Even after securing commitments from Jeremiah Smith and Mylan Graham in the 2024 class, Brian Hartline was not finished building his wide receiver room.
The Ohio State offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach added another receiver to the Buckeyes' class Sunday as four-star St. Louis wide receiver Jeremiah McClellan announced his commitment to Ohio State, picking the Buckeyes over Missouri and Oregon
McClellan, standing at 6 feet, 190 pounds, is the No. 18 wide receiver and No. 108 player in the 2024 class according to 247Sports' composite rankings.
With McClellan, Hartline has secured commitments from 17 top-20 wide receivers since becoming Ohio State's wide receivers coach in 2018.
