Ohio State has the weapons to return to elite form on offense in 2024 – if its offensive line can pave the way.
With his background as an offensive and quarterback guru, it seemed like a guarantee Ohio State would always have an elite offense for Day’s first four years as head coach. It was the defense that primarily cost the Buckeyes in their biggest losses in 2020, 2021 and 2022.
The Buckeyes responded by stocking up on offensive talent in the transfer portal, getting Kansas State quarterback Will Howard, Alabama quarterback Julian Sayin and center Seth McLaughlin, Ole Miss running back Quinshon Judkins and Ohio tight end Will Kacmarek to either fill or support important positions on offense.
“He’s making all the throws,” Knowles said. “He stands in the pocket, he’s got great vision, arm strength. We’ve got great receivers, he’s putting the ball in places where only the receiver can catch it. So to me, it’s not just the arm strength, but he’s making the pinpoint passes, too.” Scott, Kacmarek and Thurman all bring a different skill set to the table for Ohio State at the tight end position. Kacmarek has the best reputation as a blocker, Scott is the veteran of the room with a receiver background and Thurman’s strengths were discussed above.
