And I think, I don't know that it's ever been, yeah, they were that year.

They were second in the country and yards after the catch behind Washington state, which is an air raid team or it wasn't every team at the time.

So it's just not been a big component of the offense for much of Ryan day's tenure, like fine, fine, but probably lower than anyone would assume based on the receiver talent that Ohio state accumulates.

And yeah,

if a lot of the conversation, or at least a nice chunk of the conversation about where the offense needs to go next season is about being more explosive, well, this is how you do it, right?

So I wasn't surprised to hear any of that today.

It was actually kind of encouraging because I had been thinking it too and wondering if it was on their mind.

So for Jeremiah to kind of bring it up a little bit unprompted and then for Cortez Hankton to double down on it, I think is super interesting.

Okay.

Yeah, I agree.

It's a yes and, but I do believe that it probably, the idea of like, let's maybe not try to bomb it down the field every time we need an explosive pass play.

Let's see if we can't get the ball quickly to guys and then run after the catch.

I do think probably suits Julian saying a little more.

Julian was a good downfield thrower, but the thing that he does best is get the ball out fast, accurately.

to like to whatever receivers within 10 yards of the line of scrimmage so like if you combine because he's like he's there's nothing wrong with being a point guard but he's kind of a point guard um and and i and i think uh i think maybe you maybe get a little more out of julian too if you're if you were doing some of that um and maybe you'd start taking less sex obviously if you do because the ball's coming out quicker um kyle parker last year at lsu

Not a high-volume guy, only 44 targets.

5.5 yards after the catch per reception.

Devin McEwen, a high-volume guy at UTSA.

5.4.

Both would have led Ohio State last year by a full yard.
