New Photo of Jeremiah Smith and Future Ohio State Star Playmaker Grabs Attention

Another Buckeyes fan had a similar reaction to another photo of Henry next to transfer portal tight end Max Klare. 

"Chris Henry Jr next to 6.4 240lb Max Klare," the fan wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

"Chris has to be pushing 6.7. He's gonna be a problem."

Other fans responded saying Henry likely appears a lot taller than Klare because of the angle of the camera. 

But Klare is listed at 6-foot-4. That means Henry is already taller than the former Purdue tight end as well.

With his massive frame, Henry earned the No. 2 wide receiver ranking on the 247Sports composite rankings for the 2026 recruiting class. Henry is also the No. 1 California prospect and No. 11 overall recruit in the class based on the same rankings.

Henry is the top recruit verbally committed to the Buckeyes in 2026. The program has also scored commitments from fellow four-star wideouts Kayden Dixon-Wyatt and Jaeden Ricketts along with three-star receiver Brock Boyd.

Henry and Dixon-Wyatt are high school teammates at Mater Dei in Santa, Ana, Calif.
