That was especially true of the team's safeties, who hope to turn things around in that realm in 2012. http://ohiostate.scout.com/2/1187165.html 2047 Jeff Svoboda http://ohiostate.scout.com/2/1187165.html Thu, 17 May 2012 03:32:00 GMT 1 145 Ohio State ohiostate Ohio State has boasted some of the best tackling defensive units in the nation the past six seasons under coordinator Jim Heacock.

Barnett impressed during his first two collegiate starts during the 2010 season. Unfortunately for the Clayton (Ohio) Northmont product, his season ended prematurely because of a leg injury suffered in the second week of the season.

Barnett was just one of a number of young faces fighting for a spot on the two-deep.

BSB staffer Jeff Svoboda gives his thoughts on that and dissects the new basketball schedule in these SvoNotes. http://ohiostate.scout.com/2/996080.html 2047 Jeff Svoboda http://ohiostate.scout.com/2/996080.html Thu, 26 Aug 2010 19:55:00 GMT 0 145 Ohio State ohiostate The first-team defense stepping on the field for Ohio State against Marshall one week from today might not look much like the first unit seen throughout fall camp.
