DT Donovan Munger (Official Thread)

We lose Goebel, Simon and probably Hankins. Price, Hill and Munger are the replacements.

Sprinkle is also slated for the inside as well, Simon is playing outside now, and Hankins isn't necessarily gone either. You're scenario isn't as straight-forward as you think.

"He got recruited as a pass rusher, but Ohio State projects him as an inside player,? Fell said. ?That may be their new philosophy ? taking those athletic guys and moving them inside."

Was Cameron Heyward an inside or outside player?

Johnathan Hankins lined up on the edge at times last season.

In the hybrid defensive front the Buckeyes favor, the distinction between an inside and outside player is blurred to say the least.

It could be that Ohio State is projecting Sprinkle at strong side DE where the distinction is the most in question (due to the Viper/LEO dropping back into coverage and creating a 3-man front).

Oh, and to the topic of this thread- Price, Hill and Munger seem to be classic 1 or 3-technique tackles, which means they could still be considered in a different category from Spinkle if that is the way the coaches are thinking.

Fine. However, my initial post was to say that it is not a straight Goebel/Simon/Hankins out, Munger/Price/Hill in... but that he left off Sprinkle as a DT candidate too, and that Hankins is not a for sure loss to the NFL yet.

Thus, we are bringing in more DT recruits than the number we are losing, which could lead to one being moved to OG - where we need legit talent too, and Price or Munger could provide that.

Price will NOT move to OL. Not happening. Get over it.

Thanks, Zoltar.

OL Munger gets plenty of attention
July, 28, 2012
By Brad Bournival | ESPN.com

COLUMBUS, Ohio ? Ohio State didn?t get any players to commit immediately following its first Friday Nights Lights camp at the Horseshoe, but the Buckeyes received a big hint about when they might expect an answer from one of the big guys they covet.

That would be big as in 6-foot-3, 280-pound Donovan Munger (Shaker Heights, Ohio/Shaker Heights).

The ESPN 300 defensive tackle came to Urban Meyer?s first camp in Ohio Stadium and walked away with a message.
