Ohio State Football: Wide Receiver Revival Needed

Related Topics: Wide receiver, H-back

Urban Meyer’s nine unit strong approach to team success requires each unit operating at their top potential. As the 2016 Ohio State Buckeyes’ offense faltered in big games culminating in the New Year’s Eve trouncing, it became clear to everyone that one cog in the system was broken, the receiving corps.

The unit didn’t lack talent which is what drove fans crazy. Those in the stands or on the couch saw a supremely talented group of players, highlighted by Curtis Samuel, who didn’t perform to expectations. What was missing then if not talent?

The receiving corps in Urban Meyer’s system needs to be three strong with two wide receivers and an H-back.
