With the turmoil surrounding the Ohio State football program last year Zach Smith was let go and Brian Hartline was named the interim receivers coach. Soon afterward I wrote Hartline was the right guy at the right time and he proved me right.
With the strides the receivers made last season the interim tag was taken off and now he is becoming one of the top recruiters in college football.
Having two players chosen in the first three rounds of the recent NFL draft and another picked up as a free agent certainly will help on the recruiting trail.
