On Friday it was revealed that former Ohio State linebacker James Laurinaitis would be returning to Columbus to join the football coaching staff as a graduate assistant coach. Naturally, Laurinaitis is slated to work with the team’s linebackers. The move comes less than a year after the legendary Buckeye linebacker joined the coaching staff of Marcus Freeman, another former Ohio State linebacker, at Notre Dame as a graduate assistant.
