Spoke to the Fourth Wiseman who chimed in with a quick report
"Justin Hilliard seems to finally be healthy and this is a big spring for him. Hilliard is regaining his explosiveness coming off a plethora of injuries and is currently running with the 2's at the MIKE linebacker position behind Worley.
- This may not manifest itself until 2018, but the coaching staff loves Malik Harrison. He arrived at Ohio State as a very raw but very explosive athlete that wanted to play offense and thought he was an offensive player. Sometimes when you move those guys, you lose them mentally, but not Malik. He has bought in to being a linebacker and while there are still some things he needs to clean up, he has been a sponge that absorbs all of the coaching that he has been given. He's the best athlete in the linebacker room and there are a lot of freaks in that room right now. The coaches love his long term outlook here at OSU."
