Michigan State wasn't the only team to hold a spring game draft Wednesday. Ohio State head coach Jim Tressel, who passed on the idea to Spartans head man Mark Dantonio, oversaw the Buckeyes' selections for the spring game on Saturday at Ohio Stadium.
Some notables for each squad.
SCARLET
- Running back Dan "Boom" Herron
- Wide receivers DeVier Posey, Lamaar Thomas and Dane Sanzenbacher
- Quarterback Joe Bauserman
- Safety Anderson Russell
- Linebackers Austin Spitler and Tyler Moeller
- Offensive tackles Jim Cordle and Mike Adams
- Defensive tackle Doug Worthington
- Defensive end Thaddeus Gibson
GRAY
- Quarterback Terrelle Pryor
- Running back Brandon Saine
- Safety Kurt Coleman
- Linebackers Etienne Sabino and Brian Rolle
- Tight end Jake Stoneburner (Tressel's favorite from the spring) and Jake Ballard
- Brother tandems Justin and Zach Boren and Ross and Adam Homan
- Wide receiver Ray Small
- Defensive end Cameron Heyward
If you're wondering why Tressel wore sunglasses to the draft, Ohio State is hoping to create a beach-day atmosphere at The Shoe on Saturday, with temperatures expected to exceed 80 degrees.
