The state of Ohio may want to curb the fashionable train before it starts to lose control. But it's probably already too late, given the impressive glimpse of Garrett Wilson's spring camp before he entered the Horseshoe big stage for the first time next weekend.

In a frame that favors the passing attack, with little to prove for the veterans receivers in an exhibition setting and with the undeniable athleticism of the beginners, the table will be set for Wilson to make his bright debut. If for whatever reason, there are odds of betting somewhere on the MVP of the Ohio State Spring Match, put a few dollars on the Texas target.

It may be even more praise for Wilson than coach-receiver Brian Hartline would like for a real freshman when he's just trying to get him back into the rotation for Zone 6. But even Hartline has was surprised to sometimes complain that the five-star rookie could predict the Buckeyes right away this season.

"My best compliment for [Wilson]I told him: you do not behave like a freshman, "said Hartline. "Upon his arrival, he will tell you that it was a change of culture. I mean, the kid should always be in high school.

"But he's just doing a phenomenal job. Whether I cast it in "Z" or "X", his mental retention is really good. He really wants to learn from guys. It is part of the culture. So, everything he's doing right now is on the right track, and I'm delighted to see him continue to take small steps. "

Playing in front of what should be another huge crowd in the Ohio Stadium would obviously mark a new milestone in Wilson's progress, and he will certainly have chances for him to show what he can do. Whether it's with his old quarterback in Matthew Baldwin or Justin Fields' passes, it depends on how Ohio State chose to format the game next week. This should probably be remembered that it is a little too early to make ambitious projections. on a glorified melee – not to mention Wilson's career with the Buckeyes.

But there was a reason why Garrett Wilson was so coveted on the recruiting trail, and he has supported it quickly since arriving on campus in January and attending his first camp starting in early March. In mid-April, expect to see more of him and make the buzz for his first season.
