Marvin Harrison Jr. is now one step away from becoming a unanimous All-American for the second year in a row.

The Ohio State wide receiver made the fourth of five All-American teams that determine unanimous and consensus All-American honors as he was named a first-team All-American by Sporting News on Wednesday.

Harrison will be a unanimous All-American if he is named a first-team All-American by the American Football Coaches Association. He would become just the fifth two-time unanimous All-American in Ohio State history, joining offensive tackle Orlando Pace, running back Archie Griffin, fullback Bob Ferguson and running back Howard “Hopalong” Cassady.

In addition to the litany of All-American teams he’s made, Harrison also won the Biletnikoff Award as college football’s best receiver this season, was named the Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year and Big Ten Receiver of the Year and finished fourth in voting for the Heisman Trophy.

Harrison was the only Buckeye named as an All-American by Sporting News. With just one major All-American team left to be revealed, Harrison remains the only Ohio State player to earn first-team All-American honors for 2023.
