INDIANAPOLIS — New Ohio State offensive line coach Tyler Bowen has been talked about as a run-game specialist and dogged recruiter since he was hired by the Buckeyes last month. Turns out both of those things are apt descriptions for Bowen as he prepares to take over the offensive line room and help continue to progress a run game that was exceptionally good last year. It's hard to hear the comments made by former Virginia Tech tailback Bhayshul Tuten, who was the leading rusher for the Hokies in each of the last two seasons when Bowen was calling plays and fine-tuning the run game, and not come away excited about what Bowen will bring to Columbus.
