2018 Ohio State Defensive Tackle Signee Taron Vincent Named National High School Defensive Player of the Year by the Maxwell Club

Ohio State's defensive line has been one of the best units of the football team throughout Urban Meyer's tenure as head coach, and both Larry Johnson and a litany of top flight recruits have helped maintain that group as a core strength.

Defensive tackle Taron Vincent, the No. 1 player at his position and the No. 13 player overall in the country, is just the latest of a long line of five star defensive linemen to make their way to Columbus. He just racked up another in a long line of accolades that he's collected over his high school career.
