With all eyes expecting Ohio State’s star wide receiver Chris Olave to enter his name into the 2021 draft, he announced he’ll return for his senior season.
“I’d like to thank God for this life, without him none of this is possible,” Olave wrote on Twitter and thanked coach Ryan Day, wide receivers coach Brian Hartline, strength coach Mickey Marotti along with Buckeye nation.
“There are so many great memories, but we’re not done yet, I’ll be returning for my senior year at Ohio State,” says Olave.
In his three-year career as a Buckeye, Olave has caught 110 catches, 1,766 yards, and 22 touchdowns.
He was projected as likely a first-round NFL pick and shocked Buckeye nation with his return.
The announcement is huge for the offense heading into next fall.
Key offensive pieces entered the 2021 draft, as expected — Justin Fields, Wyatt Davis, and Trey Sermon.
Olave’s value is magnificent and was on full display this past season as he was unable to participate in the Big Ten Championship game due to COVID protocols — the Buckeyes struggled in the passing game as Justin Fields completed only 12 of 27 passes for 114 yards.
Olave’s return, along with tight end Jeremy Ruckert and left tackle Thayer Munford is enormous, especially within the quarterback room.
The Buckeyes will see a new face at starting quarterback come next fall with sophomores CJ Stroud, Jack Miller, and 5-star true freshman Kyle McCord all competing for the job — the return of Ruckert, Munford, and Olave will help break in a new quarterback.
Olave’s revenge game against Clemson was surreal as he caught six passes for 132 yards and two touchdowns.
Against the Crimson Tide in the national title game, Olave caught eight passes for 69 yards.
His career as a Buckeye has been special — But he’s not done yet and has one goal in mind.
C02 is back.
