Ohio State’s second practice of fall camp produced a couple of major offensive standouts, with wide receiver Devin McCuin and running back Isaiah West continuing to make strong impressions.

Tony Gerdeman and Juck Miletti break down what they saw on Day Two, including McCuin’s big-play ability and growing case to become Ohio State’s clear No. 2 receiver. They also discuss another impressive day from West, who is making the Buckeyes’ running back competition look increasingly interesting.

The conversation also covers Jeremiah Smith, Chris Henry Jr., Brock Boyd, the latest offensive line combinations, Ohio State’s tight ends, Kenyatta Jackson’s changing role, Beau Atkinson’s development, Riley Pettijohn, and freshman defensive back Jay Timmons getting first-team nickel reps.
