Tressel Presser: Sabino likely redshirt , Williams to play

• OneBuckeye

  

  Sabino will likely redshirt this year. Not sure the reason behind it. I suppose because he is most likely to start with sweat next year.
  
  Also Nate Williams is "likely" to play vs Miami , but won't play the whole game.
  
  Also said Rod Smith is not an automatic redshirt.

  Interesting news about Sabino, just cannot crack the LB core.

  At first, I was PISSED about the Sabino decision when I read it last Thursday. However, the more I sit on it, the more I like it. Sabino is a MLB by trade, not a SAM backer. This gives him 2 years to start at the middle instead of sitting behind Ross this year. The more compelling thing that plays into this, is this should signal a move to either the outside or the star position for Storm Klein.

  Or Storm could overtake Sabino in the middle. I thinkDorian Bell is a beast and I could see the LBs next year being Bell Klien Sweat. Although I think Klien is a better fit at the star, and I would think Sabino would most likely beat him out. However Storm could always redshirt next year too.

  I honestly don't see Storm beating out Etienne. A kid like Sabino isn't just going to redshirt for the hell of it. The whole preseason he was playing SAM, which was out of position for him.
