Film Study: Jaxon Smith-Njigba has every trait of an elite receiver

Ohio State receivers coach Brian Hartline landed three top-50 recruits this week, and added to his reputation as an elite recruiter. Over the first four seasons Hartline has spent with the Buckeyes, the talent at wide receiver has improved each year.

The Buckeyes have had a long list of talented receivers lately, most notably Terry McLaurin, Chris Olave, and Garrett Wilson. The latter two in Olave and Wilson were back-to-back-to-back first round picks with another former Buckeye in Jameson Williams. Now entering his fifth season with Ohio State, Hartline’s room is as talented as it has ever been on paper.
