I agree with you. In the years Ohio State didn’t make the playoffs almost no one opted out (only Denzel Ward I believe) and the team played just as hard as they did during the season. It’s a culture issues at schools and the programs with a lot of opt outs aren’t moving up the ladder.

You arent wrong
Guess which schools did not have players opting out and had players writing op-eds and protesting for a season before anyone's season even started.
Trevor Lawrence and Justin Fields got together. Blasted the internet with we want to play.
Alabama hasnt had opt outs
Is it really a surprise that people at the next level on the aggregate respect these people more? No it really isnt.
Michigan players just quit. LSU players just quit. ACC players all over just quit.
But Alabama, Ohio State, and Clemson players did not quit
What is irrelevant is everyone else pretending they have football culture.

Part of the reason Ohio State players didn’t opt out is because they need film showing matchups against future NFL talent. You get some of that with Michigan and Penn State. They’re the only big 10 teams outside of OSU with top 25 talent. You also get that in a bowl game. In the SEC you get that almost every week. There’s 10 SEC teams in the top 25 according to 247 team talent composite.
