Go Blue? L’Christian Smith Says Ohio State is the ‘Place to Be’
Listed at 6-foot-6 and 210 pounds, L’Christian Smith doesn’t look like your typical wide receiver.
But then, when it comes to Ohio State, “typical wide receivers” need not apply.
Nicknamed “Blue” almost since birth, Smith was a First-Team All-State wide receiver last year for Wayne High School in the Dayton area. That’s the same high school that produced another atypical wide receiver in former Buckeye Braxton Miller.
For Miller, Ohio State was the only place he was ever going to end up, and the momentum is heading in that direction for Smith as well.
Smith spent Saturday on the OSU campus during the last of the Buckeyes’ three one-day camps for high schoolers. He had conversations with Urban Meyer and offensive coordinator Kevin Wilson, and basically just hung out for the day.
What was his impression of Ohio State?
“Same impression I always leave here with — it’s the place to be,” he said.
“I can’t even explain it. Anybody that hasn’t been here, if you come up here, you’ll understand why it’s the place to be. Go to a football game. Trust me, it’s the place to be.”
That’s a pretty strong sales pitch from someone who isn’t even an Ohio State commitment. At least not yet.
Smith will be announcing his decision in July and is in the early stages of planning his commitment video.
