Fifth year senior DT Michael Hill will miss at least part of the first few games of Ohio State's 2017 campaign. OSU has a talented and deep defensive line, so the suspension should not hurt the Buckeyes. Still a shame to see this happen, especially to a senior who should be providing leadership. Prayers that he resolves his issues and can return to the squad and contribute:

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Ohio State football coach Urban Meyer announced in his Monday press conference that redshirt senior defensive tackle Michael Hill will be suspended for the first few games of the season.

Meyer declined to comment on the length or reason for Hill's suspension.

Last season, Hill started all 13 games and recorded 21 tackles and three TFLs at his DT spot.

Hill is one of six fifth-year seniors on the team.

His suspension means that OSU's defensive tackle depth will be tested at least in the first few games.

Schiano says this is the most talented d-line he's ever worked with, including the two season he spent in the NFL.
