While Egbuka, Tate and Rodgers had their moments this past weekend (Inniss was absent because of an undisclosed ailment), Smith stole the show. The 6-foot-3, 215-pound wide receiver lived up to his reputation as the No. 1 overall prospect in the 2024 class, making multiple impressive catches that garnered oooooooohs and aaaaaahs from Ohio State students.
Ohio State head coach Ryan Day praised Smith in a press conference after the practice.
“I’m gonna be careful about what I say, but he’s been a pleasure to watch, and we’re all really excited about his future,” Day said. “If he continues on the path that he’s on, he’s gonna play a lot of football and certainly have a chance to start as well.”
