In one of his media day interviews, he said he ran the 40 yard dash for an official 4.35. He is the fastest Linebacker in College football, if not one of the fastest players overall. :-)
i player kicker freshman and sophmore year in plantation high with ryan when he was a senior. dammn time flies by good guy down to earth and a great leader cant wait to see him on sundays
Shazier is a monster. The tape shows the 4th down stops against Wisconsin and Michigan where Shazier comes up big. The guy makes plays he is a finisher!
wata beast... ryan, all us buckeye fans have nuthin but love for ya after the guts u showed us n that wisconsin gm. now lets go win us a national championship
i knew when he decommitted from Florida and announced the buckeye flip it was on. little at the time did i know his coach urban would soon join him on his journey. beast
Ryan Shazier is straight Thug! Not in a derogatory gang-banger sense, but in a "I'm gonna shatter your vertebrae" sense. He benched 225 25x at the combine! Just needs to bulk up a lil
This guy looks like the next Bowman. I remember when my Niners drafted Bowman everyone said he was too small to play ILB in our 3-4 and look at him now. Shazier and Bowman are both athletic freaks who are just as good at getting off of blocks and making plays in the running game as they are in coverage. the 2014 draft will have a lot of very good LB's but Shazier looks like the #1 LB to me. between Shazier and Mosley it will be a battle for the top LB
It depends on which defense you run. Te'o is a 3-4 ILB, and was always back in coverage. In addition because of Te'o and All-American NT Louis Nix, most teams avoided busting it up the middle for obvious reasons. Despite this, Te'o was still finding the ball all over the field.
Man I hate wisconsin, but I gotta give credit where it's due, great awareness and incredible grab by that Wisconsin lineman at the end of the vid. Fumble recovery easily could have been returned for a touchdown .
It's funny you compare him to Bowman because that's exactly what I saw too. The way he fights through traffic and just lays the wood you can tell he has great run-read instincts. He'll put on some weight and be real good.
hahaha I'm a steelers fan and he's with the steelers now. Browns had a great offseason and draft though. Should be a great battle for the AFC north, all four teams have upgraded really well.
Similar to Alex Ogletree , played MLB in college and will probably be a 4-3 OLB in the pros and he's athletic as fuck . He's a high potential prospect for sure .
Well Shazier's 40 time is probably in the 4.5 range. He has the ability to go to the draft after junior year and either drop 5 pounds and play strong safety or gain 10 pounds and play outside linebacker. Shazier is a more valuable player and he's never scared to hit some one the way Te'o was scared to hit Lacy.
Kids a straight monster...I'd hate to go up against him but it sucks he went to the steelers...philly could've used him alot...but oh well he's a great athlete and one of the best buckeyes ever!
Ive never seen a LB (at OSU at least) accelerate to the Ball carrier like Shazier. I like the Laurinatis and Hawks out there but when they compare the 2013 Recruit Mike Mitchell to Shazier, I hope to hell they right
niners should draft him in the first round and covert him to strong safety hes definitely has the speed and hit power that the niners need on the back end with whitner most likely leaving
I'm glad he's a Buck, and hopefully a future Detroit Lion. This dude is a beast!!! Could be one of the best LB in the nation!!! I think he's gonna be better than Manti Te'o. Hopefully we'll spend our next year's first round pick on him, cause next year's draft is gonna be loaded with LB's, and our LB's are garbage. They don't make plays, and they can't tackle. He would look great behind Suh, Fairley and Ziggy. GO BUCKS!!! GO LIONS!!!
As close as Chris Borland to what? On a serious note, if you want to say "every aspect" you actually have to consider "every aspect." Shazier is better in almost every statistical category. Hell, you could even make a case for their draft projections.
