Former Nick Saban Star Makes Bold Prediction About Jeremiah Smith’s Ohio State Future: "He's Done"
Follow
Former Alabama standout and CBS Sports analyst Damien Harris suggested that Ohio State wide receiver Jeremiah Smith should consider ending his collegiate career after the Buckeyes' 41-28 home defeat to No. 23 Oregon.
Harris argued on the CFB Postgame show that Smith has already secured the program's touchdown and reception records along with a national title, leaving little incentive to risk his health for a team that is no longer a contender for the College Football Playoff.
The Buckeyes' season has deteriorated following consecutive losses to USC and Oregon, with quarterback Julian Sayin expected to miss the remainder of the regular season due to a throwing arm injury sustained against Indiana on October 17. Although true freshman Luke Fahey threw for 360 yards in the Oregon game, the offense failed to convert on all four fourth-down attempts and collapsed after holding a 14-0 lead, prompting Harris to question whether the upcoming Michigan rivalry match justifies further participation for the projected top pick in the 2027 NFL Draft.
