Texas is in the early lead for 2024 five-star WR Micah Hudson

Texas sits in good shape for five-star WR Micah Hudson.

Five-star Micah Hudson is one of the most dynamic playmakers in the class of 2024.

247Sports composite rankings list Hudson as the No. 2 wide receiver and No. 7 overall player in the nation. The five-star has 35 offers from some of the top programs in college football.

Hudson is one of the most skilled high school pass catchers in the 2024 cycle. He possesses great hands and sharp route-running ability that translates well to the next level.

He enjoyed one of the most productive junior seasons in Texas High School Football, hauling in 65 passes for 1,198 yards and 14 touchdowns, earning district MVP honors in the process.

Ohio State, Texas and Texas Tech are three schools in heavy pursuit of Hudson so far. He made it down to Austin for a recent visit to Texas’ junior day event in January.

The On3 Sports recruiting prediction machine has Texas in the early lead for Hudson.

Ohio State picks up crystal ball prediction for the nation’s top wide receiver

Could Ohio State be closing in on the nation’s top wide receiver?

After watching both Chris Olave and Garrett Wilson go in the first round of the 2022 NFL draft, it is a great recruiting tool for head coach Ryan Day.

In the next draft, the team is also expected to see Jaxson Smith-Njigba go relatively early on in the draft. He will likely battle it out with Pittsburgh’s Jordan Addison and LSU’s Kayshon Boutte for the distinction of WR1.

Day and the Ohio State staff could be using that pitch for the top wide receiver in the 2023 cycle. Former Oklahoma commit Brandon Inniss received his first crystal ball prediction to the Buckeyes when most have him projected to the USC Trojans and Lincoln Riley.

247Sports director of football recruiting Steve Wiltfong submitted the projection on Tuesday.

Still, a long way to go until the early signing period in December, but players such as the wide receivers and new quarterback Devin Brown could help their efforts. Currently, the Buckeyes have the No. 6 overall class according to the composite team rankings from 247Sports.

Inniss would be the second wide receiver to commit to the class, should he make that decision. Fellow Florida wide receiver Bryson Rodgers committed to the 2023 class on Apr. 17.

The Buckeyes also picked up another crystal ball prediction for Austin Siereveld, who is slated to announce his commitment on Wednesday. He is down to Ohio State, the Alabama Crimson Tide, and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
