Olave is the sixth member of the 2018 class to lose his black stripe, following Taron Vincent and Brian Snead who both shed their stripes on Saturday.
A three-star receiver out of Mission Hills, California, Olave was one of the lowest-rated and final pieces of the 2018 class, committing to Ohio State Jan. 28, 2018, just a few days before the February signing day.
