With coaching changes, cornerback Denzel Ward moving on to the NFL and safety spots to fill, some may think the back-end of the defense could be a weakness for the Ohio State football team. That couldn’t be farther from the truth.
Losing cornerbacks coach Kerry Coombs could have been a big blow but not with Taver Johnson taking his place. After all, coach Johnson’s first stint with the Buckeyes was a very successful one and he has sent players to the NFL as well.
Alex Grinch joined the staff to coach to allow Greg Schiano more time to oversee the entire defense.