That's a BAAAD MAN! LOVE THIS MAN ESPECIALLY WHEN HE WORE THE BUCKEYES ON HIS BACK ALL THE WAY TILL NOW STILL ONE OF MY FAV LINEBACKERS OF ALL TIME
He is so underrated it's amazing... He will make tons of noise this year.
you know how long i've been waiting for a shazier 2012 highlight tape?? thank you lethalnuts. favorite player on the defense.
awe man this might be the best line up i seen for the Steelers since the 70s, Tomlin did a good job this year.
Scary thing about this video is it's only his sophmore year, can't wait to see what he is like next season, could be one best linebackers next year.
In one of his media day interviews, he said he ran the 40 yard dash for an official 4.35. He is the fastest Linebacker in College football, if not one of the fastest players overall. :-)
He's the best linebacker in all of college football !

Hello Ryan Shazier, welcome to the NFL, we regret to inform you that you cannot wear a different jersey number every game...
caitlin casasanta 😂😂😂😂
Or he was honoring a teammate
great music, nice to see a highlight video with good music taste
finally a shazier highlight video!!! thank you!!!!!!!
Shazier is a monster. The tape shows the 4th down stops against Wisconsin and Michigan where Shazier comes up big. The guy makes plays he is a finisher!
wata beast... ryan, all us buckeye fans have nuthin but love for ya after the guts u showed us n that wisconsin gm. now lets go win us a national championship
Smart man. He's always moving forward, closing the distance between he and the runner.
Talent is off the charts. Should be a fun 2013~!! GO BUCKS~!!
1:25 incredible play by a great player
i knew when he decommitted from Florida and announced the buckeye flip it was on. little at the time did i know his coach urban would soon join him on his journey. beast
Marvelous career sir, marvelous
Welcome to Steeler Nation Ryan Shazier!! This kid is going to be a beast next to Timmons!!

Oh! Thanks for the clarification:) now I'll know to use that. You can just tell how fast he is by watching him.
It depends on which defense you run. Te'o is a 3-4 ILB, and was always back in coverage. In addition because of Te'o and All-American NT Louis Nix, most teams avoided busting it up the middle for obvious reasons. Despite this, Te'o was still finding the ball all over the field.
Love me some Shazier!
Glad to have him in Pittsburgh.
Him & junior galette on different side #Beast
That would be something serious!!! WHO DAT!!!!
Most underrated LB in the country
This video is from his sophomore season.
I would love either Perryman or Shazier to come to GB!
Steelers here is your ILB
I think he will be the best OLB in the nation this upcoming season.
2013 - here we come!
Man I hate wisconsin, but I gotta give credit where it's due, great awareness and incredible grab by that Wisconsin lineman at the end of the vid. Fumble recovery easily could have been returned for a touchdown .
This guy is super physical. He's a definete first round pick for 2014 draft
Beast!
wow and wow
This guy is going round 1 for sure after he confirmed his athletic ability at his pro day .
He would look great as a Steeler!
I saw :)
BEAST!
Relentless and Ferocious he belongs in NFC West! welcome to AZ ;)!
i thought for a first rounder that we didnt need his position too badly...but this guy is just so FAST!!!
NFC West! Ryan Dean Shazier along with Donte D. Whitner & The 49ers!
wow, thats what i call a football player
He is returning for this season, right?
You saved us a win bro
Shazier is a fucking monster, my favorite player on defense
That's what we r missing now 2020. The silver bullet squads.
Compare Shaziers junior statistics (this video is from his junior season) to Manti Teos senior season statisitics. Shazier wins every single one.
Welcome to the steel curtain
It's funny you compare him to Bowman because that's exactly what I saw too. The way he fights through traffic and just lays the wood you can tell he has great run-read instincts. He'll put on some weight and be real good.
As a Browns fan, if he ends up in the Division, I'll be sick....
Are you sick?
hahaha I'm a steelers fan and he's with the steelers now. Browns had a great offseason and draft though. Should be a great battle for the AFC north, all four teams have upgraded really well.
