The 2022 season is just barely in our rearview mirror and as [autotag]Ohio State[/autotag] prepares for the spring, there is one spot on the offensive line there aren’t any questions at.
Guard [autotag]Donovan Jackson[/autotag] has lived up to his five-star billing in the 2021 class. He played in every game during his freshman year and became a starter this past season.
The experience and performance have many considering him one of the best in the country, and [autotag]Pro Football Focus[/autotag] also believes that is the case. Jackson was named as one of the top-10 returning interior offensive lineman for the 2023 season, ranking eighth overall.

Jackson is one of two players returning along the line. [autotag]Matthew Jones[/autotag] is the other. The Buckeyes will lean on their experience as they replace 60% of the starters in the unit from last season.
