It is commonly known that Ohio State is consistently one of the top College Football teams in the nation, as well as having some of the best recruiting classes each year. To state you are the best at a certain position at that program will turn many heads.
And that is exactly what Marvin Harrison Jr. proudly did.
The former Ohio State receiver was asked by members of The Trenches Show where he would place himself amongst the best receivers Ohio State has to offer. Not only did Harrison believe he was top five, he said he was "the best" out of all of them.

During his 2023 season with the Buckeyes, Harrison put up over 1,200 yards, 67 receptions, and 14 touchdowns. Such numbers granted him the Biletnikoff top collegiate receiver award, becoming the second Buckeye to achieve such an honor.
Not only that, Harrison was named the 2023 Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year, Big Ten Receiver of the Year, and First Team All-Big Ten.
The resume for Marvin Harrison Jr. is definitely first-class, so it is no wonder why Harrison has so much confidence in himself. But what makes these awards and statistics even more staggering is the WR room Harrison was a part of. Chris Olave (Saints), Garrett Wilson (Jets), Jaxon Smith-Njigba (Seahawks), and Emeka Egbuka (third best pass-catcher for 2024) all came from Ohio State.
Ohio State’s 2021 WR room was CRAZY:

If Harrison continues to have that same confidence in the NFL, the league is in for some trouble.
