Ohio State's reputation for developing top wide receivers continues to flourish, with the team earning more than $527 million in contracts from former Buckeyes in the past two years alone. This includes Chris Olave, who recently re-signed with the New Orleans Saints on a four-year, $132 million deal. Five-star wide receiver Jamier Brown and Jett Harrison are expected to commit to Ohio State in the next two recruiting classes.
The success of the program is highlighted by the presence of first-round picks in the last five NFL Drafts and another projected pick in 2027. Currently, Ohio State boasts a strong group of wide receivers in its program, with Jeremiah Smith, Chris Henry Jr., Brandon Inniss, Kyle Parker, Devin McCuin, Brock Boyd, and Jerquaden Guilford leading the way.
The program's reputation as a wide receiver factory is set to continue as promising prospects, including four-star 2028 wideout Hayden Koo, remain interested in joining the Buckeyes.
Koo, ranked as the No. 21 wide receiver in the country and No. 147 overall by 247Sports, hails from California and showcased his talent during a recent recruiting camp, attracting offers from Ohio State, Michigan, and USC. Koo expressed excitement over Ohio State's offer, ranking the team among his top 12 schools alongside Michigan, Oregon, USC, and Washington. The Buckeyes currently have three commitments in their 2028 class, including Harrison, Jameer Whyce, and Elijah Newman-Hall, all ranked in the top-80 nationally.
