Not long after the conclusion of the 2018 season, the Buckeyes began making coaching changes needed to replace Urban Meyer and the coaches who left for other opportunities. One such coach brought into the fold was Al Washington who will look to improve a unit which had its share of struggles last season.
Some units, such as the receiving corps or the offensive line, are losing at least two starters from last season. However, the linebacker unit is only losing Dante Booker, who only played in six games but still made a difference and was signed by the Arizona Cardinals as an undrafted free agent.
