## Resource

Brandon Inniss is back for another season as a key piece of Ohio State’s offense, but can he become more explosive in year two as a starter? Tony Gerdeman and Tom Orr discuss expectations for Inniss, what he did last season, where his numbers need to improve, and whether Ohio State can get more big plays from the slot receiver position this year. They also discuss how Inniss compares to past productive Buckeye slot receivers, why yards after the catch will be so important, how Julian Sayin’s progression reads could impact his targets, and whether Inniss can remain a reliable weapon while also increasing his downfield and red-zone production. 00:30 — Intro 00:40 — Tom explains why expectations shows are fun 00:57 — Setting up Brandon Inniss’ year-two expectations 01:29 — Looking back at Inniss’ 2025 production 02:40 — Why 271 receiving yards was lower than expected 04:19 — The yards-per-catch issue 05:15 — Ohio State’s history of productive slot receivers 06:11 — Tony’s projected numbers for Brandon Inniss 06:59 — What would count as a solid season? 08:20 — Could Inniss add more touchdowns? 09:40 — Inniss’ sure hands and punt return value 10:03 — Where Inniss fits in Julian Sayin’s passing progression 11:21 — Final thoughts and listener question 11:54 — Tom sings the show out What kind of season do you expect from Brandon Inniss?
