LB Arvell Reese (National Champion)

not sure I've ever seen anyone his size obliterate offensive linemen quite like he does.

Lawrence Taylor

Not making the comp, just saying I see a 6'3" ish 235Lb-ish guy rag dolling OL and then running down skill players like that and it looks as close to that as I can recall.

LT did it at the NFL level, this is only college but it looks similar.

I don't recall Parsons ever being that much of a stack & shed monster against the run but I didn't pay that close of attention to him at PSU to be honest.
Imo I see more of Andy Katzemoyer in Reese’s game than Parsons. Parsons was more of a speed rusher up the gap, and smaller than Reese and Big Kat. Big Kat was an instinctive force that was hard to block but also would blow up offensive players in space. Parsons could/can be neutralized if larger OL get their hands on them, that’s not happening with the 2 OSU LBs

I loved Cody Simon and all but I feel liked we’ve been robbed of a year of one of the best linebackers I’ve ever seen.
Idk if Reese was fully ready last year. He wasn’t playing like this last year. Simon’s leadership was needed, and he was a solid player who was rarely in the wrong spot. I think forcing Reese to start last year wouldve caused some major frusteration from fans and coaches. He had some big whiffs last year trying to make a highlight play, where Simon just made the play that wasn’t flashy but got the job done
