Check out the updated roster here: http://www.ohiostatebuckeyes.com/sports/m-footbl/mtt/osu-m-footbl-mtt.html
The new numbers of our five early enrollees are:
- Tracy Sprinkle - 93
- Tyquan Lewis - 59
- Eli Apple - 13
- J.T. Barrett - 16
- Cam Burrows - 16
Additionally, Adam Griffin changed to #11, as well as Devn Smith to #9. Also, Evan Spencer is now #6.
*Edit: I'm not sure if they were listed before, but William Houston is now #32 and Purdue transfer Devin Hill is #46.
*Edit Again!: EzE will be #15 per twitter, Dontre's twitter says #1 (but we know Urban won't give that lightly). Marcus Baugh's twitter says #85, and we could easily see Billy Price as #54 (but maybe Urban will now hold anyone wearing that number to a higher standard as well!)







All the new numbers for the returning players are going to confuse me so much
Zeke is #15
did Devin Smith change his number?
nevermind... saw that Devin Smith changed his number to #9.
Freshman to dos:
1. Get a number. Check
2. Get on the field. Check
3. Lose that black stripe.
The postgame show is brought to you by... Christ, I can't find it. The hell with it...
shouldn't lose black stripe be before getting on the field?
He means practice field, I believe.
I should have worded it a little better- sorry...
The postgame show is brought to you by... Christ, I can't find it. The hell with it...
no problems!
Do the EE's get their black strips in Spring ball, or once the whole class has arrived for summer/fall practice?
Those who stay will be CHAMPIONS!

I don't know if these numbers will stick, seeing 9 available on defense and Apple was 9 in high school, and Perkins and Wood have the same defensive numbers. Then I remember reading that Jordan Hall was switching to #2 this year. Maybe its a go out and earn it thing. Which reminds me, why was the team not allowed to wear visors last year?
Yeah..I found it funny that Burrows wanted #6 on defense and it is still available but he didn't get it...same thing with Apple and #9
I think Perkins will go back to #25 now that Wood is trying to comeback. Hall and Smith seems to be sticking with their numbers from last year
I know Wilson wore #14 a lot in high school so he might get that on when he gets here...wonder what # marshall gets..would love to see him get #1..but I doubt that is given out
Stay golden, Ponyboy.
kids change their numbers often
I really like apple in 13 for some reason. Good cb # imo
O'Deez330
stark county football
Also, Spencer is now #6.
Well from what I can tell these numbers are still available on offense:
#1
#3
#4
#8
#11
#14
#15---Elloitt
#17
#20
#23
Stay golden, Ponyboy.
fwiw EzE said he was going to wear #4 this year on twitter
I think he came back later and said it would be #15. Don't quote me on it though
Stay golden, Ponyboy.
his twitter has a 15 before zeke's name now and dontre has #1 on his twitter handle
I feel like Wilson should get #1. No particular reason other than it just seems like he should wear number 1.
Who knows if anyone will wear #1 on offense and I'd be surprised if someone did and it was a freshman. Remember last year when Roby had to prove long and hard to Urban that he deserved #1? I don't see a freshman getting that number unless they have a john simon-esque work ethic.
he has #1 in his twitter handle now so you look correct.
any guesses on what number jalin will wear?
I am going to go with #8
Stay golden, Ponyboy.
I think 1, 3, or 23 would look amazing on Marshall.
#5? Or is that taken?
/s
Probably 8 for Marshall and 3 for Wilson, even though you didn't ask that, just thought I'd throw that one in there
I think 8 on Marshall just won't look that good... 8 is just a clunky, non-athletic #
the lawyers for number 8's everywhere will soon be in contact.......:)
Battles are sometimes won by generals; wars are nearly always won by sergeants and privates. Football is no different, the guys down in the trenches win the games, not the coach.
Ha ha ha, DeVier Posey was a bad ass #8 though!
definitely. roy hall and rob rose though...
Although Wilson did wear 14 in high school before switching to #2
Stay golden, Ponyboy.
Marcus Baugh will be #85 per his twitter account.
#54 is going to DT- Billy Price......
I bet Jalin switches to # 7 in 2014, after Jordan Hall is gone.
Funny
I admit, I have mixed feelings about someone wearing #54 this year. That being said, I hope Mr. Price has awesome John Simon mojo along with his number.
Story time, at Marketplace on 10th on Friday waiting on my order and the girl started to laugh. Naturally I moved closer assuming she had a funny name. She giggled as she announced Mr. Sprinkle. Boy the look on her face when Tracy stepped forward to claim his pizza, priceless
Who do you think will wear #6 on defense?
I thought Burrows would get it...maybe he still will...
Stay golden, Ponyboy.
