  Ohio State will have at least one returning starting safety for next fall. Lathan Ransom, who started nine games as the strong safety this past season, is returning to school, putting off entering the NFL draft after being eligible for the first time. His father, Nathan, confirmed his return in a text message with The Dispatch on Monday, the deadline for underclassmen to file paperwork for early entry into the draft.

Ransom overcame a broken leg to break out as a redshirt sophomore, a gruesome injury suffered while covering a kickoff in last year's Rose Bowl win over Utah, and stepped up as one of the most productive players on an improved defense under new coordinator Jim Knowles. He finished with 74 tackles, the third-most among the Buckeyes' defenders behind only run-stuffing linebackers Tommy Eichenberg and Steele Chambers, and was a semifinalist for the Jim Thorpe Award as the nation's top defensive back. - The Columbus Dispatch
