Kendall Sheffield’s career began at Alabama, then took a turn to junior college, before he finally found his way to Ohio State. He arrived last season with the expectation that he would step into OSU’s starting rotation, which he did. As a redshirt sophomore, Sheffield finished eighth on the team with 40 tackles and his nine PBUs…
When he signed with Alabama in 2015, Buckeye cornerback Kendall Sheffield was ranked the No. 4 cornerback in the nation and the No. 20 player in the class overall. He had offers from every blueblood program in the nation, and for good reason. As a true freshman, however, he was not ready to play. And as a redshirt…
The Buckeyes may return two starting cornerbacks from last season, but the rest of the position consists of freshmen and sophomores. Second-year players like Jeff Okudah, Marcus Williamson, and Shaun Wade are going to be counted on to provide depth behind incumbents Damon Arnette and Kendall Sheffield.
Buckeyes Denzel Ward and Billy Price were selected in the first round of the 2018 NFL Draft on Thursday, which has me wondering how many Ohio State football players could hear their names called in the first round of next year’s draft.

And, in doing so, he’ll be joining some friends. Ohio State has been stocking the NFL with cornerbacks of late, and Ward is just the latest in that line.
The end of Big Ten preseason football media days is now 98 days away, which means the countdown to the start of college football season* is now down to double digits. In case you missed yesterday’s edition, each day until then, we’ll count down the 100 greatest Buckeyes of The Ozone era (1996-present).
Every year people get excited for Ohio State’s spring game. It’s the first opportunity to see the latest edition of the Buckeyes, after all. The anticipation builds and builds, until finally the game begins. And that’s when people remember that there is no tackling for most of the game. Then comes the grumbling…
Ohio State returns two starting cornerbacks from last season in Kendall Sheffield and Damon Arnette, which is (technically) as many or more than anybody else in the nation.
