YSU's Rock-Solid Senior OL David Metzler: Academic Ace with Ironman Durability
David Metzler, a 6-5, 320-pound senior offensive lineman for Youngstown State, is a proven starter who logged every snap in nine of 13 games at left guard in 2023 (YSU allowed just 18 sacks) and all 11 at left tackle in 2022, powering an offense averaging 202.6 rush yards/game and MVFC Offensive POY Jaleel McLaughlin[1][4]. A first-team Academic All-MVFC honoree with a Biology Pre-Med major, he brings elite intelligence, positional versatility (tackle to guard), no injury red flags, and relentless intensity—perfect for teams needing a smart, durable blocker who elevates the line and studies film like a coach[1][3].
