Throughout the course of the offseason, Eleven Warriors is taking an in-depth look at the state of every position group at Ohio State.
Up front, Ohio State lost Chase Young, DaVon Hamilton, Jashon Cornell and Robert Landers. At the back end of the defense, it no longer has Jeff Okudah, Damon Arnette and Jordan Fuller.
At the second level of the defense, the Buckeyes lost Malik Harrison, a third-round pick. He might not be easily replaceable, but he's the only one linebackers coach Al Washington and co-defensive coordinator Greg Mattison have to play without. Otherwise, everybody else is back, including seven upperclassmen.
