ON3 on Khary Wilder:

just wanted to pop in and drop some quick thoughts on Khary Wilder because he is absolutely dominating this season. His movement skills are so freaky for the position. I am extremely curious what Ohio State will do with him since his body type and skillset is so versatile, but watching him play is such a treat. He has serious twitch, hand usage and bend for such a rare body type.

Wilder, an imposing defensive tackle prospect with some positional versatility has been one of the most productive defensive players in the country. At 6-foot-4, 260-plus pounds, Wilder has totaled over 80 tackles, 20 tackles-for-loss, 10 sacks and 25 hurries for Juniperro Serra (Calif.) high school so far this season. His movement skills for his size are special. He has the ability to knife between blockers from the interior and the bend to win the corner off the edge.

Ohio State freshman Khary Wilder already looks massive at spring ball

On the official spring roster, Wilder is listed at 6-4, 248 pounds. A stud defensive end/pass-rusher, Wilder saw his recruiting rankings explode, which eventually led to him landing his coveted fifth star from Rivals. That alone had the Ohio State faithful pretty dang jacked up.

Out of Junipero Serra High in California, Wilder had 28 offers to his name throughout his recruitment, taking official visits to Ohio State and UCLA. The draw of potentially staying close to home for his college ball was on his mind, but competing for national titles with the Buckeyes is tough to turn down.

Wilder also developed a close bond with defensive line coach Larry Johnson, with the veteran assistant helping to lead the way with OSU's recruiting efforts. Matt Patricia, who just landed a monster raise from Ryan Day and Ross Bjork, was also involved.

Wilder is an incredibly versatile athlete and the fact that he's getting a head start on his college career is great news for everyone. The freshman is going to push for immediate playing time and with him making noise early on for Ohio State, it's clear Day is going to put him in a spot to make a difference.

The defense for Ohio State is considered a major strength leading up to next season, but the losses of studs to the NFL is going to hurt. Luckily, Day and Co. reloaded via the portal and with some big-name freshmen too. Wilder is on that list and his potential has no limits moving forward.
