The College Football Hall of Fame doesn’t grade on a curve.
But perhaps it should make an exception for tight end Max Klare, who may merit immediate entrance considering he turned in nearly 700 receiving yards last season for one of the worst Big Ten teams in recent memory.
We kid, of course. But not about his accomplishment, that’s a genuine feat. Considering Ohio State has a treasure trove of pass-catching weapons like Jeremiah Smith, Carnell Tate and Brandon Inniss at its disposal, combined with OSU lacking a true game-changing receiving tight end in its recent history, it’s possible Klare might be the most underrated addition and storyline of Ohio State’s offense ahead of the 2025 season.