Browns second round pick, PLEASE!!! :)
Man this dude is fast, he definitely has to hit the gym for the NFL Level but his speed is really gonna help
Similar to Alex Ogletree , played MLB in college and will probably be a 4-3 OLB in the pros and he's athletic as fuck . He's a high potential prospect for sure .
No, he did not play MLB, he played WLB, curtis grant played Mike Backer.
would like to have him in miami ! Phinsup!
insane
I have seen a dude get bounced out of bounds before...
But I aint never seen a dude bounce back!!! 1:36
ft laudedale FLORIDA born and raised we are the best

Actually, Shazier has run a laser 4.4 before, he's just that fast.
This man will be doing big things in 2013......B1G THINGS
Swag. Man has swag.
Ive never seen a LB (at OSU at least) accelerate to the Ball carrier like Shazier. I like the Laurinatis and Hawks out there but when they compare the 2013 Recruit Mike Mitchell to Shazier, I hope to hell they right

welcome to pittsburgh
Along with Cam Heyward!
called it lol
good call
ridiculous speed
Product of Plantation High School, what a beast!
I'm glad he's a Buck, and hopefully a future Detroit Lion. This dude is a beast!!! Could be one of the best LB in the nation!!! I think he's gonna be better than Manti Te'o. Hopefully we'll spend our next year's first round pick on him, cause next year's draft is gonna be loaded with LB's, and our LB's are garbage. They don't make plays, and they can't tackle. He would look great behind Suh, Fairley and Ziggy. GO BUCKS!!! GO LIONS!!!
Little did he know 😔
Stud! Shazier! Hit at 1:28 . He said sit down boy!
GAMEDAY!!!!
RDS in full effect....look out 2013.
Next great Linebacker since James Laurinitis.
BEST LB IN THE NATION! GO BUCKS
thats a BAD MAN
Manti Te'o was only one more tragic story from a Heisman.
the second coming of james harrison
I played with this dude in highschool he use to beat our wr in dey was running 4.4
Melvin Gordon hit him harder than Shazier hit him. Brilliant linebacker, I would've loved to see him and Borland on the same team.
Sorry. When the RB goes down on the spot, the LB wins.
All he needs to do is Bulk up little bit more, so he can shed blocks when he needs to.
Without losing his speed.
Guy strength is high. His size is of a db but he is very powerful
dude is a dogg. and he was a true soph this year. Imagine his next 2 season's with the buckeyes
Different position, different stats.
SHAZIER = BEAST. GO BUCKS!
Funniest youtube comment i've seen in a long time.
One of the quickest Lbs that Ohio State has had for a while...
Hope the Saints draft him! He needs to be wearing black and gold, because he could help Rob Ryan's D! Come to New Orleans! Who Dat!
Undersized and all, he will still be a first round pick in 2014
Bills!He and Kiko Alonso would be awesome
Go Bucks!!
Cowboys need to draft him at 16
Hopefully a future New York Giant
NEEDEM TO BE A PACKER!!!!
Dawg wore 2 different number on his jersey
He wore #48 for the one game against Penn State, in memory of his high school friend who died after a battle with muscular dystrophy.
actually 3
I'll never forget the hit against cal. That hit was hard. And shazier is better than te'o. Teo only had more interceptions than shazier
Lions
His face looks like a young James Harrison..
Primarily plays ILB
I believe you mean he has YoloSwagMuffins
he looks a lot like Eddie George in the face
He's not even as close as Chris Borland. He might be taller, and black, but Borland is way better in every aspect.
As close as Chris Borland to what? On a serious note, if you want to say "every aspect" you actually have to consider "every aspect." Shazier is better in almost every statistical category. Hell, you could even make a case for their draft projections.
lol
wow his career is over already guess steelers made the right pick lol
mojo15568
Shaziers life is over
Shazier was better than Te'o in every category except, INT's. Yet he got almost no national recognition.
He has better numbers than Te'o and he's faster and stronger
