WR Carnell Tate (National Champion)

Given the state of NIL, and rumors about offers Tate was given, hats off to him for putting his future ahead of his current situation. I think one thing OSU has that other schools don't is a culture of brotherhood. I think it's real, and I think guys like Carnell are a testiment to college football not being the goal, but instead a necessary developmental time.

Idk. With the amount of money being thrown at these young people, it's nice to see some levity. End of the day, it'll serve them well in the long term.

I was given the same advice, must be a popular mantra. Other than the annual Vegas trip with my law school buddies (which was still on a real budget), I lived like I was more broke than undergrad. In reality, I was since you couldn't work a job during the first two years until the summer.

On Tate, he has his head on straight and sees the bigger picture, that being WR2 to JJ and getting way more film and opportunities next year (to be fair, he already had a great season with the past roster). Plus you would have to think he appreciates what the coaches and his teammates did to help support him through a serious family tragedy. Definitely a breath of fresh air either way, hoping to see him thrive next season and I am sure he will. Tough kid.

Per Nakos' report, Smith is being offered between $4.5 million and $5 million, while Tate is fielding offers of more than $1 million. From the report, Ohio State is ready to do whatever it takes to keep Smith in the fold for next season. The Buckeyes are also making a staunch effort to retain Tate.

Carnell Tate Says He Never Planned to Leave Buckeyes Despite Pursuit From Other Schools: “I Bleed Ohio State”​

One of the biggest storylines in the wake of Ohio State's national championship victory was the millions being offered to its star wide receivers to hop in the transfer portal and go to other schools. Tate reportedly fielded offers of more than $1 million to do so.

There were rumblings at the time that Tate was considering taking one of those offers to become a No. 1 receiver elsewhere. But in an interview with 10TV after he served as the Columbus Crew's match igniter for their season opener against the Chicago Fire on Saturday, Tate said his loyalty never wavered.

"The plan was never for me to leave," Tate said. "I don't know where that came from, where that started. I bleed Ohio State."

National media outlet makes prediction for Ohio State in 2025 that will leave Buckeyes fans shaking their head in disagreement​

ohio-state.webp


247Sports made a prediction for the Ohio State Buckeyes in 2025 that will probably leave fans in Columbus shaking their heads.

That national sports media outlet made the "daring" prediction this week that Carnell Tate will lead Ohio State in receiving in 2025 instead of Jeremiah Smith.

From 247Sports: The difference in yardage and touchdowns between these two last season was significant, but that changes in 2025 when Carnell Tate goes from option No. 3 in the Buckeyes' passing attack to co-lead with preseason Heisman candidate Jeremiah Smith. With Emeka Egbuka off to the NFL, that means greater influence on the game plan for Tate. There's going to be so much focus from opposing defensive coordinators on Smith that Tate will shine with enhanced opportunities. Expect both of these elite wideouts to surpass 1,000 yards and double-digit touchdowns, but Tate will be Ohio State's breakout performer.
