I know where I want to go, and that&#8217;s Ohio State, so I really just don&#8217;t see no point in going anywhere else, honestly,\u201d Brown said.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tBrown has been committed to Ohio State since November 2024, but that hasn\u2019t stopped other schools from continuing to pursue him. He made trips to several other schools last year, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/rivals\/news\/ohio-state-wr-commit-jamier-brown-planning-pair-of-official-visits\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">told On3<\/a> at the Polynesian Bowl in January that he was planning to make official visits to Miami and Oregon in addition to Ohio State this summer.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tRecently, however, Brown told Ohio State coach Ryan Day that he was fully committed to the Buckeyes and no longer considering other offers.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\u201cMy recruitment\u2019s been shut down for a minute, I just haven\u2019t made it public,\u201d Brown said. \u201cMe and Coach Day had a conversation, so it just felt great shutting down my recruitment, knowing how bad I still wanted to be there, knowing how bad Coach Day still wants me to be there and the staff. And I just can&#8217;t wait to get up there and be great.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"pullquote full\">\n\t\u201cI know where I want to go, and that&#8217;s Ohio State, so I really just don&#8217;t see no point in going anywhere else.\u201d\u2013 Jamier Brown on shutting down his recruitment\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tOne factor that could have opened the door for other schools to flip Brown was the departure of former Ohio State offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach Brian Hartline to become the head coach at South Florida. But Brown says he\u2019s built a great relationship with new Ohio State wide receivers coach Cortez Hankton, solidifying his commitment to the Buckeyes.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\u201cWe&#8217;ve been connecting very well since he&#8217;s been here,\u201d Brown said. \u201cHe wants (success) bad for everybody that he coaches, and as great as he wants you to be, he wants to be great, too. So that&#8217;s what I like about him.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tBrown will play his senior season of high school football just about 25 miles north of Ohio State at Big Walnut High School in Sunbury, Ohio, where he transferred earlier this year after previously playing for Wayne High School in Huber Heights. The move closer to Columbus has made Brown feel even more connected to the Buckeyes, as he\u2019s been able to make more frequent trips to Ohio State.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tRanked as the No. 1 prospect from Ohio, No. 4 wide receiver and <a href=\"https:\/\/247sports.com\/player\/jamier-brown-46144180\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">No. 21 overall prospect<\/a> in the 2027 class, Brown is currently the only wide receiver committed to Ohio State in the rising senior class. Brown has talked to some of the other top receivers in the class about potentially joining him at Ohio State, including fellow five-stars <a href=\"https:\/\/247sports.com\/player\/monshun-sales-46147925\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Monshun Sales<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/247sports.com\/player\/eric-mcfarland-iii-46148083\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Eric McFarland III<\/a> and four-star Pennsylvania wideout <a href=\"https:\/\/247sports.com\/player\/khalil-taylor-46144955\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Khalil Taylor<\/a>, as well as 2028 five-star <a href=\"https:\/\/247sports.com\/player\/brysen-wright-46151659\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Brysen Wright<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tMuch like current Ohio State star Jeremiah Smith, however, Brown says he isn\u2019t much of a talker, preferring to keep his focus on just working hard. So he\u2019s glad to have his recruitment behind him and be able to just focus on football entering his final year of high school.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\u201cIt kind of depends on the day, but it does take a lot off my shoulders to just focus on one school and not talking to thousands of other schools,\u201d Brown said.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tBrown\u2019s ability to be one of the next star receivers at Ohio State was on full display at Sunday\u2019s camp, where he was among the day\u2019s top standouts with a dominant performance that included multiple touchdown catches in one-on-ones.\n<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\" xml:lang=\"en\">\n\t\tJamier Brown with a nice hands catch over coverage on a deep ball in one-on-ones <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/u4jdOpb3DR\" rel=\"nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/u4jdOpb3DR<\/a>\n\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\u2014 Dan Hope (@Dan_Hope) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Dan_Hope\/status\/2053525014389850401?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">May 10, 2026<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\" xml:lang=\"en\">\n\t\tJamier Brown turns a would-be pass breakup into a touchdown with a catch off the deflection. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/wQ9wRdC34u\" rel=\"nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/wQ9wRdC34u<\/a>\n\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\u2014 Dan Hope (@Dan_Hope) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Dan_Hope\/status\/2053530933630849450?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">May 10, 2026<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\n\tEven though Brown says he\u2019s shut down his recruitment, Ohio State only needs to look back at the recruitments of Smith and fellow five-star wide receiver Chris Henry Jr. to know it can\u2019t take Brown\u2019s commitment for granted. Smith was committed to Ohio State for more than two years and repeatedly reaffirmed his commitment publicly, yet the Buckeyes still had to fend off a late charge from Miami on signing day. Henry was also committed to Ohio State for more than two years and publicly announced he was shutting down his recruitment last April, yet the Buckeyes still had to fend off late charges from Oregon and Texas after Hartline\u2019s departure.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tNevertheless, Brown\u2019s decision to make no other official visits shows that he fully intends to become a Buckeye next year. And he\u2019s working hard to give himself a chance to become Ohio State\u2019s next star receiver.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\u201cI like to show everybody that I put work in, so that&#8217;s why I wanna be here (at Ohio State),\u201d Brown said. \u201cIf you can compete at Ohio State, you can compete anywhere.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jamier Brown says he\u2019s done entertaining interest from other schools.
