10/11/20 - RB Trey Sermon, rSr/2021, Ohio State

The rapid return of Master Teague from his own Achilles injury in the spring - on top of Sermon's arrival - gives Ohio State two potential upside options when it once feared it might have none. Neither Sermon nor the Buckeyes want him to be simply a healthy option. They want, as they have at so many other positions, a game-changer. According to Alford, one element determines whether a back joins the ranks of those greats Sermon mentioned. "Consistency - sheer consistency of what you're doing," Alford said. "You can't be on that roller coaster and the highs and lows. Obviously you've got to be able to make plays, but they all are capable of making plays or again, they wouldn't be here. But your consistency level of making plays when an opportunity presents itself - and then obviously making a play when maybe something's not there."

Alford quickly noticed ways Ohio State could make Sermon a better player. For one, at 6-1, 215 pounds, Sermon's frame is beneficial in pass protection and as a receiving target. The problem is, he also has a tendency to run tall - reverting to a stand-up style that can slow him down and make him easier to knock off balance. Alford said numerous drills can help backs lower their pad levels, such as having them duck down to run through chutes. In other drills the Buckeye staff will use various padded instruments to hit the backs as the run, forcing them to adjust with a lower center of balance. - Cleveland Plain Dealer
