When you're that dude, you can talk that talk as you see fit. For Ohio State star freshman wide receiver Jeremiah Smith, there's nothing he can't do.
Through four games, the Buckeyes' leading receiver continues to torch defenses and produce highlight-leading plays. It's left fans buzzing about whether Smith is the best Ohio State-receiving talent ever. And to be honest, it's hard to argue against it.
Smith, totaling five catches for 83 yards and one touchdown, had two more incredible receptions against Michigan State. Then, he dropped his crown with an incredible post-game quote.
I mean, c'mon, look at these two plays. Emeka Egbuka had this to say about Smith after the game:
“I think he has all the intangibles you would want in a prototypical receiver. He's tall, he's fast, he's strong — all these things,” Egbuka said. “But it's his ability to seek knowledge and want to learn.
As his knowledge grows and his game expands, he's really gonna turn into something special. Buckeye fans can be excited about these next few years,” he said."
Smith added his own two cents about his play, saying, "I got to make my quarterback look good. If I have a ball come at me, that ball is mine. There's no 50-50 balls with me. I feel like every ball is mine. I’ll come up with it.”
It's hard to argue that Smith is wrong, and I love the aggressive mindset. Through four games, Smith has caught 19 passes for 272 yards and five touchdowns.
