With the commitment of four-star cornerback Calvin Simpson-Hunt, Ohio State has landed a physical and speedy cornerback capable of running with any receiver he's lined up against.
The four-star prospect had just finished a breakout junior season and picked up a plethora of offers in the spring, including Alabama, LSU, Baylor, Florida, Notre Dame, Oklahoma, Texas and USC. Problem was, he was already committed to Texas Tech and had been since November.
With Simpson-Hunt in the fold, the Buckeyes have added a speedy, physical cornerback to their 2023 cornerback corps.Simpson-Hunt may be a star football player, but he’s also an excellent track athlete. From watching his film, the 6-foot, 175-pound cornerback’s speed is evident, as he officially recorded a time of 10.67 seconds in the 100-meter dash and 21.77 seconds in the 200-meter dash last March. He also recorded a mark of six feet in the high jump and has run a 4.38-second 40-yard dash.
Simpson-Hunt excels at guarding a top opposing wideout lined up on the outside and is efficient with using his length to press him and disrupt his burst off the line of scrimmage, even knocking some of them to the ground before they even truly go through their route progression. He’s equally adept at shedding blocks on run plays. He shows excellent ball skills in defending jump balls, and is hardly ever going to get beat deep by a wideout as evident by his elite speed.
