It looks like the rich are going to keep getting richer in college football.
Over the last few years, Ohio State has repeatedly had some of the best groups of pass catchers in the nation.
The Buckeyes already landed one 5-star receiver for their Class of 2024 when they got a commitment from Jeremiah Smith back in December.
Now he’ll have another 5-star lined up alongside him when he gets to Columbus.
Today, On3 Sports’ Hayes Fawcett revealed that 5-star wide receiver Mylan Graham has also committed to Ohio State.
BREAKING: Five-Star WR Mylan Graham tells me he has Committed to Ohio State!
The 6’1 180 WR from New Haven, IN chose the Buckeyes over Tennessee, Alabama, and Purdue.

When asked about why he chose the Buckeyes, Graham said, “I just feel like they are the program I can trust the most with where I’m trying to get to (NFL 1st round), which Coach Hartline I kinda felt like it was a no brainer with the track record and development ever since he’s got to Ohio state”
He’s absolutely right about Hartline. In his first year as the Buckeyes’ wide receivers coach, he coached Parris Campbell and Terry McLaurin. Both were selected in the first 3 rounds of the following year’s draft.
Last year’s draft went even better for Ohio State receivers. Garrett Wilson and Chris Olave were both selected in the first 11 picks of the 2022 NFL Draft. Wilson went on to win the Rookie o the Year.
With this latest commitment, the Buckeyes now have the 5th ranked recruiting class for 2024.
The Ohio State Buckeyes still have Marvin Harrison Jr on their roster for another year and now it looks like they’ll have some strong replacements ready when he heads to the draft next year.
