Explosive Ohio State linebacker with verified production and track speed
Tarvos Alford is an Ohio State linebacker whose appeal goes beyond raw athleticism: he brings verified speed, a strong high school résumé, and the kind of downhill juice that fits Big Ten football. In 2023, he posted 114 tackles, 12 tackles for loss, and 4 sacks while earning TC Palm Defensive Player of the Year honors, and recruiting profiles list him as a 2025 signee with Ohio State. His biggest differentiators are range, burst, and play-making upside; the main question is how quickly that athletic profile turns into consistent college impact.
