Great comparison really. I said JK because that was my most recent memory of a more compact RB that at the end of his career ran decisively. Pittman was your true north-south slasher and so is Dallan, he picks a lane and goes 100 mph. I would imagine he will add in some patient running where he waits for blocks to develop but with this OL, I really think his running style fits so well. Our OL just mauls defenders and he can run full speed knowing there will probably be a hole there.

ON DALLAN HAYDEN
- "He practices. He practices every day. He's out there every day getting those reps."
- Day said Hayden has made mistakes, but that's common for a young running back. Day said those mistakes are not drastic, though, as a ball carrier's primary role is to take care of the football, and Hayden does that well in practice.

RYAN DAY’S THURSDAY PRESS CONFERENCE
ON THE RUNNING BACK ROOM
ON THE RUNNING BACK ROOM
- "It's time to get those guys some reps and get them going."
- Day said Ohio State will "rely on depth" against Indiana and try to use TreVeyon Henderson, Miyan Williams, Dallan Hayden and Chip Trayanum on Saturday to make sure each ball carrier is fresh and can get their feet underneath them. He added that Williams' hand is "a lot better this week" but said he struggled with it last weekend against Northwestern.
- On Dallan Hayden and Chip Traynaum: “We’re gonna try to play some depth this week at running back.”

Definitely a keeper. If Dallen can give Trey and Chop next week off would be huge.

He has vision and burst, and a surprising power for his size.

- On Dallan Hayden: "The talent was there, it's a matter of how quickly can they assimilate. ... That's really what you're not sure about with a young player." Day says he's done a good job of not letting the program be too big for him.

DALLAN HAYDEN ALREADY PROVING TO BE A RELIABLE RUNNING BACK IN HIS FIRST SEASON AT OHIO STATE
Dallan Hayden wasn't expected to be a key contributor during the 2022 season.
Yet, due to injuries and the type of player he has already shown he is and can be, Hayden has proven to be a guy that Ryan Day can rely on.
At the start of fall camp, the true freshman – ranked as the No. 19 running back (No. 226 overall) in the 2022 recruiting class – was RB4 on the depth chart, behind TreVeyon Henderson, Miyan Williams and Evan Pryor. Then, less than three weeks before the season was set to kick off, Pryor suffered a season-ending knee injury, moving Hayden to the third spot on the depth chart. Then, in Week 3 against Toledo, Henderson suffered a leg injury, an injury that re-emerged two weeks later and the sophomore hasn't been the same since while being held out of two of the four games after the second injury. To top it off, Williams suffered a hand injury against Penn State on October 29. Fast forward to this past Saturday, and he left the game against Indiana due to another injury.
When you add all of that together, it has turned into a number of changes on Ohio State's roster, including Xavier Johnson being used as a hybrid running back, Chip Trayanum – a running back at Arizona State before transferring to Ohio State to be a linebacker – transitioning back to running back and fullback Mitch Rossi lining up at tailback at times. It has also led to Hayden having a much more significant role in Ohio State's offense this season than anyone could have expected. He has made the most of the opportunity, especially while getting acclimated to everything that goes into college ball – both on and off the field – in his first season as a Buckeye.
"The talent was there, it's a matter of how quickly can they assimilate," Day said of Hayden. "How quickly can they get into the program and the culture and can they sustain over an extended period of time with all of the things that we ask of them. ... Just the daily grind of being a college football player as a freshman. That's really what you're not sure about with a young player.”
