Date: Oct 3, 2005

With some time to spare due to the Buckeyes having an open weekend, wide receiver Brian Hartline and offensive lineman T.J. Downing made a trip up to Canton to check out their alma mater GlenOak High School on the football field. Bill Greene was in attendance at the game and had a chance to speak with each player about their seasons so far. Read on for more.

B. Hartline

One of the things that I love to do, when I go to the Horseshoe, is to show up early to watch pre-game warmup. While it's only practice, I've been really impressed with the young receivers, especially Dukes, Hartline, and Robiske. All 3 run very crisp routes. Hartline and Robiske have very good hands, and both snatch the ball out front with their hands, similar to what we see with Holmes and Gonzo. Dukes and Hartline both can accelerate on demand. Hartline, in particular, has serious size and a frame that will really fill out in the weight room.

All 3 will be VERY good. Hartline and Dukes will be SPECIAL.

Go Bucks!

Ohio State notebook: OSU’s Hartline suffers injury during workout

Wednesday, December 14, 2005

COLUMBUS - When it comes to breaking bones, few can stay as positive as Brian Hartline.

The Ohio State freshman wide receiver broke his right collarbone at the end of Saturday’s practice as the Buckeyes were preparing for the Jan. 2 Fiesta Bowl. Hartline broke his leg in the first game of his final season at GlenOak High School.

The 6-foot-3, 180-pounder is redshirting this year and has worked on the scout team offense all season. He will make the trip to Arizona with his teammates.

“If you were going to pick a time for this to happen, this is the perfect time,” Hartline said. “But I’m sick of saying that. I will miss a week of winter conditioning and be back after that.”

Hartline was working at wide receiver, emulating Notre Dame’s Jeff Samardzija, even wearing the same No. 83 in a Notre Dame green practice jersey last week.

The injury came during the final 15 minutes of practice, when Head Coach Jim Tressel holds “show time.” It’s an opportunity for young players who don’t play on Saturday afternoons to show off their skills.

Hartline beat defensive back Serjo Welch on a post route for a touchdown. Hartline caught the pass, but Welch landed on him in the end zone. “It was the second-to-last play,” Hartline said. “I didn’t think I broke it. I went back to the huddle and it was hurting and then I decided to come out and let the trainers look at it. It wasn’t nearly as bad or as painful as the broken leg last year. That’s why I didn’t think it was broken.”
