Ohio State Football: 5 players trending up after spring 2019

Garrett Wilson was already facing lofty expectations with his commitment and decision to enroll early at Ohio State as a five-star prospect, but Ryan Day may have no choice but to give this kid immediate playing time, especially after he put on a show during the spring game.

The 6-foot-0, 188-pound freshman from Texas showed off his skill set on April 13 with a few jaw-dropping receptions, finishing the day with four catches for 44 yards and a touchdown in the corner of the end zone. He looked like he’d been playing at Ohio State for years, but in reality it was just a few months.

The best thing about this kid is that he’s not content with the progress he’s already made since being on campus, per Cleveland.com.

"“I still a have to come in and earn my stripes and get ready to play,” Wilson said. “A lot of different things can happen so we’ll see.”"

Not often do you see former five-star recruits with this kind of attitude, but Wilson is ready to work and this spring was a good step in the right direction. He will immediately join that playing group at wide receiver for the Buckeyes.
