Angelo Smith, the younger brother of Ohio State star receiver Jeremiah Smith, will follow in his brother’s footsteps and play in Columbus as multiple outlets reported Sunday that the high school junior safety has committed to the Buckeyes.
Angelo Smith, a three-star recruit in many services including 247Sports, is a better defensive player than offensive, and projects to play in the secondary at Ohio State.
Angelo Smith is listed at 5-foot-10 and 170 pounds and attends Chaminade-Madonna Prep in Hollywood, Fla. — the same school Jeremiah attended.
The older Smith was the No. 1 recruit in the nation coming out of high school.
Jeremiah Smith turned in one of the greatest seasons by a freshman receiver in NCAA history in 2024. His 1,315 yards and 15 touchdowns set FBS freshman records while his 76 catches set the Ohio State mark for a freshman. He had five catches for 88 yards and a touchdown in the Buckeyes’ 34-23 win over Notre Dame in the College Football Playoff National Championship on Jan. 20.
Three weeks earlier, he grabbed seven balls for 187 yards and a pair of scores in Ohio State’s 41-21 dismantling of then-No. 1 Oregon in the Rose Bowl.
So far this season, Jeremiah Smith has 20 catches for 315 yards and three touchdowns for the top-ranked Buckeyes.
