Marvin Harrison Jr. is without a doubt one of the top wide receivers in Ohio State football history. In just two seasons as a starter, Marv put on a show just about every week with highlight-reel catches and record-setting performances. He was a Heisman finalist and the Biletnikoff Award recipient, recognized as the nation’s best receiver in 2023, and would go on to be the No. 4 overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft. Now, another Harrison could be on his way to Columbus.
Jett Harrison, the younger brother of the former Buckeye standout, has been making a name for himself. Instead of Marvin’s little brother, Jett has worked his way up the 2028 recruiting rankings and is listed as the No. 4 overall prospect in the class and No. 2 receiver according to 247Sports composite rankings. If you remember, Marv was not a highly touted prospect, coming in as the No. 21-ranked receiver.
Ohio State extended a scholarship offer to Jett at the end of his freshman year. While there is still a long way to go in his recruitment, recruiting expert Steve Wiltfong feels confident enough to give a crystal ball prediction in favor of the Buckeyes.

Obviously, there are two more years of high school football to play, so we don’t want to get too far ahead of ourselves, but this would be another huge catch for Ryan Day. The Harrison brothers, of course, are the sons of NFL Hall of Famer Marvin Harrison Sr. The pedigree is there, and if Marv’s success in Scarlet and Gray is any indication, Ohio State could be in line for another generational talent.
