Ryan Day and Kevin Wilson said it was Cade Stover’s choice to move back to tight end, and they believe he has a “huge ceiling” at the position.
For the second time in his Ohio State career, Cade Stover has decided to make a move to tight end.
During Tuesday’s sixth practice of the spring, however, Stover was back at tight end again. And Ohio State head coach Ryan Day and offensive coordinator/tight ends coach Kevin Wilson both said that was Stover’s decision. “Now that he's a veteran in the program, he has a voice and we want to put them in the best position to be successful,” Day said. “And it's something that, there's always been conversation about it, and now that he's been there for a couple practices, we'll continue to talk about it. But he needs to focus on something for a while in order to be successful. We can't keep bouncing around.
Stover will still face competition for playing time at tight end, as Joe Royer and Gee Scott Jr. are also in the mix to play increased roles this season, but both of them remain a bit undersized for what Ohio State ideally wants in an in-line blocker. At 6-foot-4 and 255 pounds, Stover has the body type the Buckeyes covet at tight end, and Wilson and Day both believe he has the potential to be more of an impact player at the position than he was in 2021.
