Ohio State is loaded with talent once again this season, but much of it is unproven.
The Buckeyes signed their two highest-rated recruiting classes of the modern era in 2017 and 2018, and with those players entering their second and third seasons respectively, it’s their time to make an impact – in many cases, for the first time.
Here are 10 players who will be stepping into larger roles with the team and seem poised for breakout seasons in 2019.
WYATT DAVIS – OFFENSIVE LINE – REDSHIRT SOPHOMORE
After a redshirt year and a season as the team's first interior lineman off the bench, it's now Wyatt Davis' time to shine as Ohio State's starting right guard.
A five-star prospect out of high school, Davis has shown obvious potential since his arrival on campus in 2017, but he never saw meaningful action until starting guard Demetrius Knox suffered a season-ending leg injury in the final drive of Ohio State's win over Michigan last season.
Davis filled in nicely for Knox in Ohio State's two postseason victories over Northwestern and Washington and looks like a primed for a breakout year in his first season as a starter.
