Blocking Mitchell Melton at Student Appreciation Day 10 days ago looked like a waking nightmare for Ohio State’s offensive tackles.
The fifth-year senior backup defensive end invaded the backfield constantly, putting pressure on quarterbacks, grabbing a sack or two and blowing up plays.
“I think for a majority of the spring I’ve been feeling more confident in my abilities,” Melton said. “Even with everything that’s happened in the past, I still think I have a lot to give and a lot to give to this program.”
A lot has certainly happened to Melton in his first four years with the Buckeyes.
