An Ohio State wide receiver has got in on the action with stripe shedding season hitting fall camp.

The latest player to shed his black stripe is Kaleb Brown, a 4-star receiver via the 2022 recruiting class. Brown has quickly impressed, shedding his stripe despite enrolling with the program in June.

According to the 247 Sports Composite Rankings, the 5-foot-10 Brown was listed as the No. 13 WR nationally and the 78th player in the country for the class of 2022. Brown landed with the Buckeyes over a host of Power 5 offers across the country.

Brown is just the latest Buckeye to shed his stripe and become a full member of the team. Zak Herbstreit – a walk-on tight end and the son of former Buckeye and ESPN personality Kirk Herbstreit – also shed his stripe following Wednesday’s practice.
