In addition to football, is a standout in Track and Field.<\/p>\n<p>On the gridiron, Porter was an immediate star. He burst onto the scene as a freshman and appeared on all of the major recruiting services as a future star.<\/p>\n<p>In his sophomore season, Porter hauled in 35 passes for 686 yards and 11 touchdowns. Last year, he had himself an incredible campaign. With just 48 catches, Porter amassed 1 066 yards and 16 touchdowns. He led his team to a state title with a seven-catch, 97-yard performance in a 24-14 win.<\/p>\n<p>Porter has credited all of his success to his coaches, especially head coach <strong>Vito Campanile<\/strong>. In an interview with <em>On3<\/em>, Porter said of his coaches, &#8220;They helped me a lot. I probably wouldn\u2019t be in the spot I am now without the coaches. They kept me focused on working hard, even with some success. I didn&#8217;t really think much about if I got this or I got that. I just kept working because no matter what, as long as I keep working, I&#8217;d see results.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The talented receiver was awarded the MaxPreps New Jersey Player of the Year last year.<\/p>\n<p>Now that the Buckeyes have two receivers in the class, it&#8217;s starting to take shape. Ohio State is still pursuing <strong>Dakorian Moore<\/strong>, the former LSU commit and top-rated receiver. Additionally, the Buckeyes have expert crystal balls for five-star <strong>Jamie Ffrench<\/strong> (Alabama decommit) and four-star <strong>Vernell Brown III<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_48932\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-48932\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-48932\" src=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/collegefootball\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/07\/USATSI_20972395_168400536_lowres-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"ohio state recruiting\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/collegefootball\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/07\/USATSI_20972395_168400536_lowres-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/collegefootball\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/07\/USATSI_20972395_168400536_lowres-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/collegefootball\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/07\/USATSI_20972395_168400536_lowres-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/collegefootball\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/07\/USATSI_20972395_168400536_lowres-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/collegefootball\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/07\/USATSI_20972395_168400536_lowres-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/collegefootball\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/07\/USATSI_20972395_168400536_lowres-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/collegefootball\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/07\/USATSI_20972395_168400536_lowres.jpg 1705w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-48932\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo courtesy: Adam Cairns-The Columbus Dispatch<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The top-rated class just got better.
