Walton is now the Buckeyes’ defensive passing game coordinator, an OSU spokesperson confirmed to cleveland.com. His amended contract, which included a $300,000 raise to an even $1 million, referred to him as “assistant head coach” as opposed to “assistant football coach” on his original contract.

Gotta give this man his flowers. His recruiting, coaching and development has turned this group around.

I'll hold off on my flower order until the end of November, but there's no doubt we look a lot better at CB between Burke returning to form and Davison coming in...Hancock I'll have to see a bigger body of work. At safety, my only thing is don't put Martinez in. A combination of Styles, Ransom, Proctor, Carter and Hartford should be solid. But our secondary is getting to the ball much better regardless, just hope we can do it against the soon to be improved competition.

Does he only work with the CBs and Eliano does the safety group?

Shit man after these last few seasons and giving up big plays in all the big games, I’ll applaud any turnaround lol. I agree, Martinez is a giant liability, but Knowles/Walton did the right thing against YSU and put him on the bench after his errors. At least they are recognizing when to pull and sit players. I think we are absolutely loaded even when we’re in nickel, which could be a good thing with the offenses we have to play. Hopefully it stays on an upward path.

My only concern was them playing Ransom the whole game..no chance to for the guy being him to develop if he gets no run. And Random.was good to start last year but feels very average since. Maybe that should scare us in what we think is behind him if we won't let them play. Maybe he's the guy making all the D calls. But we're boned experience wise next year if that"s the case barring a transfer

I'm the biggest Ransom supporter out there, he has the results from last season mostly and I don't worry about him much for the long haul.

Styles, Hatford, Proctor, Carter etc. are all right there and getting snaps. I think we have a good safety group once we figure out who the right group is...but I think Ransom is part of whatever that group is. Ransom is very talented, but I'm not sure the coaches are utilizing him the right way. That is my real concern in the secondary. Corner seems more secure, LB is great, and DL is really worrying me. But the right 3 safeties needs to get sorted out next Saturday.

Right now I would have it Styles, Ransom, Hatford and Proctor in that order fwiw.
