Ian Moore, a freshman offensive tackle for Ohio State, reflects on his first year with the team, including playing in the national championship game. He discusses the challenges of adapting to a new level of play, the importance of mental maturity, and the lessons he learned from his teammates' resilience in the face of injuries. Moore also looks forward to the upcoming season, where he will likely compete for the starting right tackle spot.
Still, being part of a national championship team in his freshman year was a surreal experience for the 6-foot-6, 309-pound offensive tackle.Eleven WarriorsWhen Moore came to OSU, he realized he needed a lot of technique refinement and had to adapt to Ohio State’s offensive scheme.
Moore played in four games this season for Ohio State, including the College Football Playoff win against Tennessee in December, primarily working at right tackle. His redshirt season provided plenty of lessons, including how his teammates on the offensive line handled adversity when they lost two starters to season-ending injuries.
Moore said he learned a lot from Donovan Jackson’s season in particular. With Jackson moving from his natural position of guard to tackle, Moore realized that he may need to be flexible at other positions besides right tackle going forward if he wants to see the field. He said he admires what Jackson accomplished in a pressure-filled situation, and got work in at other positions in practice once the injuries started to pile up.
