If we can get proper weight distribution and conditioning down, Carter will be playing earlier rather than later.

A year in the S&C program will do him wonders. He's got it all and just needs to trim down and redistribute some weight, all the tools are there to be elite.

Too soon old, too late smart
Anyone 'in the know', know how he's doing during spring ball? Know it's far-fetched that he'd be running with the ones so quickly, but haven't heard his name mentioned in the OL vignettes about tOSU's OL outlook. Hearing the twins names, which is good, and some of the RS freshmen, but was just wondering....thanks

He’s currently running with the 3s. His OL alignment is:
LT Lowe LG Jake Cook, C Simon Lorentz, RG Jayvon McFadden and RT Deontae Armstrong

Better Know a Buckeye: Carter Lowe’s Size and Athleticism Could Be the Cornerstones to Develop Him Into a Stout Left Tackle For Ohio State
Carter Lowe can lean on his athleticism and size while developing his body off the field before taking over at left tackle for Ohio State.
Better Know a Buckeye: Carter Lowe’s Size and Athleticism Could Be the Cornerstones to Develop Him Into a Stout Left Tackle For Ohio State
Immediate Impact
Although Ryan Day has said Lowe could also play guard, Lowe's athleticism, size and proven ability on the blind side suggests he'll stay at left tackle in the long run and won't move to need inside.“Wherever they put me is where I like,” Lowe said. “But I think they like me at tackle right now. I like tackle, left tackle, specifically.”
Like nearly every freshman offensive lineman, Lowe will likely need at least a year to develop before he's ready for a significant role on Ohio State's offensive line. That said, he has a chance to earn a spot on the two-deep as a freshman if he proves his worth throughout spring practice and fall camp. With Ethan Onianwa expected to start at left tackle, Lowe will compete with Austin Siereveld and Deontae Armstrong, among others, for a backup tackle role.
Long-Term Impact
Although Onianwa is a first-year Buckeye, he is entering his final season of eligibility which means the starting left tackle position will be vacant entering the 2026 season. If Lowe can maximize his time, both on the field and off of it, as a freshman, he will have a chance to compete that starting role in his second season as a Buckeye.Although when – not if – Lowe will eventually start at tackle for Ohio State seems to be the biggest question, he has the talent to be a future All-Big Ten selection and an anchor of OSU's offensive line.

I've been hearing that he's only been repping at LT(not saying he'd be the guy to play if Onianwa went down, I think that would be Siereveld). So he's been developed as the next LT in waiting. That's high praise
