The Forgettable Ross Homan

The Forgettable Ross Homan!!!

The Forgettable Ross Homan | Bleacher Report

"Understandably, both Terrelle Pryor and Cameron Heyward grab most of the spotlight, but in many Buckeye circles even Brian Rolle gets more publicity than Homan. No offense to Rolle, but after last year it's pretty clear that he is the second best linebacker on this team. Homan's stat sheet was easily the most impressive of any defensive player on the roster. He led the team with 108 tackles (57 solo compared to Rolle's 37), while recording five tackles for loss and a ridiculous five interceptions. He was a 2nd-Team Big Ten performer and is easily a front runner for 1st Team in 2010. So, where is the love for Ross Homan?"

Boy isn't it the truth what does this kid got to do to get respect from the buckeye nation. If a story comes out about any starting buckeye it is posted right away on most boards, but not Homan's not sure why?? Easily the 1st or 2nd best player on D, should be a lock for captain this year and lead this D again this year!!!!

I vaguely remember Lil animal saying Homan was going to be one of the next best lb's here and that he was a workout maniac like animal and Freeman. I'm really excited to see how this years lb's perform. We've got experience with Homan and Rolle and a ton of young talent waiting to get a shot. Our dominant dline will help them make plays even more.

Homan is a great player and possibly the best linebacker to come out of tOSU of the past ten years, and that's saying a lot.

But, he doesn't make headlines. He doesn't say stupid stuff to the press (not referring to anyone in particular), he doesn't have long flowing locks or a rockstar name like AJ Hawk, and his dad is not a famous pro wrestler. Just not a whole lot of ink-able material. All he does is make tackles!

Maybe if we can get him to date Vandenbergs mom...

LB Ross Homan: No. 51 (6-0, 230)
A shorter, tightly wound linebacker who displays good body control and footwork in his drop. Exhibits the ability to sit into his back-pedal, read the quarterback?s eyes, cleanly redirect and make a play on the football in zone. Possesses good instincts and natural ball skills and routinely is flowing toward the play. Now, isn?t real explosive when asked to get out of his breaks and lacks great range in coverage, as he can be exposed in space. But he is physical when asked to play in man and knows how to re-route tight ends/backs off the line and cleanly flip his hips and run.

Plays with a good motor, works hard in pursuit and has a real nose for the football. However, isn?t the most physical of defenders inside the box. Exhibits an above-average pop at the point when asked to take on linemen in the hole, but struggles to quickly shed and make a play on the ball. Can be washed out of plays inside and knocked off balance easily trying to make his way toward the ball carrier. Is a solid wrap-up guy who can routinely get his man to the ground in tight areas but will overrun the football and struggles to break down when asked to tackle in space.

Impression: A smart, savvy linebacker with above-average body control in the pass game and a nose for the ball. However, he lacks ideal size and isn?t a real explosive athlete. Looks more like a solid reserve type who can be a spot starter when need be.
