Official Site: Buckeyes charge into 2012 spring drills

From this photo gallery, Travis Howard looks very impressive. He looks like he had a good winter.

Hoping he takes that next step.

These are raw photos, they'll be cropped, enhanced & watermarked later. Wanted to give you guys a quick fix while I work on the full set.

Gallery finished. I had another engagement so I wasn't able to stay for the action shots, but I believe I captured just about everyone.

Pittman certainly caught the eye of the coaches:

What's the deal with the orange helmets?

Finally back and editing...

I was so focused on getting a shot of every notable guy that I missed these potential recruits in the background. Anyone recognize them?

No clue. Mind informing me.

 

[jwinslow]

I don't know. Where's the out of focus shot (typically focused on the background bodies instead of the player in the foreground) when I need it?

What's the deal with the orange helmets?

I believe it is to switch teams, so a defensive player can be used for an offensive unit (usually special teams).

Nike Pro Combat throwback alternate yarmulke.

Urban is a big dude too. I didnt realize he was that tall.

"Oh! Sevon! It was so cute when you ripped that running back's head off!"

Thought it was a try-out for the Browns?

Good way to disengage tight off of the tackle by Simon, and Great pad level on the inside swim by Big Hank daddy

Looks like Meyer is coaching the special teams (at least punters) from the first couple O-Zone shots.

Haven't read his quotes from yesterday, eh? :)

Does Coach Vrabel get crappy food and garden hose water if he doesn't bring it for winner/loser day?

Saw a tweet by Vrabel that he was excited about his first spring practice as a coach.

Puts things into perspective that this time last year JT was still our coach...
