After a forced hiatus of a couple of months, due mainly to a lack of internet at my new home, the Silver Bullets Podcast is back. The off-season may be quiet compared to the college football season itself, but there is plenty going on with spring practices just underway and the looming annual Spring Game. In the spirit of a busy offseason…
Zach Harrison will participate in his first official practice as an Ohio State football player on Wednesday morning. That’s when the Buckeyes will kick off their spring football season. But even before he steps on that field for the first time, Harrison is already a big name among most OSU fans.
The early days of Ohio State’s Rushmen Package began in 2015. Designed to get the four best pass rushers on the field at the same time on passing downs, the Rushmen satisfied defensive line coach Larry Johnson’s desire to put as much pressure on the quarterback as possible. The Rushmen probably would have begun in 2014…
It appears for the time being that Ohio State is going to go with three quarterbacks this season. That may change, but the Buckeyes are already at the scholarship limit and looking to add a graduate transfer or two on the offensive linemen.

Harrison was ranked as the nation’s No. 2 strongside defensive end, the No. 12 player overall, and the top player in the state. And given his measurables, the expectations will…
School is underway at Ohio State, which means the Buckeyes’ early enrollees are getting their first real taste of what it is like to be an Ohio State football player. It’s a learning experience for all of them, so they rely on each other to get through it. They also rely on the veterans to show them the way. Zach Harrison was one of the most…
Even though he’s only been on the job for a little while, Ohio State head coach Ryan Day has already made an impact on the recruiting trail. Along with defensive line coach Larry Johnson, the two of them were instrumental in keeping Central Ohio defensive end Zach Harrison from heading out of state. Harrison is not the first Columbus-area…
OSU’s Spring Semester starts on Monday, which means the Ohio State football 2019 early enrollees are now on campus to start their careers. Before we get to the freshmen, it’s worth noting that sophomore transfer quarterback Justin Fields is already in Columbus.
