The Ohio State football team is losing a good bit of top-end talent.
Defenders like Jeff Okudah and Chase Young will enter the draft. And, to go with three starters from secondary, the team’s wide receiver core will be going through a bit of a makeover as well.
Seniors K.J. Hill, Binjimen Victor, and Austin Mack will all be looking forward to the draft.
Garrett Wilson and Chris Olave will be the top threats next season, but the Buckeyes will also welcome a loaded class full of elite receivers. Those receivers include Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Julian Fleming and Mookie Cooper.
Gee Scott, the No. 12-ranked receiver in the Class of 2020, will also be taking his talents to Columbus. In what will be a talented incoming class, Scott is ready to work and compete on a daily basis.
“For starters, with myself being a competitor, I just like having so many guys in the room who are so competitive. We will come in and compete every day and it will be great. Not only will we push each other, but we will push other people on the team,” Scott told 247 Sports’ Steve Helwagen.

This is what fans should like hearing from the Washington native who signed with Ohio State over Arizona.
Scott will be primed and ready to make an impact, but he’ll have to prove himself, like all the freshmen, before being given that on-the-field trust from head man Ryan Day.
