Ohio State spring football practice is in full swing as the Buckeyes, with lots of new faces, take aim at another playoff run. Practices began March 26 and end with the spring game at Ohio Stadium on April 18.

Ohio State leaned on the transfer portal to address needs in its secondary, particularly at safety. The Buckeyes signed Earl Little Jr. from Florida State — OSU’s projected starter at nickelback — and Terry Moore from Duke. However, Roker got the initial first-team reps at safety alongside McClain.

Ohio State football begins spring practice with new coordinator Arthur Smith, an evolving offensive line, and defensive questions.

Ohio State defensive tackle James Smith met with the media to discuss his rationale for transferring from Alabama, OSU culture, and more.
