Where is Jack Sawyer? The former five-star recruit never really took that Year 2 jump some may have anticipated. His raw numbers were fine for a player who was third on the OSU defensive end hierarchy - 24 tackles, 6.5 tackles for loss and a team-high 4. 5 sacks on 329 snaps - but there was never that big moment we saw from guys like Michael Hall Jr. and J.T. Tuimoloau. Sawyer arrived as a guy known for getting after the passer and when he's been asked to do so he's shown flashes of his upside. The probl em is that his second year was spent splitting time between continuing his development as an edge rusher while also learning a new position in Jim Knowles' defense.The intrigue with the Jack and what it could be once turned into a Leo is part of w hat made the Knowles' hire noteworthy. The problem is we never really saw that come to fruition in 2022 and it's fair to question if that's a result of Sawyer possibly not being the best fit. "It can definitely present problems being able to show differe nt fronts, which I think is key to what the Jack does," Sawyer said before the Sugar Bowl. "But I also feel like we can be really effective in just our base front getting after guys." Sawyer is coming into Year 3 expected to start alongside Tuimoloau. Do es that mean he spends less time at the Jack, or could we see that role become a bigger part of the defense now that he's been learning it for a year? - Cleveland Plain Dealer

Jack Sawyer's freshman season suffers by comparison to his spring game debut. He terrorized mostly backup linemen and recorded three sacks that day. The buzz about the edge rusher from Pickerington North grew to a deafening roar. He compiled three sacks and a couple of quarterback hurries at the lower end of the defensive end rotation. While classmate J.T. Tuimoloau came in more physically prepared for an expanded role, Sawyer was limited to a more specialized pass-rush identity. Yet that identity is ch anging at the same time as Sawyer's body.He told cleveland.com he has gained 35 pounds since arriving at OSU in January 2021. He carries that extra weight well, distributing it across his 6-4 frame and impressive wingspan. Johnson said Sawyer gain ed 10 pounds to 265 since last season. Sawyer, though, said his most crucial gains have come in adjusting to the speed of the game. "Just playing fast, and I think that was our problem when we first got here is we were thinking too much," Sawyer said. "O bviously we all need to get a little bigger and stronger. But I think just playing fast was a key for all of us in our grade. Right now I feel like we're really playing fast and we're back to how we used to be." - Cleveland Plain Dealer

Rated by some as the top high school football player in the country, and that's even though he sat out his senior season in the Columbus suburb of Pickerington because of the pandemic. Committed to the Buckeyes during his sophomore season, Sawyer is a 6- foot-5 pass rusher who has added 30 pounds since arriving on campus, defensive line coach Larry Johnson said. "Expectations are very high because he's a local guy, but I think he still has to get on the field and play," Johnson said. "He hasn't played fo otball in almost a year and a half now, and spring football doesn't really count." - AP College Football
