Jaxon Smith-Njigba Makes Sure No One Forgets His Name with Performance at The Opening Finals

Jaxon Smith-Njigba is making sure no one forgets who he is.

The No. 89 overall prospect in the 2020 class has been committed to Ohio State since Nov. 4, but as No. 1 wideout Julian Fleming and No. 14 wideout Gee Scott Jr. – who has been committed to Ohio State since Dec. 25 – continue to burst onto the scene as potential eventual All-Americans and the Mookie Cooper hype continues to become more of a reality, Smith-Njigba’s name has become an ingrained part of the 2020 class.
