Michael Thomas has the most talent of any of the WRs IMO and Eli Apple made some nice plays on him today. Braxton was Braxton, had really nice touch leading receivers. Overall hard to take much from a spring game but Washington and Spence both could be all B1G level this year.

    Spence will be a monster. I watched him in highschool at bishop mcdevitt. Every team would roll out opposite side of him and run away from him and he still had like 20+ sacks lol he was so dominate. I was hoping ND would land him but they really had no shot

    This upcoming season can't get here fast enough.... So many talented young players are going to have break out seasons.

    I really cant wait until Mike Thomas gets on the field. Was really impressed with him in the spring game last year. I was a little suprised at how little PT he go, though. Hopefully he breaks out this year. We need it.

    You and me both. I like Devin Smith but Michael Thomas is the WR that has game breaking ability IMO. Hopefully he gets a chance to shine. Also, cannot wait to see how Jalin Marshall fits in and if he gets time this year.

    With our offense, this really isn't a high priority. We do need to recruit a good one for 2014 though.

    Thomas switched positions between Spring and Fall last year, which set him back. I expect a big year from him. He and Braxton are best friends, and he was Braxton's receiver when he was working with the QB guru.

    I don't think Thomas will be a big game breaker, more like a Michael Jenkins type.

    The game used to be free, then it was like $5 with all money going to charity. A couple years ago they started coupling it with a lacrosse game for $10/15. I didn't hear the price for yesterday. And the only reason it wasnt in Columbus was because of stadium construction so doubt well see it in Cleveland anytime soon.

    I swear I heard they wanted to play a game in Cleveland in the next few years.

    Michael Jenkins is not a bad comparison, but I think Thomas has bigger potential than him. I see him as an Anquan Boldin type WR. Can make tough catches across the middle and can run deeper routes as well.

    Hope this carries over into the fall, as it's a definite need.

    GRANT GETS IT: Meyer said junior linebacker Curtis Grant "solidified" his starting middle linebacker spot with a team-high eight tackles and a sack.
    The marquee prize of the Buckeyes’ 2011 recruiting class, Grant started only three games his first two seasons and was benched early last fall. But given another shot this spring, Meyer said Grant has appeared a different player.
    "Curtis Grant is a starting linebacker at Ohio State," Meyer said. "He solidified that today. He is a fully engaged player right now, and I take my hat off to him. He was not that way last year."
