LB Mike Mitchell (transfer to Texas Tech, transfer to Southeastern FL)

It just means that the camp grind caught up with them. They came in fit and fired up and are momentarily a little burnt out. They'll work through it and be fine. I actually think you want your freshmen hitting the wall. That's indicative of the rigor of Urban-era camps. It's fantastic that we're wearing out elite-level athletes. That means they've worked harder in the last few weeks than ever before and they'll be stronger for it.

Can you ask for a better spot to be in than Mike Mitchell this year?

Being an incoming freshman LB at tOSU in 2013? Wow. Hope he is mature beyond his years, mentally tough, studious and instinctual. With that in mind: see ball, get ball. Go get 'em Mike...we really need you.

:oh:

Buckeyes' LB Mike Mitchell, a James Laurinaitis fan, deals with camp wall: Ohio State freshman focus
By Doug Lesmerises, Northeast Ohio Media Group
August 21, 2013 s


COLUMBUS, Ohio ? Stunningly, Mike Mitchell did not know that the father of James Laurinaitis was a professional wrestler. He was quickly instructed to examine YouTube video of Joe Laurinaitis, a former WWE star, as Road Warrior Animal. Or Mitchell could read any of the hundreds of stories referencing the famous father during James Laurinaitis' OSU career.

Mitchell, however, does know something about Laurinaitis as a linebacker. He's been watching the former OSU star on film.

?It's just how physical he is. But his brain is just as unbelievable. He recognizes so much stuff on the field, and he's a great leader," Mitchell said. "His linebacker IQ is really high.?

How's Mitchell's linebacker IQ?

?Right now I'm just trying to go learn the defense and take it all in,? Mitchell said. ?It's moving really fast in camp, but I think I'm doing a really good job, at least as a freshman. All the other linebackers help me out.?

I looked at the participation report for the FAMU game and did not see his name. I looked because I didn't see him in the game

Trey Johnson played the whole 2nd half... Didn't see Mr. Mitchell at all

I would be happy to learn that I missed him, but I didn't see him
I was fairly sure I saw him on the kick coverage team in one of the earlier games, but I just checked the participation reports for the other three games and he hasn't played in any.
