A look at Ohio State's redshirt freshmen entering 2022 (247sports.com)


ANDRE TURRENTINE, S
247Sports recruiting ranking: 4-star, No. 9 overall safety
Height, weight: 5-foot-11, 195 pounds
2021 experience: Andre Turrentine was the highest-rated safety and the third-highest rated member of the secondary in Ohio State's class. The Nashville, Tennessee native saw action in four games, but only played on defense in one contest, the blowout win at Maryland, playing 10 snaps but recording no statistics.
2022 outlook: Heading into his second season with the Buckeyes, Turrentine will battle to be in one of the three safety spots in Knowles' defense. While this is a deep position group for the Scarlet and Gray, the change in scheme opens more opportunities for the players. If Turrentine has a big spring and shows he can help the defense, expect him to see more playing time next year.

Had 9 tackles in their spring game

Even OSU does that black stripe crap that Butch did!?

 

[therickbol]

I wonder where he projects in our system. His speed was not an asset. My read is that he is a more talented version of McCollough. Any experts know where he fits?

Yeah that would be my assumption. But I am not an expert. So was curious if that was accurate.

Could be a good slot corner. Everything you read on him talks about how physical he is

New players have to "earn" the right to lose a black stripe of tape from their helmet (indicating they're now a real member of the team). We had a juco transfer OT that was supposed to be a high four star that never did lose his black stripe (and never played a down here either as I recall).

i agree


smart, good instincts, physical and also really solid in the run game.


the more versatility we have the better. We need them all bc of our style of play.

i think butch did a thing that a lot of other schools do. it was just new to us.

 

[VFL1993]

Is he a pure safety or does he have the ability to play corner?

I believe he has the ability to play corner.

He actually gained additional stripes and eventually looked like his helmet was sporting a mohawk.

he was so physical he rode the bench

Fair enough

They had to get him a karate belt to add stripes to, because they ran out of helmet room.
