INCOMING FRESHMAN OFFENSIVE LINEMAN GABE VANSICKLE LOOKS TO “GET 1% BETTER EVERY DAY” AS HE BEGINS HIS OHIO STATE CAREER​

Gabe VanSickle is starting his Ohio State career with a simple goal.

“I want to just keep getting stronger and better every day because if you get 1% better every day, that adds up after a while,” VanSickle told Eleven Warriors this week.

VanSickle will arrive at Ohio State next weekend as one of seven summer enrollees in Ohio State’s 2024 recruiting class. The four-star offensive lineman joins wide receiver Mylan Graham, defensive end Dominic Kirks, tight ends Max LeBlanc and Damarion Witten, safety Leroy Roker and punter Nick McLarty in the second wave of freshmen joining the Buckeyes for the upcoming season.

Although VanSickle wasn’t on campus for spring practices, he’s been putting in plenty of work to get ready to start his Ohio State career.

He’s had two Zoom meetings a week with offensive line coach Justin Frye and graduate assistant Mike Sollenne, who have helped him learn OSU’s offensive playbook and the techniques he will need to know as an offensive lineman in the Buckeyes’ offense.

“The reads on where the linebackers are, where the D-tackles and where the D-ends are, and how much depth you should have on a set, how vertical you should be on an inside run play and stuff like that,” VanSickle said of what he’s learned from those meetings.

VanSickle has also been doing lifting and agility drills as part of a workout plan devised for him by Ohio State. He knows from talking to the players already on campus that he needs to be ready for intense summer workouts once he arrives at Ohio State.

“You need to get ready for them, because they come and hit you hard if you're not ready for them,” VanSickle says he’s been told. “So yeah, I'm just trying to get ready for them every day I work out.”

Is that percentage improvement compounded or simple?

Beast on the shot put. I know that wrestling is probably the favorite sport to excel at for HS lineman, but I love this as well. If shows power, technique, and balance. All huge aspects of being a good OL. Love to see this

I didn’t know until a few months ago Joe Thomas was a shot put and discuss champ in high school. Seems you are onto something;-)

It better not be per annum, I will tell you that. This kid could be a a very under the radar guy that thrives here.
