Ohio State CB Shaun Wade, potential top-10 pick in 2021, opts out of senior season

8:59 AM ET Ohio State cornerback Shaun Wade announced Monday that he is opting out of his senior season to prepare for the NFL draft. With the uncertainty of when a Big Ten season will be played, Wade has decided to forgo his remaining year of eligibility and move on to the next level. A projected starter and preseason All-American, Wade was listed as the No. 7 prospect on the Big Board of ESPN’s Mel Kiper Jr. earlier this month. He had been projected as an early-round pick in the 2020 NFL draft but decided to return to the Buckeyes for one more season. “This has been an extremely difficult decision to make, but I know it’s the right decision for me,” Wade said in a video on Twitter. “… I am forever grateful to Buckeye Nation and looking forward to the next chapter.” Buckeye For Life ? pic.twitter.com/b0iP6Rqo4i —…
