It’s no secret — Ohio State's wide receivers have been average this season. They rely on catching and running, not running and catching.
An intriguing option that might serve the offense well was seen Saturday in walk-on C.J. Saunders.
Saunders had a game-high six receptions for 102 yards receiving against UNLV. Urban Meyer has alluded to Saunders’ ability but worried about his interior blocking and his small, 170-pound frame.
“Saunders is actually a good player,” Meyer said. “His body, [we] wish we could do something to get him a little stronger and more strength, because he’s a really good player, just not very big.
