2028 FL WR Brysen Wright (Verbal Offer)

Per 11w poster:
Brysen Wright’s father with an encouraging interview today saying they’re looking for proof of concept over anything else, a school who’s shown they can handle and develop a player of his caliber. A school that has a plan for his son and puts WRs high in the draft.

Said Ohio State and Miami are currently standing out because they are the schools that have been doing that.

Said NIL is the least of their family’s concern because Wright is the best player in the class so every school will be around the same number NIL wise. They’re looking for relationships, development and a place where he will be held accountable and be better than the last time he saw him.
A quote that stood out to me, his dad said they have a window to commit but it won’t be too soon or too late, he said his son really wants to win a championship so they want to see how the season goes for teams because a team can go 12-0 one year and 4-8 the next year.

To me that quote is certainly directed at Miami who made the playoffs for the first time in the playoff era.

Five-star recruit’s father revealed an issue Ohio State football is having to work through in its pursuit of the elite playmaker

Ohio State has a chance to double up on five-star wideouts after landing Jett Harrison for 2028. The latest intel shows they have an uphill climb to work through.

Ohio State has work to do with a five-star wideout

Losing Brian Hartline came with its worries for the Buckeyes, and they have ground to make up with another elite wide receiver due to it.

Ohio State has to grow its relationship with five-star Mandarin (FL) WR Brysen Wright. Harrison is rated the No. 2 wideout in the class and Wright is the No. 1. Getting both would be very tough in today’s era of recruiting with NIL, but not totally impossible.

The Buckeyes are in the mix for the 6-foot-3, 215-pound wideout, but they have to work on the relationship between him and Hankton quickly.

“The Florida schools, Miami, Florida, do a good job,” Wright’s father, Colby, said via Rivals. “Texas has done a good job. Ohio State, we have to reestablish stuff there with (Brian) Hartline being gone, but they’ve been communicating.”

It sounds like the Buckeyes have been working on rebuilding the relationship there since Hartline’s exit. Hankton has his work cut out for him with a player who would be a Day 1 contributor in Ohio State’s offense in 2028.

The Florida schools are the favorites with the Gators and Hurricanes, but the Buckeyes are still right there lurking. Wright caught 46 passes for 983 yards and 10 touchdowns during his sophomore year of high school. He’s a player who looks a lot older physically and looks college-ready today.

Wright’s father is open that the relationship needs to grow with Ohio State again. The next six months will be key and getting Wright on campus would be huge for the Buckeyes. We’ll see.

No way do I see Wright and Harrison in the same class. And regardless what his father says, NIL will be a big factor. At this point, unless I know a parent was a former pro, or is a C suite exec, NIL will always be a big deal with any high 4 or 5star recruit
