I don't want to speak bad about a Buckeye, but I hope the staff ignores any player named "Underwood" for the next couple years. A couple of headaches, those two were.
Looks like Jordan has finally decided to retire. I hope he stays around as a student coach.

Missing: Sirjo, Underwood, and Jordan.
The #7 jersey will NEVER go out of style
Rose is gonna look sharp in #9 coming off the edge (Mario Williams?).
Hopefully Aaron Gant ends the curse of #8
Jenkins listed at 6-1 202. Solid 
Ray Small listed at 6-0. Yeah right...
Lyons listed at WR again
Patterson changed to #23
Dionte Johnson really only 234 lbs?
Curtis Terry now #55 |

I thought Rose at #9 was pretty darned sweet as well.... along with Larry Grant being #6.
Some others: Chimdi and MDA #5 on defense, along with Teddy and Henton #7 on offense? Is this allowed?

#4 Raymond Small
#4 Kurt Coleman
#5 Chimdi Chekwa
#6 Larry Grant
#7 Antonio Henton
#8 Aaron Gant
#9 Robert Rose
#24 Grant Schwartz
#26 Tyler Moeller
#28 Chris Wells
#37 Thaddeus Gibson
#43 Aram Olson
#44 Mark Johnson
#51 Ross Homan
#70 Bryant Browning
#72 Dexter Larimore
#77 Connor Smith
#82 Andy Miller (listed TE)
#86 Jacob Ballard (also TE)
#94 Walter Dublin

The only rule with numbers is that you can't have two on the field simultaneously. Henton is obviously a redshirt and Chekwa will probably redshirt as well. It does mean no Coleman and Small on special teams together...at least this year.
It takes no time to change a number though. Brandon Smith, Guilford, Dukes all changed between Photo Day and Opening Day. Tyree and Nicol switched during the season.

I'm guessing its allowed if Chekwa and Henton take a red-shirt. Is that right?
EDIT: Ah, you're too fast.
I was kinda hoping Henton would get the #10 and we could give the coveted #7 to a RB for a change...you know, some RB we got coming next year...supposedly kinda fast. Brandon something or other.

One thing that stands out a little bit is the number of out of state players on roster.
NJ - 2
FL - 4
GA - 5
MI - 2
VA - 1
PA - 6
KY - 1
IN - 2
MO - 1
CA - 4
MN - 1
SC - 1
NY - 1
MD - 1
LA - 1
MA - 1
S. Africa - 1
I think this helps out with out of state recruiting down the line. For example, you have Blankenship committing which gives you 7 in PA. That's pretty solid. I doubt that we ever had that many from PA before.

The #7 may never go out of style, but it shouldn't be going to Henton either. Henton and Gant need to swap, so that Gant can carry on the tradition of #7 once Ginn is gone.
