LB Raekwon McMillan (Official Thread)

[Bleed S & G]

It's an interesting dynamic, benching a senior captain who is best buddies with the freshman stud will be very hard to do. I like the rotation they have going on right now, personally, but McMillan will be tough to keep off the field come end of the year.

 

[lvbuckeye]

the rotation keeps those legs just a little more fresh. i'm for it.

Expecting a big game from Raekwon this week vs a team that wants to try and run the ball a little more. Or next week I should say.

One of my favorite plays in the tsun game was the 1st play after tsun took over after J.T. got carted off. It was a textbook linebacker play by Raekwon. He diagnoses the play, throws a blocker off him, fills the hole and makes the tackle for a loss of 1. He is going to be a special player by the time he's done.

 

[Drubuck]

Like the way this kid attacks the lanes. Big sure tackler that will be a huge asset this week against the Badgers.

 

[Bestbuck36]

Really wish he was on the field more often. Love the way he attacks the line of scrimmage.

LB play is going to be huge this week. UW is known for it's OL getting to the second level and negating LB play. I am hoping that
Bennett and Washington will be able to tie up the OL and free up the LB's to fill the gaps and limit Gordon's ability to get to the second level.

To me that's the whole story....can Washington and Bennett hold up for 4 qtrs. when we rarely sub at DT. We need a lead or I am afraid our light Dt's will get wore down. Wish we had a Ted Washington Vince Wolfork type.

 

[scarletngray]

Yeah, we are going to need Schutt to step up against UW and spell Washington and Bennett some. He did play some against scUM and has the size we would need. Moving Bosa inside from time to time with Frazier taking his place at DE will also be key. It will be interesting to see how the Wisky OL will be able to handle Bosa's and Bennett's quickness.

Agreed. Also of importance-how much holding Wisconsin gets away with.

I laughed because this is ridiculously true. If they get a holding penalty or two early in the 1st that may get them to release a little easier, but I'm not holding my breath on that happening with a B1G crew. I fully expect the holding calls to happen to us, or not until the 4th quarter if they ever call Wiscy for it.

LB: Raekwon McMillan, Ohio State
Playing mostly in a reserve role, McMillan had an immediate impact on the Buckeyes. The former blue-chip recruit recorded 49 tackles, 2.5 sacks and an interception

And in true ESPiN style, J.T. Barrett is left out in place of Kaaya (which incidentally, in my language, means a boob).

Which made no sense with JT being 5th in the Heisman voting. Where was Kaaya....yeah that's right

The headline says it's a team of true freshmen.
