As we all know, Miami fans wanted badly to keep Jeremiah Smith home. That never happened, and Smith has already spent two seasons at Ohio State.

But during today’s College Football Playoff Cotton Bowl press conferences, Smith admitted something that will grab the attention of Hurricanes fans.

Smith said that if Miami was where it is right now back when he signed with Ohio State, he believes he would’ve ended up at Miami.

Smith was asked, “If Miami had won more or played in games like this during your high school career, would you be a Hurricane right now?”

Here’s exactly what he said:

“Most likely, yeah, I’d have probably ended up at Miami if things were on the right track then. But I chose to stick with Ohio State.”

Now, Smith will get the chance to play against his home state when Ohio State faces Miami on December 31st in the College Football Playoff Cotton Bowl.

Wari Asserman is the biggest OSU ball-licker this side of Brutus Buckeye.

Quite sure he peed in his Fruit Loops at the thought of JJ being anything less than a loyal foot soldier to the cult in Columbus

I’m so sick of this storyline. Respectfully, I don’t give a **** about what J4 almost did 3 years ago. It’s history….time to move on.

Let’s go win this game with the guys that bought into Mario’s vision. The focus should be on this team exclusively. Time to shock the world.

I read a story that said his OV was the weekend of the infamous Ga Tech game where our head coach displayed a lack of understanding of basic math.

Should we start bets on how quickly he throws the upside down U during the game?

Dumb question from the reporter and I’m surprised that Jeremiah gave an even dumber answer.

OSU clearly didn’t prep him because the obvious answer would’ve been something like “I don’t deal in what if scenarios, we are focused on this game and trying to get another ring. Miami is a great team, they recruited me hard, looking forward to playing them”

Well J, you got one year of eligibility left so let’s make this **** happen. All jokes aside, can you imagine Smith and Baby Jesus together? The stuff of nightmares for every DC in college football. Would definitely go down as one of the most dynamic 1-2 punches at WR in CFB history.

I will accept Bailey as our QB next year if he is part of a package deal with Smith.
