A Buckeye who 'other leaders go to for advice,' Tyler Friday earned captain status for OSU through the leadership and resolve he showed while recovering from last year's ACL tear.
Just three Ohio State defenders earned the distinction of team captain ahead of the 2022 season, and only one from its veteran-laden defensive line.
The announcement was just as surprising for Friday’s parents, who might have worried their son had suffered another preseason setback when he alerted them that he had something to tell them after practice. After all, it was nearly a year to the day Friday suffered a season-ending injury in 2021.“It was a crazy reaction from my parents. They wasn't expecting that at all,” Friday said.
Sophomore defensive end J.T. Tuimoloau didn’t know Friday long before his injury. But everything he’s seen from the veteran since that point has only proven his leadership ability as Friday has taken several of Ohio State’s young linemen under his wing over the past year. As unfortunate as it was, Friday’s injury – and the mental resolve he displayed while recovering from it – only strengthened his leadership ability. Rather than sulk amid a season lost, Friday remained an integral part of Ohio State’s defensive line room, whether those outside the program could see it or not.
