The Time And Change Will Surely Show

WRU Isn't Going Anywhere | The Time and Change Will Surely ShowOhio State has produced an absurd collection of wide receivers over the years — and the pipeline doesn’t appear to be slowing down anytime soon.On this episode of The Time and Change Will Surely Show, Tony Gerdeman and Juck Miletti take a trip through the past, present, and future of Ohio State’s wide receiver room.The guys start by tackling the nearly impossible task of ranking the greatest receivers in Buckeye history. Tony unveils his formula-generated Top 20, while Juck puts himself through the considerably more painful process of actually ranking his personal Top 10.Where do Jeremiah Smith, David Boston, Marvin Harrison Jr., Cris Carter, Garrett Wilson, Jaxon Smith-Njigba and the rest of Ohio State's greats belong? And which former Buckeye receiver might have been born a couple of decades too early?Then Tony puts Juck through a different exercise: seven randomly assembled three-receiver sets from Ohio State history go head-to-head until Juck crowns his ultimate trio.From there, the conversation turns to the 2026 Buckeyes. How deep will Ohio State go at receiver against Texas? How quickly can freshmen Chris Henry Jr. and Brock Boyd force their way onto the field? What should be expected from Devin McCuin and Brandon Inniss? And just how ridiculous could Jeremiah Smith's numbers become this season?Finally, Tony and Juck look toward the future and Ohio State's pursuit of elite receivers in the 2027, 2028 and 2029 recruiting classes.00:00 — Welcome to Time and Change01:31 — Tony's formula for ranking Ohio State's greatest WRs02:50 — What stands out about the Top 20?03:34 — Is Santonio Holmes Ohio State's most underrated receiver?04:52 — The case for Garrett Wilson06:36 — Juck reveals his Top 10 Ohio State receivers08:03 — Michael Jenkins, Chris Olave and Jaxon Smith-Njigba08:47 — Terry Glenn, Cris Carter and Garrett Wilson10:16 — Marvin Harrison Jr., David Boston and Jeremiah Smith12:44 — Why David Boston ranks ahead of Marvin Harrison Jr.14:16 — The Ohio State receiver who was born too early16:36 — Building the ultimate three-WR lineup17:57 — Garrett Wilson, Terry Glenn and Anthony Gonzalez enter the competition19:04 — Jeremiah Smith, Michael Jenkins and Parris Campbell19:41 — Santonio Holmes, Ted Ginn Jr. and Devin Smith20:10 — Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Carnell Tate and Emeka Egbuka20:45 — Marvin Harrison Jr., Joey Galloway and Curtis Samuel21:27 — Juck crowns his ultimate Ohio State WR trio22:49 — How deep will Ohio State go at receiver against Texas?24:23 — Could the Buckeyes regularly play six or seven receivers?26:01 — Brock Boyd's freshman expectations28:31 — Are Chris Henry Jr.'s projections way too low?30:13 — Ohio State's all-time freshman receiving numbers32:08 — How big can Jeremiah Smith's 2026 season become?33:19 — Can Jeremiah Smith break Jaxon Smith-Njigba's records?35:21 — What should Ohio State expect from Devin McCuin?38:06 — Brandon Inniss' role and production41:29 — Philip Bell, Dez Jones, and Ohio State's WR depth42:04 — Looking ahead to Ohio State's 2027 WR recruiting class43:40 — Could 2028 be another monster receiver haul?47:47 — The danger of projecting recruiting classes years ahead49:27 — Austin Miller and Ohio State's 2029 WR class50:46 — More future Ohio State receiver targets to know53:41 — Final thoughts on Ohio State's incredible WR traditionWho are your Top 5 wide receivers in Ohio State history?
