In the games I saw, Simon split time between DE and DT. He was normally at DT in 4-3 formations, and moved out to DE in passing situations.

Most likely DT all the way. He's got his senior year of high school left and I'd say probably leaves HS at around 270-280, and then puts on 15-20 pounds at least once he arrives on campus, thanks to the S&C.

It happens all of the time at every level. Maybe not with Tressel as much, but he still misses here and there.

old news now... ESPN
Quote:
Ohio State adds coveted junior defensive lineman John Simon
John Simon has already given head coach Jim Tressel and the Buckeyes his pledge over Notre Dame, according to ESPN affiliate Bucknuts.com
He said, "I've always loved Ohio State and there were a lot of great schools out there but Ohio State was always on top and it's where I was most comfortable at. I really loved Notre Dame too. It was a tough decision but Ohio State is definitely the place I wanted to be."
The ecstatic Cardinal Mooney junior also said, "Words can't express how excited I am. I'm looking forward to having a chance to win a national championship at Ohio State but first I'm looking forward to focusing on my senior year and try to win another state title."
