A letter to the editor published in The Columbus Dispatch on November 10, 2026, harshly criticized the Ohio State University football program, labeling it "one of the worst in history" and urging prospective player Jeremiah Smith to "run away fast." The letter reflects growing frustration among some observers regarding the team's recent performance.
The Dispatch's letters section featured the critique, which did not provide specific statistical evidence but expressed strong dissatisfaction with the direction of the Buckeyes program. The mention of Jeremiah Smith suggests he is a notable recruit or player associated with the team.
