I wonder if he hasn't been bothered by nagging injuries all season?

Hope he gets FULLY well soon. Not only for the team's sake, but his. I've been high on him since watching him dominate in the Army AA game as a senior. If he can return to that form, I don't care what position he plays. Let the coaches figure that out.

There were reports of him having a "nagging" injury for quite a few weeks during the season.
This would explain why he didn't produce as much as some had hoped.
Get well soon RR.

This is starting to feel a lot like a Kenny Peterson situation. A major talent coming in as a DE, grew a little too big for a DE and lost a little speed. Both had injuries early in their career that held back their contributions. Hopefully Robert can be a force for us in the middle this year, at least adding valuable depth.

With the Worthington situation, we NEED Rose to step up and produce big this year.

How does Rose miss out on the 2-deep? He was a monster as a true freshman, but I guess dealt with injuries last season. Why isn't he making up more ground though this spring and off-season?

Another very highly recruited but so far under achieving Glenville star (see Darius Hiley, Ray Small and Jamario O'Neal). Hopefully he can get it together.

I dont think you can say "under achieving", he has been hurt most of his time at Ohio State so far
