Another highly touted wide receiver from the class of 2020 lost his black stripe with the Buckeyes Tuesday. Mookie Cooper was a four-star recruit according to 247Sports and listed as the 16th best receiver and 93rd overall player in the nation coming out of high school.
Cooper isn’t the biggest receiver, coming in at 5-foot, 8.5-inches, but is considered to have excellent hands and is elusive after the catch. Some have said Cooper reminds them of Curtis Samuel, which isn’t a bad guy to be compared with.
“I wanna thank the whole zone 6, all the older guys picking me up if I had a bad day and Kalia and all the nutritionist for helping me get my diet right. Go Bucks!” Mookie Cooper
Watch Cooper share his thanks at being welcomed and recognized in the below tweet shared by Ohio State football.
