughan Pope, Teradja Mitchell, and Dallas Gant have all seen plenty…
Making Sense of the Ohio State Linebacker Situation (Or Trying To)
One of the first questions I wanted an answer for when walking into Monday’s open Ohio State football practice was whether or not seniors Baron Browning and Tuf Borland were still tied together at middle linebacker. However, Browning was still rehabbing from a minor injury, so he was not practicing. This meant that my main question would have to wait to be answered…

Ohio State spring football is now two practices in, and we’re getting little more insight into what to expect from the 2020 OSU tight ends and linebackers.
How Will Ohio State Replace… LB Malik Harrison
Malik Harrison was one of those Central Ohio prospects who had to wait until after his senior season to receive an Ohio State offer. A three-star prospect out of Walnut Ridge High School in Columbus, Harrison had already taken official visits to Wisconsin and Indiana before the Buckeyes ever even offered. Harrison finally got that OSU offer in…
Fall Camp 2019 To Do List: LB Coach Al Washington
Fall camp gets underway for the Buckeyes on Friday and every single Ohio State position coach will have a mental list of things that they need to get done. In fact, they may actually have a physical list as well. Speculating as to what might be on each assistant coach’s list is always a fun exercise, and there are no shortages of items that will need to be addressed.
Ohio State Spring Recap — Can the Linebackers Return to Form?
Ohio State returns all three starting linebackers from last season in Tuf Borland, Malik Harrison, and Pete Werner. In fact, they lost just two linebackers from last year’s team. The Buckeyes were two or three players deep this spring at each linebacker position, which gave new linebackers coach Al Washington plenty to watch throughout camp.
Biggest Movers So Far This Spring — Ohio State Defense
Every year, new Buckeyes emerge and climb the depth charts of the Ohio State offense and defense. It is a necessary progression which then allows the program to replace departed stars and reestablish any loss of depth. This year on the OSU defense, nine starters return from last season, which makes climbing the depth chart quite a…
Buckeyes Excited About Simpler, Faster, Straight Ahead Defense
There was a telling moment during an interview session with Ohio State defensive line coach Larry Johnson last week. He was asked about the oft-discussed simplification of the OSU offense and he remarked that “you can never be simplified enough.” This thought flies in the face of what the Buckeyes did the last two years on defense, with…
Morning Constitutional: Which Young Buckeyes Have Flashed This Spring Per Ryan Day?
It’s a question as old as time (early on during a football camp) — how are the young guys looking? Everybody wants to know about the young guys because we all think we already know about the older guys. We want new news. We’re not the only ones, however, because coaches love it when there are young guys to talk about, even if…
