RB Legend Bey (Official Thread)

I hate when they call someone a"poor mans" anything. The poor are the ones fighting and winning or fucking wars and have been.

I'll take a poor hungry guy in a fight over a rich kid any day.

I don’t really care for player comparisons in general. I mean I know Day is at minimal a good ball knower but prime Hill is an incomparable player to anyone. He is absolutely one of the most explosive and fastest wide receivers ever.

I don’t really have a point. Oh well still posting, sorry everyone.

I think you’re missing the point of “poor man’s”. He’s saying he just reminds him of Hill. A young, less refined version of Hill. Just like Sayin is comped as a “poor man’s” Drew Brees. He plays similar in style but isn’t at the same level as Brees, but might be one day.

Oh I understand the vernacular, I just don't like it.

Ohio State WR Jeremiah Smith signs off on the hype for this exciting freshman​

Ohio State's best player is as excited about this player as everyone else is.

Spring practice is fully underway for the Ohio State football program. The goal for Ryan Day is to find a way to integrate the 51 new players on the roster. He has to figure out how to replace talent from a defense that was the best in the country a year ago. There might be four Buckeyes taken in the first round of the draft from the defense.

Offensively, the Ohio State Buckeyes have a lot of talent returning. They bring back four of their starting offensive linemen, only losing their least effective one from a year ago. They also bring back the best player in the country in Jeremiah Smith, who has promised to be even better.

Smith has been around long enough to see a ton of talent come through Columbus. He is co-signing some of the hype that has been coming out of spring practice for freshman running back Legend Bey, who has been one of the most impressive players so far.

Ohio State receiver Jeremiah Smith loves what he's seen from Legend Bey​

Bey has been turning heads while he has been working out with both running backs and receivers. Smith let everyone know that he likes what he's seen from Bey so far.

Ryan Day Says Legend Bey Has Missed “A Couple of Practices” This Spring, Hopes to Have Him Back Soon​

“Legend has been out here for a couple of practices. Hopefully we can get him back here soon. He certainly flashed when he was in there, but making the transition from being a quarterback to playing running back is two different things, especially at Ohio State.”

I just saw this...YIKES! That's one of the biggest physical leaps I've seen from a HS about to college Frosh, and we're not even close to being through summer training. This kid could see the field asap, I already thought he would with his play making ability but if he's got the build to absorb some hits he could get significant PT. Obviously he'll need to learn the play book and mesh into the offense, but he's at least got the building blocks there already to play now.

Yeah, I didn’t think he’d see the field much other than maybe ST, and now I’m thinking he may find a way into the RB rotation in year 1. He looks so much more bigger and if he doesn’t lose much speed, he’s easily the change of pace back

So long as he keeps what we recruited him for. Master Teague aced the looks test but was only modestly effective on the field.

Maybe I’m misremembering but I feel like there is or was a decent emphasis on his pass catching/playing some wideout too?

Ohio State freshman shows incredible body transformation before taking a snap​

The Ohio State freshman could end up seeing significant snaps next season as a freshman.

Bey has made quite the transformation since enrolling in Columbus. He has done a great job dedicating himself to the weight room since deciding that he wants to play for the Buckeyes. While he won't be the starter as a freshman, he certainly will be seeing the field a little bit.

It would be surprising if Bey didn't see the field in some games this season. Bo Jackson and Isaiah West are the starter and the backup, so the Buckeyes are going to only play Bey a little bit. Even so, Bey seems like he's done too much to be sitting on the bench.

Mick Marotti continues to be the strength and conditioning coach for Ohio State. He has some detractors, but Ryan Day clearly thinks he is doing a good job. It's hard to argue with the results, especially after the Buckeyes won the national title in 2024.

Legend Bey could be the next impact freshman for the Ohio State football program​

Bey got a lot of snaps while Jackson and West were sidelined in the spring after having offseason surgery. Until he got hurt, he looked electric out on the field. Now, the Buckeyes have both of their main running backs back. However, they still have to figure out how to get Bey on the field.

Quite frankly, Bey showed too much during the spring not to see the field when the Fall rolls around. Bey will likely see the field in a running back and a receiver scenario. He is a solid freshman who has done a good job of working to make sure that the coaches have noticed him.
