Saturday’s Student Appreciation Day made it clear just how important Donovan Jackson could be to Ohio State’s offensive line this season and beyond.
As expected, Jackson took all of the first-team reps at left guard during the portion of Saturday’s practice that was open to students and media members. Even though he played only 103 snaps with no starts last season as a true freshman, and even though he’s currently going through his first spring practices after just arriving at Ohio State last summer, Jackson already appears to have the starting left guard job locked up.
