Ohio State football announced its ‘Dudes of the Week’ for June 18, recognizing standout players during summer.

Week ending June 16, 2024
- Cody Simon (LB)
- Jeremiah Smith (WR)
- Donovan Jackson (OL)
Week ending June 22, 2024
- Patrick Gurd (TE)
- Jeremiah Smith (WR)
- Jack Sawyer (EDGE)
It seems the program alternated their “Dudes of the Week” every Friday during those summer weeks. If Ohio State followed the same pattern in June 2025, the update likely would have come out on June 20 or 21, not strictly on the 18th.
Here’s a breakdown of the players most commonly recognized around that timeframe:
- Jeremiah Smith, sophomore wide receiver and breakout star freshman in 2024, was a consistent highlight every week .
- Patrick Gurd, tight end, earned one of those weekly nods in June 2024 .
- Jack Sawyer, senior edge rusher, also featured in June 2024 .
If Ohio State followed its established summer ritual:
- They would post the “Dudes of the Week” around Friday, June 20 or 21, 2025.
- Expect similar recognition of top offseason standouts like Smith, Gurd, and Sawyer, based on their recent track record.
