Looking forward to the 2022 season: A new defense

The offseason creeps by, and I continue to look forward to next year. Hurry up, please. I’ve discussed looking forward to seeing several offensive stars mature in their second real seasons: C.J. Stroud, TreVeyon Henderson, and Marvin Harrison, Jr. I wrote about looking forward to Ohio State’s great recruiting class of 2021 stepping up and dominating next season.

Now, I’m turning my attention to the other side of the ball – to the defense. And I’m not going small here. I’m looking forward to an entirely new defense. Sure, I’m happy that Jim Knowles is here to take control, and I think that his hefty, nearly $2 million dollar salary is money well spent.
