So, yeah, I think it makes one of the more pressure-packed sort of jobs in college football all the more so when you're doing stuff like this.
I'll go off the board a little bit.
I'll say Nate Roberts.
And we got to watch one period, basically, of offense versus defense.
And it was like a half field, seven on seven red zone.
So there were only like...
nine guys on the field because you're using half a field at a time.
But it felt like a lot of it was centered on the tight ends and throwing the ball their way.
And one of those reps, Nate Roberts, ran a route against Eli Lee, who, as I say this, I understand he's probably like Ohio State's
seventh best linebacker, but it was a heck of a route.
Like he, he, he faked inside sort of got Eli Lee to like spin his head around and then like very quickly redirected and went around him on the outside and caught a touchdown pass from Julian saying, and, and I just don't really know anything about Nate Roberts as a route running tight end.
He played 160 snaps last year and he ran a route 20 times.
Like they just, they did not use him that way.
And when he was running routes, he was kind of running them out of the backfield into the flat, and that was sort of it.
And I don't think Ohio State needs whoever its number one tight end is this year to be like a prolific pass catcher, but they got to be able to do a little something in that area.
And I don't know who among that group might emerge there.
I do think it's kind of wide open.
And to see in a very sort of like brief moment,
Nate Roberts break off what was like kind of a nasty route I thought was interesting.
So it was just something like I'll stick in my back pocket and try to watch a little more of as we see more of spring.
