Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
“We understand that once we come in, that nothing's promised to us. It's all about working hard. How hard do you want to work because it's not just the football aspect. It's academics as well. You’ve got to handle things on and off the field.”

Even as five-star prospects, the battle for playing time as freshmen will be an uphill one for C.J. Hicks and Sonny Styles this season.
The seventh-rated player in the country out of high school, Hicks is competing against a surplus of veterans, transfers and returning starters who are all vying for playing time at the two inside linebacker spots for the Buckeyes. Styles, the 12th-ranked recruit in the nation, should technically still be awaiting to play his senior season at Pickerington Central. The 6-foot-4 safety reclassified into the 2022 class back in December.
But as green as Ohio State’s two top-rated freshmen may be, their lack of experience hasn’t stopped them from turning heads on the practice field at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center.
An early enrollee who arrived on campus back in January, Hicks has had several more months than Styles to make an impression on his coaches and teammates. Asked about the Dayton native Tuesday, Jim Knowles and the Buckeye linebacker corps weren’t shy in their praise for Hicks’ work thus far.

C.J. Hicks picked off a pass by Devin Brown after the veterans left practice to allow the young players to get additional reps.
