BONUS: Time and Change - WRU Isn't Going Anywhere Aug 23, 2026

Show notes

WRU Isn't Going Anywhere | The Time and Change Will Surely Show
Ohio State has produced an absurd collection of wide receivers over the years — and the pipeline doesn’t appear to be slowing down anytime soon.
On this episode of The Time and Change Will Surely Show, Tony Gerdeman and Juck Miletti take a trip through the past, present, and future of Ohio State’s wide receiver room.
The guys start by tackling the nearly impossible task of ranking the greatest receivers in Buckeye history. Tony unveils his formula-generated Top 20, while Juck puts himself through the considerably more painful process of actually ranking his personal Top 10.
Where do Jeremiah Smith, David Boston, Marvin Harrison Jr., Cris Carter, Garrett Wilson, Jaxon Smith-Njigba and the rest of Ohio State's greats belong? And which former Buckeye receiver might have been born a couple of decades too early?
Then Tony puts Juck through a different exercise: seven randomly assembled three-receiver sets from Ohio State history go head-to-head until Juck crowns his ultimate trio.
From there, the conversation turns to the 2026 Buckeyes. How deep will Ohio State go at receiver against Texas? How quickly can freshmen Chris Henry Jr. and Brock Boyd force their way onto the field? What should be expected from Devin McCuin and Brandon Inniss? And just how ridiculous could Jeremiah Smith's numbers become this season?
Finally, Tony and Juck look toward the future and Ohio State's pursuit of elite receivers in the 2027, 2028 and 2029 recruiting classes.
