Ohio State Spring Recap: Buckeye Linebackers Find New Roles
Ohio State went into the spring having to replace just one linebacker from last season, but that one was a big one.

Buckeye Football Notebook: ‘The best three or four are going to play’
For the entirety of spring football, the Buckeyes went with Jerome Baker, Chris Worley, and Dante Booker as the ones at linebacker.

What I ended up doing is simply jotting down some notes on the players who will ultimately make up that defensive line or secondary or offensive line.
Buckeye Football Notebook: ‘Its really, really nice because the defense gets exhausted’
Urban Meyer didn’t hire Kevin Wilson as Ohio State’s offensive coordinator to keep things status quo. The Buckeyes have already seen how that story goes. No, Meyer hired Wilson to make some changes — or maybe “fixes” would be a better term.
