Kamryn Babb has already made a big impact for Ohio State off the field, but he and his coaches and his teammates still think he can make a big impact on the field.
Four years into his Ohio State career, Babb has yet to catch a single pass. He hasn’t even played a snap in three of his four seasons as a Buckeye. After tearing his right ACL as a senior in high school, Babb tore his left ACL during summer workouts as a true freshman in 2018, then tore the same ACL again in spring practice in 2019. He played occasionally during Ohio State’s COVID-shortened season in 2020, but missed all of last season after tearing his right ACL for a second time.
“He would be a guy that, when you look back, probably has made more of an impact on others than maybe anybody else around this team. So a very special young man.” “Jesus Christ, my lord, my savior, my father, he's my everything. It’s his story, and as long as he's behind me, it doesn't really matter who else is,” Babb said during a media availability in March. “But this team, I can tell you, is behind me, and my family and the people close to me. So I'm just grateful for them and all the fans that are, I'm grateful for them as well. And just hope I can show them what I've got to bring to the table.
Even though he’s spent most of his Ohio State career in the training room, Babb says he’s become physically stronger, too. Babb said in March that his knees felt as good as they ever have even though he’s torn both of his ACLs two separate times. And he’s worked hard to continue improving as a football player despite not being able to play or even practice much.
“We had a little bump in the road that we were a little worried about, but it didn't come back as a big deal,” Ryan Day said. “I thought up until that practice, he had been really practicing at a high level. Really had a chance to have an impact on this offense, and I think he will.” “I think the sky's the limit,” Babb said. “I don't know how it's gonna look or what it’s gonna look like, I don't know what's gonna happen. But in my head, I got a certain image, and I'm just as ready as anybody else is.”
