Cris Carter went on to have a Hall of Fame career after starring at Ohio State. While it’s early, Smith could be heading down a similar path.

Jeremiah Smith was ranked as the top overall player in the country in the class of 2024, per the On3 Industry rankings. He has more than lived up to expectations thus far.

Smith has scored at least one touchdown in all but one game this season. He also has a rushing touchdown to his name.

Despite being 6-foot-3, 215 pounds, Smith can absolutely fly. He has size, speed and great hands and has been tough to slow down for every team Ohio State has faced this year.
