OHIO STATE RIGHT TACKLE ISAIAH PRINCE BELIEVES HE HAS “PLAYED PRETTY GOOD” WHILE DEALING WITH CHALLENGES OF BLOCKING FOR RUN-PASS OPTIONS
In his first season as Ohio State’s starting right tackle in 2016, Isaiah Prince was one of the team’s most oft-criticized players.
Last season, Prince changed that narrative. He was one of the Buckeyes’ most improved players in 2017, evolving from a weakness of the offensive line into a strength.
Recently, however, Prince has emerged as a frequent target of criticism from Ohio State fans once again. Search “Isaiah Prince” on Twitter, and you won’t have to look far to find unsavory reviews of his play, some of which aren’t fit for print here.
Ask Prince how he feels he has performed this season, however, and he will defend his play. He doesn’t believe his play regressed this season; to the contrary, the senior captain believes he is playing better than last season.
“I don’t want to talk about myself, but I think I’ve played pretty good this season,” Prince said. “I’ve (given up) a few pressures, a few sacks. I’m never going to play perfect, but I play as hard as I can on Saturdays.
“I think I’ve definitely played a lot better than I did last year, when you cut the film on.”
Urban Meyer doesn’t agree with the criticism, either.
“He’s performed pretty good,” Ohio State’s head coach said of Prince. “There’s been some times where he hasn’t played great, but for the most part, he’s played pretty well. We expect him to be our leader, and he does a good job in practice leading the group. Overall, the body of work has been very good.”

Great day to be a Buckeye
Gotta bump Isaiah's thread after that TTUN victory today. For all his struggles, he and the entire line played lights out against that vaunted scUM defense in The Game.

Watched in person...kept my eye on him specifically-he ate Winovich’s lunch all game. And everyone else they threw at him.
62 will go down in Buckeye loor and he deserves as much credit for it as anyone.

Four pairs of gold pants and the memories of being a captain and playing a helluva game on the day the Bucks put a record 62 on the board against TTUN.
Well done, Isaiah.
Well done, Isaiah.
