Unhappy with his performance to end the 2022 season, Lathan Ransom is using criticism to fuel his goal of becoming “the most consistent safety in the country.”
Ransom returned to Ohio State to right some of those wrongs, prove he’s better than what he showed at the end of last season and help the Buckeyes reach the goals they fell short of in 2022. And he’s using any criticism as motivation.
“I felt a little rushed . And then now I get time to get my body to feel 100 percent, my mind to feel 100 percent,” Ransom said. “And then get out there and just get with the guys and get a lot of reps. I mean, the ones are taking a lot of reps. And just take advantage of those reps and get better as a whole defense. … This is my second winter since I've been here. So I'm really excited about that. So I'm just trying to take advantage of that, take advantage of the reps.
Ransom will also benefit from operating under the same leadership for a second straight season, a luxury he never previously had at Ohio State. The Buckeyes have undergone frequent coaching changes at defensive coordinator and in the secondary over the past few years, but Jim Knowles and Perry Eliano are back in 2023.
Ransom won’t have to shift positions, either. As coaching regimes turned over, Ransom bounced to several safety positions in his first three seasons with the Buckeyes. Ransom had a career-best season in Knowles’ boundary safety role this past year, but with starting free safety Ronnie Hickman departing for the NFL, some thought he might fill that vacancy in 2023.
