We’ve been keeping an eye on social media to see who’s performing for the Ohio State football team in the offseason, and one of the spots we like to look at is the team’s “X” account that shows off the “Dudes of the Week.”

We’re not sure if that post will continue once fall camp begins on August 1, but we know that we got at least one more announcement based on what occurred this past weekend. The three “Dudes of the Week” from this past week are wide receiver Jeremiah Smith, tight end Patrick Gurd, and offfensive lineman Josh Fryar.

It’s not the first time we’ve seen these names be highlighted so they must be working pretty hard this offseason.

We’ll continue to see what players are showcased on social media, because that normally means they are impressing with their performance. We’re sure there’s even more coming with the start of fall camp.

It can be a bit slow during the offseason for the Ohio State creative team that pumps out social media content, but there’s some things to look for. This offseason, the football program has been naming its “Dudes of the Week” and we have the latest three to share with you.

According to a post on “X,” the three “Dudes of the Week” for the week ending with June 22 are two you won’t be surprised about, and one more that must have had one whale of a week.

Everybody has heard the praises and seen some highlights coming out of workouts from new generational wide receiver talent Jeremiah Smith, and he is one of the the players named. Another is senior Jack Sawyer, who should pair up with book-end J.T. Tuimoloau to comprise arguably the best edge-rushing tandem in the country,

The third player named is tight end Patrick Gurd, who hasn’t really gotten a lot in the way of mention, but he too must have put in the work last week. Could it be that he’s pressing for playing time this fall? We’ll have to see.

Here is the social media post announcing the three “Dudes of the Week” for your viewing pleasure.

Stay with us as we continue to highlight news, video, recruiting buzz, and more this offseason as we plow ahead towards the start of fall camp and beyond.
