COLUMBUS — Buckeyes wide receivers coach Brian Hartline has landed another talented pass catcher from the state of California.

Four-star Inglewood (Calif) Mater Dei wide receiver Kayden Dixon-Wyatt has committed to Ohio State. The 6-foot-1, 180-pound Dixon-Wyatt chose Ohio State over Oregon and USC.

Mater Dei wide receiver Chris Henry Jr., four-star Southlake Carroll (Texas) wide receiver Brock Boyd, three-star Jacksonville (Fla.) The Bolles School tight end Corbyn Fordham and three-star Phoenix (Ariz.) Sandra Day O’Conner offensive lineman Tucker Smith on offense. Four-star Baton Rouge (La.) Catholic safety Blaine Bradford and four-star Jacksonville (Fla.) The Bolles School safety Simeon Caldwell on defense.

The Buckeyes also have a talented in-state recruiting class that features four-star Akron (Ohio) Archbishop Hoban offensive lineman Sam Greer, four-star Avon Lake (Ohio) interior offensive lineman Max Riley, four-star Avon (Ohio) cornerback Jakob Weatherspoon, four-star Lewis Center (Ohio) Olentangy linebacker CJ Sanna and four-star Pataskala (Ohio) Watkins Memorial wide receiver Jaeden Ricketts.
