When Jack Sawyer and JT Tuimoloau started their Ohio State careers as two of the top five overall prospects in the 2021 recruiting class, the expectation was that they would become immediate stars for the Buckeyes and leave for the NFL after three years. Instead, both enter their fourth year at Ohio State still looking to fully meet expectations.
The reality was that Sawyer and Tuimoloau still had a lot to learn when they arrived at Ohio State even though they were such highly touted recruits. That much was apparent to them during a recent film session when they and fellow senior defensive lineman Tyleik Williams watched some film from their freshman year.
