- Ohio State football: Five players make ESPN’s top 100 for 2022
- Marvin Harrison Jr., WR. The best wide receiver in college football, Harrison was our staff’s unanimous choice as Ohio State’s best player. A unanimous All-American in 2022, Harrison is the true prototype for his position, possessing every trait a team wants in a No. 1 receiver and forcing every opposing defense to game plan around him.
- Emeka Egbuka, WR. Egbuka would be the No. 1 wide receiver on any other team in college football. A 1,151-yard, 10-touchdown receiver in 2022, Egbuka’s combination of open-field agility, speed, size and toughness makes him one of the nation’s most dangerous playmakers whether he’s catching a pass downfield, getting the ball in the backfield on a running play or returning a punt.
- Tommy Eichenberg, LB. Eichenberg was Ohio State’s defensive MVP in 2022, becoming the first Buckeye in eight years to record 120 tackles in a season. The instinctive second-time captain is one of the nation’s best middle linebackers and will be the leader of Ohio State’s defense once again.
- JT Tuimoloau, DE. Tuimoloau was Ohio State’s most productive defensive lineman in 2022 and showed the ability to take a game over, specifically in his two-sack, two-interception performance against Penn State.
- Denzel Burke. CB 6-1/193 SR. Burke was already one of the best cornerbacks in college football last season, leading the way for Ohio State to lead the nation in passing defense by shutting down his side of the field in coverage.
- TreVeyon Henderson. RB 5-10/208 SR. Arguably the best running back in college football, Henderson offers a rare combination of explosiveness and agility that makes him one of the nation’s most dynamic offensive players.
- Caleb Downs. S 6-0/205 SO. The nation’s best freshman in 2023, Downs is a strong candidate to be college football’s best safety in 2024. A star in his only season at Alabama, where he recorded 107 tackles and excelled in coverage to earn second-team All-American honors, Downs will be an immediate difference-maker as Ohio State’s starting free safety after transferring to OSU in January.
- Jack Sawyer. DE 6-4/260 SR. Sawyer finished the 2023 season stronger than any other Buckeye, recording 7.5 tackles for loss with five sacks in Ohio State’s final three games.

- No. 88 - Zach Harrison, Defensive End. What ESPN says. “Harrison had 33 tackles (22 solo) with eight TFLs and three sacks for Ohio State during his junior year.
- No. 36 - Paris Johnson Jr. What ESPN says. “Johnson played all 13 games last season at right guard, but with left tackle Thayer Munford gone, Johnson is going to be the new starting tackle for the Buckeyes.
- No. 7 - TreVeyon Henderson, Running Back. What ESPN says. “As a true freshman, Henderson ran for 1,272 yards and 15 touchdowns last season. He was sixth in yards per rush among all FBS running backs and was No. 12 in yards after first contact.
- No. 4 - Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Wide Receiver. What ESPN says. “Smith-Njigba broke out last season, even with Garrett Wilson and Chris Olave on the roster. Smith-Njigba led the team with 1,606 receiving yards and had nine receiving touchdowns.
