What Athlon says

“Ohio State accumulated 54 sacks in 2019 but players responsible for over half of the production (32.5) won’t return next fall. The biggest departure up front is Chase Young (16.5 sacks), and it’s no secret he won’t be easy to replace. Harrison – a five-star recruit in the 2019 signing class – played in all 14 games last season and flashed potential with 3.5 sacks and 24 tackles (five for a loss). The Buckeyes will be counting on the Ohio native to take on an even bigger role in the trenches in 2020.”
