Last season, Terry McLaurin and Johnnie Dixon combined to procure 77 receptions for 1,370 yards and 19 touchdowns. For the first eight games, they were splitting reps at the Z receiver spot.

Well before quarterback Dwayne Haskins bypassed his final two seasons of eligibility at Ohio State, the process of replacing him had begun. And then all hell broke loose. Justin Fields transferred in, Tate Martell transferred out, and freshman Matthew Baldwin was there to watch it all happen. Fields is arguably the most-highly-touted…
Terry McLaurin has been here before. No, not Mobile, Alabama where he is currently taking part in a week-long job interview at the Senior Bowl.

Urban Meyer is on the cusp of coaching his final game as Ohio State’s head coach. The Rose Bowl has been a bucket list item for Meyer and next week he will finally get to check it off.

INDIANAPOLIS — He returned to his hometown to once again make a statement for the Buckeyes. The best of senior wide receiver Terry McLaurin was brought out on Saturday in the Big Ten Championship Game as he finished with three receptions for 78 yards and two touchdowns in a 45-24 win over Northwestern to…
Saturday afternoon in Ohio Stadium with the division and — more importantly — bragging rights on the line, a big-time player stepped up in a big-time game. But this was unlike any other performance he has had this season. In a game where Ohio State was saying goodbye to three senior captain receivers, it was true freshman…
