2026 CA WR Chris Henry Jr. Is a Buckeye!!!

Look very much forward to hearing how Mr. Henry does during this workout. Hopefully our guys are bonding with him. Maybe only get him to team up with Jeremiah for a year (maybe two?), but that would be exceptional. With Sayin/Air/TSC flinging the ball, should be an airshow. Go Bucks!

NO. 1 OVERALL PROSPECT CHRIS HENRY JR. STILL “LOCKED IN” WITH OHIO STATE COMMITMENT DESPITE VISITING OTHER SCHOOLS​



147544_h.jpg


Although he is planning to visit two other schools this summer, Chris Henry Jr. says Ohio State has no reason to worry about the strength of his commitment.

The No. 1 overall prospect in the composite rankings for the 2026 recruiting class, Henry has been committed to Ohio State since last July, when he made an impromptu commitment to the Buckeyes after attending OSU’s SummerFest recruiting event. While attending the OT7 Championship earlier this month, however, Henry told reporters he planned to visit LSU and Oregon this summer.

Henry says he’s simply trying to enjoy the recruiting process while he can and that it would take a lot for another school to convince him to go anywhere but Ohio State.

“I'm always locked in,” Henry said of his Ohio State commitment. “I'm just still enjoying the process of just being a recruit, because this is only happening one time. So, you know, I'm still going to just enjoy it. The other schools, I tell them, like, 'Yeah, it's going to be really hard to try and get me to flip, because it's Ohio State.' This is where I want to be.”

A lot has changed since Henry committed to Ohio State 11 months ago.

Henry was an in-state prospect attending Withrow High School in Cincinnati at the time of his commitment, but he’s now a student at Southern California powerhouse Mater Dei, a school Ohio State has struggled to land top prospects from in the past. And while recruits in his class weren’t yet ranked by any major recruiting media outlets at the time of his commitment, Henry is now the top-ranked prospect in the class.

What hasn’t changed, though, is Henry’s excitement about playing for the Buckeyes. And he believes his ride to the top spot in the 2026 player rankings all started with earning his offer from Ohio State two years ago after camping at OSU as an incoming high school freshman.

“It's actually really crazy for me,” Henry said. “I just feel like ever since just even getting the offer from here, my life has just only skyrocketed and it's been great. So I just really appreciate this school and the coaches here.”
