OL Carson Hinzman (All B1G, All American, National Champion)

Birm mentioned this in one of their casts. He said, “other guys have gone through (senior walk) twice…”

I’m sure that Hinzman knows this. I also see it as encouraging that he’d return. That’d shape up to be one hell of a line.
And I think they could have a battle between Padilla and Van Sickle at RG and Cook be the backup Center

Major props to Carson for sticking with it. In this modern era of players leaving at the first sign of adversity, he never stopped working and now gets an All-American tree to show off his hard work.

2023: starter; benched for bowl game
2024: lost preseason battle for starting job; got it back and won a National Championship
2025: All-American
2026: Rimington, please
 
CARSON HINZMAN, FUTURE COMEDIAN? I hope Carson Hinzman has a long, prosperous football career ahead of him. But if things don’t work out on the gridiron, he may have a future in stand-up comedy. (I could, too, but I prefer to sit.) Hinzman had Ohio State beat reporters belly laughing Monday during the team’s Cotton Bowl press conferences.

The first round of laughs came when Hinzman realized the press conference had a Zoom component. With a reporter’s question coming through the speakers above him, Hinzman jokingly looked up at the ceiling to answer.

Another hilarious moment followed during an exchange with Doug Lesmerises about Gabe VanSickle’s nickname, “Sicko Mode.” Hinzman shared several nicknames for Ohio State’s offensive linemen, including “Piggy” for Austin Siereveld, “Tigre” for Tegra Tshabola and “Dilla” for Joshua Padilla.

“I don’t think anyone actually knows his real name,” Hinzman said of Padilla.

Other nicknames included “Big J” for Julian Goines-Jackson and “Big E” for Ethan Onianwa. Hinzman declined to share his own nickname, choosing to “keep that one under wraps for now.”

“It’s been fun to be a part of a group like that that came together after a lot of experience left from last year’s team,” Hinzman said. “Playing these big games with them is pretty special.”


Last but not least, Hinzman addressed his bleach-blonde hair. When asked if it was a mistake, he said:

“I don’t know. All the guys are like, ‘When is it gonna wash out?’ And I was like, ‘That’s actually the funny thing about bleaching your hair — it doesn’t.’ Unfortunately, it was really cool until I woke up the next morning. I was like, ‘Oh, I’m still blond,’” Hinzman said.

Hinzman said it will be cool once his hair turns into frosted tips — à la *NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys in the ’90s. His girlfriend disagrees.

“We’ll see,” Hinzman said. “My girlfriend’s not necessarily the biggest proponent of it, so we’ll see.”

We need this man in front of a microphone more often.

Bleached hair is hilarious. Especially as someone who was a teenager through the 90s boy band era.
