WR Michael "Cantguardmike" Thomas (B1G Champion, National Champion, Pro Bowl, All-Pro, 2019 OPOY)

NOW THE ELDER STATESMAN AT WIDE RECEIVER, MICHAEL THOMAS LOOKING TO BECOME BETTER LEADER FOR OHIO STATE

Michael Thomas won't ever forget the play, but even if he does for a second or two, there are no shortage of Ohio State fans out there prepped and ready to remind him of it.

"I see it a lot," Thomas said at Ohio State Media Day Sunday. "You can tell when ESPNU is playing the game on repeat or Big Ten Network is playing the game on repeat because other people will start sending it to me. So I’ve seen it a ton of times."

The play, of course, is the completion of a reverse pass from Evan Spencer to Thomas in the edge of the end zone during the Sugar Bowl against No. 1 Alabama. Thomas rose high above the Crimson Tide defender and hauled in the ball all while somehow keeping one foot in bounds.

Honest question ....is there anything he doesn't do well? I can't really think of any areas of weakness -- great body control & ball/field awareness, catches well with his hands, hard to bring down, fast enough to run away from defenders once he gets loose. I guess I don't know much about his blocking and route running, but I would assume those would be pretty good, too? To those more wise to such things, what areas should he be looking to improve on?

VT will put their best DB on Thomas all night long and make OSU beat them with their other WRs. Thomas will win some of those match ups but we need some of our speed guys to get separation. We also need to get the ball in Miller and Samuels hands with some short dump offs out in the flats. Vannett down the seams, and out in the flat could also be effective.

They did that last year and didn't stop him.
