COLUMBUS: Ohio State defensive coordinator Luke Fickell said it is Dante Booker’s time to shine.
While Booker acknowledges the pressure that comes from such expectations, the junior linebacker from St. Vincent-St. Mary doesn’t run from it.
And, according to his roommate Raekwon McMillan, Booker can definitely run.
“He makes plays on the field that I can’t make. He’s very fast as a linebacker,” McMillan said Sunday during Ohio State football media day at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center. “You don’t really expect that from a guy who’s 235 pounds. Seeing him out there running like that is very crazy.
