Nobody outside of Columbus saw this coming — Ohio State freshman receiver Brock Boyd, a former three-star recruit ranked just the No. 100 receiver in his class, keeps outplaying every expectation set for him. In this episode, we break down Boyd's standout plays throughout fall camp, Jeremiah Smith's high praise comparing him to his own freshman year, and why Boyd's football IQ and route-running have coaches and teammates buzzing. We also cover where he fits into a stacked Ohio State wide receiver room and why his ceiling might be higher than anyone projected on signing day.
