Why Carnell Tate’s Draft Drama Elevates Ohio State’s Jeremiah Smith to NFL Contender Status
So, the Ohio State Buckeyes snagged the college football crown just two years back—triumphing over Notre Dame—only to stumble last season, handing the Big Ten title to Indiana and a certain standout, Fernando Mendoza. Yet here we are, scratching our heads and wondering: can Ryan Day’s crew rise again by 2026, ready to reclaim their throne? The real magic behind Ohio State’s perennial prowess isn’t just coaching savvy; it’s that relentless knack for reeling in elite talent. And if you think the recent NFL draft’s top picks define who’s hot, consider this—Jeremiah Smith, the Buckeyes’ dazzling wide receiver, didn’t even leave early despite being a certifiable superstar. With jaw-dropping stats that make you wonder if he’s playing a different league altogether, Smith’s back for more—and college football analyst Greg McElroy isn’t shy about calling him “arguably the best player in college football, regardless of position.” Makes you rethink how we measure greatness, huh?
The Ohio State Buckeyes won College Football’s National Championship two years ago, beating Notre Dame in the title game. They surrendered that title as well as the Big Ten championship to Indiana and Fernando Mendoza last year, but it would not be a surprise to see Ryan Day’s team contend for yet another championship in 2026.
