Dasan McCullough (Ohio State decommit; Indiana signee)



TRAINING WITH THE CHIEFS.
Generally, you have to wait to come to Ohio State to practice against the best players in the world and sharpen that iron with iron, but the newest Buckeye commit, Dasan McCullough has skipped a few steps on that front.

Our own Zack Carpenter caught up with Dasan a few months ago to hear his tales about practicing with the current World Champion Kansas City Chiefs.

Mathieu lives just 10-15 minutes away, and many of the other Chiefs players live close by and train here three days a week – Monday, Wednesday, Friday – during the offseason. This is where McCullough has taken the field and lined up against many of the Chiefs' top players, including tight end Travis Kelce, receivers Tyreek Hill and Mecole Hardman and second-year running back Darwin Thompson.

McCullough has learned from all of them.

“I have a really good relationship with them, especially Kelce and the running backs,” McCullough said. “Tyreek, Mecole and Kelce. Those are the real top three. Some of the running backs like Darwin I’ve gone up against. I only guarded Mecole once. He was definitely a real bad dude. Him and Tyreek.”

And, of course, Patrick Mahomes, who he’s proud to say he’s defended against well, here and there.

“I’ve got a couple pass breakups, but I’ve never picked him off. Not yet,” McCullough says with a laugh. “I mean, it’s pretty cool because you’re basically going against pros – not even basically. You are going against pros. The best receivers and the best quarterback in the NFL. What high schooler can give you that type of work?”

I love the swagger of "not yet" when asked if he's picked of Patrick Mahomes.

Imagine coming to Ohio State and the practices somehow being a step down in competition. That doesn't happen.

EDDIE HAS A MESSAGE. Dasan McCullough seems to have collected quite a bit of attention for himself from both the best in the game. He's out there practicing with the World Champs, and getting congratulations messages from a Buckeye Heisman winner.



Eddie George didn't hit me up with a congratulatory message when I committed to Ohio State. I guess that's what I get for having a father who wasn't an NFL running backs coach, smh.
