Kojo Antwi has officially signed his Letter of Intent with the Buckeyes.
What does this addition do for Ohio State? Let’s break it down.

In his own words: “[Wide receivers coach Brian] Hartline is a very genuine guy. He’s all about details when he’s coaching, and that’s what I love about him. He was so real with me, straight up the whole time. I got to hang out with Emeka [Egbuka] and Jaxon Smith-Njigba the most, but the whole receiver room was cool. I had a chat with almost all of them. It’s so much about being a family there.” — Kojo Antwi after evaluating his visit and decision to commit to the Buckeyes
How did Antwi end up at Ohio State?
There is simply no destination more appealing to wide receivers right now than Ohio State, and Kojo Antwi didn’t want to miss out on everything the program had to offer.
The production of Brian Hartline’s group is off the charts. The development into NFL-caliber wideouts is growing even more undeniable by the year. And despite the long-held reputation of receivers as divas, the Ohio State position room has proven to be one of the tightest, most selfless units in the Woody Hayes Athletic Center year after year. Antwi had offers to go to any major program he wanted, just like every wide receiver the Buckeyes have signed over the last few years.
But when Ohio State made it crystal clear how much it wanted Antwi, that was enough to tip the scales and bring him north from Georgia.
