This is the one preseason interview I have watched so far that is definitely worth the watch. Carson is a badass and a funny dude, great leader for this team. He is going to be such a critical piece of a championship chase.C Carson Hinzman
- Hinzman declined to confirm that Siereveld will be the starting right guard, jokingly saying he didn't want to be fined.
- On the veteran interior of the offensive line: "That's hard experience to have. So I think it's a really great trio that we can build off of."
- On moving forward from the struggles of last season: "Last year, obviously, last couple games we struggled with that. So I think all that in the back of our mind, we'll have how we're gonna handle that moving forward."
- Said the new turf is "actual real turf now — it's pretty sweet."
- The running back room has "my utmost respect, and I'm really excited to see what they can put on the field." Legend Bey was the first player Hinzman named, and he said Bey has a great understanding of the game from playing quarterback in high school.
- Called Sayin a "younger brother" and joked that he’s soft because he's from California.
- Said Arthur Smith has ingrained the offensive line to have the mindset that they're going to be the best unit in college football.
- On what he wants people to say about Ohio State’s offensive line this season: “These dudes are frickin’ violent, these dudes are playing the game the right way.”
- On Ohio State’s defensive line: “They’re really good. I’m excited to play someone other than them this week, for sure.”
- Said the defensive tackle group has "meshed really well" and all know their roles.
- Called Larry Johnson "the best of all time when it comes to making sure that the guys are on the right page and are on the right track."
- Said having a difficult schedule is a "blessing."
- When Sayin steps up his game, it makes Hinzman want to step up his.
- Said nothing the offensive line has done at this point matters until they put it on tape.
- Said "there's a ton of words" to describe the offensive line, some of which he couldn’t say in the press conference setting.
- Ian Moore has "flourished" — Hinzman believes he's ready to step up as Ohio State’s starting left tackle.
- Said the offensive line's priorities are winning against Michigan, winning the Big Ten championship and the national title. If the offensive line does what it's supposed to, he said it would be super cool to win the Joe Moore Award, but he's putting the team first.
