Ohio State needed to replace three starting linebackers this offseason and the Buckeyes have found their guys: Pete Werner, Baron Browning and Malik Harrison.

Defensive coordinator Greg Schiano announced that trio will take the first snaps at linebacker this season, but expressed that there are more than three players worthy of first-team reps this season, and a rotation is likely.

Ohio State also expects former starting middle linebacker and team captain Tuf Borland back sooner than expected. Schiano said Borland "might be back this week" and is "well ahead of schedule" in his recovery from his Achilles injury.
