2024 NFL Draft: Ohio State WR Marvin Harrison Jr., No. 1 ranked prospect, declares after prolific career
Ohio State star receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. has declared for the 2024 NFL Draft after a prolific career with the Buckeyes, the last two years of which he led the team. Harrison is considered the No. 1 overall player in the 2024 CBS Sports NFL Draft Prospect Rankings after becoming the first player in Ohio State history with back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons.
Harrison played sparingly as a freshman in 2021 after ranking as a four-star prospect, but his breakout performance in a Rose Bowl win over Utah that season foreshadowed big things to come. The son of Pro Football Hall of Famer Marvin Harrison led the Buckeyes in receiving each of the past two seasons and won the 2023 Biletnikoff Award given to college football’s top receiver.
“To Buckeye Nation, the love I received from you all in the Shoe and on the road will be moments I cherish forever, and I hope I left lasting memories for you on the field,” Harrison wrote. “I appreiate the support these past three years. Buckeye for life.”
In a long line of elite receivers to come from Ohio State under coach Ryan Day and offensive coordinator Brian Hartline, Harrison stacked up with the best, earning Heisman Trophy finalist honors this season while tying the school record for most 100-yard receiving games in a career with 14. He ends his college career with 155 receptions for 2,613 yards and 31 touchdowns.
Harrison’s draft stock
As the top-ranked prospect in the draft class, according to CBS Sports, Harrison’s decision is no surprise. Whether or not Harrison actually ends up going No. 1 overall is another matter. Harrison is considered a consensus top-five pick by our CBS Sports draft experts. Ryan Wilson has him going No. 2 after a trade to the Chicago Bears. Josh Edwards has Harrison going No. 3 to the New England Patriots, while Chris Trapasso slots Harrison at No. 4, teaming up with Kyler Murray on the Arizona Cardinals.
At 6-foot-4 and 205 pounds, Harrison has both excellent size and great speed to go with a proven set of hands and an elite pedigree. His father made eight Pro Bowls and caught 128 touchdown passes during a 13-year career spent entirely with the Indianapolis Colts. Given his physical tools and dominance at the college level, the younger Harrison is expected to become an elite pro in his own right.
Impact on School
With Harrison’s announcement, Ohio State will be without two of its top three wide receivers for next season after Julian Fleming entered the transfer portal following the regular season. But the Buckeyes knew this was likely coming and have continued to recruit exceedingly well at the position. Ohio State signed three of the top 10 receivers in the 2023 recruiting class and two of the top 10 receivers in the 2024 class. Thus, the Buckeyes should still boast a supremely talented receiving corps next season
Additionally, since Emeka Egbuka is returning for his fourth season, meaning the Buckeyes will have a proven star at the position entering 2024. Egbuka has made 118 career grabs for 1,794 yards and 14 touchdowns and is fully capable of serving as a No. 1 target.

Ryan Day will have some very familiar competition in the Big 10 soon.
The son of the Ohio State football coach, R.J. Day, announced his commitment to Northwestern for the Class of 2027 on Sunday.
Northwestern plays in the same conference as Ohio State and the schools will face each other.
R.J. Day, a 6-foot-1, 205-pound quarterback from — not surprisingly — Columbus, Ohio, has started for three years at St. Francis DeSales HS as he heads towards his senior season.
According to reports, the younger Day had other offers from Purdue, Syracuse, Cincinnati and South Florida, as well as others.
Northwestern has eight quarterbacks on head coach David Braun’s roster.
And the offensive coordinator for the Wildcats is Chip Kelly, who served in the same role for Ryan Day at Ohio State when the Buckeyes won the title in 2024.
Kelly, the former head coach at UCLA and Oregon, was also the offensive coordinator at New Hampshire when Ryan Day was the team captain from 1998-2001.
Most recently, Kelly was the OC with the Las Vegas Raiders before he took the job with Northwestern.
“It’s really surreal when you think about the relationships that we’ve had with those two as a family over the years,” R.J. Day told ESPN earlier this month. “Coach Kelly coached my dad in college, so that adds another layer to it.”
Cincinnati Reds legend and well-known gambler Pete Rose was possibly more than just curious about Ohio State football’s 2012 season when he texted Buckeyes coach Urban Meyer.
Appearing on “The Triple Option” show with Alabama running back Mark Ingram May 6, Meyer told a story about his relationship with Rose.
After OSU hired Meyer, the Reds asked him to throw out the first pitch at a game. Meyer threw to his son, Nathan, and walked into the dugout, where Rose, MLB’s all-time hit leader, was waiting to greet him.
“I couldn’t get enough talking about ‘Big Red Machine,’ and he wanted to talk college football,” Meyer said on the podcast, explaining how the two spoke for hours and exchanged numbers.
Meyer said that during his first season, Rose texted him early on. He wanted information about the team, like news on Braxton Miller’s shoulder injury.
“I told that to someone, and they said, ‘You’re an idiot. Do you know he’s trying to get information from you for gambling, and you could get in trouble?’ ” Meyer said.

Though Meyer asserted that he never disclosed much, he started to steer the conversations clear of college football after he realized Rose potentially wanted information for gambling.
The two had another conversation in Las Vegas, where Rose told Meyer he gambled daily after retiring.
Rose was banned from baseball for betting on the sport, something he admitted to in his 2004 autobiography. Rose was reinstated in 2025 and so is considered eligible for the Hall of Fame.
Still baseball’s most prolific hitter (4,256 hits), Rose died in 2024.
