247Sports believes this Ohio State defensive lineman is in line for a huge 2023

We saw a glimpse of the game wrecker Ohio State defensive end J.T. Tuimoloau can be in his monster performance against Penn State last season.

Many expect the rising Buckeye junior to take another step this fall, and you can add 247Sports Brad Crawford to that list. He singled out multiple defensive stars primed for a monster season and included Tuimoloau.

Crawford noted the performance in Happy Valley, claiming “it was an individual performance that stood out nationally.” Although he doesn’t give much more of a reason aside from Tuimolau’s massive game and former five-star pedigree, the Buckeye should terrorize opposing offensive linemen and quarterbacks this fall.

So far in his two seasons with the Buckeyes, Tuimoloau has improved his stats including tackles, sacks, interceptions, and forced fumbles in each season. If the trend continues, All-American honors could be coming his way.
