CB Jay Timmons (Official Thread)

Depth Chart Outlook​

While Timmons can play both on the outside and at nickel, the slot is where he will likely begin his Ohio State career, as it's the most likely path to the field for Timmons as a freshman. Florida State transfer Earl Little Jr., who played safety in Tallahassee but is expected to play nickel at OSU, will hold the top spot in the depth chart. Still, Timmons could very well be in the second spot in the slot on the two-deep to begin his first season as a Buckeye.

In formations where Ohio State uses six defensive backs, Timmons could be on the field in those situations, competing for playing time with fellow freshman Jordan Thomas, Alabama transfer Cam Calhoun and redshirt sophomore Miles Lockhart, among others. He could also earn early playing time on special teams, where his speed and eye for the football could allow him to be an outstanding gunner early on.

Jermaine Mathews Jr. and Devin Sanchez are the favorites to start at cornerback to begin the 2026 season, but Timmons has the tools to compete for a top backup spot right away. Once Mathews and Little take their talents to the NFL following the 2026 season, Timmons could very well be a starter in Ohio State’s secondary as a sophomore in 2027.

It’s clear that Patricia and Laurinaitis want to continue keeping that Arvell OLB role going. Another offer went out today. Prince Goldsby. Freak athlete, Rivals just ranked #80 overall. His recruiting process is relatively fresh, so we’re not late.

I'm a fan of him based on his name alone. Obviously if coach Patricia and coach Laurinaitis want someone, then I'm good with it.

Offers from Bama, Miami, Tenn, Penn State, Ole Miss, Oregon among others.
Long and rangy looks like he's got a frame like Sonny and Arvell

He’s said recently he’s 6’4 210lbs. Has been clocked at 22 mph. Some schools recruiting as an Edge, some OLB.
