Recent mocks no longer have him in the 1st...


I agree with him not being in the best position, but he should be talented enough to make up for it. Anything under double digit sacks is not a very good season for what Harrison was supposed to be coming in. 2 true frosh have as many sacks as him, and they haven't played nearly the same amount of snaps, the speaks quite loud. I'm rooting for Zach to break out as the season progresses, but with the young pups starting to bite, how confident can we be?

Tyreek is the one they are running down.

Yeah I asked the question because I wonder what he thinks. To me it’s pretty obvious he needs to come back and keep developing and for a project type athlete there’s no shame in that. He was a 5 star based on measurable data. It only helps him to come back and hopefully continue to develop. Of course the risk is injury but that’s always true.

The question made Zach Harrison pause for a moment, but one beat’s worth of deliberation was all that was required.

Asked if he’s close to making his mind up on a decision about his future during an interview session at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center last week, the junior defensive end nodded his head and said “Yeah.”

“I think so. Right now I think I’m leaning one way or the other,” said Harrison on whether he’ll return to Ohio State or declare for the 2022 NFL draft.

Asked if he’s ready to divulge the direction in which he’s leaning, Harrison’s answer was instantaneous.

“Nah.”...:lol:

Harrison said he’s still “gathering the right information” before he comes to a conclusion, although he’ll play in the Rose Bowl nonetheless. But Harrison is not of the mind that he’s achieved everything he hoped to at Ohio State, either as an individual or a member of the collective group, and that will be one factor that influences the direction he ultimately decides to head.

“That’s definitely part of my decision. I feel like there’s definitely some things that I’ve left on the table that I feel like if I come back I can accomplish,” Harrison said. “That’s something that I just gotta factor in and sit down with my mom and dad and make those decisions.”

Based on what we all saw I would expect 3rd-6th round…but his combine numbers will be absurd and he’ll be a fringe 1st rounder. He gone.

Maybe, maybe not. Doesn't really matter one way or the other. His production is non existent.

I am curious how he will test though if he decides to go. I see a guy with absurd straight line speed for his size but he isn't "twitchy" at all. At least not his first step/get off on the snap. Elite guys look like they have been fired from a cannon. Harrison looks like a guy trying to pull his foot out of the mud without losing his shoe.

Combine numbers are nice, but you need to have some on field production, and Harrison has had next to none. If someone thinks he's worthy of a fringe 1st round pick, then more power to him.

Reminds me a bit of Kwity Paye from scUM. Barely any production but serious athleticism.

Paye at least had a season with 50tkls and 6.5sks, we all would lose our shit if Harrison had half that in one year. Hell, Paye's Soph season is better than any of Harrison's seasons

He coaches him, what should he say? If he says that Harrison is an average at best(up until this point) than that reflects poorly as him as a coach. Especially since he fought so hard for the former 5star Harrison. I'm sure Harrison has been a fine leader in practices, and is a model student-athlete, but let's not kid ourselves and act like he's been close to good in 3yrs. And watching Hutchinson and Ojabo for scUM should make us somewhat envious, as Harrison was supposed to be as good if not better than them both. And he doesn't hold a candle to either, and if he returns, there's a good chance he loses his starting spot to JTT or Sawyer
