It was no secret who was Keenan Bailey's top tight end priority in the 2025 recruiting class.
Bailey went all-in on landing Oklahoma prospect Nate Roberts, a top-flight pass-catching prospect in the past cycle. The early returns have paid off.
Roberts and fellow freshman Riley Pettijohn became the first players to shed their black stripes in fall camp on Tuesday, as the pair can now call themselves "official" Buckeyes.
The 6-foot-5, 240-pound tight end was considered the No. 203 prospect and No. 10 tight end in the 2025 recruiting class per 247Sports' composite rankings.
