Ohio State star safety Caleb Downs gave his reaction on Monday to the departure of defensive coordinator Jim Knowles, who left for Penn State.

The Ohio State Buckeyes star Caleb Downs issued a sincere admission about former defensive coordinator Jim Knowles' decision to leave the school for a job with the Penn State Nittany Lions.

Penn State made a big-time hire by poaching Jim Knowles from Ohio State. Knowles was the defensive coordinator at Ohio State for the last three seasons before taking the same role at Penn State after Ohio State won this year's national title.
