This is a big get for the Buckeyes as they have added another top recruit for their 2025 class. Brown is currently the sixth-best player in his home state (Florida) and the sixth-best wide receiver recruit in the nation, per 247Sports composite rankings.
He’s also the No. 39 overall recruit, regardless of position.
The Buckeyes currently have the second-best 2025 recruiting class in the country, per 247Sports. They only trail the Notre Dame Fighting Irish for first.
They have three five-star recruits in the class and now have 10 four-star recruits with Brown’s commitment.
Ryan Day continues to pick up major wins on the recruiting trail but he’s also focused on picking up major wins on the field.
The Buckeyes haven’t won a Big Ten championship since the 2020 season and have lost to the Michigan Wolverines three seasons in a row.
They’ll look to change both of those things this season since they have almost all of their top players returning from last year.
