Good morning Buck Knutters. It is Tuesday, June 21st, 2022. I am Jan Rubin. This is the Buckknuts Morning 5 and Change.

We will be joined very shortly, as you can see by the avatar that was never more handy than yesterday. Dwayne Long will be here.

If you are watching on Facebook, the Twitter or the tube of you, you need to give us a five star review, smash the like button, subscribe, whatever you do that allows our bosses to retain our contracts when they come up.

Today we are going to be discussing what else Ohio State's continued thrashing of the white receiver position on the recruiting trail.

Also more camp today, but as you can see from his avatar, the great Orlando pace representing Dwayne Long Dwayne yesterday about 1 p.m. in Columbus. It was about 80 degrees.

How did it feel all throughout your body?

I was in good place. I had, as you said, I had my lead blocker, the greatest of all time, but there were just too many dogs and we had to cut it short.

El Tate committed to Ohio State yesterday. He is a necked junk recruit wide receiver originally from Illinois, matriculated to IMG Academy and brains in Florida and will be back in the Midwest to play his college football football for the Ohio State Buckais.

It was a long recruitment.

If you take into account the highs and lows, it finished as a two team battle with Tennessee and was another, I would say highlight of guys choosing their long term future over their short term future.

I went back and watched Colonel Tate again yesterday Dwayne and he just doesn't have any weaknesses. I hate to say that about such a young guy, but he has great size.

He runs incredible routes. He plays hard. He's a hands catcher. He can catch with one hand. He can catch a screen pass and take it the distance.

If I were to say his overall best attribute is that he has no weakness, Dwayne, once you put your clothes back on, what'd you think of it?

Well, I still got to get a shoe on, but I can talk over top of that. Here's the thing. I watched this film again too. I've watched it several times. I probably watched that tape more than anybody except Caleb Downs.

You can't stop him. No average college football player forget about a high school kid. He's so big and so strong and so athletic. He's going to come up and take the football.

There's nothing that you can do about it. And then he's got the speed to turn it up field and house this kid here. He's right up there with the best we've seen in recent years.

Julian Fleming and Agba, Agbuka, just a unique physical specimen that can do whatever the hell he wants to do on a football field.

If you had a degree, if you look at it, obviously IMG, the quality of competition they play is ridiculous.

If you told me carnal tape came in here is a true freshman and was in the rotation or the third receiver, which at Ohio State is like being knighted.

I wouldn't be surprised. I'll bet no matter who they get out of this class and it's going to be a class for the ages.

I do think Tate is going to be the first one to get on the field. We can talk about the other guys as we go, but I can't be more impressed with the guy. I'm not saying he's the best receiver they've gotten, which is going to be a statement for years to come, but he's as good a high school prospect as any receiver they've gotten in here.
