CJ Hicks was one of the most sought-after linebackers in the 2022 recruiting cycle. A 5-star recruit, Hicks brings a unique combination of size, speed, and agility to the field.

Tony Gerdeman of BuckeyeHuddle.com joins host Tom Orr to discuss his thoughts on a new spot where Hicks could play this fall, plus the impact of new roles for assistant coaches, and much more.
