23 Jun
Summary
- Devin McCuin is making a significant impact during summer workouts.
- McCuin brings blistering speed and explosiveness to the receiver group.
- He had 726 receiving yards and eight touchdowns at UTSA last year.
As Ohio State's football team gears up for 2026, transfer wide receiver Devin McCuin is emerging as a standout during summer workouts. McCuin, acquired from UTSA via the transfer portal, is consistently being mentioned for his remarkable speed and explosive playmaking ability. This offensive trait is a stated priority for the Buckeyes.
McCuin's contributions at UTSA included clearing 420 receiving yards in each of his three seasons there. Last year alone, he amassed 65 catches for 726 receiving yards and eight touchdowns. Ohio State moved quickly to secure his commitment in the winter, recognizing his potential to significantly impact their offense, especially with the attention Jeremiah Smith will command.
The Buckeyes' wide receiver corps also includes Brandon Inniss and fellow transfer Kyle Parker. However, McCuin's speed might position him as the team's second-leading receiver behind Smith. With Chris Henry Jr. and Brock Boyd potentially rounding out the rotation, McCuin's skill set could lead to him receiving a substantial number of targets, potentially making him one of Ohio State's most impactful recent transfer portal additions.
